`AttrKind` is a new type with two variants, `Normal` and `DocComment`. It's a
big performance win (over 10% in some cases) because `DocComment` lets doc
comments (which are common) be represented very cheaply.
`Attribute` gets some new helper methods to ease the transition:
- `has_name()`: check if the attribute name matches a single `Symbol`; for
`DocComment` variants it succeeds if the symbol is `sym::doc`.
- `is_doc_comment()`: check if it has a `DocComment` kind.
- `{get,unwrap}_normal_item()`: extract the item from a `Normal` variant;
panic otherwise.
Fixes#60935.
Rename `LocalInternedString` and more
This PR renames `LocalInternedString` as `SymbolStr`, removes an unnecessary `impl` from it, improves comments, and cleans up some `SymbolStr` uses.

Add lint and tests for unnecessary parens around types
This is my first contribution to the Rust project, so I apologize if I'm not doing things the right way.
The PR fixes#64169. It adds a lint and tests for unnecessary parentheses around types. I've run `tidy` and `rustfmt` — I'm not totally sure it worked right, though — and I've tried to follow the instructions linked in the readme.
I tried to think through all the variants of `ast::TyKind` to find exceptions to this lint, and I could only find the one mentioned in the original issue, which concerns types with `dyn`. I'm not a Rust expert, thought, so I may well be missing something.
There's also a problem with getting this to build. The new lint catches several things in the, e.g., `core`. Because `x.py` seems to build with an equivalent of `-Werror`, what would have been warnings cause the build to break. I got it to build and the tests to pass with `--warnings warn` on my `x.py build` and `x.py test` commands.
Lint ignored `#[inline]` on function prototypes
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/51280.
- Adds a `unused_attribute` lint for `#[inline]` on function prototypes.
- As a consequence, foreign items, impl items and trait items now have their attributes checked, which could cause some code to no longer compile (it was previously erroneously ignored).
Lockless LintStore
This removes mutability from the lint store after registration. Each commit stands alone, for the most part, though they don't make sense out of sequence.
The intent here is to move LintStore to a more parallel-friendly architecture, although also just a cleaner one from an implementation perspective. Specifically, this has the following changes:
* We no longer implicitly register lints when registering lint passes
* For the most part this means that registration calls now likely want to call something like:
`lint_store.register_lints(&Pass::get_lints())` as well as `register_*_pass`.
* In theory this is a simplification as it's much easier for folks to just register lints and then have passes that implement whichever lint however they want, rather than necessarily tying passes to lints.
* Lint passes still have a list of associated lints, but a followup PR could plausibly change that
* This list must be known for a given pass type, not instance, i.e., `fn get_lints()` is the signature instead of `fn get_lints(&self)` as before.
* We do not store pass objects, instead storing constructor functions. This means we always get new passes when running lints (this happens approximately once though for a given compiler session, so no behavior change is expected).
* Registration API is _much_ simpler: generally all functions are just taking `Fn() -> PassObject` rather than several different `bool`s.
Change untagged_unions to not allow union fields with drop
This is a rebase of #56440, massaged to solve merge conflicts and make the test suite pass.
Change untagged_unions to not allow union fields with drop
Union fields may now never have a type with attached destructor. This for example allows unions to use arbitrary field types only by wrapping them in `ManuallyDrop` (or similar).
The stable rule remains, that union fields must be `Copy`. We use the new rule for the `untagged_union` feature.

Instead just use `pprust::path_to_string(..)` where needed.
This has two benefits:
a) The AST definition is now independent of printing it.
(Therefore we get closer to extracting a data-crate.)
b) Debugging should be easier as program flow is clearer.
This commit makes the `improper_ctype` lint trigger for non-exhaustive
types when those types aren't defined in the current crate.
