Expand macros in `extern {}` blocks
This permits macro and proc-macro and attribute invocations (the latter only with the `proc_macro` feature of course) in `extern {}` blocks, gated behind a new `macros_in_extern` feature.

Warn about ignored generic bounds in `for`
This adds a new lint to fix#42181. For consistency and to avoid code duplication, I also moved the existing "bounds in type aliases are ignored" here.
Questions to the reviewer:
* Is it okay to just remove a diagnostic error code like this? Should I instead keep the warning about type aliases where it is? The old code provided a detailed explanation of what's going on when asked, that information is now lost. On the other hand, `span_warn!` seems deprecated (after this patch, it has exactly one user left!).
* Did I miss any syntactic construct that can appear as `for` in the surface syntax? I covered function types (`for<'a> fn(...)`), generic traits (`for <'a> Fn(...)`, can appear both as bounds as as trait objects) and bounds (`for<'a> F: ...`).
* For the sake of backwards compatibility, this adds a warning, not an error. @nikomatsakis suggested an error in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/42181#issuecomment-306924389, but I feel that can only happen in a new epoch -- right?

Fix span of visibility
This PR
1. adds a closing parenthesis to the span of `Visibility::Crate` (e.g. `pub(crate)`). The current span only covers `pub(crate`.
2. adds a `span` field to `Visibility::Restricted`. This span covers the entire visibility expression (e.g. `pub (in self)`). Currently all we can have is a span for `Path`.
This PR is motivated by the bug found in rustfmt (https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/rustfmt/issues/2398).
The first change is a strict improvement IMHO. The second change may not be desirable, as it adds a field which is currently not used by the compiler.
No longer parse it.
Remove AutoTrait variant from AST and HIR.
Remove backwards compatibility lint.
Remove coherence checks, they make no sense for the new syntax.
Remove from rustdoc.
Do not emit type errors on recovered blocks
When a parse error occurs on a block, the parser will recover and create
a block with the statements collected until that point. Now a flag
stating that a recovery has been performed in this block is propagated
so that the type checker knows that the type of the block (which will be
identified as `()`) shouldn't be checked against the expectation to
reduce the amount of irrelevant diagnostic errors shown to the user.

Generics refactoring (groundwork for const generics)
These changes were suggested by @eddyb.
After this change, the `Generics` contain one `Vec` of an enum for the generic parameters, rather than two separate `Vec`s for lifetime and type parameters. Type params and const params will need to be in a shared `Vec` to preserve their ordering, and moving lifetimes into the same `Vec` should simplify the code that processes `Generics`.
The Generics now contain one Vec of an enum for the generic parameters,
rather than two separate Vec's for lifetime and type parameters.
Additionally, places that previously used Vec<LifetimeDef> now use
Vec<GenericParam> instead.
DefaultImpl is a highly confusing name for what we now call auto impls,
as in `impl Send for ..`. The name auto impl is not formally decided
but for sanity anything is better than `DefaultImpl` which refers
neither to `default impl` nor to `impl Default`.
