Moved old check_matcher code into check_matcher_old
combined the two checks to enable a warning cycle (where we will
continue to error if the two checks agree to reject, accept if the new
check says accept, and warn if the old check accepts but the new check
rejects).
`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.
It was recently realized that we accept defaulted type parameters everywhere, without feature gate, even though the only place that we really *intended* to accept them were on types. This PR adds a lint warning unless the "type-parameter-defaults" feature is enabled. This should eventually become a hard error.
This is a [breaking-change] in that new feature gates are required (or simply removing the defaults, which is probably a better choice as they have little effect at this time). Results of a [crater run][crater] suggest that approximately 5-15 crates are affected. I didn't do the measurement quite right so that run cannot distinguish "true" regressions from "non-root" regressions, but even the upper bound of 15 affected crates seems relatively minimal.

Assign a default unit value to the destinations of block expressions without trailing expression,
return expressions without return value (i.e. `return;`) and conditionals without else clause.
In a straight-through read of "Syntax and Semantics," the concept of a
"reference" is used here before it is explained. Mention that and link to
the section explaining references.
In a straight-through read of "Syntax and Semantics," the first time we
meet a generic, and the first time we meet a vector, is when a Vec<T> shows
up in this example. I'm not sure that I could argue that the whole section
should appear later in the book than the ones on vectors and generics, so
instead just give the reader a brief introduction to both and a promise to
follow up later.
heap::deallocate expects a *mut u8, but here a *mut T is given as the type of the argument. This would not compile. The final code is correct, however.
Rust differs in that behavior from C: In C, the newline escapes are resolved
before anything else, and in Rust this depends on whether the backslash is
escaped itself.
A difference can be observed in the following two programs:
```c
int main()
{
printf("\\
n\n");
return 0;
}
```
```rust
fn main() {
println!("\\
n");
}
```
The first program prints two newlines, the second one prints a backslash, a
newline, the latin character n and a final newline.
I noticed the alignment was off in the error handling part of the book. This was caused because two tabs had crept into the file. I have changed these for spaces.
The motivation (other than removing boilerplate) is that this is a baby step towards a parser with error recovery.
[breaking-change] if you use any of the changed functions, you'll need to remove a try! or panictry!
