Improve the rustc_data_structures::sync module doc comment.

Also, `MTRef<'a, T>` is a typedef for a reference to a `T`, but in
practice it's only used (and useful) in combination with `MTLock`, i.e.
`MTRef<'a, MTLock<T>>`. So this commit changes it to be a typedef for a
reference to an `MTLock<T>`, and renames it as `MTLockRef`. I think this
clarifies things, because I found `MTRef` quite puzzling at first.

//! This module defines types which are thread safe if cfg!(parallel_compiler) is true.
//! This module defines various operations and types that are implemented in
//! one way for the serial compiler, and another way the parallel compiler.
//!
//! `Lrc` is an alias of `Arc` if cfg!(parallel_compiler) is true, `Rc` otherwise.
//! Operations
//! ----------
//! The parallel versions of operations use Rayon to execute code in parallel,
//! while the serial versions degenerate straightforwardly to serial execution.
//! The operations include `join`, `parallel`, `par_iter`, and `par_for_each`.
//!
//! `Lock` is a mutex.
//! It internally uses `parking_lot::Mutex` if cfg!(parallel_compiler) is true,
//! `RefCell` otherwise.
//! `rustc_erase_owner!` erases an `OwningRef` owner into `Erased` for the
//! serial version and `Erased + Send + Sync` for the parallel version.
//!
//! `RwLock` is a read-write lock.
//! It internally uses `parking_lot::RwLock` if cfg!(parallel_compiler) is true,
//! `RefCell` otherwise.
//! Types
//! -----
//! The parallel versions of types provide various kinds of synchronization,
//! while the serial compiler versions do not.
//!
//! `MTLock` is a mutex which disappears if cfg!(parallel_compiler) is false.
//! The following table shows how the types are implemented internally. Except
//! where noted otherwise, the type in column one is defined as a
//! newtype around the type from column two or three.
//!
//! `MTRef` is an immutable reference if cfg!(parallel_compiler), and a mutable reference otherwise.
//! | Type | Serial version | Parallel version |
//! | ----------------------- | ------------------- | ------------------------------- |
//! | `Lrc<T>` | `rc::Rc<T>` | `sync::Arc<T>` |
//! |` Weak<T>` | `rc::Weak<T>` | `sync::Weak<T>` |
//! | | | |
//! | `AtomicBool` | `Cell<bool>` | `atomic::AtomicBool` |
//! | `AtomicU32` | `Cell<u32>` | `atomic::AtomicU32` |
//! | `AtomicU64` | `Cell<u64>` | `atomic::AtomicU64` |
//! | `AtomicUsize` | `Cell<usize>` | `atomic::AtomicUsize` |
//! | | | |
//! | `Lock<T>` | `RefCell<T>` | `parking_lot::Mutex<T>` |
//! | `RwLock<T>` | `RefCell<T>` | `parking_lot::RwLock<T>` |
//! | `MTLock<T>` [^1] | `T` | `Lock<T>` |
//! | `MTLockRef<'a, T>` [^2] | `&'a mut MTLock<T>` | `&'a MTLock<T>` |
//! | | | |
//! | `ParallelIterator` | `Iterator` | `rayon::iter::ParallelIterator` |
//!
//! `rustc_erase_owner!` erases an OwningRef owner into Erased or Erased + Send + Sync
//! depending on the value of cfg!(parallel_compiler).
//! [^1] `MTLock` is similar to `Lock`, but the serial version avoids the cost
//! of a `RefCell`. This is appropriate when interior mutability is not
//! required.
//!
//! [^2] `MTLockRef` is a typedef.
