One of the nice things about our type system is that we have very strong alias information. We can feed this information to LLVM to help guide its optimizations.

Except for object, closures, and type parameters we don't. In the alias checker, this turned out to make type-based alias analysis quite a bit harder.

That's fine. Alias analysis is hard for almost any language. We're still much better than C :)

add new lint that disallow renaming parameters in trait functions

fixes: rust-lang#11443
fixes: rust-lang#486

changelog: add new lint [`renamed_function_params`]

Note that the lint name is not final, because I have a bad reputation in naming things, and I don't trust myself.
