This commit adds support for *truly* unstable options in the compiler, as well
as adding warnings for the start of the deprecation path of
unstable-but-not-really options. Specifically, the following behavior is now in
place for handling unstable options:
* As before, an unconditional error is emitted if an unstable option is passed
and the `-Z unstable-options` flag is not present. Note that passing another
`-Z` flag does not require passing `-Z unstable-options` as well.
* New flags added to the compiler will be in the `Unstable` category as opposed
to the `UnstableButNotReally` category which means they will unconditionally
emit an error when used on stable.
* All current flags are in a category where they will emit warnings when used
that the option will soon be a hard error.
Also as before, it is intended that `-Z` is akin to `#![feature]` in a crate
where it is required to unlock unstable functionality. A nightly compiler which
is used without any `-Z` flags should only be exercising stable behavior.

I still need to add error code explanation test with this, but I can't figure out a way to generate the `.md` files in order to test example source codes.
Will fix#27328.
A spec like `#[cfg(foo(bar))]` is not allowed as an attribute. This
makes the same spec be rejected by the compiler if passed in as a
`--cfg` argument.
Fixes#31495
This commit is an implementation of the new compiler flags required by [RFC
1361][rfc]. This specifically adds a new `cfg` option to the `--print` flag to
the compiler. This new directive will print the defined `#[cfg]` directives by
the compiler for the target in question.

This commit removes the `-D warnings` flag being passed through the makefiles to
all crates to instead be a crate attribute. We want these attributes always
applied for all our standard builds, and this is more amenable to Cargo-based
builds as well.
Note that all `deny(warnings)` attributes are gated with a `cfg(stage0)`
attribute currently to match the same semantics we have today
The goal is that the compiler will pass `Result`s around rather than using abort_if_errors. To preserve behaviour we currently abort at the top level. I've removed all other aborts from the driver, but haven't touched any of the nested aborts.

This PR introduces an `ObligationForest` data structure that the fulfillment context can use to track what's going on, instead of the current flat vector. This enables a number of improvements:
1. transactional support, at least for pushing new obligations
2. remove the "errors will be reported" hack -- instead, we only add types to the global cache once their entire subtree has been proven safe. Before, we never knew when this point was reached because we didn't track the subtree.
- this in turn allows us to limit coinductive reasoning to structural traits, which sidesteps #29859
3. keeping the backtrace should allow for an improved error message, where we give the user full context
- we can also remove chained obligation causes
This PR is not 100% complete. In particular:
- [x] Currently, types that embed themselves like `struct Foo { f: Foo }` give an overflow when evaluating whether `Foo: Sized`. This is not a very user-friendly error message, and this is a common beginner error. I plan to special-case this scenario, I think.
- [x] I should do some perf. measurements. (Update: 2% regression.)
- [x] More tests targeting #29859
- [ ] The transactional support is not fully integrated, though that should be easy enough.
- [ ] The error messages are not taking advantage of the backtrace.
I'd certainly like to do 1 through 3 before landing, but 4 and 5 could come as separate PRs.

this makes sure the checks run before typeck (which might use the constant or const
function to calculate an array length) and gives prettier error messages in case of for
loops and such (since they aren't expanded yet).
fixes#30887

[breaking-change]
`OptLevel` variants are no longer `pub use`ed by rust::session::config. If you are using these variants, you must change your code to prefix the variant name with `OptLevel`.
`TypeFoldable`s can currently be visited inefficiently with an identity folder that is run only for its side effects. This creates a more efficient visitor for `TypeFoldable`s and uses it to implement `RegionEscape` and `HasProjectionTypes`, fixing cleanup issue #20298.
This is a pure refactoring.
