Remove migrate borrowck mode
Closes#58781Closes#43234
# Stabilization proposal
This PR proposes the stabilization of `#![feature(nll)]` and the removal of `-Z borrowck`. Current borrow checking behavior of item bodies is currently done by first infering regions *lexically* and reporting any errors during HIR type checking. If there *are* any errors, then MIR borrowck (NLL) never occurs. If there *aren't* any errors, then MIR borrowck happens and any errors there would be reported. This PR removes the lexical region check of item bodies entirely and only uses MIR borrowck. Because MIR borrowck could never *not* be run for a compiled program, this should not break any programs. It does, however, change diagnostics significantly and allows a slightly larger set of programs to compile.
Tracking issue: #43234
RFC: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/2094-nll.md
Version: 1.63 (2022-06-30 => beta, 2022-08-11 => stable).
## Motivation
Over time, the Rust borrow checker has become "smarter" and thus allowed more programs to compile. There have been three different implementations: AST borrowck, MIR borrowck, and polonius (well, in progress). Additionally, there is the "lexical region resolver", which (roughly) solves the constraints generated through HIR typeck. It is not a full borrow checker, but does emit some errors.
The AST borrowck was the original implementation of the borrow checker and was part of the initially stabilized Rust 1.0. In mid 2017, work began to implement the current MIR borrow checker and that effort ompleted by the end of 2017, for the most part. During 2018, efforts were made to migrate away from the AST borrow checker to the MIR borrow checker - eventually culminating into "migrate" mode - where HIR typeck with lexical region resolving following by MIR borrow checking - being active by default in the 2018 edition.
In early 2019, migrate mode was turned on by default in the 2015 edition as well, but with MIR borrowck errors emitted as warnings. By late 2019, these warnings were upgraded to full errors. This was followed by the complete removal of the AST borrow checker.
In the period since, various errors emitted by the MIR borrow checker have been improved to the point that they are mostly the same or better than those emitted by the lexical region resolver.
While there do remain some degradations in errors (tracked under the [NLL-diagnostics tag](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3ANLL-diagnostics), those are sufficiently small and rare enough that increased flexibility of MIR borrow check-only is now a worthwhile tradeoff.
## What is stabilized
As said previously, this does not fundamentally change the landscape of accepted programs. However, there are a [few](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3ANLL-fixed-by-NLL) cases where programs can compile under `feature(nll)`, but not otherwise.
There are two notable patterns that are "fixed" by this stabilization. First, the `scoped_threads` feature, which is a continutation of a pre-1.0 API, can sometimes emit a [weird lifetime error](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/95527) without NLL. Second, actually seen in the standard library. In the `Extend` impl for `HashMap`, there is an implied bound of `K: 'a` that is available with NLL on but not without - this is utilized in the impl.
As mentioned before, there are a large number of diagnostic differences. Most of them are better, but some are worse. None are serious or happen often enough to need to block this PR. The biggest change is the loss of error code for a number of lifetime errors in favor of more general "lifetime may not live long enough" error. While this may *seem* bad, the former error codes were just attempts to somewhat-arbitrarily bin together lifetime errors of the same type; however, on paper, they end up being roughly the same with roughly the same kinds of solutions.
## What isn't stabilized
This PR does not completely remove the lexical region resolver. In the future, it may be possible to remove that (while still keeping HIR typeck) or to remove it together with HIR typeck.
## Tests
Many test outputs get updated by this PR. However, there are number of tests specifically geared towards NLL under `src/test/ui/nll`

Add E0788 for improper #[no_coverage] usage
Essentially, this adds proper checking for the attribute (tracking issue #84605) and throws errors when it's put in obviously-wrong places, like on struct or const definitions. Most of the code is taken directly from the checks for the `#[inline]` attribute, since it's very similar.
Right now, the code only checks at the function level, but it seems reasonable to allow adding `#[no_coverage]` to individual blocks or expressions, so, for now those just throw `unused_attributes` warnings. Similarly, since there was a lot of desire to eventually allow recursive definitions as well on modules and impl blocks, these also throw `unused_attributes` instead of an error.
I'm not sure if anything has to be done since this error is technically for an unstable feature, but since an error for using unstable features will show up anyway, I think it's okay.
This is the first big piece needed for stabilising this attribute, although I personally would like to explore renaming it to `#[coverage(never)]` on a separate PR, which I will offer soon. There's a lot of discussion still to be had about that, which is why it will be kept separate.
I don't think much is needed besides adding this simple check and a UI test, but let me know if there's something else that should be added to make this happen.
Replace `#[default_method_body_is_const]` with `#[const_trait]`
pulled out of #96077
related issues: #67792 and #92158

This is groundwork to only allowing `impl const Trait` for traits that are marked with `#[const_trait]`. This is necessary to prevent adding a new default method from becoming a breaking change (as it could be a non-const fn).
Add support for embedding pretty printers via `#[debugger_visualizer]` attribute
Initial support for [RFC 3191](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3191) in PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/91779 was scoped to supporting embedding NatVis files using a new attribute. This PR implements the pretty printer support as stated in the RFC mentioned above.
This change includes embedding pretty printers in the `.debug_gdb_scripts` just as the pretty printers for rustc are embedded today. Also added additional tests for embedded pretty printers. Additionally cleaned up error checking so all error checking is done up front regardless of the current target.
RFC: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3191
Ensure all error checking for `#[debugger_visualizer]` is done up front and not when the `debugger_visualizer` query is run.
Clean up potential ODR violations when embedding pretty printers into the `__rustc_debug_gdb_scripts_section__` section.

Move the extended lifetime resolution into typeck context
Related to #15023
This PR is based on the [idea](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/15023#issuecomment-1070931433) of #15023 by `@nikomatsakis.`
This PR specifically proposes to
- Delay the resolution of scopes of rvalues to a later stage, so that enough type information is available to refine those scopes based on relationships of lifetimes.
- Highlight relevant parts that would help future reviews on the next installments of works to fully implement a solution to RFC 66.
Implement proper stability check for const impl Trait, fall back to unstable const when undeclared
Continuation of #93960
`@jhpratt` it looks to me like the test was simply not testing for the failure you were looking for? Your checks actually do the right thing for const traits?
This alters the diagnostics a bit, as the trait method is still stable.
The only thing this check does is ensure that compilation fails if a
trait implementation is declared const-stable.
Rather than deferring to const eval for checking if a trait is const, we
now check up-front. This allows the error to be emitted earlier, notably
at the same time as other stability checks.
Also included in this commit is a change of the default const stability
level to UNstable. Previously, an item that was `const` but did not
explicitly state it was unstable was implicitly stable.
Add a query for checking whether a function is an intrinsic.
work towards #93145
This will reduce churn when we add more ways to declare intrinsics
