Treat trailing semicolon as a statement in macro call
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/61733#issuecomment-716188981

We now preserve the trailing semicolon in a macro invocation, even if
the macro expands to nothing. As a result, the following code no longer
compiles:

```rust
macro_rules! empty {
    () => { }
}

fn foo() -> bool { //~ ERROR mismatched
    { true } //~ ERROR mismatched
    empty!();
}
```

Previously, `{ true }` would be considered the trailing expression, even
though there's a semicolon in `empty!();`

This makes macro expansion more token-based.

The rustc_ast crate contains those things concerned purely with syntax that is, the AST ("abstract syntax tree"), parser, pretty-printer, lexer, macro expander, and utilities for traversing ASTs.

For more information about how these things work in rustc, see the rustc dev guide:
