Means that we'll need another snapshot to rid the language of `[const T]`.
7.3x speedup in string map search speed on a microbenchmark of pure hashmap
searching against a constant string, due to the lack of allocations.

I ran into a few snags.

1. The way the coherence check is set up, I can't implement `Equiv<@str>` and
   `Equiv<~str>` for `&str` simultaneously.

2. I wanted to implement `Equiv<T>` for all `T:Eq` (i.e. every type can be
   compared to itself if it implements `Eq`), but the coherence check didn't
   like that either.

3. I couldn't add this to the `Map` trait because `LinearMap` needs special
   handling for its `Q` type parameter: it must not only implement `Equiv<T>`
   but also `Hash` and `Eq`.

4. `find_equiv(&&"foo")` doesn't parse, because of the double ampersand. It has
   to be written `find_equiv(& &"foo")`. We can probably just fix this.

Nevertheless, this is a huge win; it should address a major source of
performance problems, including the one here:

New Lint: `branches_sharing_code`

This lint checks if all `if`-blocks contain some statements that are the same and can be moved out of the blocks to prevent code duplication. Here is an example:

```rust
let _ = if ... {
    println!("Start"); // <-- Lint for code duplication
    let _a = 99;
    println!("End"); // <-- Lint for code duplication
    false
} else {
    println!("Start");
    let _b = 17;
    println!("End");
    false
};
```

This could be written as:

```rust
println!("Start");

let _ = if ... {
    let _a = 99;
    false
} else {
    let _b = 17;
    false
};

println!("End");
```

---

This lint will get masked by the `IF_SAME_THEN_ELSE` lint. I think it makes more sense to only emit one lint per if block. This means that the folloing example:

```rust
if ... {
    let _a = 17;
} else {
    let _a = 17;
}
```

Will only trigger the `IF_SAME_THEN_ELSE` lint and not the `SHARED_CODE_IN_IF_BLOCKS` lint.
