Store HIR attributes in a side table
Same idea as #72015 but for attributes.
The objective is to reduce incr-comp invalidations due to modified attributes.
Notably, those due to modified doc comments.
Implementation:
- collect attributes during AST->HIR lowering, in `LocalDefId -> ItemLocalId -> &[Attributes]` nested tables;
- access the attributes through a `hir_owner_attrs` query;
- local refactorings to use this access;
- remove `attrs` from HIR data structures one-by-one.
Change in behaviour:
- the HIR visitor traverses all attributes at once instead of parent-by-parent;
- attribute arrays are sometimes duplicated: for statements and variant constructors;
- as a consequence, attributes are marked as used after unused-attribute lint emission to avoid duplicate lints.
~~Current bug: the lint level is not correctly applied in `std::backtrace_rs`, triggering an unused attribute warning on `#![no_std]`. I welcome suggestions.~~
Don't hardcode the `v1` prelude in diagnostics, to allow for new preludes.
Instead of looking for `std::prelude::v1`, this changes the two places where that was hardcoded to look for `std::prelude::<anything>` instead.
This is needed for https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/82217.

resolve: Reduce scope of `pub_use_of_private_extern_crate` deprecation lint
This lint was deny-by-default since July 2017, crater showed 7 uses on crates.io back then (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/42894#issuecomment-311921147).
Unfortunately, the construction `pub use foo as bar` where `foo` is `extern crate foo;` was used by an older version `bitflags`, so turning it into an error causes too many regressions.
So, this PR reduces the scope of the lint instead of turning it into a hard error, and only turns some more rarely used components of it into errors.
Add #[rustc_legacy_const_generics]
This is the first step towards removing `#[rustc_args_required_const]`: a new attribute is added which rewrites function calls of the form `func(a, b, c)` to `func::<{b}>(a, c)`. This allows previously stabilized functions in `stdarch` which use `rustc_args_required_const` to use const generics instead.
This new attribute is not intended to ever be stabilized, it is only intended for use in `stdarch` as a replacement for `#[rustc_args_required_const]`.
```rust
#[rustc_legacy_const_generics(1)]
pub fn foo<const Y: usize>(x: usize, z: usize) -> [usize; 3] {
[x, Y, z]
}
fn main() {
assert_eq!(foo(0 + 0, 1 + 1, 2 + 2), [0, 2, 4]);
assert_eq!(foo::<{1 + 1}>(0 + 0, 2 + 2), [0, 2, 4]);
}

Fix ICE caused by suggestion with no code substitutions
Change suggestion logic to filter and checking _before_ creating
specific resolution suggestion.
Assert earlier that suggestions contain code substitions to make it
easier in the future to debug invalid uses. If we find this becomes too
noisy in the wild, we can always make the emitter resilient to these
cases and remove the assertions.
Fix#78651.
Crate root is sufficiently different from `mod` items, at least at syntactic level.
Also remove customization point for "`mod` item or crate root" from AST visitors.
Only store a LocalDefId in some HIR nodes
Some HIR nodes are guaranteed to be HIR owners: Item, TraitItem, ImplItem, ForeignItem and MacroDef.
As a consequence, we do not need to store the `HirId`'s `local_id`, and we can directly store a `LocalDefId`.
This allows to avoid a bit of the dance with `tcx.hir().local_def_id` and `tcx.hir().local_def_id_to_hir_id` mappings.

Special treatment like this was necessary before `pub(restricted)` had been implemented and only two visibilities existed - `pub` and non-`pub`.
Now it's no longer necessary and the desired behavior follows from `pub(restricted)`-style visibilities naturally assigned to enum variants and trait items.
Refactor `PrimitiveTypeTable` for Clippy
I removed `PrimitiveTypeTable` and added `PrimTy::ALL` and `PrimTy::from_name` in its place. This allows Clippy to use `PrimTy::from_name` for the `builtin_type_shadow` lint, and a `const` list of primitive types is deleted from Clippy code (the goal). All changes should be a little faster, if anything.
Box the biggest ast::ItemKind variants
This PR is a different approach on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/81400, aiming to save memory in humongous ASTs.
The three affected item kind enums are:
- `ast::ItemKind` (208 -> 112 bytes)
- `ast::AssocItemKind` (176 -> 72 bytes)
- `ast::ForeignItemKind` (176 -> 72 bytes)

This PR adds an allow-by-default future-compatibility lint
`SEMICOLON_IN_EXPRESSIONS_FROM_MACROS`. It fires when a trailing semicolon in a
macro body is ignored due to the macro being used in expression
position:
```rust
macro_rules! foo {
() => {
true; // WARN
}
}
fn main() {
let val = match true {
true => false,
_ => foo!()
};
}
```
The lint takes its level from the macro call site, and
can be allowed for a particular macro by adding
`#[allow(semicolon_in_expressions_from_macros)]`.
The lint is set to warn for all internal rustc crates (when being built
by a stage1 compiler). After the next beta bump, we can enable
the lint for the bootstrap compiler as well.
