This involved, in part, changing the ast::def type so that a def_fn
has a "purity" field. This lets the typechecker determine whether
functions defined in other crates are pure.
It also required updating some error messages in tests. As a test
for cross-crate constrained functions, I added a safe_slice function
to std::str (slice(), with one of the asserts replaced with a
function precondition) and some test cases (various versions of
fn-constraint.rs) that call it. Also, I changed "fn" to "pred" for
some of the boolean functions in std::uint.
This reduces some redundancy in the AST data structures and cruft in
the code that works with them. To get a def_id from a node_id, apply
ast::local_def, which adds the local crate_num to the given node_id.
Most code only deals with crate-local node_ids, and won't have to
create def_ids at all.

With the changing of receive semantics the parser has been putting the rhs
expression in the first argument of expr_recv and the lhs in the second, and
all subsequent passes have been referring to them backwords (but still doing
the right thing because they were assuming that lhs was the port and rhs was
the receiver).
This makes all code agree on what lhs and rhs mean for receive expressions.
Most of the fields in an AST item were present in all variants. Things
could be simplified considerably by putting them in the rec rather
than in the variant tags.
I added a "resolved" version of the ast::constr type -- ty::constr_def
-- that has a def_id field instead of an ann_field. This is more
consistent with other types and eliminates some checking.
Incidentally, I removed the def_map argument to the top-level function
in middle::alias, since the ty::ctxt already has a def_map field.
Right now the only thing that it adds to meta_item is an indication of whether
the attribute was declared inside or outside the item, but I expect it will
become more useful.
