Make `ensure_sufficient_stack()` non-generic, using cargo-llvm-lines
Inspired by [this blog post](https://blog.mozilla.org/nnethercote/2020/08/05/how-to-speed-up-the-rust-compiler-some-more-in-2020/) from `@nnethercote,` I used [cargo-llvm-lines](https://github.com/dtolnay/cargo-llvm-lines/) on the rust compiler itself, to improve it's compile time. This PR contains only one low-hanging fruit, but I also want to share some measurements.
The function `ensure_sufficient_stack()` was monomorphized 1500 times, and with it the `stacker` and `psm` crates, for a total of 1.5% of all llvm IR lines. With some trickery I convert the generic closure into a dynamic one, and thus all that code is only monomorphized once.
# Measurements
Getting these numbers took some fiddling with CLI flags and I [modified](https://github.com/Julian-Wollersberger/cargo-llvm-lines/blob/master/src/main.rs#L115) cargo-llvm-lines to read from a folder instead of invoking cargo. Commands I used:
```
./x.py clean
RUSTFLAGS="--emit=llvm-ir -C link-args=-fuse-ld=lld -Z self-profile=profile" CARGOFLAGS_BOOTSTRAP="-Ztimings" RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=1 ./x.py build -i --stage 1 library/std
# Then manually copy all .ll files into a folder I hardcoded in cargo-llvm-lines in main.rs#L115
cd ../cargo-llvm-lines
cargo run llvm-lines
```
The result is this list (see [first 500 lines](https://github.com/Julian-Wollersberger/cargo-llvm-lines/blob/master/llvm-lines-rustc-before.txt) ), before the change:
```

All `.ll` files together had 4.4GB. After my change they had 4.2GB. So a few percent less code LLVM has to process. Hurray!
Sadly, I couldn't measure an actual wall-time improvement. Watching YouTube while compiling added to much noise...
Here is the top of the list after the change:
```
16460866 (100%) 58341 (100%) (TOTAL)
1903085 (11.6%) 504 (0.9%) rustc_query_system::query::plumbing::get_query_impl::{{closure}}

551462 (3.4%) 1519 (2.6%) rustc_data_structures::stack::ensure_sufficient_stack::{{closure}}
```
Note that the total was reduced by 430 000 lines and `psm::on_stack::with_on_stack` has disappeared. Instead `rustc_data_structures::stack::ensure_sufficient_stack::{{closure}}` appeared. I'm confused about that one, but it seems to consist of inlined calls to `rustc_query_system::*` stuff.
Further note the other two big culprits in this list: `rustc_query_system` and `hashbrown`. These two are monomorphized many times, the query system summing to more than 20% of all lines, not even counting code that's probably inlined elsewhere.
Assuming compile times scale linearly with llvm-lines, that means a possible 20% compile time reduction.
Reducing eg. `get_query_impl` would probably need a major refactoring of the qery system though. _Everything_ in there is generic over multiple types, has associated types and passes generic Self arguments by value. Which means you can't simply make things `dyn`.
---------------------------------------
This PR is a small step to make rustc compile faster and thus make contributing to rustc less painful. Nonetheless I love Rust and I find the work around rustc fascinating :)
Add sample defaults for config.toml
- Allow including defaults in `src/bootstrap/defaults` using `profile = "..."`.
- Add default config files, with a README noting they're experimental and asking you to open an issue if you run into trouble. The config files have comments explaining why the defaults are set.
- Combine config files using the `merge` dependency.
This introduces a new dependency on `merge` that hasn't yet been vetted.
I want to improve the output when `include = "x"` isn't found:
```
thread 'main' panicked at 'fs::read_to_string(&file) failed with No such file or directory (os error 2) ("configuration file did not exist")', src/bootstrap/config.rs:522:28
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
failed to run: /home/joshua/rustc/build/bootstrap/debug/bootstrap test tidy
Build completed unsuccessfully in 0:00:00
```
However that seems like it could be fixed in a follow-up.
Closes#76619

- Add default config files
- Combine config files using the merge dependency.
- Add comments to default config files
- Add a README asking to open an issue if the defaults are bad
- Give a loud error if trying to merge `.target`, since it's not
currently supported
- Use an exhaustive match
- Use `<none>` in config.toml.example to avoid confusion
- Fix bugs in `Merge` derives
Previously, it would completely ignore the profile defaults if there
were any settings in `config.toml`. I sent an email to the `merge` maintainer
asking them to make the behavior in this commit the default.

Issue 72408 nested closures exponential
This fixes#72408.
Nested closures were resulting in exponential compilation time.
This PR is enhancing asymptotic complexity, but also increasing the constant, so I would love to see perf run results.

As a performance optimization this change introduces MiniSet,

Auto-generate lint documentation.
This adds a tool which will generate the lint documentation in the rustc book automatically. This is motivated by keeping the documentation up-to-date, and consistently formatted. It also ensures the examples are correct and that they actually generate the expected lint. The lint groups table is also auto-generated. See https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/349 for the original proposal.
An outline of how this works:
- The `declare_lint!` macro now accepts a doc comment where the documentation is written. This is inspired by how clippy works.
- A new tool `src/tools/lint-docs` scrapes the documentation and adds it to the rustc book during the build.
- It runs each example and verifies its output and embeds the output in the book.
- It does a few formatting checks.
- It verifies that every lint is documented.
- Groups are collected from `rustc -W help`.
