The drop block has been deprecated for quite some time. This patch series removes support for parsing it and all the related machinery that made drop work.
As a side feature of all this, I also added the ability to annote fields in structs. This allows comments to be properly associated with an individual field. However, I didn't update `rustdoc` to integrate these comment blocks into the documentation it generates.
prec.rs no longer had much to do with precedence; the token->binop
function fits better in token.rs, and the one-liner defining the
precedence of 'as' can go next to the other precedence stuff in
ast_util.rs
Macro scope is now delimited by function, block, and module boundaries,
except for modules that are marked with #[macro_escape], which allows
macros to escape.

Apply deriving_eq to the data structures in ast.rs, and get rid of the custom definitions of eq that were everywhere. resulting ast.rs is about 400 lines shorter.
Also: add a few test cases and a bunch of comments.
Also: change ast_ty_to_ty_cache to use node ids rather than ast::ty's. I believe this was a suggestion related to my changes, and it appears to pass all tests.
Also: tiny doc fix, remove references to crate keywords.
Note that the replaced definition of equality on tokens
contains a *huge* shortcut on INTERPOLATED tokens (those
that contain ASTs), whereby any two INTERPOLATED tokens
are considered equal. This seems like a really broken
notion of equality, but it appears that the existing
test cases and the compiler don't depend on it. Niko
noticed this, BTW.
Replace long definition of Eq on tokens and binops

LinearMap is quite a bit faster, and is fully owned/sendable without
requiring copies. The older std::map also doesn't use explicit self and
relies on mutable fields.
