This commits makes the following high-level changes:
* 'ShutdownHandle' is renamed to 'Shutdown'.
* 'Rocket::shutdown_handle()' is renamed to 'Rocket::shutdown()'.
* '#[launch]` is preferred to '#[rocket::launch]'.
* Various docs phrasings are improved.
* Fixed various broken links in docs.
This commits rearranges top-level exports as follows:
* 'shutdown' module is no longer exported.
* 'Shutdown' is exported from the crate root.
* 'Outcome' is not longer exported from the root.
* 'Handler', 'ErrorHandler' are no longer exported from the root.
The attribute is applied everywhere it can be across the codebase and is
the newly preferred method for launching an application. This commit
also makes '#[rocket::main]` stricter by warning when it is applied to
functions other than 'main'.
This commits also implement the query reform from #608. It also consists
of many, many breaking changes. Among them are:
* Query parts in route paths use new query reform syntax.
* Routing for queries is now lenient.
- Default ranking has changed to reflect query reform.
* Format routing matching has been fixed.
- Routes with formats matching "accept" will always collide.
- Routes with formats matching "content-type" require requests to
have an equivalent content-type header to match.
- Requests with imprecise content-types are treated as not having a
content-type.
* Generated routes and catchers respect visibility modifiers.
* Raw getter methods from request were renamed and retooled.
- In particular, the index parameter is based on segments in the
route path, not dynamic parameters.
* The method-based attributes no longer accept a keyed 'path'.
* The 'rocket_codegen' crate is gone and will no longer be public.
* The 'FormItems' iterator emits values of type 'FormItem'.
- The internal form items' string can no longer be retrieved.
* In general, routes are more strictly validated.
* Logging from codegen now funnels through logging infrastructure.
* Routing has been optimized by caching routing metadata.

Sessions
--------
This commit removes the `Session` type in favor of methods on the
`Cookies` types that allow for adding, removing, and getting private
(signed and encrypted) cookies. These methods provide a superset of
the functionality of `Session` while also being a minimal addition to
the existing API. They can be used to implement the previous `Session`
type as well as other forms of session storage. The new methods are:
* Cookie::add_private(&mut self, Cookie)
* Cookie::remove_private(&mut self, Cookie)
* Cookie::get_private(&self, &str)
Resolves#20
Testing
-------
This commit removes the `rocket::testing` module. It adds the
`rocket::local` module which provides a `Client` type for local
dispatching of requests against a `Rocket` instance. This `local`
package subsumes the previous `testing` package.
Rocket Examples
---------------
The `forms`, `optional_result`, and `hello_alt_methods` examples have
been removed. The following example have been renamed:
* extended_validation -> form_validation
* hello_ranks -> ranking
* from_request -> request_guard
* hello_tls -> tls
Other Changes
-------------
This commit also includes the following smaller changes:
* Config::{development, staging, production} constructors have been
added for easier creation of default `Config` structures.
* The `Config` type is exported from the root.
* `Request` implements `Clone` and `Debug`.
* `Request::new` is no longer exported.
* A `Response::body_bytes` method was added to easily retrieve a
response's body as a `Vec<u8>`.
