Refactor hints

Breaking change. This removes hints from the end of files, and puts them into `info.toml`. You can now access hints using:

```
rustlings hint <exerciseName>
```

ALSO this changes the exercise system to index by name for `run` and `hint`, so:

```
rustlings run exercises/if/if1.rs
```

becomes

```
rustlings run if1
```

// First hint: To figure out what type should go where the ??? is, take a look
// at the test helper function `test_with_str`, since it returns whatever
// `read_and_validate` returns and`test_with_str` has its signature fully
// specified.
// Next hint: There are three places in `read_and_validate` that we call a
// function that returns a `Result` (that is, the functions might fail).
// Apply the `?` operator on those calls so that we return immediately from
// `read_and_validate` if those function calls fail.
// Another hint: under the hood, the `?` operator calls `From::from`
// on the error value to convert it to a boxed trait object, a Box<dyn error::Error>,
// which is polymorphic-- that means that lots of different kinds of errors
// can be returned from the same function because all errors act the same
// since they all implement the `error::Error` trait.
// Check out this section of the book:
// https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch09-02-recoverable-errors-with-result.html#a-shortcut-for-propagating-errors-the--operator
// Another another hint: Note that because the `?` operator returns
// the *unwrapped* value in the `Ok` case, if we want to return a `Result` from
// `read_and_validate` for *its* success case, we'll have to rewrap a value
// that we got from the return value of a `?`ed call in an `Ok`-- this will
// look like `Ok(something)`.
// Another another another hint: `Result`s must be "used", that is, you'll
// get a warning if you don't handle a `Result` that you get in your
// function. Read more about that in the `std::result` module docs:

First hint: To figure out what type should go where the ??? is, take a look
at the test helper function `test_with_str`, since it returns whatever
`read_and_validate` returns and`test_with_str` has its signature fully
specified.
Next hint: There are three places in `read_and_validate` that we call a
function that returns a `Result` (that is, the functions might fail).
Apply the `?` operator on those calls so that we return immediately from
`read_and_validate` if those function calls fail.
Another hint: under the hood, the `?` operator calls `From::from`
on the error value to convert it to a boxed trait object, a Box<dyn error::Error>,
which is polymorphic-- that means that lots of different kinds of errors
can be returned from the same function because all errors act the same
since they all implement the `error::Error` trait.
Check out this section of the book:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch09-02-recoverable-errors-with-result.html#a-shortcut-for-propagating-errors-the--operator
Another another hint: Note that because the `?` operator returns
the *unwrapped* value in the `Ok` case, if we want to return a `Result` from
`read_and_validate` for *its* success case, we'll have to rewrap a value
that we got from the return value of a `?`ed call in an `Ok`-- this will
look like `Ok(something)`.
Another another another hint: `Result`s must be "used", that is, you'll
get a warning if you don't handle a `Result` that you get in your
function. Read more about that in the `std::result` module docs:

Make `shared_numbers` be an `Arc` from the numbers vector. Then, in order
to avoid creating a copy of `numbers`, you'll need to create `child_numbers`
inside the loop but still in the main thread.
`child_numbers` should be a clone of the Arc of the numbers instead of a
thread-local copy of the numbers."""

Step 1
You need to call something on `first` before it can be collected
Currently its type is `char`. Have a look at the methods that are available on that type:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.char.html
Step 2
First you'll need to turn the Vec into an iterator
Then you'll need to apply your function unto each item in the vector
P.s. Don't forget to collect() at the end!
Step 3.
This is very similar to the previous test. The only real change is that you will need to
alter the type that collect is coerced into. For a bonus you could try doing this with a
turbofish"""

Minor hint: In each of the two cases in the match in main, you can create x with either

In an imperative language you might write a for loop to iterate through

`Arc` is an Atomic Reference Counted pointer that allows safe, shared access
to **immutable** data. But we want to *change* the number of `jobs_completed`
so we'll need to also use another type that will only allow one thread to
mutate the data at a time. Take a look at this section of the book:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch16-03-shared-state.html#atomic-reference-counting-with-arct
and keep reading if you'd like more hints :)
Do you now have an `Arc` `Mutex` `JobStatus` at the beginning of main? Like:
`let status = Arc::new(Mutex::new(JobStatus { jobs_completed: 0 }));`
Similar to the code in the example in the book that happens after the text
that says "We can use Arc<T> to fix this.". If not, give that a try! If you
do and would like more hints, keep reading!!
Make sure neither of your threads are holding onto the lock of the mutex
while they are sleeping, since this will prevent the other thread from
being allowed to get the lock. Locks are automatically released when
they go out of scope.
Ok, so, real talk, this was actually tricky for *me* to do too. And
I could see a lot of different problems you might run into, so at this
point I'm not sure which one you've hit :)
Please open an issue if you're still running into a problem that
these hints are not helping you with, or if you've looked at the sample
answers and don't understand why they work and yours doesn't.
If you've learned from the sample solutions, I encourage you to come
back to this exercise and try it again in a few days to reinforce
what you've learned :)"""
