It only has a single use, within code handling indented block comments.
We can replace that with the new `FileMap::col_pos()`, which computes
the col position (BytePos instead of CharPos) based on the record of the
last newline char (which we already record).
This is actually an improvement, because
`trim_whitespace_prefix_and_push_line()` was using `col`, which is a
`CharPos`, as a slice index, which is a byte/char confusion.
Add some utilities to `libsyntax`
Adds a few functions to `Mark` and `Span` that I found useful in an upcoming refactor of NLL region error reporting. Also includes some new documentation based on my discussion with @jseyfried on IRC.

Provide better names for builtin deriving-generated attributes
First attempt at fixing #49967
Not in love with any choices here, don't be shy if you aren't happy with anything :)
I've tested that this produces nicer names in documentation, and that it no longer has issues conflicting with constants with the same name. (I guess we _could_ make a test for that... unsure if that would be valuable)
In all cases I took the names from the methods as declared in the relevant trait.
In some cases I had to prepend the names with _ otherwise there were errors about un-used variables. I'm uneasy with the inconsistency... do they all need to be like that? Is there a way to generate an alternate impl or use a different name (`_`?) in the cases where the arguments are not used?
Lastly the gensym addition to Ident I implemented largely as suggested, but I want to point out it's a little circuitous (at least, as far as I understand it). `cx.ident_of(name)` is just `Ident::from_str`, so we create an Ident then another Ident from it. `Ident::with_empty_ctxt(Symbol::gensym(string))` may or may not be equivalent, I don't know if it's important to intern it _then_ gensym it. It seems like either we could use that, or if we do want a new method to make this convenient, it could be on Ident instead (`from_str_gensymed`?)
Removed 'proc' from the reserved keywords list
Remove 'proc' from the reserved keywords list.
'proc' is a very useful identifier name for a lot of things. It's especially useful when dealing with processes, operating system internals, and kernel development.
Remove experimental -Zremap-path-prefix-from/to, and replace it with
the stabilized --remap-path-prefix=from=to variant.
This is an implementation for issue of #41555.
Sometimes the parser attempts to synthesize spans from within a macro
context with the span for the captured argument, leading to non-sensical
spans with very bad output. Given that an incorrect span is worse than
a partially incomplete span, when detecting this situation return only
one of the spans without mergin them.
