chore: update the target compiler version to nightly-2020-06-24

This commit includes work-arounds for the following changes in the
compiler:

- Raw pointers as const generic parameters are now forbidden.
  <rust-lang/rust#73398>

  This means the work-around for ICE caused by `&'static [_]` const
  generic parameters doesn't work anymore. An alternative work-around is
  yet to be implemented.

- Mutable references are now forbidden in all constant contexts except
  for `const fn`s.
  <rust-lang/rust#72934>

  Working around this change was as easy as mechanically replacing
  `const` with `const fn` for most cases. The only tricky case was the
  definition of `id_map` inside `build!`, which is a macro meant to be
  called inside a `const` item. The type of `id_map` isn't explicitly
  specified but is rather implied by a given configuration function, so
  this couldn't be mechanically replaced with a `const` item. To resolve
  this problem, I added an explicit type to `build!`'s signature.
