fcbb7426fa use * for pointer type instead of &
See #770

To help automatically translate code, see the
zig-fmt-pointer-reform-2 branch.

This will convert all & into *. Due to the syntax
ambiguity (which is why we are making this change),
even address-of & will turn into *, so you'll have
to manually fix thes instances. You will be guaranteed
to get compile errors for them - expected 'type', found 'foo'

3671582c15 syntax: functions require return type. remove ->
The purpose of this is:

 * Only one way to do things
 * Changing a function with void return type to return a possible
   error becomes a 1 character change, subtly encouraging
   people to use errors.

See #632

Here are some imperfect sed commands for performing this update:

remove arrow:

```
sed -i 's/\(\bfn\b.*\)-> /\1/g' $(find . -name "*.zig")
```

add void:

```
sed -i 's/\(\bfn\b.*\))\s*{/\1) void {/g' $(find ../ -name "*.zig")
```

Some cleanup may be necessary, but this should do the bulk of the work.
