expand: Implement something similar to `#[cfg(accessible(path))]`
cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/64797
The feature is implemented as a `#[cfg_accessible(path)]` attribute macro rather than as `#[cfg(accessible(path))]` because it needs to wait until `path` becomes resolvable, and `cfg` cannot wait, but macros can wait.
Later we can think about desugaring or not desugaring `#[cfg(accessible(path))]` into `#[cfg_accessible(path)]`.
This implementation is also incomplete in the sense that it never returns "false" from `cfg_accessible(path)`, it requires some tweaks to resolve, which is not quite ready to answer queries like this during early resolution.
However, the most important part of this PR is not `cfg_accessible` itself, but expansion infrastructure for retrying expansions.
Before this PR we could say "we cannot resolve this macro path, let's try it later", with this PR we can say "we cannot expand this macro, let's try it later" as well.
This is a pre-requisite for
- turning `#[derive(...)]` into a regular attribute macro,
- properly supporting eager expansion for macros that cannot yet be resolved like
```
fn main() {
println!(not_available_yet!());
}
macro_rules! make_available {
() => { #[macro_export] macro_rules! not_available_yet { () => { "Hello world!" } }}
}
make_available!();
```
Turn trailing tokens in `assert!()` into hard errors
I didn't have time to build the compiler and thus edited the tests manually, I hope it will still pass.
Closes#69531
r? @Centril do you want to queue the Crater experiment?
Rename `libsyntax` to `librustc_ast`
This was the last rustc crate that wasn't following the `rustc_*` naming convention.

parse: fuse associated and extern items up to defaultness
Language changes:
- The grammar of extern `type` aliases is unified with associated ones, and becomes:
```rust
TypeItem = "type" ident generics {":" bounds}? where_clause {"=" type}? ";" ;
```
Semantic restrictions (`ast_validation`) are added to forbid any parameters in `generics`, any bounds in `bounds`, and any predicates in `where_clause`, as well as the presence of a type expression (`= u8`).
(Work still remains to fuse this with free `type` aliases, but this can be done later.)
- The grammar of constants and static items (free, associated, and extern) now permits the absence of an expression, and becomes:
```rust
GlobalItem = {"const" {ident | "_"} | "static" "mut"? ident} {"=" expr}? ";" ;
```
- A semantic restriction is added to enforce the presence of the expression (the body).
- A semantic restriction is added to reject `const _` in associated contexts.
Together, these changes allow us to fuse the grammar of associated items and extern items up to `default`ness which is the main goal of the PR.
-----------------------
We are now very close to fully fusing the entirely of item parsing and their ASTs. To progress further, we must make a decision: should we parse e.g. `default use foo::bar;` and whatnot? Accepting that is likely easiest from a parsing perspective, as it does not require using look-ahead, but it is perhaps not too onerous to only accept it for `fn`s (and all their various qualifiers), `const`s, `static`s, and `type`s.

Fixes#68690
When we generate the proc macro harness, we now explicitly recorder the
order in which we generate entries. We then use this ordering data to
deserialize the correct proc-macro-data from the crate metadata.
This repr-hint makes a struct/enum hide any niche within from its
surrounding type-construction context.
It is meant (at least initially) as an implementation detail for
resolving issue 68303. We will not stabilize the repr-hint unless
someone finds motivation for doing so.
(So, declaration of `no_niche` feature lives in section of file
where other internal implementation details are grouped, and
deliberately leaves out the tracking issue number.)
incorporated review feedback, and fixed post-rebase.
Towards unified `fn` grammar
Part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/68728.
- Syntactically, `fn` items in `extern { ... }` blocks can now have bodies (`fn foo() { ... }` as opposed to `fn foo();`). As above, we use semantic restrictions instead.
- Syntactically, `fn` items in free contexts (directly in a file or a module) can now be without bodies (`fn foo();` as opposed to `fn foo() { ... }`. As above, we use semantic restrictions instead, including for non-ident parameter patterns.
- We move towards unifying the `fn` front matter; this is fully realized in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/68728.

This commit reduces the size of `Nonterminal` from a whopping 240 bytes
to 72 bytes (on x86-64), which gets it below the `memcpy` threshold.
It also removes some impedance mismatches with `Annotatable`, which
already uses `P` for these variants.
