Document that `assert!` format arguments are evaluated lazily
It can be useful to do some computation in `assert!` format arguments, in order to get better error messages. For example:
```rust
assert!(
some_condition,
"The state is invalid. Details: {}",
expensive_call_to_get_debugging_info(),
);
```
It seems like `assert!` only evaluates the format arguments if the assertion fails, which is useful but doesn't appear to be documented anywhere. This PR documents the behavior and adds some tests.
Don't fail to remove files if they are missing
In the backend we may want to remove certain temporary files, but in
certain other situations these files might not be produced in the first
place. We don't exactly care about that, and the intent is really that
these files are gone after a certain point in the backend.
Here we unify the backend file removing calls to use `ensure_removed`
which will attempt to delete a file, but will not fail if it does not
exist (anymore).
The tradeoff to this approach is, of course, that we may miss instances
were we are attempting to remove files at wrong paths due to some bug –
compilation would silently succeed but the temporary files would remain
there somewhere.
To digit simplification
I found out the other day that all the ascii digits have the first four bits as one would hope them to. (Eg. char `2` ends `0b0010`). There are two bits to indicate it's in the digit range ( `0b0011_0000`). If it is a true digit then all the higher bits aside from these two will be 0 (as ascii is the lowest part of the unicode u32 spectrum). So XORing with `0b11_0000` should mean we either get the number 0-9 or alternativly we get a larger number in the u32 space. If we get something that's not 0-9 then it will be discarded as it will be greater than the radix.
The code seems so fast though that there's quite a lot of noise in the benchmarks so it's not that easy to prove conclusively that it's faster as well as less instructions.
The non-fast path I was toying with as well wondering if we could do this as then we'd only have one return and less instructions still:
```
match self {
'a'..='z' => self as u32 - 'a' as u32 + 10,
'A'..='Z' => self as u32 - 'A' as u32 + 10,
_ => { radix = 10; self as u32 ^ ASCII_DIGIT_MASK},
}
```
Here's the [godbolt](https://godbolt.org/z/883c9n).
( H/T to ``@byteshadow`` for pointing out xor was what I needed)
Add 'consider using' message to overflowing_literals
Fixes#79744.
Ironically, the `overflowing_literals` handler for binary or hex already
had this message! You would think it would be the other way around :)

Only store a LocalDefId in some HIR nodes
Some HIR nodes are guaranteed to be HIR owners: Item, TraitItem, ImplItem, ForeignItem and MacroDef.
As a consequence, we do not need to store the `HirId`'s `local_id`, and we can directly store a `LocalDefId`.
This allows to avoid a bit of the dance with `tcx.hir().local_def_id` and `tcx.hir().local_def_id_to_hir_id` mappings.
validation: fix invalid-fn-ptr error message
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/82061 changed the code here to print an `ImmTy` instead of a `ScalarMaybeUninit`; that was an accident. So go back to printing a `ScalarMaybeUninit`.

avoid full-slicing slices
If we already have a slice, there is no need to get another full-range slice from that, just use the original.

Fix ES5 errors (IE11)
rustdoc is supposed to run on IE11 but someone reported me that it wasn't. I just confirmed it by using `es-check` with the `es5` option like this:
```
$ es-check es5 src/librustdoc/html/static/*.js
```
The PR fixes those issues and add CI checks to prevent regressions.
`@Mark-Simulacrum:` I added checks in the CI, but not sure if it's the correct way to do it. Any help on that side would be very appreciated!

Ensures `make` tests run under /bin/dash (if available), like CI, and fixes a Makefile
Note: This cherrypicks #81688 (`@pnkfelix)`
Updates `tools.mk` to explicitly require `SHELL := /bin/dash`, since CI uses `dash` but other environments (including developer local machines) may default to `bash`.
Replaces bash-specific shell command in one Makefile with a dash-compatible alternative, and re-enables the affected Makefile test.
Removes apparently redundant definition of `UNAME`.
