Add `-Z instrument-mcount`
This flag inserts `mcount` function call to the beginning of every function
after inline processing. So tracing tools like uftrace [1] (or ftrace for
Linux kernel modules) have a chance to examine function calls.
It is similar to the `-pg` flag provided by gcc or clang, but without
generating a `__gmon_start__` function for executables. If a program
runs without being traced, no `gmon.out` will be written to disk.
Under the hood, it simply adds `"instrument-function-entry-inlined"="mcount"`
attribute to every function. The `post-inline-ee-instrument` LLVM pass does
the actual job.

Mention ToString in std::fmt docs
I believe this should be added because `x.to_string()` is preferred over `format!("{}", x)` as the recommended way to convert a value to a string. `std::fmt` and the `format` macro is where people look for documentation about this, and thus we should include references to this preferred functions there.
Resolves#55065
resolve: Fix one more ICE in import validation
So if you have an unresolved import
```rust
mod m {
use foo::bar;
}
```
error recovery will insert a special item with `Def::Err` definition into module `m`, so other things depending on `bar` won't produce extra errors.
The issue was that erroneous `bar` was overwriting legitimate `bar`s coming from globs, e.g.
```rust
mod m {
use baz::*; // imports real existing `bar`
use foo::bar;
}
```
causing some unwanted diagnostics talking about "unresolved items", and producing inconsistent resolutions like https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/57015.
This PR stops overwriting real successful resolutions with `Def::Err`s.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/57015
Implement RFC 2338, "Type alias enum variants"
This PR implements [RFC 2338](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2338), allowing one to write code like the following.
```rust
#![feature(type_alias_enum_variants)]
enum Foo {
Bar(i32),
Baz { i: i32 },
}
type Alias = Foo;
fn main() {
let t = Alias::Bar(0);
let t = Alias::Baz { i: 0 };
match t {
Alias::Bar(_i) => {}
Alias::Baz { i: _i } => {}
}
}
```
Since `Self` can be considered a type alias in this context, it also enables using `Self::Variant` as both a constructor and pattern.
Fixes issues #56199 and #56611.
N.B., after discussing the syntax for type arguments on enum variants with @petrochenkov and @eddyb (there are also a few comments on the [tracking issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/49683)), the consensus seems to be treat the syntax as follows, which ought to be backwards-compatible.
```rust
Option::<u8>::None; // OK
Option::None::<u8>; // OK, but lint in near future (hard error next edition?)
Alias::<u8>::None; // OK
Alias::None::<u8>; // Error
```
I do not know if this will need an FCP, but let's start one if so.
resolve: Fix another ICE in import validation
Imports are allowed to have ambiguous resolutions as long as all of them have same `Def`.
As it turned out, it's possible for different `Module`s to have same `Def` when `extern crate` items are involved.
