Instead of hard-coding the command to run, using the environment
variable `GDB_CMD` (that defaults to `gdb`) allows using a different
debugger than the default `gdb` executable.

This gives the possibility to use `cgdb` as the debugger, which provides
a nicer user interface. Note that one has to use `GDB_CMD="cgdb --"` to
use cgdb (note the trailing `--`) to let cgdb pass the proper arguments
to `gdb`.
This improves LLVM performance by 10% lost during the shimmir transition.
this improves typeck & trans performance by 1%. This looked hotter on
callgrind than it is on a CPU.
That method is *incredibly* hot, so this ends up saving 10% of trans
time.

BTW, we really should be doing dependency tracking there - and possibly be
taking the respective perf hit (got to find a way to make DTMs fast), but
`layout_cache` is a non-dep-tracking map.
this avoids parsing item attributes on each call to `item_attrs`, which takes
off 33% (!) of translation time and 50% (!) of trans-item collection time.
improves trans performance by *another* 10%.
this improves trans performance by *another* 10%.
this is another one of these things that looks *much* worse on valgrind.
rustc: replace TypeContents with two independent properties (is_freeze / needs_drop).

`InteriorUnsafe` / `interior_unsafe` was replaced with a private lang-item `Freeze` auto trait in libcore.

`OwnsDtor` / `needs_drop` was replaced with a specialized traversal that *doesn't* avoid caching results in case of a cycle, as the only cycles left can only occur in erroneous "types with infinite sizes", references and raw pointers not having destructors. Also, `Copy` is now checked at every step of the recursion.

Use an (over-writable) environment variable for the `gdb` command

Instead of hard-coding the command to run, using the environment
variable `GDB_CMD` (that defaults to `gdb`) allows using a different
debugger than the default `gdb` executable.

This gives the possibility to use `cgdb` as the debugger, which provides
a nicer user interface. Note that one has to use `GDB_CMD="cgdb --"` to
use cgdb (note the trailing `--`) to let cgdb pass the proper arguments
to `gdb`.
Expanded docs and examples for PathBuf::file_name and friends

This addresses some common surprises when `PathBuf::set_file_name` is called on the path of a directory rather than a file.

Performance audit, Spring 2017

Fix up some quite important performance "surprises" I've found running callgrind on rustc.

This really should land in 1.18.

Thanks for the pull request, and welcome! The Rust team is excited to review your changes, and you should hear from @arielb1 (or someone else) soon.

If any changes to this PR are deemed necessary, please add them as extra commits. This ensures that the reviewer can see what has changed since they last reviewed the code. Due to the way GitHub handles out-of-date commits, this should also make it reasonably obvious what issues have or haven't been addressed. Large or tricky changes may require several passes of review and changes.

Please see the contribution instructions for more information.

please don't roll the spring cleaning branch up. I want it to have it's own column at p.rl.o
