This allows consumers of the json messages to avoid guessing where
exactly the package root is. Having access to the package root is
difficult by virtue of requiring logic to guess its location by e.g.
walking filesystem from the source file.
This guessing logic becomes further complicated in presence of
workspaces and nigh impossible to implement correctly in instances where
artifacts end up produced from paths above the package root (e.g.
`../foo.rs`).
Since Cargo has access to this data in the first place, there doesn't
seem to be much reason to force consumers to invent their own, possibly
flawed, logic.
Prior to this commit `cargo metadata` would not emit the value of a
target's "doc" setting, used by `cargo doc` to determine whether
documentation should be generated. However, this information is useful
for machine programs interested in such targets, and the information is
already made available on the internal representation of a target, so
this commit just exposes that during target serialization for emit.

Some tools can support rust doctests (e.g. highlighting
or launching). So it should be possible to find out if
doctests are enabled for a target or not. This commit
adds `doctest` field to `cargo metadata` output.
This change ensures cargo will output file paths in the expected format
(C:\foo\... on Windows, /foo/... elsewhere). Previously it would output
file:// URLs instead.
To support this change, additional changes were made to the test suite
string processing such that [ROOT] is now replaced with the appropriate
file path root for the platform.
The CWD template was also updated to use [CWD] like other replacement
templates and to do the replacement on the expected value rather than
the actual value to avoid replacing things we don't expect with CWD.
This commit stabilizes the `edition` key in `Cargo.toml`, both in the
`[package]` section and inside subtargets. Additionally the `cargo new` and
`cargo init` subcommands have been enhanced with a `--edition` flag to allow
explicitly specifying the edition to be generated.
This commit does not yet change the default edition that's generated.
