Remove support for `-Zprofile` (gcov-style coverage instrumentation)
Tracking issue: #42524
MCP: https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/798
---
This PR removes the unstable `-Zprofile` flag, which enables ”gcov-style” coverage instrumentation, along with its associated `-Zprofile-emit` configuration flag.
(The profile flag predates and is almost entirely separate from the stable `-Cinstrument-coverage` flag.)
Notably, the `-Zprofile` flag:
- Is largely untested in-tree, having only one run-make test that does not check whether its output is correct or useful.
- Has no known maintainer.
- Has seen no push towards stabilization.
- Has at least one severe regression reported in 2022 that apparently remains unaddressed.
- #100125
- Is confusingly named, since it appears to be more about coverage than performance profiling, and has nothing to do with PGO.
- Is fundamentally limited by relying on counters auto-inserted by LLVM, with no knowledge of Rust beyond debuginfo.
We haven't been compressing dylib metadata for a while now. Removing
decompression support will regress error messages about an incompatible
rustc version being used, but dylibs are pretty rare anyway.
Try to point out when edition 2024 lifetime capture rules cause borrowck issues
Lifetime capture rules in 2024 are modified to capture more lifetimes, which sometimes lead to some non-local borrowck errors. This PR attempts to link these back together with a useful note pointing out the capture rule changes.
This is not a blocking concern, but I'd appreciate feedback (though, again, I'd like to stress that I don't want to block this PR on this): I'm worried about this note drowning in the sea of other diagnostics that borrowck emits. I was tempted to change the level of the note to `.span_warn` just so it would show up in a different color. Thoughts?
Fixes#130545
Opening as a draft first since it's stacked on #131183.

Depend on rustc_abi in compiler crates that use it indirectly but have
not yet taken on that dependency, and are not entangled in my other PRs.
This leaves an "excise rustc_target" step after the dust settles.
Then we can rename the _raw functions to drop their suffix, and instead
explicitly use is_stable_const_fn for the few cases where that is really what
you want.
Retire the `unnamed_fields` feature for now
`#![feature(unnamed_fields)]` was implemented in part in #115131 and #115367, however work on that feature has (afaict) stalled and in the mean time there have been some concerns raised (e.g.[^1][^2]) about whether `unnamed_fields` is worthwhile to have in the language, especially in its current desugaring. Because it represents a compiler implementation burden including a new kind of anonymous ADT and additional complication to field selection, and is quite prone to bugs today, I'm choosing to remove the feature.
However, since I'm not one to really write a bunch of words, I'm specifically *not* going to de-RFC this feature. This PR essentially *rolls back* the state of this feature to "RFC accepted but not yet implemented"; however if anyone wants to formally unapprove the RFC from the t-lang side, then please be my guest. I'm just not totally willing to summarize the various language-facing reasons for why this feature is or is not worthwhile, since I'm coming from the compiler side mostly.

Stabilize the `map`/`value` methods on `ControlFlow`
And fix the stability attribute on the `pub use` in `core::ops`.
libs-api in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/75744#issuecomment-2231214910 seemed reasonably happy with naming for these, so let's try for an FCP.
Summary:
```rust
impl<B, C> ControlFlow<B, C> {
pub fn break_value(self) -> Option<B>;
pub fn map_break<T>(self, f: impl FnOnce(B) -> T) -> ControlFlow<T, C>;
pub fn continue_value(self) -> Option<C>;
pub fn map_continue<T>(self, f: impl FnOnce(C) -> T) -> ControlFlow<B, T>;
}
```
Resolves#75744

Aside, in case it keeps someone else from going down the same dead end: I looked at the `{break,continue}_value` methods and tried to make them `const` as part of this, but that's disallowed because of not having `const Drop`, so put it back to not even unstably-const.
Implement RFC3695 Allow boolean literals as cfg predicates
This PR implements https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3695: allow boolean literals as cfg predicates, i.e. `cfg(true)` and `cfg(false)`.

Refactoring to `OpaqueTyOrigin`
Pulled out of a larger PR that uses these changes to do cross-crate encoding of opaque origin, so we can use them for edition 2024 migrations. These changes should be self-explanatory on their own, tho 😄
Add `File` constructors that return files wrapped with a buffer
In addition to the light convenience, these are intended to raise visibility that buffering is something you should consider when opening a file, since unbuffered I/O is a common performance footgun to Rust newcomers.

linker: Allow MSVC to use import libraries following the Meson/MinGW convention
Hi all,
This PR implements support for `MsvcLinker` to use import libraries following Meson and the MinGW toolchain's naming convention. Meson [follows the `libfoo.dll.a` naming convention](https://mesonbuild.com/FAQ.html#why-does-building-my-project-with-msvc-output-static-libraries-called-libfooa) to disambiguate between static and import libraries.
This support already existed for static libraries (see #100101), but not for dynamic libraries. The latter case was added by duplicating the logic in `native_libs::find_native_static_library`, but a separate case was added in `link_dylib_by_name` for the Windows CRT libraries which must be handled by the linker itself.
See for prerequisites #129366, #126094, and #128370.
All feedback is appreciated!
Fixes#122455

Correctly handle stability of `#[diagnostic]` attributes
This commit changes the way we treat the stability of attributes in the
`#[diagnostic]` namespace. Instead of relaying on ad-hoc checks to
ensure at call side that a certain attribute is really usable at that
location it centralises the logic to one place. For diagnostic
attributes comming from other crates it just skips serializing
attributes that are not stable and that do not have the corresponding
feature enabled. For attributes from the current crate we can just use
the feature information provided by `TyCtx`.

Make decoding non-optional `LazyArray` panic if not set
Tables may be [defined](9649706ead/compiler/rustc_metadata/src/rmeta/mod.rs (L377)) as `optional:` or `defaulted:`. If optional, if we try to read a value from a key that was never encoded, we should panic. This has high value in ensuring correctness over a defaulted table, so the tradeoff is worth considering, since it signals the compiler has a buggy encode impl, rather than just defaulting to a value.
HOWEVER, `optional:` arrays were side-stepping this. So this PR fixes that, and makes `optional:` tables of `LazyArray` act like `LazyValue`, and panic if it's not assigned a value during encoding.
During this PR, I found that `deduced_param_attrs` has buggy (?? i think??) implementation where it will refuse to encode cross-crate `deduced_param_attrs` unless we're codegening, we're optimizing the library, and incremental is disabled. This seems incredibly wrong, but I don't want to fix it in this PR.
