This adds a new rustc target-configuration called 'x86_64-unknown_uefi'.
Furthermore, it adds a UEFI base-configuration to be used with other
targets supported by UEFI (e.g., i386, armv7hl, aarch64, itanium, ...).
UEFI systems provide a very basic operating-system environment, meant
to unify how systems are booted. It is tailored for simplicity and fast
setup, as it is only meant to bootstrap other systems. For instance, it
copies most of the ABI from Microsoft Windows, rather than inventing
anything on its own. Furthermore, any complex CPU features are
disabled. Only one CPU is allowed to be up, no interrupts other than
the timer-interrupt are allowed, no process-separation is performed,
page-tables are identity-mapped, ...
Nevertheless, UEFI has an application model. Its main purpose is to
allow operating-system vendors to write small UEFI applications that
load their kernel and terminate the UEFI system. However, many other
UEFI applications have emerged in the past, including network-boot,
debug-consoles, and more.
This UEFI target allows to compile rust code natively as UEFI
applications. No standard library support is added, but libcore can be
used out-of-the-box if a panic-handler is provided. Furthermore,
liballoc works as well, if a `GlobalAlloc` handler is provided. Both
have been tested with this target-configuration.
Note that full libstd support is unlikely to happen. While UEFI does
have standardized interfaces for networking and alike, none of these
are mandatory and they are unlikely to be shipped in common consumer
firmwares. Furthermore, several features like process-separation are
not available (or only in very limited fashion). Those parts of libstd
would have to be masked.
This builder is not really the correct place to put this, but it
definitely has the time budget and checking this tool builds on just one
platform is more than sufficient.
Update Cargo submodule and its dependencies
Hopefully just another routine update!
So far this starts to enable the `std::arch` in stage0 builds of rustc.
This means that we may need stage0/not(stage0) in stdsimd itself, but
more and more code is starting to use `std::arch` so I think it's time
to start shifting the balance of work here.

Add regression test for ICE
Fixes#55846 with a minimal (or as best as I can manage) test case. I tested this against 1.30.0 manually to confirm it crashes.
The issue seemed to have something to do with associated types. It's possible someone with more knowledge can shrink the test case down further, or make it clearer.
Remove `tokenstream::Delimited`.
Because it's an extra type layer that doesn't really help; in a couple
of places it actively gets in the way, and overall removing it makes the
code nicer. It does, however, move `tokenstream::TokenTree` further away
from the `TokenTree` in `quote.rs`.
More importantly, this change reduces the size of `TokenStream` from 48
bytes to 40 bytes on x86-64, which is enough to slightly reduce
instruction counts on numerous benchmarks, the best by 1.5%.
Note that `open_tt` and `close_tt` have gone from being methods on
`Delimited` to associated methods of `TokenTree`.

This commit also fixes up lifetimes a bit:
- Renames `'a` as `'p` when used with `Matrix` and `Pattern`, for
consistency.
- Removes some unnecessary `'p` lifetimes on some function arguments.
- Adds some missing lifetime parameters.
slice: tweak concat & join
- use `sum` instead of `fold` (readability)
- adjust the capacity for `join` - the number of separators is `n - 1`, not `n`; proof:
```
fn main() {
let a = [[1, 2], [4, 5]];
let v = a.join(&3);
assert_ne!(v.len(), v.capacity()); // len is 5, capacity is 6
}
```
Update the book to fix some edition-related bugs
I'd love to have this included in a point release if one happens, but the changes aren't worth doing a point release on their own IMO. I'd definitely like to see this backported to beta.
The most urgent changes included here are:
- Chapter 19.6, on macros (including the macro changes that just stabilized), [is cut off](https://github.com/rust-lang/book/issues/1668) because of an ill-placed newline in a comment that [pulldown-cmark interprets incorrectly](https://github.com/raphlinus/pulldown-cmark/issues/124).
- [The `Cargo.toml` shown in the Guessing Game example in Chapter 2 (and one in Chapter 14) doesn't have `edition="2018"`](https://github.com/rust-lang/book/pull/1671), which can be confusing depending on whether the readers have it in theirs or not, think they should remove it if they have it, and the rest of the chapter assumes it's there and the code doesn't compile if you don't have it.
- The redirects implemented as part of only shipping the 2018 edition of the book sometimes lead to [having to click through 2 redirect pages](https://github.com/rust-lang/book/pull/1667) when it could be just one.
There are other small corrections included that were made since the last time the book was updated, but those aren't urgent.
