The public set is expanded with trait items, impls and their items, foreign items, exported macros, variant fields, i.e. all the missing parts. Now it's a subset of the exported set.
This is needed for https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/29083 because stability annotation pass uses the public set and all things listed above need to be annotated.
Rustdoc can now be migrated to the public set as well, I guess.
Exported set is now slightly more correct with regard to exported items in blocks - 1) blocks in foreign items are considered and 2) publicity is not inherited from the block's parent - if a function is public it doesn't mean structures defined in its body are public.

Stricter checking of stability attributes + enforcement of their invariants at compile time
(+ removed dead file librustc_front/attr.rs)
I intended to enforce use of `reason` for unstable items as well (it normally presents for new items), but it turned out too intrusive, many older unstable items don't have `reason`s.

I'm studying how stability works and do some refactoring along the way, so it's probably not the last PR.
paths, and construct paths for all definitions. Also, stop rewriting
DefIds for closures, and instead just load the closure data from
the original def-id, which may be in another crate.
were returned, either the trait or the *self type itself*, were not
particularly representative of what the Def is (a type parameter).
Rewrite paths to handle this case specially, just as they handle the
primitive case specifically. This entire `def_id` codepath is kind of a
mess.
Make sure Name, SyntaxContext and Ident are passed by value
Make sure Idents don't serve as keys (or parts of keys) in maps, Ident comparison is not well defined
This first patch starts by moving around pieces of state related to
type checking. The goal is to slowly unify the type checking state
into a single typing context. This initial patch moves the
ParameterEnvironment into the InferCtxt and moves shared tables
from Inherited and ty::ctxt into their own struct Tables. This
is the foundational work to refactoring the type checker to
enable future evolution of the language and tooling.
