Rollup merge of #121071 - nnethercote:fewer-delayed-bugs, r=oli-obk

Use fewer delayed bugs.

For some cases where it's clear that an error has already occurred, e.g.:
- there's a comment stating exactly that, or
- things like HIR lowering, where we are lowering an error kind

The commit also tweaks some comments around delayed bug sites.
