bring TyCtxt into scope
got comments both from @eddyb and @nikomatsakis (via https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/44505) that we should always put `TyCtxt` in scope
should I just go and import it at other places in the codebase or we just keep doing small improvements?
Individualize feature gates for const fn invocation
This PR changes the meaning of `#![feature(const_fn)]` so it is only required to declare a const fn but not to call one. Based on discussion at #24111. I was hoping we could have an FCP here in order to move that conversation forward.
This sets the stage for future stabilization of the constness of several functions in the standard library (listed below), so could someone please tag the lang team for review.
- `std::cell`
- `Cell::new`
- `RefCell::new`
- `UnsafeCell::new`
- `std::mem`
- `size_of`
- `align_of`
- `std::ptr`
- `null`
- `null_mut`
- `std::sync`
- `atomic`
- `Atomic{Bool,Ptr,Isize,Usize}::new`
- `once`
- `Once::new`
- primitives
- `{integer}::min_value`
- `{integer}::max_value`
Some other functions are const but they are also unstable or hidden, e.g. `Unique::new` so they don't have to be considered at this time.
After this stabilization, the following `*_INIT` constants in the standard library can be deprecated. I wasn't sure whether to include those deprecations in the current PR.
- `std::sync`
- `atomic`
- `ATOMIC_{BOOL,ISIZE,USIZE}_INIT`
- `once`
- `ONCE_INIT`
(The idea is that the StorageDead marks the point where the memory can
be deallocated, and the EndRegion is marking where borrows of that
memory can no longer legally exist.)
Evaluate fixed-length array length expressions lazily.
This is in preparation for polymorphic array lengths (aka `[T; T::A]`) and const generics.
We need deferred const-evaluation to break cycles when array types show up in positions which require knowing the array type to typeck the array length, e.g. the array type is in a `where` clause.
The final step - actually passing bounds in scope to array length expressions from the parent - is not done because it still produces cycles when *normalizing* `ParamEnv`s, and @nikomatsakis' in-progress lazy normalization work is needed to deal with that uniformly.
However, the changes here are still useful to unlock work on const generics, which @EpicatSupercell manifested interest in, and I might be mentoring them for that, but we need this baseline first.

Migrate a slew of metadata methods to queries
This PR intends to make more progress on #41417, knocking off some low-hanging fruit.
Closes#44190

Debugflag: -Z emit-end-regions
Skip EndRegion emission by default. Use `-Z emit-end-regions` to reenable it.
The main intent is to fix cases where `EndRegion` emission is believed to be causing excess peak memory pressure.
It may also be a welcome change to people inspecting the MIR output who find the EndRegions to be a distraction.
(In later follow-up PR's I will put in safe-guards against using the current mir-borrowck without enabling `EndRegion` emission. But I wanted this PR to be minimal, in part because we may wish to backport it to the beta channel if we find that it reduces peak memory usage significantly.)
Previously a `Symbol` was stored there, but this ended up causing hash
collisions in situations that otherwise shouldn't have a hash collision. Only
the symbol's string value was hashed, but it was possible for distinct symbols
to have the same string value, fooling various calcuations into thinking that
these paths *didn't* need disambiguating data when in fact they did!
By storing `InternedString` instead we're hopefully triggering all the exising
logic to disambiguate paths with same-name `Symbol` but actually distinct
locations.
This commit moves the calculation of the `LanguageItems` structure into a
query rather than being calculated before the `TyCtxt` exists, with the eventual
end goal of removing some `CrateStore` methods.

Forward-compatibly deny drops in constants if they *could* actually run.
This is part of #40036, specifically the checks for user-defined destructor invocations on locals which *may not* have been moved away, the motivating example being:
```rust
const FOO: i32 = (HasDrop {...}, 0).1;
```
The evaluation of constant MIR will continue to create `'static` slots for more locals than is necessary (if `Storage{Live,Dead}` statements are ignored), but it shouldn't be misusable.

Fix destruction extent lookup during HIR -> HAIR translation
My method for finding the destruction extent, if any, from cbed41a174aad44e069bec09bf1e502591c132ae (in #39409), was buggy in that it sometimes failed to find an extent that was nonetheless present.
This fixes that, and is cleaner code to boot.