When encountering a name `a` that isn't resolved, but a label `'a` is
found in the current ribs, only suggest `'a` if this name is the value
expression of a `break` statement.

Initialize a few variables directly
Currently they are declared as `mut`, get initialized to a default value, and
then possibly overwritten.
By initializing to the final value directly, they don't need to be `mut` and
it's clear that they don't get mutated elsewhere later on.
resolve: Simplify collection of traits in scope
"Traits in scope" for a given location are collected by walking all scopes in type namespace, collecting traits in them and pruning traits that don't have an associated item with the given name and namespace.
Previously we tried to prune traits using some kind of hygienic resolution for associated items, but that was complex and likely incorrect, e.g. in #80762 correction to visibilites of trait items caused some traits to not be in scope anymore.
I previously had some comments and concerns about this in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/65351.
In this PR we are doing some much simpler pruning based on `Symbol` and `Namespace` comparisons, it should be enough to throw away 99.9% of unnecessary traits.
It is not necessary for pruning to be precise because for trait aliases, for example, we don't do any pruning at all, and precise hygienic resolution for associated items needs to be done in typeck anyway.
The somewhat unexpected effect is that trait imports introduced by macros 2.0 now bring traits into scope due to the removed hygienic check on associated item names.
I'm not sure whether it is desirable or not, but I think it's acceptable for now.
The old check was certainly incorrect because macros 2.0 did bring trait aliases into scope.
If doing this is not desirable, then we should come up with some other way to avoid bringing traits from macros 2.0 into scope, that would accommodate for trait aliases as well.
---
The PR also contains a couple of pure refactorings
- Scope walk is done by using `visit_scopes` instead of a hand-rolled version.
- Code is restructured to accomodate for rustdoc that also wants to query traits in scope, but doesn't want to filter them by associated items at all.

resolve: Reject ambiguity built-in attr vs different built-in attr
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/79798.
Resolution ensures that inert attributes cannot be used through imports like this, but built-in attributes don't go through initial resolution (only through resolution validation), so we have to keep some extra data (the built-in attribute name) to prevent it from happening.
Currently they are declared as `mut`, get initialized to a default value, and
then possibly overwritten.
By initializing to the final value directly, they don't need to be `mut` and

Update tests of "unused_lifetimes" lint for async functions and corresponding source code
Before this PR the following code would cause an error:
```
#![deny(unused_lifetimes)]
async fn f<'a>(_: &'a i32) {}
fn main() {}
```
It was happening because of the desugaring of return type in async functions. As a result of the desugaring, the return type contains all lifetimes involved in the function signature. And these lifetimes were interpreted separately from the same in the function scope => so they are unused.
Now, all lifetimes from the return type are interpreted as used. It is also not perfect, but at least this lint doesn't cause wrong errors now.

Separate out a `hir::Impl` struct
This makes it possible to pass the `Impl` directly to functions, instead
of having to pass each of the many fields one at a time. It also

resolve: Simplify built-in macro table
We don't use full `SyntaxExtension`s from the table, only `SyntaxExtensionKind`s, and `Ident` in `register_builtin_macro` always had dummy span. This PR removes unnecessary data from the table and related function signatures.
Noticed when reviewing #80850.
resolve: Scope visiting doesn't need an `Ident`
Resolution scope visitor (`fn visit_scopes`) currently takes an `Ident` parameter, but it doesn't need a full identifier, or even its span, it only needs the `SyntaxContext` part.
The `SyntaxContext` part is necessary because scope visitor has to jump to macro definition sites, so it has to be directed by macro expansion information somehow.
I think it's clearer to pass only the necessary part.
Yes, usually visiting happens as a part of an identifier resolution, but in cases like collecting traits in scope (#80765) or collecting typo suggestions that's not the case.

Previously, this code treated enum fields' visibility as if they were
struct fields. However, that's not correct because the visibility of a
struct field with `ast::VisibilityKind::Inherited` is private to the
module it's defined in, whereas the visibility of an *enum* field with
`ast::VisibilityKind::Inherited` is the visibility of the enum it
belongs to.
rustc_ast currently has a few dependencies on rustc_lexer. Ideally, an AST
would not have any dependency its lexer, for minimizing unnecessarily
design-time dependencies. Breaking this dependency would also have practical
benefits, since modifying rustc_lexer would not trigger a rebuild of rustc_ast.
This commit does not remove the rustc_ast --> rustc_lexer dependency,
but it does remove one of the sources of this dependency, which is the
code that handles fuzzy matching between symbol names for making suggestions
in diagnostics. Since that code depends only on Symbol, it is easy to move
it to rustc_span. It might even be best to move it to a separate crate,
since other tools such as Cargo use the same algorithm, and have simply
contain a duplicate of the code.
This changes the signature of find_best_match_for_name so that it is no
longer generic over its input. I checked the optimized binaries, and this
function was duplicated at nearly every call site, because most call sites
used short-lived iterator chains, generic over Map and such. But there's
no good reason for a function like this to be generic, since all it does
is immediately convert the generic input (the Iterator impl) to a concrete
Vec<Symbol>. This has all of the costs of generics (duplicated method bodies)
with no benefit.
