Refactor passes and pass execution to be more parallel
For `syntex_syntax` (with 16 threads and 8 cores):
- Cuts `misc checking 1` from `0.096s` to `0.08325s`.
- Cuts `misc checking 2` from `0.3575s` to `0.2545s`.
- Cuts `misc checking 3` from `0.34625s` to `0.21375s`.
- Cuts `wf checking` from `0.3085s` to `0.05025s`.
Reduces overall execution time for `syntex_syntax` (with 8 threads and cores) from `4.92s` to `4.34s`.

Cosmetic improvements to doc comments
This has been factored out from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/58036 to only include changes to documentation comments (throughout the rustc codebase).

Once you're happy with this, maybe we could get it through with r=1, so it doesn't constantly get invalidated? (I'm not sure this will be an issue, but just in case...) Anyway, thanks for your advice so far!
This commit changes `syntax::fold::Folder` from a functional style
(where most methods take a `T` and produce a new `T`) to a more
imperative style (where most methods take and modify a `&mut T`), and
renames it `syntax::mut_visit::MutVisitor`.
The first benefit is speed. The functional style does not require any
reallocations, due to the use of `P::map` and
`MoveMap::move_{,flat_}map`. However, every field in the AST must be
overwritten; even those fields that are unchanged are overwritten with
the same value. This causes a lot of unnecessary memory writes. The
imperative style reduces instruction counts by 1--3% across a wide range
of workloads, particularly incremental workloads.
The second benefit is conciseness; the imperative style is usually more
concise. E.g. compare the old functional style:
```
fn fold_abc(&mut self, abc: ABC) {
ABC {
a: fold_a(abc.a),
b: fold_b(abc.b),
c: abc.c,
}
}
```
with the imperative style:
```
fn visit_abc(&mut self, ABC { a, b, c: _ }: &mut ABC) {
visit_a(a);
visit_b(b);
}
```
(The reductions get larger in more complex examples.)
Overall, the patch removes over 200 lines of code -- even though the new
code has more comments -- and a lot of the remaining lines have fewer
characters.
Some notes:
- The old style used methods called `fold_*`. The new style mostly uses
methods called `visit_*`, but there are a few methods that map a `T`
to something other than a `T`, which are called `flat_map_*` (`T` maps
to multiple `T`s) or `filter_map_*` (`T` maps to 0 or 1 `T`s).
- `move_map.rs`/`MoveMap`/`move_map`/`move_flat_map` are renamed
`map_in_place.rs`/`MapInPlace`/`map_in_place`/`flat_map_in_place` to
reflect their slightly changed signatures.
- Although this commit renames the `fold` module as `mut_visit`, it
keeps it in the `fold.rs` file, so as not to confuse git. The next
commit will rename the file.
Since the values for the fcntl constants can vary from architecture
to architecture, it is better to use the values defined in the libc
crate instead of assigning literals in the flock code which would
make the assumption that all architectures use the same values.
Fixes#57007
