Mention the syntax for `use` on `mod foo;` if `foo` doesn't exist
Newcomers might get confused that `mod` is the only way of defining scopes, and that it can be used as if it were `use`.
Fix#69492.
Fix overflow checking in range patterns
When a range pattern contains an overflowing literal, if we're not careful we might not notice the overflow and use the wrapped value. This makes for confusing error messages because linting against overflowing literals is only done in a later pass. So when a range is invalid we check for overflows to provide a better error.
This check didn't use to handle negative types; this PR fixes that. First commit adds tests, second cleans up without changing behavior, third does the fix.
EDIT: while I was at it, I fixed a small annoyance about the span of the overflow lint on negated literals.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/94239
Extend `impl`'s `def_span` to include its where clauses
Typically, we highlight the def-span of an impl in a diagnostic due to either:
1. coherence error
2. trait evaluation cycle
3. invalid implementation of built-in trait
I find that an impl's where clauses are very often required to understanding why these errors come about, which is unfortunate since where clauses may be located on different lines and don't show up in the error. This PR expands the def-span of impls to include these where clauses.
r? cjgillot since you've touched this code a while back to make some spans shorter, but you can also reassign to wg-diagnostics or compiler if you're busy or have no strong opinions.
Show more information when multiple `impl`s apply
- When there are `impl`s without type params, show only those (to avoid showing overly generic `impl`s).

- Lower the importance of `T: Sized`, `T: WellFormed` and coercion errors, to prioritize more relevant errors. The pre-existing deduplication logic deals with hiding redundant errors better that way, and we show errors with more metadata that is useful to the user.
- Show `<SelfTy as Trait>::assoc_fn` suggestion in more cases.

Fix#88284.
In `report_fullfillment_errors` push back `T: Sized`, `T: WellFormed`
and coercion errors to the end of the list. The pre-existing
deduplication logic eliminates redundant errors better that way, keeping
the resulting output with fewer errors than before, while also having
more detail.
Gate and validate `#[rustc_safe_intrinsic]`
Copied over from #116159:
> This was added as ungated in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/100719/files#diff-09c366d3ad3ec9a42125253b610ca83cad6b156aa2a723f6c7e83eddef7b1e8fR502, probably because the author looked at the surrounding attributes, which are ungated because they are gated specially behind the staged_api feature.

> I don't think we need to crater this, the attribute is entirely useless without the intrinsics feature, which is already unstable..
r? ``@Nilstrieb``
adjust how closure/generator types are printed
I saw `&[closure@$DIR/issue-20862.rs:2:5]` and I thought it is a slice type, because that's usually what `&[_]` is... it took me a while to realize that this is just a confusing printer and actually there's no slice. Let's use something that cannot be mistaken for a regular type.
This function is now used to check `#[panic_handler]`, `start` lang item, `main`, `#[start]` and intrinsic functions.
The diagnosis produced are now closer to the ones produced by trait/impl method signature mismatch.
Improve diagnostic for generic params from outer items (E0401)
Generalize the wording of E0401 to talk about *outer items* instead of *outer functions* since the current phrasing is outdated. The outer item can be a function, constant, trait, ADT or impl block (see the new UI test for the more exotic examples).
Further, don't suggest introducing generic parameters to constant items unless the feature `generic_const_items` is enabled.
Lastly, make E0401 translatable while we're at it.
Fixes#115720.
Previously, the test code would emit E0615, thus revealing the existence
of private methods that the programmer probably does not care about.
Now it ignores their existence instead, producing error E0609 (no field).
The motivating example is:
```rust
let x = std::rc::Rc::new(());
x.inner;
```
which would previously mention the private method `Rc::inner()`, even
though `Rc<T>` intentionally has no public methods so that it can be a
transparent smart pointer for any `T`.
Indexing is similar to method calls in having an arbitrary
left-hand-side and then something on the right, which is the main part
of the expression. Method calls already have a span for that right part,
but indexing does not. This means that long method chains that use
indexing have really bad spans, especially when the indexing panics and
that span in coverted into a panic location.
This does the same thing as method calls for the AST and HIR, storing an
extra span which is then put into the `fn_span` field in THIR.
new unstable option: -Zwrite-long-types-to-disk
This option guards the logic of writing long type names in files and instead using short forms in error messages in rustc_middle/ty/error behind a flag. The main motivation for this change is to disable this behaviour when running ui tests.
This logic can be triggered by running tests in a directory that has a long enough path, e.g. /my/very-long-path/where/rust-codebase/exists/
This means ui tests can fail depending on how long the path to their file is.
Some ui tests actually rely on this behaviour for their assertions, so for those we enable the flag manually.
