This completes the last stage of the renaming of the comparison hierarchy of
traits. This change renames TotalEq to Eq and TotalOrd to Ord.
In the future the new Eq/Ord will be filled out with their appropriate methods,
but for now this change is purely a renaming change.

This commit adds support in rustdoc to recognize the `#[doc(primitive = "foo")]`
attribute. This attribute indicates that the current module is the "owner" of
the primitive type `foo`. For rustdoc, this means that the doc-comment for the
module is the doc-comment for the primitive type, plus a signal to all
downstream crates that hyperlinks for primitive types will be directed at the
crate containing the `#[doc]` directive.
Additionally, rustdoc will favor crates closest to the one being documented
which "implements the primitive type". For example, documentation of libcore
links to libcore for primitive types, but documentation for libstd and beyond
all links to libstd for primitive types.
This change involves no compiler modifications, it is purely a rustdoc change.
The landing pages for the primitive types primarily serve to show a list of
implemented traits for the primitive type itself.
The primitive types documented includes both strings and slices in a semi-ad-hoc
way, but in a way that should provide at least somewhat meaningful
documentation.

This is part of the ongoing renaming of the equality traits. See #12517 for more
details. All code using Eq/Ord will temporarily need to move to Partial{Eq,Ord}
or the Total{Eq,Ord} traits. The Total traits will soon be renamed to {Eq,Ord}.

A number of functions/methods have been moved or renamed to align
better with rust standard conventions.
std::reflect::MovePtrAdaptor => MovePtrAdaptor::new
debug::reflect::MovePtrAdaptor => MovePtrAdaptor::new
std::repr::ReprVisitor => ReprVisitor::new
debug::repr::ReprVisitor => ReprVisitor::new
rustuv::homing::HomingIO.go_to_IO_home => go_to_io_home

This commit shuffles around some of the `rand` code, along with some
reorganization. The new state of the world is as follows:
* The librand crate now only depends on libcore. This interface is experimental.
* The standard library has a new module, `std::rand`. This interface will
eventually become stable.
Unfortunately, this entailed more of a breaking change than just shuffling some
names around. The following breaking changes were made to the rand library:
* Rng::gen_vec() was removed. This has been replaced with Rng::gen_iter() which
will return an infinite stream of random values. Previous behavior can be
regained with `rng.gen_iter().take(n).collect()`
* Rng::gen_ascii_str() was removed. This has been replaced with
Rng::gen_ascii_chars() which will return an infinite stream of random ascii
characters. Similarly to gen_iter(), previous behavior can be emulated with
`rng.gen_ascii_chars().take(n).collect()`
* {IsaacRng, Isaac64Rng, XorShiftRng}::new() have all been removed. These all
relied on being able to use an OSRng for seeding, but this is no longer
available in librand (where these types are defined). To retain the same
functionality, these types now implement the `Rand` trait so they can be
generated with a random seed from another random number generator. This allows
the stdlib to use an OSRng to create seeded instances of these RNGs.
* Rand implementations for `Box<T>` and `@T` were removed. These seemed to be
pretty rare in the codebase, and it allows for libcore to not depend on
liballoc. Additionally, other pointer types like Rc<T> and Arc<T> were not
supported. If this is undesirable, librand can depend on liballoc and regain
these implementations.
* The WeightedChoice structure is no longer built with a `Vec<Weighted<T>>`,
but rather a `&mut [Weighted<T>]`. This means that the WeightedChoice
structure now has a lifetime associated with it.

This is a transitionary step towards completing #12517. This change modifies the
compiler to accept Partial{Ord,Eq} as deriving modes which will currently expand
to implementations of PartialOrd and PartialEq (synonyms for Eq/Ord).
After a snapshot, all of deriving(Eq, Ord) will be removed, and after a snapshot
of that, TotalEq/TotalOrd will be renamed to Eq/Ord.
This is an attempt of fixing #12925.
This PR moves almost all trait implementations for primitive types ((), bool, char, i*, u*, f*) near trait definitions. Only Float trait implementations weren't moved because they heavily rely on constants defined in f32.rs and f64.rs.
Some trait implementations had cfg(not(test)) attribute. I suspect it's because of issue 2912.
Still, someone who knows the problem better should probably check this code.

This commit moves reflection (as well as the {:?} format modifier) to a new
libdebug crate, all of which is marked experimental.
This is a breaking change because it now requires the debug crate to be
explicitly linked if the :? format qualifier is used. This means that any code
using this feature will have to add `extern crate debug;` to the top of the
crate. Any code relying on reflection will also need to do this.
Closes#12019

Paper over privacy issues with Deref by changing field names.
Types that implement Deref can cause weird error messages due to their
private fields conflicting with a field of the type they deref to, e.g.,
previously
struct Foo { x: int }
let a: Arc<Foo> = ...;
println!("{}", a.x);
would complain the the `x` field of `Arc` was private (since Arc has a
private field called `x`) rather than just ignoring it.
This patch doesn't fix that issue, but does mean one would have to write
`a._ptr` to hit the same error message, which seems far less
common. (This patch `_`-prefixes all private fields of
`Deref`-implementing types.)

The span on a inner doc-comment would point to the next token, e.g. the span for the `a` line points to the `b` line, and the span of `b` points to the `fn`.

//! b
fn bar() {}
