It is very difficult to find tidy problems in the midst of the output of
the LLVM/jemalloc/etc. build, and travis is great for the former, so
lets remove that problem.

Encountered an issue with `pacman` while going through the guide for installing the `mingw` toolchain on Windows with `msys2`, after some googling I found the [solution](https://github.com/Alexpux/MSYS2-packages/issues/163#issuecomment-73555971).
I thought it would be good to update the README so people don't get frustrated. 😃

After submitting #28031, I ran a [script](https://gist.github.com/durka/a5243440697c780f669b) on the rest of src/ and found some anomalies. In this PR are the fixes that I thought were obvious (but I might be wrong!). The others I've submitted in issue #28037.
If you have an `Iterator<Item=String>` (say because those items were generated using `.to_string()` or similarly), borrow semantics do not permit you map that to an `Iterator<&'a str>`. These two implementations close a small gap in the `String` API.
At the same time I've also made the names of the parameters to `String`'s `Extend` and `FromIterator` implementations consistent.
We were using them for every expansion, instead of using `Name`.
Also converted `CompilerExpansion` into an enum so its nicer to use and takes up less space.
Will profile later, but this should be a small improvement in memory usage.

As of now, when you open a page in the Rust book and other books made with `rustbook`, you cannot scroll with your keyboard, whether using spacebar or arrow keys, unless you explicitly focus on the content div by clicking.
This PR fixes the issue by removing the bound on the content div size and by sticking the TOC with `position: fixed` rather than restricting the content to the window height.

This PR rewrites the code that previously relied on `PATH_MAX`.
On my tests, even though the user gives the buffer length explicitly, both Linux's glibc and OS X's libc seems to obey the hard limit of `PATH_MAX` internally. So, to truly remove the limitation of `PATH_MAX`, the related system calls should be rewritten from scratch in Rust, which this PR does not try to do.
However, eliminating the need of `PATH_MAX` is still a good idea for various reasons, such as: (1) they might change the implementation in the future, and (2) some platforms don't have a hard-coded `PATH_MAX`, such as GNU Hurd.
More details are in the commit messages.
Fixes#27454.

The major change here is in the tiny commit at the end and makes it so that we no longer emit lifetime intrinsics for allocas for function arguments. They are live for the whole function anyway, so the intrinsics add no value. This makes the resulting IR more clear, and reduces the peak memory usage and LLVM times by about 1-4%, depending on the crate.
The remaining changes are just preparatory cleanups and fixes for missing lifetime intrinsics.
Make `std::sys::os::getcwd` call `Vec::reserve(1)` followed by
`Vec::set_len` to double the buffer. This is to align with other similar
functions, such as:
- `std::sys_common::io::read_to_end_uninitialized`
- `std::sys::fs::readlink`
Also, reduce the initial buffer size from 2048 to 512. The previous size was
introduced with 4bc26ce in 2013, but it seems a bit excessive. This is
probably because buffer doubling was not implemented back then.
- Rewrite `std::sys::fs::readlink` not to rely on `PATH_MAX`
It currently has the following problems:
1. It uses `_PC_NAME_MAX` to query the maximum length of a file path in
the underlying system. However, the meaning of the constant is the
maximum length of *a path component*, not a full path. The correct
constant should be `_PC_PATH_MAX`.
2. `pathconf` *may* fail if the referred file does not exist. This can
be problematic if the file which the symbolic link points to does not
exist, but the link itself does exist. In this case, the current
implementation resorts to the hard-coded value of `1024`, which is not
ideal.
3. There may exist a platform where there is no limit on file path
lengths in general. That's the reaon why GNU Hurd doesn't define
`PATH_MAX` at all, in addition to having `pathconf` always returning
`-1`. In these platforms, the content of the symbolic link can be
silently truncated if the length exceeds the hard-coded limit mentioned
above.
4. The value obtained by `pathconf` may be outdated at the point of
actually calling `readlink`. This is inherently racy.
This commit introduces a loop that gradually increases the length of the
buffer passed to `readlink`, eliminating the need of `pathconf`.
- Remove the arbitrary memory limit of `std::sys::fs::realpath`
As per POSIX 2013, `realpath` will return a malloc'ed buffer if the
second argument is a null pointer.[1]

- Comment on functions that are still using `PATH_MAX`
There are some functions that only work in terms of `PATH_MAX`, such as
`F_GETPATH` in OS X. Comments on them for posterity.
