The correct thing to do here is to use env_logger, but that was causing cargo troubles for me, and this is preferable to swallowing them.
It looks like mwu added this, but I'm pretty sure it's a category error. This function appears to be designed to reproducibly permute C identifiers so that they don't conflict with builtin rust types. It's specifically _not_ a type translator (which would happen at the type level, rather than the string level), and using it as such with callers like ctypedef_to_rs causes us to generate things like: type u64 = u64; While processing stdint.h, which is clearly wrong.
…s during code generator.
As best as I can tell, it's done this way (rather than my way) because bindgen tries
to recognize struct and enums typedefs of the form:
/* This is a common idiom in C, not so much in C++ */
typdef struct {
...
} Foo;
The intention, I think, is to avoid generating rust code for a struct with a placeholder
name followed by a typedef, and just give the struct the right name initially.
This seems like a reasonable goal, though not a particularly important one. However, in
my testing this never actually happens, because we end up calling unnamed_name anyway
during the GComp(ci) case of gen_mod before we get to evaluting the typedef.
So let's just remove that stuff and simplify the code. This lets us remove all the
borrow_mut calls during code generation, which seems necessary for soundness.

Update syntex and use clang-sys for path-searching This is on top of rust-lang#10 because they conflicted, yet I needed clang-sys for one of the tests. r? @nox

This is on top of #9, so probably that should merge before.
Couldn't add a test because I accidentally removed the llvm path so I'm re-installing it, I'll add it to this PR.
