Update E0207 label to report parameter type
Fixes#35642.
r? @jonathandturner (Is this okay? I tagged you since it's a simple error fix similar to the other update ones.)
provide additional justification for array interface design
Explain why Rust does not implement traits for large arrays.
Explain why most methods are implemented on slices rather than arrays.
Note: I'm dipping my toes in the water with a tiny PR. Especially looking for feedback on wording and style. Points of concern: appropriate level of top-level explanation; foreshadowing (is it appropriate to imply that we expect Rust's type system to eventually support size-generic arrays?); using `Foo` and `Bar` as type variables instead of e.g. `T` and `S`.

Add note to docs for &str that example is to demo internals only
r? @steveklabnik
This adds a note below the &str representation example explaining that the example provided should not be used under normal circumstances..
Would it make sense to point people in the direction of the method(s) they should use instead? I left it out in the interest of not complicating the documentation, but, there's definitely an argument to be made for adding a bit of guidance in there.
A disclaimer about keywords.
Some people cite this list as "zomg Rust has so many keywords," so make
it clear that these aren't all used by the language today.
Remove the ParamSpace separation from formal and actual generics in rustc.
This is the first step towards enabling the typesystem implemented by `rustc` to be extended
(with generic modules, HKT associated types, generics over constants, etc.).
The current implementation splits all formal (`ty::Generics`) and actual (`Substs`) lifetime and type parameters (and even `where` clauses) into 3 "parameter spaces":
* `TypeSpace` for `enum`, `struct`, `trait` and `impl`
* `SelfSpace` for `Self` in a `trait`
* `FnSpace` for functions and methods
For example, in `<X as Trait<A, B>>::method::<T, U>`, the `Substs` are `[[A, B], [X], [T, U]]`.
The representation uses a single `Vec` with 2 indices where it's split into the 3 "parameter spaces".
Such a simplistic approach doesn't scale beyond the Rust 1.0 typesystem, and its existence was mainly motivated by keeping code manipulating generic parameters correct, across all possible situations.
Summary of changes:
* `ty::Generics` are uniformly stored and can be queried with `tcx.lookup_generics(def_id)`
* the `typeck::collect` changes for this resulted in a function to lazily compute the `ty::Generics` for a local node, given only its `DefId` - this can be further generalized to other kinds of type information
* `ty::Generics` and `ty::GenericPredicates` now contain only their own parameters (or `where` clauses, respectively), and refer to their "parent", forming a linked list
* right now most items have one level of nesting, only associated items and variants having two
* in the future, if `<X as mod1<A>::mod2<B>::mod3::Trait<C>>::Assoc<Y>` is supported, it would be represented by item with the path `mod1::mod2::mod3::Trait::Assoc`, and 4 levels of generics: `mod1` with `[A]`, `mod2` with `[B]`, `Trait` with `[X, C]` and `Assoc` with `[Y]`
* `Substs` gets two new APIs for working with arbitrary items:
* `Substs::for_item(def_id, mk_region, mk_type)` will construct `Substs` expected by the definition `def_id`, calling `mk_region` for lifetime parameters and `mk_type` for type parameters, and it's guaranteed to *always* return `Substs` compatible with `def_id`
* `substs.rebase_onto(from_base_def_id, to_base_substs)` can be used if `substs` is for an item nested within `from_base_def_id` (e.g. an associated item), to replace the "outer parameters" with `to_base_substs` - for example, you can translate a method's `Substs` between a `trait` and an `impl` (in both directions) if you have the `DefId` of one and `Substs` for the other
* trait objects, without a `Self` in their `Substs`, use *solely* `ExistentialTraitRef` now, letting `TraitRef` assume it *always* has a `Self` present
* both `TraitRef` and `ExistentialTraitRef` get methods which do operations on their `Substs` which are valid only for traits (or trait objects, respectively)
* `Substs` loses its "parameter spaces" distinction, with effectively no code creating `Substs` in an ad-hoc manner, or inspecting them, without knowing what shape they have already
Future plans:
* combine both lifetimes and types in a single `Vec<Kind<'tcx>>` where `Kind` would be a tagged pointer that can be `Ty<'tcx>`, `&'tcx ty::Region` or, in the future, potentially-polymorphic constants
* this would require some performance investigation, if it implies a lot of dynamic checks
* introduce an abstraction for `(T, Substs)`, where the `Substs` are even more hidden away from code
manipulating it; a precedent for this is `Instance` in trans, which has `T = DefId`; @nikomatsakis also referred to this, as "lazy substitution", when `T = Ty`
* rewrite type pretty-printing to fully take advantage of this to inject actual in the exact places of formal generic parameters in any paths
* extend the set of type-level information (e.g. beyond `ty::Generics`) that can be lazily queried during `typeck` and introduce a way to do those queries from code that can't refer to `typeck` directly
* this is almost unrelated but is necessary for DAG-shaped recursion between constant evaluation and type-level information, i.e. for implementing generics over constants

