native, rustuv: Fix spawning with empty args

There was a bug in both libnative and libuv which prevented child processes from
being spawned correctly on windows when one of the arguments was an empty
string. The libuv bug has since been fixed upstream, and the libnative bug was
fixed as part of this commit.

When updating libuv, this also includes a fix for #15149.

Closes #15149
Closes #16272
make rustdoc more responsive

* move some sidebar contents to a title bar when small
* inline description toggle when small
* make out-of-band and in-band content share space, rather than float and clash
* compress wording of out-of-band content to avoid line-wrap as much as possible

rustc: gensym the module names for --test to avoid introducing user-accessible names.

This requires avoiding `quote_...!` for constructing the parts of the
__test module, since that stringifies and reinterns the idents, losing
the special gensym'd nature of them. (#15962.)
Use system rustc if configured with --enable-local-rust

This commit makes the configuration system autodetect a rustc that
is already installed and use that instead of downloading a snapshot.
fix grammar in Vec.retain's doc comment
Rename `Share` to `Sync`

This leaves the `Share` trait at `std::kinds` via a `#[deprecated]` `pub use`
statement, but the `NoShare` struct is no longer part of `std::kinds::marker`
due to #12660 (the build cannot bootstrap otherwise).

All code referencing the `Share` trait should now reference the `Sync` trait,
and all code referencing the `NoShare` type should now reference the `NoSync`
type. The functionality and meaning of this trait have not changed, only the
naming.

enable PIE by default on Linux for full ASLR

Rust already builds all code as position independent by default, so the
linker can be told to build a position independent executable if it's
not disabled with `-C relocation-model=dynamic-no-pic`. Position
independent code does have a significant cost on i686 (not on x86_64 or
ARM) but there's no significant cost to linking code that's already
position independent as a position independent executable.

Address space layout randomization makes exploiting vulnerabilities much
more difficult by providing a statistical defence against an attempt to
find or modify existing code / data. Without ASLR, it's trivial to use a
vulnerability to take over control of the process via return-oriented
programming.

Rust code can be used for return-oriented programming whether it is safe
or unsafe, so even a fully safe application needs to be built as a
position independent executable to defend against vulnerabilities in
unsafe blocks or C libraries.

Sample program:

    extern crate libc;

    use std::mem;

    static mut global: u32 = 5;
    static constant: u32 = 5;
    fn foo() {}

    fn main() {
        let local = 5;
        println!("stack: {}, global: {}, constant: {}, fn: {}, lib fn: {}",
                 &local as *const u32,
                 unsafe { &global as *const u32 },
                 &constant as *const u32,
                 unsafe { mem::transmute::<_, *const ()>(foo) },
                 unsafe { mem::transmute::<_, *const ()>(libc::mprotect) });
    }

This may also be necessary on other platforms, but I can only test on
Linux right now. Note that GDB gained support for debugging position
independent executables in version 7.1 (March 2010).
