syntax: Optimize some literal parsing
Currently in the `wasm-bindgen` project we have a very very large crate that's
procedurally generated, `web-sys`. To generate this crate we parse all of a
browser's WebIDL and we then generate bindings for all of the APIs contained
within.
The resulting Rust file is 18MB large (wow!) and currently takes a very long
time to compile in debug mode. On the nightly compiler a *debug* build takes 90s
for the crate to finish. I was curious what was taking so long and upon
investigating a *massive* portion of the time was spent in the `lit_token`
method of the compiler, primarily formatting strings via `format!`.
Upon some more investigation it looks like the `byte_str_lit` was allocating an
error message once per byte, causing a very large number of allocations to
happen for large literals, of which wasm-bindgen generates quite a few (some are
MB large).
This commit fixes the issue by lazily allocating the error message, only doing
so if the error message is actually needed (which should be never). As a result,
the debug mode compilation time for our `web-sys` crate decreased from 90s to
20s, a very nice improvement! (although we've still got some work to do).
update lld submodule to include RISCV patch
This pulls in one new commit, to add support for linking static RISCV
binaries, suitable for the new riscv32imac-unknown-none-elf target.
See: https://github.com/rust-lang/lld/pull/1
Change target triple used to check for lldb in build-manifest
The wrong target triple was used for lldb in build-manifest. lldb is
only built for macOS, so update the triple to reflect that.
This is an attempt to fix bug#48168.
restore the page title after escaping out of a search
Currently if I start a search in the docs, but then hit ESC, the "Results for..." title is still there in my browser tab. This is a simple attempt to fix that. I see that there's a separate `var previousTitle = document.title` thing happening in `startSearch()`, but as far as I can tell that's only related to the back stack? I'd also appreciate feedback on the right place to declare the `titleBeforeSearch` variable.
Testing-wise, I've confirmed by hand that the tab title restores correctly after building with `./x.py doc --stage 1 src/libstd`, but nothing more involved than that. What else should I test?
Mark libserialize functions as inline
Got to thinking: "what if that big pile of tiny functions isn't inlining as it should?"
So a few `replace-regex` later the local perf run says this:
<details>
</details>
Not huge, but still a win, which is interesting. Want to verify with the real perf run, but I understand there's a backlog.
I didn't notice any increase in compile time or binary sizes for rustc/libs.

Add the identity function as core::convert::identity
## New notes
This implements rust-lang/rfcs#2306 (see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/53500).
## Old notes (ignore this in new reviews)
Adds the identity function `fn id<T>(x: T) -> T { x }` to core::convert and the prelude.
Some motivations for why this is useful are explained in the doc tests.
Another is that using the identity function instead of `{ x }` or `|x| x` makes it clear that you intended to use an identity conversion on purpose.
The reasoning:
+ behind adding this to `convert` and not `mem` is that this is an identity *conversion*.
+ for adding this to the prelude is that it should be easy enough to use that the ease of writing your own identity function or using a closure `|x| x` doesn't overtake that.
I've separated this out into two feature gates so that the addition to the prelude can be considered and stabilized separately.

try to infer linker flavor from linker name and vice versa
This is a second take on PR #50359 that implements the logic proposed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/50359#pullrequestreview-116663121
With this change it would become possible to link `thumb*` binaries using GNU's LD on stable as `-C linker=arm-none-eabi-ld` would be enough to change both the linker and the linker flavor from their default values of `arm-none-eabi-gcc` and `gcc`.
To link `thumb*` binaries using rustc's LLD on stable `-Z linker-flavor` would need to be stabilized as `-C linker=rust-lld -Z linker-flavor=ld.lld` are both required to change the linker and the linker flavor, but this PR doesn't propose that. We would probably need some sort of stability guarantee around `rust-lld`'s name and availability to make linking with rustc's LLD truly stable.
With this change it would also be possible to link `thumb*` binaries using a system installed LLD on stable using the `-C linker=ld.lld` flag (provided that `ld.lld` is a symlink to the system installed LLD).

