Overhaul std.container to use it; add classic containers to

Hi Andrei,
I think it would be fantastic if D could have most, if not all of
the C++ containers, so that D also has containers that do not rely
on garbage collection. I believe I read somewhere that D arrays rely
on the GC which may not be desirable in certain situations (OS
programming etc).
Can you let me know what you think as you are seemingly the chief
Phobos developer.
Thank you,
Petr Janda
The core of D's arrays don't rely on an GC. You can malloc, slice the
pointer and free it again.
Only concatening and appending use the GC, everything else should work
without a GC.
