make `mk_attr_id` part of `ParseSess`
Updates #48685
The current `mk_attr_id` uses the `AtomicU32` type, which is not very efficient and adds a lot of lock contention in a parallel environment.
This PR refers to the task list in #48685, uses `mk_attr_id` as a method of the `AttrIdGenerator` struct, and adds a new field `attr_id_generator` to `ParseSess`.
`AttrIdGenerator` uses the `WorkerLocal`, which has two advantages: 1. `Cell` is more efficient than `AtomicU32`, and does not increase any lock contention. 2. We put the index of the work thread in the first few bits of the generated `AttrId`, so that the `AttrId` generated in different threads can be easily guaranteed to be unique.

Initial implementation of dyn*
This PR adds extremely basic and incomplete support for [dyn*](https://smallcultfollowing.com/babysteps//blog/2022/03/29/dyn-can-we-make-dyn-sized/). The goal is to get something in tree behind a flag to make collaboration easier, and also to make sure the implementation so far is not unreasonable. This PR does quite a few things:
* Introduce `dyn_star` feature flag
* Adds parsing for `dyn* Trait` types
* Defines `dyn* Trait` as a sized type
* Adds support for explicit casts, like `42usize as dyn* Debug`
* Including const evaluation of such casts
* Adds codegen for drop glue so things are cleaned up properly when a `dyn* Trait` object goes out of scope
* Adds codegen for method calls, at least for methods that take `&self`
Quite a bit is still missing, but this gives us a starting point. Note that this is never intended to become stable surface syntax for Rust, but rather `dyn*` is planned to be used as an implementation detail for async functions in dyn traits.
Joint work with `@nikomatsakis` and `@compiler-errors.`

The primary purpose of this commit is to introduce the
dyn_star flag so we can begin experimenting with implementation.
In order to have something to do in the feature gate test, we also add
parser support for `dyn* Trait` objects. These are currently treated
just like `dyn Trait` objects, but this will change in the future.
Note that for now `dyn* Trait` is experimental syntax to enable
implementing some of the machinery needed for async fn in dyn traits
without fully supporting the feature.
The `visit_path_segment` method of both the AST and HIR visitors has a
`path_span` argument that isn't necessary. This commit removes it.
There are two very small and inconsequential functional changes.
- One call to `NodeCollector::insert` now is passed a path segment
identifier span instead of a full path span. This span is only used in
a panic message printed in the case of an internal compiler bug.
- Likewise, one call to `LifetimeCollectVisitor::record_elided_anchor`
now uses a path segment identifier span instead of a full path span.
This span is used to make some `'_` lifetimes.
`To` is better than `Create` for indicating that this is a non-consuming
conversion, rather than creating something out of nothing.
And the addition of `Attr` is because the current names makes them sound
like they relate to `TokenStream`, but really they relate to
`AttrTokenStream`.
These two type names are long and have long matching prefixes. I find
them hard to read, especially in combinations like
`AttrAnnotatedTokenStream::new(vec![AttrAnnotatedTokenTree::Token(..)])`.
This commit renames them as `AttrToken{Stream,Tree}`.
Suggest removing unnecessary prefix let in patterns
Helps with #101291, though I think `@estebank` probably wants this:
> Finally, I think it'd be nice if we could detect that we don't know for sure and "just" swallow the rest of the expression (find the next ; accounting for nested braces) or the end of the item (easier).
... to be implemented before we close that issue out completely.
`BindingAnnotation` refactor
* `ast::BindingMode` is deleted and replaced with `hir::BindingAnnotation` (which is moved to `ast`)
* `BindingAnnotation` is changed from an enum to a tuple struct e.g. `BindingAnnotation(ByRef::No, Mutability::Mut)`
* Associated constants added for convenience `BindingAnnotation::{NONE, REF, MUT, REF_MUT}`
One goal is to make it more clear that `BindingAnnotation` merely represents syntax `ref mut` and not the actual binding mode. This was especially confusing since we had `ast::BindingMode`->`hir::BindingAnnotation`->`thir::BindingMode`.
I wish there were more symmetry between `ByRef` and `Mutability` (variant) naming (maybe `Mutable::Yes`?), and I also don't love how long the name `BindingAnnotation` is, but this seems like the best compromise. Ideas welcome.
Replace `rustc_data_structures::thin_vec::ThinVec` with `thin_vec::ThinVec`
`rustc_data_structures::thin_vec::ThinVec` looks like this:
```
pub struct ThinVec<T>(Option<Box<Vec<T>>>);
```
It's just a zero word if the vector is empty, but requires two
allocations if it is non-empty. So it's only usable in cases where the
vector is empty most of the time.
This commit removes it in favour of `thin_vec::ThinVec`, which is also
word-sized, but stores the length and capacity in the same allocation as
the elements. It's good in a wider variety of situation, e.g. in enum
variants where the vector is usually/always non-empty.
The commit also:
- Sorts some `Cargo.toml` dependency lists, to make additions easier.
- Sorts some `use` item lists, to make additions easier.
- Changes `clean_trait_ref_with_bindings` to take a
`ThinVec<TypeBinding>` rather than a `&[TypeBinding]`, because this
avoid some unnecessary allocations.