52985: cause cycle err on inf trait normalization
Issue: #52985
- If an existential type is defined, but no user code infers the
concrete type behind the existential type, normalization would
infinitely recurse on this existential type which is only defined in
terms of itself.
- Instead of raising an inf recurse error, we cause a cycle error to
help highlight that the issue is that the type is only defined in terms
of itself.
- Three known potential improvements:
- If type folding itself was exposed as a query, used by
normalization and other mechanisms, cases that would cause infinite recursion would
automatically cause a cycle error.
- The span for the cycle error should be improved to point to user
code that fails to allow inference of the concrete type of the existential type,
assuming that this error occurs because no user code can allow inference the
concrete type.
- A mechanism to extend the cycle error with a helpful note would be nice. Currently,
the error is built and maintained by src/librustc/ty/query/plumbing,
with no known way to extend the information that the error gets built
with.

optimize reassignment immutable state
This is the "simple fix" when it comes to checking for reassignment. We just shoot for compatibility with the AST-based checker. Makes no attempt to solve #21232.
I opted for this simpler fix because I didn't want to think about complications [like the ones described here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/21232#issuecomment-412219247).
Let's do some profiling measurements.

Implement Unsized Rvalues
This PR is the first step to implement RFC1909: unsized rvalues (#48055).
## Implemented
- `Sized` is removed for arguments and local bindings. (under `#![feature(unsized_locals)]`)
- Unsized locations are allowed in MIR
- Unsized places and operands are correctly translated at codegen
## Not implemented in this PR
- Additional `Sized` checks:
- tuple struct constructor (accidentally compiles now)
- closure arguments at closure generation (accidentally compiles now)
- upvars (ICEs now)
- Generating vtable for `fn method(self)` (ICEs now)
- VLAs: `[e; n]` where `n` isn't const
- Reduce unnecessary allocations
## Current status
- [x] Fix `__rust_probestack` (rust-lang-nursery/compiler-builtins#244)
- [x] Get the fix merged
- [x] `#![feature(unsized_locals)]`
- [x] Give it a tracking issue number
- [x] Lift sized checks in typeck and MIR-borrowck
- [ ] <del>Forbid `A(unsized-expr)`</del> will be another PR
- [x] Minimum working codegen
- [x] Add more examples and fill in unimplemented codegen paths
- [ ] <del>Loosen object-safety rules (will be another PR)</del>
- [ ] <del>Implement `Box<FnOnce>` (will be another PR)</del>
- [ ] <del>Reduce temporaries (will be another PR)</del>

debug_assert to ensure that from_raw_parts is only used properly aligned
This does not help nearly as much as I would hope because everybody uses the distributed libstd which is compiled without debug assertions. For this reason, I am not sure if this is even worth it. OTOH, this would have caught the misalignment fixed by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/42789 *if* there had been any tests actually using ZSTs with alignment >1 (we have a CI runner which has debug assertions in libstd enabled), and it seems to currently [fail in the rg testsuite](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/rust-lang/rust/build/1.0.8403/job/v7dfdcgn8ay5j6sb). So maybe it is worth it, after all.
I have seen the attribute `#[rustc_inherit_overflow_checks]` in some places, does that make it so that the *caller's* debug status is relevant? Is there a similar attribute for `debug_assert!`? That could even subsume `rustc_inherit_overflow_checks`: Something like `rustc_inherit_debug_flag` could affect *all* places that change the generated code depending on whether we are in debug or release mode. In fact, given that we have to keep around the MIR for generic functions anyway, is there ever a reason *not* to handle the debug flag that way? I guess currently we apply debug flags like `cfg` so this is dropped early during the MIR pipeline?
EDIT: I learned from @eddyb that because of how `debug_assert!` works, this is not realistic. Well, we could still have it for the rustc CI runs and then maybe, eventually, when libstd gets compiled client-side and there is both a debug and a release build... then this will also benefit users.^^
