Add src/test/ui regression testing for NLL
This PR changes `x.py test` so that when you are running the `ui` test suite, it will also always run `compiletest` in the new `--compare-mode=nll`, which just double-checks that when running under the experimental NLL mode, the output matches the `<source-name>.nll.stderr` file, if present.
In order to reduce the chance of a developer revolt in response to this change, this PR also includes some changes to make the `--compare-mode=nll` more user-friendly:
1. It now generates nll-specific .stamp files, and uses them (so that repeated runs can reuse previously cached results).
2. Each line of terminal output distinguishes whether we are running under `--compare-mode=nll` by printing with the prefix `[ui (nll)]` instead of just the prefix `[ui]`.

Add rustc_trans to x.py check
r? @Mark-Simulacrum
I looked at `bootstrap/compile.rs` and `bootstrap/check.rs` to try to work out which steps were appropriate, but I'm sure I've overlooked some details here, so it's worth checking carefully I've got all the steps right (e.g. I wasn't sure whether we want to build LLVM if necessary with `x.py check`, though I thought it was probably better to than to not).
From a quick test, it seems to be working, though.
Discovered in #50061 we're falling off the "happy path" of using a stringified
token stream more often than we should. This was due to the fact that a
user-written token like `0xf` is equality-different from the stringified token
of `15` (despite being semantically equivalent).
This patch updates the call to `eq_unspanned` with an even more awful solution,
`probably_equal_for_proc_macro`, which ignores the value of each token and
basically only compares the structure of the token stream, assuming that the AST
doesn't change just one token at a time.
While this is a step towards fixing #50061 there is still one regression
from #49154 which needs to be fixed.
`char_lit` uses an allocation in order to ignore '_' chars in \u{...}
literals. This patch changes it to not do that by processing the chars
more directly.
This improves various rustc-perf benchmark measurements by up to 6%,
particularly regex, futures, clap, coercions, hyper, and encoding.
eval_context.rs calls `ok_or` in multiple places with an eagerly
evaluated `EvalErrorKind::*.into()` argument, which calls
EvalError::from(), which calls env::var("MIRI_BACKTRACE"), which
allocates a String. This code is hot enough for this to have a
measurable effect on some benchmarks.
This patch changes the `ok_or` calls into `ok_or_else`, thus avoiding
the evaluations when they're not needed. As a result, most of the
rustc-perf benchmarks get a measurable speedup, particularly the
shorter-running ones, where the improvement is as high as 6%.
Only emit save-analysis data for `cargo build` tasks
Previously, we were emittinng analysis data for all tasks, including `doc`. That meant we got two sets of save-analysis data, one from the normal build and one from the docs. That means indexing with the RLS took twice as long and made downloads larger and build times longer.

stabilize a bunch of minor api additions
besides `ptr::NonNull::cast` (which is 4 days away from end of FCP) all of these have been finished with FCP for a few weeks now with minimal issues raised
* Closes#41020
* Closes#42818
* Closes#44030
* Closes#44400
* Closes#46507
* Closes#47653
* Closes#46344
the following functions will be stabilized in 1.27:
* `[T]::rsplit`
* `[T]::rsplit_mut`
* `[T]::swap_with_slice`
* `ptr::swap_nonoverlapping`
* `NonNull::cast`
* `Duration::from_micros`
* `Duration::from_nanos`
* `Duration::subsec_millis`
* `Duration::subsec_micros`
* `HashMap::remove_entry`
This allows easy revision of the update-references.sh script (included
here) so that it can update the expected output for nll rather than
stderr. It also reminds the rustc developer via the filename that they
are looking at output generated under comapre-mode=nll.
One could argue that there is still a problem with the strategy encoded here:
if we reach a scenario where a change to the compiler brings the output
under AST and NLL modes back into sync, this code will continue to still
generate output to distinct `foo.stderr` and `foo.nll.stderr` files, and
will continue to copy those two files back to corresponding distinct
files in the source tree, even if the *content* of the two files is now the
same.
* Arguably the "right thing" to do in that case is to remove the
`foo.nll.stderr` file entirely.
* However, I think the real answer is that we will probably want to
double-check such cases by hand anyway. We should be regularly
double-checking the diffs between `foo.stderr` and
`foo.nll.stderr`, and if we see a zero-diff case, then we should
evaluate whether that is correct, and if so, remove the file by
hand.)
* In any case, I think the default behavior encoded here (or at
least *intended* to be encoded here) is superior to the
alternative of *only* generating a `foo.nll.stderr` file if one
already existed in the source tree at the time that `compiletest`
was invoked (and otherwise unconditionally generating a
`foo.stderr` file, as was the behavior prior to this commit),
because that alternative is more likely to cause rustc developers
to overwrite a `foo.stderr` file with the stderr output from a
compare-mode=nll run, which will then break the *normal*
`compiletest` run and probably be much more confusing for the
average rustc developer.
This commit only applies the flag to the one test case,
ui/span/dropck_vec_cycle_checked.rs, that absolutely needs it. Without
the flag, that test takes an unknown amount of time (greater than 1
minute) to compile. But its possible that other tests would also
benefit from the flag, and we may want to make it the default (after
evaluating its impact on other tests).
In terms of its known impact on other tests, I have only evaluated the
ui tests, and the *only* ui test I have found that the flag impacts
(running under NLL mode, of course), is src/test/ui/nll/issue-31567.rs
In particular:

Make Handler more thread-safe
The use of `code_emitted` to suppress extended explanations is not thread safe. I'm not sure why we keep the documentation for errors outside `diagnostics.rs` anyway. It would be better to add a `teach` method to `DiagnosticsBuilder`, so instead of:
```
if self.tcx.sess.teach(&err.get_code().unwrap()) {
err.note("...");
}
```
we'd use `err.teach("...")`

Various rustfmt and commenting changes
These are factored out of #49320
There aren't actually any changes in functionality, just rustfmt and doccomments.
Work around LLVM debuginfo problem in librustc_driver.
Works around a problem (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/48910) with global variable debuginfo generation for `rustc_driver::get_trans::LOAD` by applying `#[no_debug]` to it (which just disables debuginfo generation for that variable). This way we can build the compiler with debuginfo again.
Since the problem is also present in beta, this workaround might have to be backported.

rustdoc: Don't include private paths in all.html
For example the `std` [`all.html`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/all.html) includes references to the `coresimd` module which is a private implementation detail.

Remove no longer necessary comparison to Vec::splice.
`String::replace_range` was previously called `String::splice`, so this
note was necessary to differentiate it from the `Vec` method. Now that
it's renamed, this note no longer seems necessary.
