@graydon says that a type that is suffixed with /&r describes that this type holds a borrowed pointer from the region r. This needs mentioning in our documentation.

This is discussed in the borrowed pointer tutorial already -- see the section "Returning borrowed pointers" -- as well as in the "Pointer types" section of the reference manual ("Borrowed pointers are written &content, or in some cases &f/content for some lifetime-variable f...") If you have suggestions for improvements to the existing doc, feel free to comment or open a new issue :-)

Auto merge of rust-lang#3886 - RalfJung:freebsd-pthread, r=RalfJung

support pthread primitives on FreeBSD

Fixes rust-lang/miri#3571: makes out pthread implementation support FreeBSD.

FreeBSD sets PHTREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT == PHTREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCK, so the logic for handling "default vs explicitly set mutex kind" had to be adjusted.

The rest is just some general cleanup of the pthread logic, and I realized that we can enable the std::sync tests on Solarish.
