Replace most uses of `pointer::offset` with `add` and `sub`
As PR title says, it replaces `pointer::offset` in compiler and standard library with `pointer::add` and `pointer::sub`. This generally makes code cleaner, easier to grasp and removes (or, well, hides) integer casts.
This is generally trivially correct, `.offset(-constant)` is just `.sub(constant)`, `.offset(usized as isize)` is just `.add(usized)`, etc. However in some cases we need to be careful with signs of things.

_split off from #100746_
This simplifies things, but requires making `CacheEncoder` non-generic.
(This was previously merged as commit 4 in #94732 and then was reverted
in #97905 because it caused a perf regression.)
This avoids the name clash with `rustc_serialize::Encoder` (a trait),
and allows lots qualifiers to be removed and imports to be simplified
(e.g. fewer `as` imports).

There are two impls of the `Encoder` trait: `opaque::Encoder` and
`opaque::FileEncoder`. The former encodes into memory and is infallible, the
latter writes to file and is fallible.
Currently, standard `Result`/`?`/`unwrap` error handling is used, but this is a
bit verbose and has non-trivial cost, which is annoying given how rare failures
are (especially in the infallible `opaque::Encoder` case).
This commit changes how `Encoder` fallibility is handled. All the `emit_*`
methods are now infallible. `opaque::Encoder` requires no great changes for
this. `opaque::FileEncoder` now implements a delayed error handling strategy.
If a failure occurs, it records this via the `res` field, and all subsequent
encoding operations are skipped if `res` indicates an error has occurred. Once
encoding is complete, the new `finish` method is called, which returns a
`Result`. In other words, there is now a single `Result`-producing method
instead of many of them.
This has very little effect on how any file errors are reported if
`opaque::FileEncoder` has any failures.
Much of this commit is boring mechanical changes, removing `Result` return
values and `?` or `unwrap` from expressions. The more interesting parts are as
follows.
- serialize.rs: The `Encoder` trait gains an `Ok` associated type. The
`into_inner` method is changed into `finish`, which returns
`Result<Vec<u8>, !>`.
- opaque.rs: The `FileEncoder` adopts the delayed error handling
strategy. Its `Ok` type is a `usize`, returning the number of bytes
written, replacing previous uses of `FileEncoder::position`.
- Various methods that take an encoder now consume it, rather than being
passed a mutable reference, e.g. `serialize_query_result_cache`.
This commit updates the signatures of all diagnostic functions to accept
types that can be converted into a `DiagnosticMessage`. This enables
existing diagnostic calls to continue to work as before and Fluent
identifiers to be provided. The `SessionDiagnostic` derive just
generates normal diagnostic calls, so these APIs had to be modified to
accept Fluent identifiers.
In addition, loading of the "fallback" Fluent bundle, which contains the
built-in English messages, has been implemented.
Each diagnostic now has "arguments" which correspond to variables in the
Fluent messages (necessary to render a Fluent message) but no API for
adding arguments has been added yet. Therefore, diagnostics (that do not
require interpolation) can be converted to use Fluent identifiers and
will be output as before.
This is no longer used by the compiler itself, and removing this support opens
the door to massively simplifying the Decodable/Decoder API by dropping the
self-describing deserialization support (necessary for JSON).
`Decoder` has two impls:
- opaque: this impl is already partly infallible, i.e. in some places it
currently panics on failure (e.g. if the input is too short, or on a
bad `Result` discriminant), and in some places it returns an error
(e.g. on a bad `Option` discriminant). The number of places where
either happens is surprisingly small, just because the binary
representation has very little redundancy and a lot of input reading
can occur even on malformed data.
- json: this impl is fully fallible, but it's only used (a) for the
`.rlink` file production, and there's a `FIXME` comment suggesting it
should change to a binary format, and (b) in a few tests in
non-fundamental ways. Indeed #85993 is open to remove it entirely.
And the top-level places in the compiler that call into decoding just
abort on error anyway. So the fallibility is providing little value, and
getting rid of it leads to some non-trivial performance improvements.
Much of this commit is pretty boring and mechanical. Some notes about
a few interesting parts:
- The commit removes `Decoder::{Error,error}`.
- `InternIteratorElement::intern_with`: the impl for `T` now has the same
optimization for small counts that the impl for `Result<T, E>` has,
because it's now much hotter.
- Decodable impls for SmallVec, LinkedList, VecDeque now all use
`collect`, which is nice; the one for `Vec` uses unsafe code, because
that gave better perf on some benchmarks.
Optimize `impl_read_unsigned_leb128`
I see instruction count improvements of up to 3.5% locally with these changes, mostly on the smaller benchmarks.
r? `@michaelwoerister`
since the serialization format isn't self-describing we need a way to detect
when encoder and decoder don't match up. but that doesn't have to
be utf8 validation for strings, which does cost a few % of performance.
Instead we can use a marker byte at the end to be reasonably
sure that we're dealing with a string and it wasn't overwritten in some
way.
The PR had some unforseen perf regressions that are not as easy to find.
Revert the PR for now.
This reverts commit 6ae8912a3e, reversing
changes made to 86d6d2b738.
Since RFC 3052 soft deprecated the authors field anyway, hiding it from
crates.io, docs.rs, and making Cargo not add it by default, and it is
not generally up to date/useful information, we should remove it from
crates in this repo.
Allow for reading raw bytes from rustc_serialize::Decoder without unsafe code
The current `read_raw_bytes` method requires using `MaybeUninit` and `unsafe`. I don't think this is necessary. Let's see if a safe interface has any performance drawbacks.
This is a followup to #83273 and will make it easier to rebase #82183.

The signed LEB128 decoding function used a hardcoded constant of 64
instead of the number of bits in the type of integer being decoded,
which resulted in incorrect results for some inputs. Fix this, make the
decoding more consistent with the unsigned version, and increase the
LEB128 encoding and decoding test coverage.
Reduce a large memory spike that happens during serialization by writing
the incr comp structures to file by way of a fixed-size buffer, rather
than an unbounded vector.
Effort was made to keep the instruction count close to that of the
previous implementation. However, buffered writing to a file inherently
has more overhead than writing to a vector, because each write may
result in a handleable error. To reduce this overhead, arrangements are
made so that each LEB128-encoded integer can be written to the buffer
with only one capacity and error check. Higher-level optimizations in
which entire composite structures can be written with one capacity and
error check are possible, but would require much more work.
The performance is mostly on par with the previous implementation, with
small to moderate instruction count regressions. The memory reduction is
significant, however, so it seems like a worth-while trade-off.
