parser: Remove support for inner attributes on non-block expressions
Remove support for attributes like
```rust
fn attrs() {
(#![print_target_and_args(fifth)] 1, 2);
[#![print_target_and_args(sixth)] 1 , 2];
[#![print_target_and_args(seventh)] true ; 5];
match 0 {
#![print_target_and_args(eighth)]
_ => {}
}
MyStruct { #![print_target_and_args(ninth)] field: true };
}
```
They are
- useless
- unstable (modulo holes like https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/65860)
- pessimize compiler performance, namely token collection for macros (cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/82608)
I still want to run crater on this to check whether the stability holes are exploited in practice, and whether such attributes are used at all.
Replace 'NULL' with 'null'
This replaces occurrences of "NULL" with "null" in docs, comments, and compiler error/lint messages. This is for the sake of consistency, as the lowercase "null" is already the dominant form in Rust. The all-caps NULL looks like the C macro (or SQL keyword), which seems out of place in a Rust context, given that NULL does not exist in the Rust language or standard library (instead having [`ptr::null()`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/ptr/fn.null.html)).

Do not print visibility in external traits
This PR fixes the bug that caused traits, which were re-exported, having visibility modifiers in front of methods, which is invalid.
It would be nice to add a test for this, but I don't even know if tests with multiple crates are possible.
Resolves#81274
Add ErrorKind::OutOfMemory
Ability to express `ENOMEM` as an `io::Error`.
I've used `OutOfMemory` as opposed to `NotEnoughMem` or `AllocationFailed`, because "OOM" is used in Rust already.

i8 and u8::to_string() specialisation (far less asm).
Take 2. Around 1/6th of the assembly to without specialisation.

(partially fixes#73533 )
Fix debuginfo for generators
First, all fields except the discriminant (including `outer_fields`) should be put into structures inside the variant part, which gives an equivalent layout but offers us much better integration with debuggers.
Second, artificial flags in generator variants should be removed.
- Literally, variants are not artificial. We have `yield` statements, upvars and inner variables in the source code.
- Functionally, we don't want debuggers to suppress the variants. It contains the state of the generator, which is useful when debugging. So they shouldn't be marked artificial.
- Debuggers may use artificial flags to find the active variant. In this case, marking variants artificial will make debuggers not work properly.
Fixes#62572.
Fixes#79009.

Remove dead code in `rustc_session::Options`
- Don't recompile the same functions for each debugging option
This reduces the amount of items in the crate by quite a lot.
- Remove unused `parse_opt_list` and `parse_pathbuf_push` functions
- Remove unused macro parameters
- Remove `allow(dead_code)`.
Don't download cargo twice when download-rustc is set
Previously, this caused a bug on NixOS:
1. bootstrap.py would download and patch stage0/cargo
2. bootstrap.py would download nightly cargo, but extract it to
stage0/cargo instead of ci-rustc/cargo. It would still try (and fail) to patch ci-rustc/cargo.
3. bootstrap.py would fail to build rustbuild because stage0/cargo
wasn't patched.
The "proper" fix is to extract nightly cargo to ci-rustc instead, but it
doesn't seem to be necessary at all, so this just skips downloading it
instead.

[Arm64] use isb instruction instead of yield in spin loops
On arm64 we have seen on several databases that ISB (instruction synchronization
barrier) is better to use than yield in a spin loop. The yield instruction is a
nop. The isb instruction puts the processor to sleep for some short time. isb
is a good equivalent to the pause instruction on x86.
Below is an experiment that shows the effects of yield and isb on Arm64 and the
time of a pause instruction on x86 Intel processors. The micro-benchmarks use

Allow running `x.py test --stage 2 src/tools/linkchecker` with `download-rustc = true`
Previously, the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for the linkchecker looked like
`build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage1/lib/rustlib/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib`, because the linkchecker depends on the master copy of the standard library. This is true, but doesn't include the library path for the compiler libraries:
```
/home/joshua/src/rust/rust/build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage1-tools-bin/error_index_generator: error while loading shared libraries: libLLVM-12-rust-1.53.0-nightly.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
```
That file is in
`build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage1/lib/libLLVM-12-rust-1.53.0-nightly.so`,
which wasn't included in the dynamic path. This adds `build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/stage1/lib` to the dynamic path for the linkchecker.
