This commit adds a ./configure option called `--disable-elf-tls` which disables
ELF based TLS (that which is communicated to LLVM) on platforms which already
support it. OSX 10.6 does not support this form of TLS, and some users of Rust
need to target 10.6 and are unable to do so due to the usage of TLS. The
standard library will continue to use ELF based TLS on OSX by default (as the
officially supported platform is 10.7+), but this adds an option to compile the
standard library in a way that is compatible with 10.6.

Mark Arc function get_mut and method make_unique unsafe
This is a temporary mitigation for issue #24880 which points out that
these functions are racy in a particular situation where weak pointers
exist.
To mitigate this, mark the functions unsafe until this can be fixed or
another decision is made.
The `HashMap` and `HashSet` iterators use `RawTable::first_bucket_raw` which is generic and will get inlined cross-crate.
However, `first_bucket_raw` calls `calculate_offsets` and the call doesn't get inlined, despite being a simple function.
This missing `#[inline]` results in `hash_table::calculate_offsets` showing up at the top of a callgrind profile with 3 million calls (for the testcase in #25916).

This is a breaking change to unstable API, because the new version
requires an `unsafe` block. Review carefully if weak pointers may race
for any uses of this API and consider abandoning it.

The E0397 explanation, as I've written it, isn't really an explanation, but I'm not sure what to put here. I will happily take suggestions.
Partially addresses https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/25851
This adds an example from mem::swap, and provides some suggested uses of this
function.
This is my attempt to summarize the answers to a question I asked on reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/37jcul/what_is_forget_for/ and add the answers to the documentation so that no one else has to google or ask the question again.
This commit implements a number of standard traits for the standard library's
process I/O handles. The `FromRaw{Fd,Handle}` traits are now implemented for the
`Stdio` type and the `AsRaw{Fd,Handle}` traits are now implemented for the
`Child{Stdout,Stdin,Stderr}` types.
The stability markers for these implementations mention that they are stable for
1.1 as I will nominate this commit for cherry-picking to beta.

Change wording on comment on forget line to be more specific as to why we
need to call forget.
This breaks the examples up into three pieces. The last piece isn't
compiling for some reason.
The previous feature gate assumed we would not define any (stable) const fns. But then @eddyb went and cleaned up the code. So this now extends the feature-gate to prohibit calls; but calls inside of macros are considered ok.
