Much like the previous commit.
I think the removal of "the token" in each message is fine here. There
are many more error messages that mention tokens without saying "the
token" than those that do say it.
When suggesting a type on inference error, do not use `{closure@..}`.
Instead, replace with an appropriate `fn` ptr.
On the error message, use `short_ty_string` and write long types to
disk.

Fix#123630.
static mut: allow mutable reference to arbitrary types, not just slices and arrays
For historical reasons, we allow this:
```rust
static mut ARRAY: &'static mut [isize] = &mut [1];
```
However, we do not allow this:
```rust
static mut INT: &'static mut isize = &mut 1;
```
I think that's terribly inconsistent. I don't care much for `static mut`, but we have to keep it around for backwards compatibility and so we have to keep supporting it properly in the compiler. In recent refactors of how we deal with mutability of data in `static` and `const`, I almost made a fatal mistake since I tested `static mut INT: &'static mut isize = &mut 1` and concluded that we don't allow such `'static` mutable references even inside `static mut`. After all, nobody would expect this to be allowed only for arrays and slices, right?!?? So for the sake of our own sanity, and of whoever else reverse engineers these rules in the future to understand what the Rust compiler accepts or does not accept, I propose that we accept this for all types, not just arrays and slices.
In `report_fullfillment_errors` push back `T: Sized`, `T: WellFormed`
and coercion errors to the end of the list. The pre-existing
deduplication logic eliminates redundant errors better that way, keeping
the resulting output with fewer errors than before, while also having
more detail.
Indexing is similar to method calls in having an arbitrary
left-hand-side and then something on the right, which is the main part
of the expression. Method calls already have a span for that right part,
but indexing does not. This means that long method chains that use
indexing have really bad spans, especially when the indexing panics and
that span in coverted into a panic location.
This does the same thing as method calls for the AST and HIR, storing an
extra span which is then put into the `fn_span` field in THIR.
