// Converts a def-id that appears in a type.  The correct
// translation will depend on what kind of def-id this is.
// This is a subtle point: type definitions are not
// inlined into the current crate, so if the def-id names
// a nominal type or type alias, then it should be
// translated to refer to the source crate.
//
// However, *type parameters* are cloned along with the function
// they are attached to.  So we should translate those def-ids
// to refer to the new, cloned copy of the type parameter.
// We only see references to free type parameters in the body of
// an inlined function. In such cases, we need the def-id to
// be a local id so that the TypeContents code is able to lookup
// the relevant info in the ty_param_defs table.
//
// *Region parameters*, unfortunately, are another kettle of fish.
// In such cases, def_id's can appear in types to distinguish
// shadowed bound regions and so forth. It doesn't actually
// matter so much what we do to these, since regions are erased
// at trans time, but it's good to keep them consistent just in
// case. We translate them with `tr_def_id()` which will map
// the crate numbers back to the original source crate.
//
// Scopes will end up as being totally bogus. This can actually
// be fixed though.
//
// Unboxed closures are cloned along with the function being
// inlined, and all side tables use interned node IDs, so we
// translate their def IDs accordingly.
//
// It'd be really nice to refactor the type repr to not include
// def-ids so that all these distinctions were unnecessary.