Implement `AsRef<[T]>` for `std::slice::Iter`.
`AsRef` is designed for conversions that are "cheap" (as per
the API docs). It is the case that retrieving the underlying
data of `std::slice::Iter` is cheap. In my opinion, there's no
ambiguity about what slice data will be returned, otherwise,
I would be more cautious about implementing `AsRef`.
Kicking off libproc_macro
This PR introduces `libproc_macro`, which is currently quite bare-bones (just a few macro construction tools and an initial `quote!` macro).
This PR also introduces a few test cases for it, and an additional `shim` file (at `src/libsyntax/ext/proc_macro_shim.rs` to allow a facsimile usage of Macros 2.0 *today*!
exclude `#![no_builtins]` crates from LTO
this prevents intrinsics like `memcpy` from being mis-optimized to
infinite recursive calls when LTO is used.

Implement the `!` type
This implements the never type (`!`) and hides it behind the feature gate `#[feature(never_type)]`. With the feature gate off, things should build as normal (although some error messages may be different). With the gate on, `!` is usable as a type and diverging type variables (ie. types that are unconstrained by anything in the code) will default to `!` instead of `()`.
Take commandline arguments into account for incr. comp.
Implements the conservative strategy described in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/33727.
From now one, every time a new commandline option is added, one has to specify if it influences the incremental compilation cache. I've tried to implement this as automatic as possible: One just has to added either the `[TRACKED]` or the `[UNTRACKED]` marker next to the field. The `Options`, `CodegenOptions`, and `DebuggingOptions` definitions in `session::config` show plenty of examples.
The PR removes some cruft from `session::config::Options`, mostly unnecessary copies of flags also present in `DebuggingOptions` or `CodeGenOptions` in the same struct.
One notable removal is the `cfg` field that contained the values passed via `--cfg` commandline arguments. I chose to remove it because (1) its content is only a subset of what later is stored in `hir::Crate::config` and it's pretty likely that reading the cfgs from `Options` would not be what you wanted, and (2) we could not incorporate it into the dep-tracking hash of the `Options` struct because of how the test framework works, leaving us with a piece of untracked but vital data.
It is now recommended (just as before) to access the crate config via the `krate()` method in the HIR map.
Because the `cfg` field is not present in the `Options` struct any more, some methods in the `CompilerCalls` trait now take the crate config as an explicit parameter -- which might constitute a breaking change for plugin authors.
add GNU make files for arm-unknown-linux-musleabi
For Yocto (Embedded Linux meta distro) Rust is provided via the [meta-rust layer](https://github.com/meta-rust/meta-rust). In this project there have been patches to add `arm-unknown-linux-musleabi`. Rust recently acquired that support via #35060 but only for rustbuild. meta-rust is currently only able to build Rust support with the existing GNU Makefiles. This adds `arm-unknown-linux-musleabi` support to Rust for the GNU Makefiles until meta-rust is able to sort out why using rustbuild does not work for it.

[MIR] Add Storage{Live,Dead} statements to emit llvm.lifetime.{start,end}.
Storage live ranges are tracked for all MIR variables and temporaries with a drop scope.
`StorageLive` is lowered to `llvm.lifetime.start` and `StorageDead` to `llvm.lifetime.end`.
There are some improvements possible here, such as:
* pack multiple storage liveness statements by using the index of first local + `u64` bitset
* enforce that locals are not directly accessed outside their storage live range
* shrink storage live ranges for never-borrowed locals to initialization -> last use
* emit storage liveness statements for *all* temporaries
* however, the remaining ones are *always* SSA immediates, so they'd be noop in MIR trans
* could have a flag on the temporary that its storage is irrelevant (a la C's old `register`)
* would also deny borrows if necessary
* this seems like an overcompliation and with packing & optimizations it may be pointless
Even in the current state, it helps stage2 `rustc` compile `boiler` without overflowing (see #35408).
A later addition fixes#26764 and closes#27372 by emitting `.section` directives for dylib metadata to avoid them being allocated into memory or read as `.note`. For this PR, those bugs were tripping valgrind.
