Remove all json handling from rustc_serialize
Json is now handled using serde_json. Where appropriate I have replaced json usage with binary serialization (rmeta files) or manual string formatting (emcc linker arg generation).
This allowed for removing and simplifying a lot of code, which hopefully results in faster serialization/deserialization and faster compiles of rustc itself.
Where sensible we now use serde. Metadata and incr cache serialization keeps using a heavily modified (compared to crates.io) rustc-serialize version that in the future could probably be extended with zero-copy deserialization or other perf tricks that serde can't support due to supporting more than one serialization format.
Note that I had to remove `-Zast-json` and `-Zast-json-noexpand` as the relevant AST types don't implement `serde::Serialize`.
