auto merge of #19466 : nikomatsakis/rust/recursion-limit, r=eddyb
This is particularly important for deeply nested types, which generate deeply nested impls. This is a fix for #19318. It's possible we could also improve this particular case not to increment the recursion count, but it's worth being able to adjust the recursion limit anyhow.
* The tests on Haskell were done using the [json](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/json) package.
* The error message printed by Go was: `cannot unmarshal number 1.0 into Go value of type int`
As you see, there is no uniform behavior. Every implementation follows its own principle. So I think it is reasonable to find a desirable set of behaviors for Rust.
Firstly, every implementation except the one for JavaScript is capable of handling `i64` values. It is even practical, because [Twitter API uses an i64 number to represent a tweet ID](https://dev.twitter.com/overview/api/twitter-ids-json-and-snowflake), although it is recommended to use the string version of the ID.
Secondly, looking into the Go's behavior, implicit type conversion is not allowed in their decoder. If the user expects an integer value to follow, decoding a float value will raise an error. This behavior is desirable in Rust, because we are pleased to follow the principles of strong typing.
Thirdly, Python's JSON module forces a decimal point to be printed even if the fractional part does not exist. This eases the distinction of a float value from an integer value in JSON, because by the spec there is only one type to represent numbers, `Number`.
So, I suggest the following three breaking changes:
1. Remove float preprocessing in serialize::json::Encoder
`serialize::json::Encoder` currently uses `f64` to emit any integral type. This is possibly due to the behavior of JavaScript, which uses `f64` to represent any numeric value.
This leads to a problem that only the integers in the range of [-2^53+1, 2^53-1] can be encoded. Therefore, `i64` and `u64` cannot be used reliably in the current implementation.
[RFC 7159](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7159) suggests that good interoperability can be achieved if the range is respected by implementations. However, it also says that implementations are allowed to set the range of number accepted. And it seems that the JSON encoders outside of the JavaScript world usually make use of `i64` values.
This commit removes the float preprocessing done in the `emit_*` methods. It also increases performance, because transforming `f64` into String costs more than that of an integral type.
Fixes #18319
2. Do not coerce to integer when decoding a float value
When an integral value is expected by the user but a fractional value is found, the current implementation uses `std::num::cast()` to coerce to an integer type, losing the fractional part. This behavior is not desirable because the number loses precision without notice.
This commit makes it raise `ExpectedError` when such a situation arises.
3. Always use a decimal point when emitting a float value
JSON doesn't distinguish between integer and float. They are just numbers. Also, in the current implementation, a fractional number without the fractional part is encoded without a decimal point.
Thereforce, when the value is decoded, it is first rendered as `Json`, either `I64` or `U64`. This reduces type safety, because while the original intention was to cast the value to float, it can also be casted to integer.
As a workaround of this problem, this commit makes the encoder always emit a decimal point even if it is not necessary. If the fractional part of a float number is zero, ".0" is padded to the end of the result.

librustc: Make `Copy` opt-in.
This change makes the compiler no longer infer whether types (structures
and enumerations) implement the `Copy` trait (and thus are implicitly
copyable). Rather, you must implement `Copy` yourself via `impl Copy for
MyType {}`.
A new warning has been added, `missing_copy_implementations`, to warn
you if a non-generic public type has been added that could have
implemented `Copy` but didn't.
For convenience, you may *temporarily* opt out of this behavior by using
`#![feature(opt_out_copy)]`. Note though that this feature gate will never be
accepted and will be removed by the time that 1.0 is released, so you should
transition your code away from using it.

The test harness will make sure that the panic message contains the

The behavior is in some ways similar to JUnit's `expected` feature:

Without the message assertion, this test would pass even though it's not
actually reaching the intended part of the code:

collections: dramatically speed up Vec::reserve with magic
Somehow llvm is able to optimize this version of Vec::reserve
into dramatically faster than the old version. In micro-benchmarks
this was 2-10 times faster. It also shaved 14 minutes off of
rust's compile times.
Adds the ability to use a custom allocator heap by passing either --cfg
external_crate and --extern external=<allocator_crate_name> or --cfg
external_funcs and defining the allocator functions prefixed by 'rust_'
somewhere.
This is useful for many applications including OS/embedded development,
and allocator development and testing.
Right now, `DerefMut` is not `for Sized?`, so you can't impl `DerefMut<T> for Foo` where `Foo` is unsized. However, there is no reason that it can't be `for Sized?`, so this pull request fixes the issue.
