That is, change `diagnostic_outside_of_impl` and
`untranslatable_diagnostic` from `allow` to `deny`, because more than
half of the compiler has be converted to use translated diagnostics.
This commit removes more `deny` attributes than it adds `allow`
attributes, which proves that this change is warranted.
Remove `#[rustc_host]`, use internal desugaring
Also removed a way for users to explicitly specify the host param since that isn't particularly useful. This should eliminate any pain with encoding attributes across crates and etc.

Add support for making lib features internal
We have the notion of an "internal" lang feature: a feature that is never intended to be stabilized, and using which can cause ICEs and other issues without that being considered a bug.
This extends that idea to lib features as well. It is an alternative to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/115623: instead of using an attribute to declare lib features internal, we simply do this based on the name. Everything ending in `_internals` or `_internal` is considered internal.
Then we rename `core_intrinsics` to `core_intrinsics_internal`, which fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/115597.
Remove the `precise_pointer_size_matching` feature gate
`usize` and `isize` are special for pattern matching because their range might depend on the platform. To make code portable across platforms, the following is never considered exhaustive:
```rust
let x: usize = ...;
match x {
0..=18446744073709551615 => {}
}
```
Because of how rust handles constants, this also unfortunately counts `0..=usize::MAX` as non-exhaustive. The [`precise_pointer_size_matching`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/56354) feature gate was introduced both for this convenience and for the possibility that the lang team could decide to allow the above.
Since then, [half-open range patterns](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/67264) have been implemented, and since #116692 they correctly support `usize`/`isize`:
```rust
match 0usize { // exhaustive!
0..5 => {}
5.. => {}
}
```
I believe this subsumes all the use cases of the feature gate. Moreover no attempt has been made to stabilize it in the 5 years of its existence. I therefore propose we retire this feature gate.

Stabilize C string literals
RFC: https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/3348-c-str-literal.html
Tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/105723
Documentation PR (reference manual): https://github.com/rust-lang/reference/pull/1423
# Stabilization report
Stabilizes C string and raw C string literals (`c"..."` and `cr#"..."#`), which are expressions of type [`&CStr`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/core/ffi/struct.CStr.html). Both new literals require Rust edition 2021 or later.
```rust
const HELLO: &core::ffi::CStr = c"Hello, world!";
```
C strings may contain any byte other than `NUL` (`b'\x00'`), and their in-memory representation is guaranteed to end with `NUL`.
## Implementation
Originally implemented by PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/108801, which was reverted due to unintentional changes to lexer behavior in Rust editions < 2021.
The current implementation landed in PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/113476, which restricts C string literals to Rust edition >= 2021.
## Resolutions to open questions from the RFC
* Adding C character literals (`c'.'`) of type `c_char` is not part of this feature.
* Support for `c"..."` literals does not prevent `c'.'` literals from being added in the future.
* C string literals should not be blocked on making `&CStr` a thin pointer.
* It's possible to declare constant expressions of type `&'static CStr` in stable Rust (as of v1.59), so C string literals are not adding additional coupling on the internal representation of `CStr`.
* The unstable `concat_bytes!` macro should not accept `c"..."` literals.
* C strings have two equally valid `&[u8]` representations (with or without terminal `NUL`), so allowing them to be used in `concat_bytes!` would be ambiguous.
* Adding a type to represent C strings containing valid UTF-8 is not part of this feature.
* Support for a hypothetical `&Utf8CStr` may be explored in the future, should such a type be added to Rust.
Add `never_patterns` feature gate
This PR adds the feature gate and most basic parsing for the experimental `never_patterns` feature. See the tracking issue (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/118155) for details on the experiment.
`@scottmcm` has agreed to be my lang-team liaison for this experiment.
They've been deprecated for four years.
This commit includes the following changes.
- It eliminates the `rustc_plugin_impl` crate.
- It changes the language used for lints in
`compiler/rustc_driver_impl/src/lib.rs` and
`compiler/rustc_lint/src/context.rs`. External lints are now called
"loaded" lints, rather than "plugins" to avoid confusion with the old
plugins. This only has a tiny effect on the output of `-W help`.
- E0457 and E0498 are no longer used.
- E0463 is narrowed, now only relating to unfound crates, not plugins.
- The `plugin` feature was moved from "active" to "removed".
- It removes the entire plugins chapter from the unstable book.
- It removes quite a few tests, mostly all of those in
`tests/ui-fulldeps/plugin/`.
Closes#29597.
- Sort dependencies and features sections.
- Add `tidy` markers to the sorted sections so they stay sorted.
- Remove empty `[lib`] sections.
- Remove "See more keys..." comments.
Excluded files:
- rustc_codegen_{cranelift,gcc}, because they're external.
- rustc_lexer, because it has external use.
- stable_mir, because it has external use.
