Move text about the timing of checking of bounds on generics from the "Where clauses" subsection to "Trait and lifetime bounds", where it makes more sense. Split parts of the example accordingly. Correct an error about when `Clone`, `Copy`, and `Sized` trait bounds are checked.
Clarify that "outlives" really means "lives at least as long as". Also fix some more minor punctuation and wording issues.
Add documentation about implicit lifetime bounds that the compiler can infer for functions, trait implementations, and structs. This draws from RFC 2093 (for structs) and RFC 1214 for functions and trait implementations.

This is built on #1062 and #1060.
It does substantially increase the length of the page it's on, so I would be open to some reorganization.
Fixes #289.