Changing find_best_match_for_name to be non-generic removed about 10KB of
code from the optimized binary. I know it's a drop in the bucket, but we have
to start reducing binary size, and beginning to tame over-use of generics
is part of that.

resolve: Do not put macros into `module.unexpanded_invocations` unless necessary
Macro invocations in modules <sup>(*)</sup> need to be tracked because they can produce named items when expanded.
We cannot give definite answer to queries like "does this module declare name `n`?" until all macro calls in that module are expanded.
Previously we marked too many macros as potentially producing named items.
E.g. in this example
```rust
mod m {
const C: u32 = line!();
}
```
`line!()` cannot emit any items into module `m`, but it was still marked.
This PR fixes that and marks macro calls as "unexpanded in module" only if they can actually emit named items into that module.
Diagnostics in UI test outputs have different order now because this change affects macro expansion order.
<sup>*</sup> Any containers for named items are called modules in resolve (that includes blocks, traits and enums in addition to `mod` items).

Allow making `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP` conditional on the crate name
Motivation: This came up in the [Zulip stream](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/233931-t-compiler.2Fmajor-changes/topic/Require.20users.20to.20confirm.20they.20know.20RUSTC_.E2.80.A6.20compiler-team.23350/near/208403962) for https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/350.
See also https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/6608#issuecomment-458546258; this implements https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/6627.
The goal is for this to eventually allow prohibiting setting `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP` in build.rs (https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/7088).
## User-facing changes
- `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=1` still works; there is no current plan to remove this.
- Things like `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=0` no longer activate nightly features. In practice this shouldn't be a big deal, since `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP` is the opposite of stable and everyone uses `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=1` anyway.
- `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=x` will enable nightly features only for crate `x`.
- `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=x,y` will enable nightly features only for crates `x` and `y`.
## Implementation changes
The main change is that `UnstableOptions::from_environment` now requires
an (optional) crate name. If the crate name is unknown (`None`), then the new feature is not available and you still have to use `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=1`. In practice this means the feature is only available for `--crate-name`, not for `#![crate_name]`; I'm interested in supporting the second but I'm not sure how.
Other major changes:
- Added `Session::is_nightly_build()`, which uses the `crate_name` of
the session
- Added `nightly_options::match_is_nightly_build`, a convenience method
for looking up `--crate-name` from CLI arguments.
`Session::is_nightly_build()`should be preferred where possible, since
it will take into account `#![crate_name]` (I think).
- Added `unstable_features` to `rustdoc::RenderOptions`
I'm not sure whether this counts as T-compiler or T-lang; _technically_ RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP is an implementation detail, but it's been used so much it seems like this counts as a language change too.

Check against `Cheat`, not whether nightly features are allowed.
Nightly features are always allowed on the nightly channel.
- Only call `is_nightly_build()` once within a function
- Use booleans consistently for rustc_incremental
Sessions can't be passed through threads, so `read_file` couldn't take a
session. To be consistent, also take a boolean in `write_file_header`.

resolve: further improvements to "try using the enum's variant" diagnostic
Follow-up on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/77341#issuecomment-702738281.
This PR improves the diagnostic modified in #77341 to suggest not only those variants which do not have fields, but those with fields (by suggesting with placeholders). In addition, the wording of the tuple-variant-only case is improved slightly.
I've not made further changes to the tuple-variant-only case (e.g. to only suggest variants with the correct number of fields) because I don't think I have enough information to do so reliably (e.g. in the case where there is an attempt to construct a tuple variant, I have no information on how many fields were provided; and in the case of pattern matching, I only have a slice of spans and would need to check for things like `..` in those spans, which doesn't seem worth it).

Give better diagnostic when using a private tuple struct constructor
Fixes#75907
Some notes:
1. This required some deep changes, including removing a Copy impl for PatKind. If some tests fail, I would still appreciate review on the overall approach
2. this only works with basic patterns (no wildcards for example), and fails if there is any problems getting the visibility of the fields (i am not sure what the failure that can happen in resolve_visibility_speculative, but we check the length of our fields in both cases against each other, so if anything goes wrong, we fall back to the worse error. This could be extended to more patterns
3. this does not yet deal with #75906, but I believe it will be similar
4. let me know if you want more tests
5. doesn't yet at the suggestion that `@yoshuawuyts` suggested at the end of their issue, but that could be added relatively easily (i believe)
Improve unresolved use error message
"use of undeclared type or module `foo`" doesn't mention that it could be a crate.
This error can happen when users forget to add a dependency to `Cargo.toml`, so I think it's important to mention that it could be a missing crate.
I've used a heuristic based on Rust's naming conventions. It complains about an unknown type if the ident starts with an upper-case letter, and crate or module otherwise. It seems to work very well. The expanded error help covers both an unknown type and a missing crate case.
