5fd1ebe50f Fix panic in 'remove semicolon' when types are not local
It's not possible to check if removing a semicolon fixes the type error
when checking match arms and one or both of the last arm's and the
current arm's return types are imported "opaque" types. In these cases
we don't generate a "consider removing semicolon" suggestions.

Fixes #81839

Precompute ancestors when checking privacy

Precompute ancestors of the old error node set so that check for private
types and traits in public interfaces can in constant time determine if
the current item has any descendants in the old error set.

This removes disparity in compilation time between public and private type
aliases reported in #50614 (from 30 s to 5 s, in an example making extensive use
of private type aliases).

No functional changes intended.

make `suggest_setup` help messages better

When I first built the compiler and didn't create a `config.toml.example`, the following was emitted:

I ran `x.py setup` but got an error so in this PR I made the help messages a little clearer.

Implement RFC 2580: Pointer metadata & VTable

RFC: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2580

~~Before merging this PR:~~

* [x] Wait for the end of the RFC’s [FCP to merge](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2580#issuecomment-759145278).
* [x] Open a tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/81513
* [x] Update `#[unstable]` attributes in the PR with the tracking issue number

----

This PR extends the language with a new lang item for the `Pointee` trait which is special-cased in trait resolution to implement it for all types. Even in generic contexts, parameters can be assumed to implement it without a corresponding bound.

For this I mostly imitated what the compiler was already doing for the `DiscriminantKind` trait. I’m very unfamiliar with compiler internals, so careful review is appreciated.

This PR also extends the standard library with new unstable APIs in `core::ptr` and `std::ptr`:

```rust
pub trait Pointee {
    /// One of `()`, `usize`, or `DynMetadata<dyn SomeTrait>`
    type Metadata: Copy + Send + Sync + Ord + Hash + Unpin;
}

pub trait Thin = Pointee<Metadata = ()>;

pub const fn metadata<T: ?Sized>(ptr: *const T) -> <T as Pointee>::Metadata {}

pub const fn from_raw_parts<T: ?Sized>(*const (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> *const T {}
pub const fn from_raw_parts_mut<T: ?Sized>(*mut (),<T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> *mut T {}

impl<T: ?Sized> NonNull<T> {
    pub const fn from_raw_parts(NonNull<()>, <T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> NonNull<T> {}

    /// Convenience for `(ptr.cast(), metadata(ptr))`
    pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (NonNull<()>, <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}

impl<T: ?Sized> *const T {
    pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (*const (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}

impl<T: ?Sized> *mut T {
    pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (*mut (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}

/// `<dyn SomeTrait as Pointee>::Metadata == DynMetadata<dyn SomeTrait>`
pub struct DynMetadata<Dyn: ?Sized> {
    // Private pointer to vtable
}

impl<Dyn: ?Sized> DynMetadata<Dyn> {
    pub fn size_of(self) -> usize {}
    pub fn align_of(self) -> usize {}
    pub fn layout(self) -> crate::alloc::Layout {}
}

unsafe impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Send for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
unsafe impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Sync for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Debug for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Unpin for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Copy for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Clone for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Eq for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}

impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Ord for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> PartialOrd for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Hash for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
```

API differences from the RFC, in areas noted as unresolved questions in the RFC:

* Module-level functions instead of associated `from_raw_parts` functions on `*const T` and `*mut T`, following the precedent of `null`, `slice_from_raw_parts`, etc.
* Added `to_raw_parts`

a3659bbe6c Inline hot part of PatStack::head_ctor
When building rustc with `-Codegen-units=1` this inline hint ensures
that obtaining already initialized head constructor does not involve
a function call overhead and reduces the instruction count in
match-stress-enum-check full benchmark from 11.9G to 9.8G.

It shouldn't have significant impact on the currently default
configuration where it reflects existing inlining decisions.

Rollup merge of #82007 - sexxi-goose:reborrow, r=nikomatsakis
Implement reborrow for closure captures

The strategy for captures is detailed here with examples: https://hackmd.io/PzxYMPY4RF-B9iH9uj9GTA

Key points:
- We only need to reborrow a capture in case of move closures.
  - If we mutate something via a `&mut` we store it as a `MutBorrow`/`UniqueMuBorrow` of the path containing the `&mut`,
  - Similarly, if it's read via `&` ref we just store it as a `ImmBorrow` of the path containing the `&` ref.
  - If a path doesn't deref a `&mut`, `&`, then that path is captured by Move.
  - If the use of a path results in a move when the closure is called, then that path is truncated before any deref and the truncated path is moved into the closure.

- In the case of non-move closure if a use of a path results in a move, then the path is truncated before any deref and the truncated path is moved into the closure.

Note that the implementation differs a bit from the document to allow for truncated path to be used in the ClosureKind analysis that happens as part of the first capture analysis pass.

Closes: https://github.com/rust-lang/project-rfc-2229/issues/31

Rollup merge of #81898 - nanguye2496:nanguye2496/fix_str_and_slice_visualization, r=varkor
Fix debug information for function arguments of type &str or slice.

Issue details:
When lowering MIR to LLVM IR, the compiler decomposes every &str and slice argument into a data pointer and a usize. Then, the original argument is reconstructed from the pointer and the usize arguments in the body of the function that owns it. Since the original argument is declared in the body of a function, it should be marked as a LocalVariable instead of an ArgumentVairable. This confusion causes MSVC debuggers unable to visualize &str and slice arguments correctly. (See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/81894 for more details).

Fix details:
Making sure that the debug variable for every &str and slice argument is marked as LocalVariable instead of ArgumentVariable in computing_per_local_var_debug_info. This change has been verified on VS Code debugger, VS debugger, WinDbg and LLDB.

Simplify pattern grammar, improve or-pattern diagnostics

This implements the change under FCP in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/81415. It allows nested or-patterns to contain a leading `|`, simplifying the [grammar for patterns](https://github.com/rust-lang/reference/pull/957/files?short_path=cc629f1#diff-cc629f15712821139bc706c63b3845ab59a008e2a998e08ffad42e3aebcbcbe2).

Along the way, we also improve the diagnostics around a few specially-handled cases, such as using `||` instead of `|`, using or-patterns in fn params, including the leading `|` in the pattern span, etc.

`start_point` needs to return the *first* character's span, but it would

Add a `Result::into_ok_or_err` method to extract a `T` from `Result<T, T>`

When updating code to handle the semi-recent deprecation of `compare_and_swap` in favor of `compare_exchange`, which returns `Result<T, T>`, I wanted this. I've also wanted it with code using `slice::binary_search` before.

The name (and perhaps the documentation) is the hardest part here, but this name seems consistent with the other Result methods, and equivalently memorable.
