Fix parenthesization of subexprs containing statement boundary
This PR fixes a multitude of false negatives and false positives in the AST pretty printer's parenthesis insertion related to statement boundaries — statements which terminate unexpectedly early if there aren't parentheses.
Without this fix, the AST pretty printer (including both `stringify!` and `rustc -Zunpretty=expanded`) is prone to producing output which is not syntactically valid Rust. Invalid output is problematic because it means Rustfmt is unable to parse the output of `cargo expand`, for example, causing friction by forcing someone trying to debug a macro into reading poorly formatted code.
I believe the set of bugs fixed in this PR account for the most prevalent reason that `cargo expand` produces invalid output in real-world usage.
Fixes#98790.
## False negatives
The following is a correct program — `cargo check` succeeds.
```rust
macro_rules! m {
($e:expr) => {
match () { _ => $e }
};
}
fn main() {
m!({ 1 } - 1);
}
```
But `rustc -Zunpretty=expanded main.rs` produces output that is invalid Rust syntax, because parenthesization is needed and not being done by the pretty printer.
```rust
fn main() { match () { _ => { 1 } - 1, }; }
```
Piping this expanded code to rustfmt, it fails to parse.
```console
error: unexpected `,` in pattern

Fixed output after this PR:
```rust
fn main() { match () { _ => ({ 1 }) - 1, }; }
```
## False positives
Less problematic, but worth fixing (just like #118726).
```rust
fn main() {
let _ = match () { _ => 1 } - 1;
}
```
Output of `rustc -Zunpretty=expanded lib.rs` before this PR. There is no reason parentheses would need to be inserted there.
```rust
fn main() { let _ = (match () { _ => 1, }) - 1; }
```
After this PR:
```rust
fn main() { let _ = match () { _ => 1, } - 1; }
```
## Alternatives considered
In this PR I opted to parenthesize only the leading subexpression causing the statement boundary, rather than the entire statement. Example:
```rust
macro_rules! m {
($e:expr) => {
$e
};
}
fn main() {
m!(loop { break [1]; }[0] - 1);
}
```
This PR produces the following pretty-printed contents for fn main:
```rust
(loop { break [1]; })[0] - 1;
```
A different equally correct output would be:
```rust
(loop { break [1]; }[0] - 1);
```
I chose the one I did because it is the *only* approach used by handwritten code in the standard library and compiler. There are 4 places where parenthesization is being used to prevent a statement boundary, and in all 4, the developer has chosen to parenthesize the smallest subexpression rather than the whole statement:
