This commit shards the all-encompassing `core`, `std_misc`, `collections`, and `alloc` features into finer-grained components that are much more easily opted into and tracked. This reflects the effort to push forward current unstable APIs to either stabilization or removal. Keeping track of unstable features on a much more fine-grained basis will enable the library subteam to quickly analyze a feature and help prioritize internally about what APIs should be stabilized.
A few assorted APIs were deprecated along the way, but otherwise this change is just changing the feature name associated with each API. Soon we will have a dashboard for keeping track of all the unstable APIs in the standard library, and I'll also start making issues for each unstable API after performing a first-pass for stabilization.
Currently in the E0252 message, traits and modules are all called types (as in "a type named `Foo` has already been imported", even when `Foo` was a trait or module). This commit changes that to additionally detect when the import in question is a trait or module and report it accordingly.
Fixes#25396.

Fixes#25396.
Previously, it said "import `Foo` conflicts with existing submodule" even
when it was a type alias, enum, or trait. The message now says the conflict
is with "type in this module" in the case of the first two, and "trait in
this module" for the last one.
Fixes#24081.
- add feature gate
- add basic tests
- adjust parser to eliminate conflict between `const fn` and associated
constants
- allow `const fn` in traits/trait-impls, but forbid later in type check
- correct some merge conflicts
This fixes#24922 and #25017, and reduces the number of error messages that talk about "methods" when associated constants rather than methods are involved.
I will admit that I haven't thought very carefully about the error messages. My goal has been to make more of the messages technically correct in all situations, and to avoid ICEs. But in some cases we could probably talk specifically about "methods" rather than "items".
Add diagnostic message for E0317, E0154, E0259 and E0260; part of #24407.
About E0317, I was unsure if I should add an example of what could be wrong, such as `struct i64`, `enum char { A, B }` or `type isize = i64`. I decided against it, since the diagnostic message looks clear enough to me.
What do you think?
It is currently broken to use syntax such as `<T as Foo>::U::static_method()` where `<T as Foo>::U` is an associated type. I was able to fix this and simplify the parser a bit at the same time.
This also fixes the corresponding issue with associated types (#22139), but that's somewhat irrelevant because #22519 is still open, so this syntax still causes an error in type checking.
Similarly, although this fix applies to associated consts, #25046 forbids associated constants from using type parameters or `Self`, while #19559 means that associated types have to always have one of those two. Therefore, I think that you can't use an associated const from an associated type anyway.
