- convert to newer `..=` syntax, fixing compiler warnings
+ requires MinSRV >= v1.26.0
.# [why]
The inclusive range operator (`..=`) was stabilized in rust v1.26.0.
Warnings requesting conversion from the old `...` operator to `..=` were
introduced in rust v1.37.0.

For coreutils, there are two build artifacts:
1. multicall executable (each utility is a separate static library)
2. individual utilities (still separate library with main wrapper)
To avoid namespace collision, each utility crate is defined as
"uu_{CMD}". The end user only sees the original utility name. This
simplifies build.rs.
Also, the thin wrapper for the main() function is no longer contained in
the crate. It has been separated into a dedicated file. This was
necessary to work around Cargo's need for the crate name attribute to
match the name in the respective Cargo.toml.
When determining the range from which to select portions of a line, the
upper limit of the range is a usize. The maximum upper value is
usize::MAX, but at one point this value is incremented, causing an
overflow. By setting the maximum upper value to usize::MAX-1, the bug is
averted. Since the upper limit of the range is an index (thus, ranging
from 0 to 2^64-1 for 64-bit platforms), the maximum usize should not be
reached.
Everything in src/common has been moved to src/uucore. This is defined
as a Cargo library, instead of directly included. This gives us
flexibility to make the library an external crate in the future.
Fixes#717.
Builds the uutils multicall binary containing all utils (except stdbuf)
by default. To only build a subset
`cargo --no-default-features --features <utils>`
can be used.
Whats missing is building the standalone binaries and a mechanism to
automatically disable the build of unix only utils on windows.
I switched over to the getopts crate on crates.io, instead of Rust's
private implementation. This will allow coreutils to build for Rust 1.0.
I'm splitting the updates into several commits for easier reviewing.
This commit updates `cut` to build on rust nightly.
In addition, it adds support for null input and output delimiters,
and fixes a bug in the `cut_characters()` function that would cause
incorrect output when two adjacent fields were specified in the range
list.
