1) changed "long way into" to "long way toward"
2) changed "developer lives" to "developers' lives"
3) removed the "either... or..." format from second paragraph because there are more than 2 options
4) Minor revisions to paragraphs 3-6 to make them more consistent in format and to fix minor grammar issues.
Remove need for &format!(...) or &&"" dances in `span_label` calls
These were always a thorn in my eye. Note that this will monomorphize to two impls, one for `String` and one for `&str`. But I think that cost is worth the ergonomics at the call sites that can be seen throughout this PR.
Add support for Hexagon v60 HVX intrinsics
HVX is a SIMD coprocessor available on newer hexagon cores. It can be configured for 512 or 1024 bit registers, and some instructions use pairs of registers. It only does integer operations, but it probably has every integer operation you'd want for 8/16/32 bit elements.
There are a lot of intrinsics. The generator outputs 582 of them. I probably got some wrong. I did some scripting to make sure that every llvm intrinsic name exists, but intrinsic names provided for programs have only been compared by eye to Qualcomm's own names. 64/128 is also appended to the names to select between 512/1024 bit. The C intrinsics don't do this, but they only expose one set, selected at compile time.
The json specifying the intrinsics required a bit of duplication since I didn't see an easy way to specify combinations of signed/unsigned types (eg. u(8-16) and s(16-32)). I also didn't see an easy way to specify variants of instructions like saturating or rounding.
Basic multiplication and load/store tested on the hexagon simulator.
[DOC] Improve `thread::panicking` documentaion.
Part of #29378
Takes care of: `panicking` could use some more advice on when to use this.
I mays have done a poor choice of introducing `Mutex`s.

Point at fields that make the type recursive
On recursive types of infinite size, point at all the fields that make
the type recursive.
```rust
struct Foo {
bar: Bar,
}
struct Bar {
foo: Foo,
}
```
outputs
```
error[E0072]: recursive type `Foo` has infinite size
--> file.rs:1:1
1 | struct Foo {
| ^^^^^^^^^^ recursive type has infinite size
2 | bar: Bar,
| -------- recursive here
|
= help: insert indirection (e.g., a `Box`, `Rc`, or `&`) at some point to make `Foo` representable
error[E0072]: recursive type `Bar` has infinite size
--> file.rs:5:1

6 | foo: Foo,

Allow # to appear in rustdoc code output.
"##" at the start of a trimmed rustdoc line is now cut to "#" and then
shown. If the user wanted to show "##", they can type "###".
I'm somewhat concerned about the potential implications for users, since this does make a potentially backwards-incompatible change. Previously, `##` had no special handling, and now we do change it. However, I'm not really sure what we can do here to improve this, and I can't think of any cases where `##` would likely be correct in a code block, though of course I could be wrong.
Fixes#41783.
Fix definitions of ULONG_PTR
The Windows type `ULONG_PTR` is supposed to be equivalent to `usize`, but several parts of the codebase currently define it as `u64`. Evidently this hasn't broken anything yet but it might cause annoying 32-bit-specific breakage in future.

Fix "an" usage
Since the pr i reviewed on got merged way before the author had a chance to quickly change it, i just did it myself. (Or well, someone else asked me to, if you want me to be honest)
