use `array_windows` instead of `windows` in the compiler
I do think these changes are beautiful, but do have to admit that using type inference for the window length
can easily be confusing. This seems like a general issue with const generics, where inferring constants adds an additional
complexity which users have to learn and keep in mind.
Note when a a move/borrow error is caused by a deref coercion
Fixes#73268
When a deref coercion occurs, we may end up with a move error if the
base value has been partially moved out of. However, we do not indicate
anywhere that a deref coercion is occuring, resulting in an error
message with a confusing span.
This PR adds an explicit note to move errors when a deref coercion is
involved. We mention the name of the type that the deref-coercion
resolved to, as well as the `Deref::Target` associated type being used.

`span.is_empty()` - returns true if `lo()` and `hi()` are equal. This is
not only a convenience, but makes it clear that a `Span` can be empty
(that is, retrieving the source for an empty `Span` will return an empty
string), and codifies the (otherwise undocumented--in the rustc_span
package, at least) fact that `Span` is a half-open interval (where
`hi()` is the open end).
`source_map.lookup_file_span()` - returns an enclosing `Span`
representing the start and end positions of the file enclosing the given
`BytePos`. This gives developers a clear way to quickly determine if any
any other `BytePos` or `Span` is also from the same file (for example,
by simply calling `file_span.contains(span)`).
This results in much simpler code and is much more runtime efficient
compared with the obvious alternative: calling `source_map.lookup_line()`
for any two `Span`'s byte positions, handle both arms of the `Result`
(both contain the file), and then compare files. It is also more
efficient than the non-public method `lookup_source_file_idx()` for each
`BytePos`, because, while comparing the internal source file indexes
would be efficient, looking up the source file index for every `BytePos`
or `Span` to be compared requires a binary search (worst case
performance being O(log n) for every lookup).
`source_map.lookup_file_span()` performs the binary search only once, to
get the `file_span` result that can be used to compare to any number of
other `BytePos` or `Span` values and those comparisons are always O(1).