I updated the documentation for all the missing lints. I have also added an "Explanation" section to each lint providing a reason for the lint and suggestions on how to resolve it.
This can lead towards a future enhancement of possibly showing these docs via the `--explain` flag to make them easily accessible and discoverable.
Thanks to marcusklaas' hard work in https://github.com/raphlinus/pulldown-cmark/pull/469, this fixes a lot of rustdoc bugs!
- Get rid of unnecessary `RefCell`
- Fix duplicate warnings for broken implicit reference link

Tracing update
This does not bring the more significant changes that are coming down the pipeline, but since I've already prepared the PR leaving it up :)
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/76210#issuecomment-685065938:
> Unfortunately, tracing 0.1.20 — which contained the change to reduce the amount of code generated by the tracing macros — had to be yanked, as it broke previously-compiling code for some downstream crates. I've not yet had the chance to fix this and release a new patch. So, in order to benefit from the changes to reduce generated code, you'll need to wait until there's a new version of tracing as well as tracing-attributes and tracing-core.
Add derive macro for specifying diagnostics using attributes.
Introduces `#[derive(SessionDiagnostic)]`, a derive macro for specifying structs that can be converted to Diagnostics using directions given by attributes on the struct and its fields. Currently, the following attributes have been implemented:
- `#[code = "..."]` -- this sets the Diagnostic's error code, and must be provided on the struct iself (ie, not on a field). Equivalent to calling `code`.
- `#[message = "..."]` -- this sets the Diagnostic's primary error message.
- `#[label = "..."]` -- this must be applied to fields of type `Span`, and is equivalent to `span_label`
- `#[suggestion(..)]` -- this allows a suggestion message to be supplied. This attribute must be applied to a field of type `Span` or `(Span, Applicability)`, and is equivalent to calling `span_suggestion`. Valid arguments are:
- `message = "..."` -- this sets the suggestion message.
- (Optional) `code = "..."` -- this suggests code for the suggestion. Defaults to empty.
`suggestion`also comes with other variants: `#[suggestion_short(..)]`, `#[suggestion_hidden(..)]` and `#[suggestion_verbose(..)]` which all take the same keys.
Within the strings passed to each attribute, fields can be referenced without needing to be passed explicitly into the format string -- eg, `#[error = "{ident} already declared"] ` will set the error message to `format!("{} already declared", &self.ident)`. Any fields on the struct can be referenced in this way.
Additionally, for any of these attributes, Option fields can be used to only optionally apply the decoration -- for example:
```rust
#[derive(SessionDiagnostic)]
#[code = "E0123"]
struct SomeKindOfError {
...
#[suggestion(message = "informative error message")]
opt_sugg: Option<(Span, Applicability)>
...
}
```
will not emit a suggestion if `opt_sugg` is `None`.
We plan on iterating on this macro further; this PR is a start.
Closes#61132.

Support dataflow problems on arbitrary lattices
This PR implements last of the proposed extensions I mentioned in the design meeting for the original dataflow refactor. It extends the current dataflow framework to work with arbitrary lattices, not just `BitSet`s. This is a prerequisite for dataflow-enabled MIR const-propagation. Personally, I am skeptical of the usefulness of doing const-propagation pre-monomorphization, since many useful constants only become known after monomorphization (e.g. `size_of::<T>()`) and users have a natural tendency to hand-optimize the rest. It's probably worth exprimenting with, however, and others have shown interest cc `@rust-lang/wg-mir-opt.`
The `Idx` associated type is moved from `AnalysisDomain` to `GenKillAnalysis` and replaced with an associated `Domain` type that must implement `JoinSemiLattice`. Like before, each `Analysis` defines the "bottom value" for its domain, but can no longer override the dataflow join operator. Analyses that want to use set intersection must now use the `lattice::Dual` newtype. `GenKillAnalysis` impls have an additional requirement that `Self::Domain: BorrowMut<BitSet<Self::Idx>>`, which effectively means that they must use `BitSet<Self::Idx>` or `lattice::Dual<BitSet<Self::Idx>>` as their domain.
Most of these changes were mechanical. However, because a `Domain` is no longer always a powerset of some index type, we can no longer use an `IndexVec<BasicBlock, GenKillSet<A::Idx>>>` to store cached block transfer functions. Instead, we use a boxed `dyn Fn` trait object. I discuss a few alternatives to the current approach in a commit message.
The majority of new lines of code are to preserve existing Graphviz diagrams for those unlucky enough to have to debug dataflow analyses. I find these diagrams incredibly useful when things are going wrong and considered regressing them unacceptable, especially the pretty-printing of `MovePathIndex`s, which are used in many dataflow analyses. This required a parallel `fmt` trait used only for printing dataflow domains, as well as a refactoring of the `graphviz` module now that we cannot expect the domain to be a `BitSet`. Some features did have to be removed, such as the gen/kill display mode (which I didn't use but existed to mirror the output of the old dataflow framework) and line wrapping. Since I had to rewrite much of it anyway, I took the opportunity to switch to a `Visitor` for printing dataflow state diffs instead of using cursors, which are error prone for code that must be generic over both forward and backward analyses. As a side-effect of this change, we no longer have quadratic behavior when writing graphviz diagrams for backward dataflow analyses.

Update expect-test to 1.0
The only change is that `expect_file` now uses path relative to the
current file (same as `include!`). Before, it used paths relative to
the workspace root, which makes no sense.
