A task function is now given as a `fn` pointer to ensure that it carries
no state. Each fn can take two arguments, because that worked out to be
convenient -- these two arguments must be of some type that is
`DepGraphSafe`, a new trait that is intended to prevent "leaking"
information into the task that was derived from tracked state.
This intentionally leaves `DepGraph::in_task()`, the more common form,
alone. Eventually all uses of `DepGraph::in_task()` should be ported
to `with_task()`, but I wanted to start with a smaller subset.
Originally I wanted to use closures bound by an auto trait, but that
approach has some limitations:
- the trait cannot have a `read()` method; since the current method
is unused, that may not be a problem.
- more importantly, we would want the auto trait to be "undefined" for all types
*by default* -- that is, this use case doesn't really fit the typical
auto trait scenario. For example, imagine that there is a `u32` loaded
out of a `hir::Node` -- we don't really want to be passing that
`u32` into the task!
