rustc: Implement custom derive (macros 1.1)
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1681] which adds support to the
compiler for first-class user-define custom `#[derive]` modes with a far more
stable API than plugins have today.
[RFC 1681]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1681-macros-1.1.md
The main features added by this commit are:
* A new `rustc-macro` crate-type. This crate type represents one which will
provide custom `derive` implementations and perhaps eventually flower into the
implementation of macros 2.0 as well.
* A new `rustc_macro` crate in the standard distribution. This crate will
provide the runtime interface between macro crates and the compiler. The API
here is particularly conservative right now but has quite a bit of room to
expand into any manner of APIs required by macro authors.
* The ability to load new derive modes through the `#[macro_use]` annotations on
other crates.
All support added here is gated behind the `rustc_macro` feature gate, both for
the library support (the `rustc_macro` crate) as well as the language features.
There are a few minor differences from the implementation outlined in the RFC,
such as the `rustc_macro` crate being available as a dylib and all symbols are
`dlsym`'d directly instead of having a shim compiled. These should only affect
the implementation, however, not the public interface.
This commit also ended up touching a lot of code related to `#[derive]`, making
a few notable changes:
* Recognized derive attributes are no longer desugared to `derive_Foo`. Wasn't
sure how to keep this behavior and *not* expose it to custom derive.
* Derive attributes no longer have access to unstable features by default, they
have to opt in on a granular level.
* The `derive(Copy,Clone)` optimization is now done through another "obscure
attribute" which is just intended to ferry along in the compiler that such an
optimization is possible. The `derive(PartialEq,Eq)` optimization was also
updated to do something similar.
---
One part of this PR which needs to be improved before stabilizing are the errors
and exact interfaces here. The error messages are relatively poor quality and
there are surprising spects of this such as `#[derive(PartialEq, Eq, MyTrait)]`
not working by default. The custom attributes added by the compiler end up
becoming unstable again when going through a custom impl.
Hopefully though this is enough to start allowing experimentation on crates.io!

syntax-[breaking-change]
Allow specification of the system V AMD64 ABI constraint.
This can be specified using `extern "sysV64" fn` on all platforms.
This ABI is used as the C ABI on unix platforms, but can only be specified there using extern "C". It was impossible to specify on other platforms. Meanwhile the win64 ABI, which was the extern "C" ABI on the windows platform could be specified on other platforms using extern "win64".
This pull request adds the the "sysV64" ABI constraint which exposes this calling convention on platforms where it is not the C ABI.
Refactor `PathListItem`s
This refactors away variant `Mod` of `ast::PathListItemKind` and refactors the remaining variant `Ident` to a struct `ast::PathListItem_`.
Improve error message when failing to parse a block
We want to catch this error:
```
if (foo)
bar;
```
as it's valid syntax in other languages, and say how to fix it.
Unfortunately it didn't care if the suggestion made sense and just
highlighted the unexpected token.
Now it attempts to parse a statement, and if it succeeds, it shows the
help message.
Fixes#35907

Specific error message for missplaced doc comments
Identify when documetation comments have been missplaced in the following places:
* After a struct element:
```rust
// file.rs:
struct X {
a: u8 /** document a */,
}
```
```bash
$ rustc file.rs
file.rs:2:11: 2:28 error: found documentation comment that doesn't
document anything
file.rs:2 a: u8 /** document a */,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
file.rs:2:11: 2:28 help: doc comments must come before what they document,
maybe a comment was intended with `//`?
```
* As the last line of a struct:
```rust
// file.rs:
struct X {
a: u8,
/// incorrect documentation
}
```
```bash
$ rustc file.rs
file.rs:3:5: 3:27 error: found a documentation comment that doesn't
document anything
file.rs:3 /// incorrect documentation
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
file.rs:3:5: 3:27 help: doc comments must come before what they document,
maybe a comment was intended with `//`?
```
* As the last line of a `fn`:
```rust
// file.rs:
fn main() {
let x = 1;
/// incorrect documentation
}
```
```bash
$ rustc file.rs
file.rs:3:5: 3:27 error: found a documentation comment that doesn't
document anything
file.rs:3 /// incorrect documentation
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix#27429, #30322
Kicking off libproc_macro
This PR introduces `libproc_macro`, which is currently quite bare-bones (just a few macro construction tools and an initial `quote!` macro).
This PR also introduces a few test cases for it, and an additional `shim` file (at `src/libsyntax/ext/proc_macro_shim.rs` to allow a facsimile usage of Macros 2.0 *today*!
Implement the `!` type
This implements the never type (`!`) and hides it behind the feature gate `#[feature(never_type)]`. With the feature gate off, things should build as normal (although some error messages may be different). With the gate on, `!` is usable as a type and diverging type variables (ie. types that are unconstrained by anything in the code) will default to `!` instead of `()`.
Take commandline arguments into account for incr. comp.
Implements the conservative strategy described in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/33727.
From now one, every time a new commandline option is added, one has to specify if it influences the incremental compilation cache. I've tried to implement this as automatic as possible: One just has to added either the `[TRACKED]` or the `[UNTRACKED]` marker next to the field. The `Options`, `CodegenOptions`, and `DebuggingOptions` definitions in `session::config` show plenty of examples.
The PR removes some cruft from `session::config::Options`, mostly unnecessary copies of flags also present in `DebuggingOptions` or `CodeGenOptions` in the same struct.
One notable removal is the `cfg` field that contained the values passed via `--cfg` commandline arguments. I chose to remove it because (1) its content is only a subset of what later is stored in `hir::Crate::config` and it's pretty likely that reading the cfgs from `Options` would not be what you wanted, and (2) we could not incorporate it into the dep-tracking hash of the `Options` struct because of how the test framework works, leaving us with a piece of untracked but vital data.
It is now recommended (just as before) to access the crate config via the `krate()` method in the HIR map.
Because the `cfg` field is not present in the `Options` struct any more, some methods in the `CompilerCalls` trait now take the crate config as an explicit parameter -- which might constitute a breaking change for plugin authors.
Implemented a smarter TokenStream concatenation system
The new algorithm performs 'aggressive compacting' during concatenation as follows:
- If the nodes' combined total total length is less than 32, we copy both of
them into a new vector and build a new leaf node.
- If one node is an internal node and the other is a 'small' leaf (length<32),
we recur down the internal node on the appropriate side.
- Otherwise, we construct a new internal node that points to them as left and
right.
This should produce notably better behavior than the current concatenation implementation.
