This will allow us to eagerly translate messages on a top-level
diagnostic, such as a `LintDiagnostic`. As a bonus, we can remove the
awkward closure passed into Subdiagnostic and make better use of
`Into`.
Use `std::mem::{size_of, size_of_val, align_of, align_of_val}` from the
prelude instead of importing or qualifying them.
These functions were added to all preludes in Rust 1.80.
Make it so that every structured error annotated with `#[derive(Diagnostic)]` that has a field of type `Ty<'_>`, the printing of that value into a `String` will look at the thread-local storage `TyCtxt` in order to shorten to a length appropriate with the terminal width. When this happen, the resulting error will have a note with the file where the full type name was written to.
```
error[E0618]: expected function, found `((..., ..., ..., ...), ..., ..., ...)``
--> long.rs:7:5
|
6 | fn foo(x: D) { //~ `x` has type `(...
| - `x` has type `((..., ..., ..., ...), ..., ..., ...)`
7 | x(); //~ ERROR expected function, found `(...
| ^--
| |
| call expression requires function
|
= note: the full name for the type has been written to 'long.long-type-14182675702747116984.txt'
= note: consider using `--verbose` to print the full type name to the console
```
Highlight clarifying information in "expected/found" error
When the expected and found types have the same textual representation, we add clarifying in parentheses. We now visually highlight it in the output.
Detect a corner case where the clarifying information would be the same for both types and skip it, as it doesn't add anything useful.

Make it so more type-system types can be printed in a shortened version (like `Predicate`s).
Centralize printing the information about the "full type name path".
Make the "long type path" for the file where long types are written part of `Diag`, so that it becomes easier to keep track of it, and ensure it will always will be printed out last in the diagnostic by making its addition to the output implicit.
Tweak the shortening of types in "expected/found" labels.
Remove dead file `note.rs`.
`rustc_span::symbol` defines some things that are re-exported from
`rustc_span`, such as `Symbol` and `sym`. But it doesn't re-export some
closely related things such as `Ident` and `kw`. So you can do `use
rustc_span::{Symbol, sym}` but you have to do `use
rustc_span::symbol::{Ident, kw}`, which is inconsistent for no good
reason.
This commit re-exports `Ident`, `kw`, and `MacroRulesNormalizedIdent`,
and changes many `rustc_span::symbol::` qualifiers in `compiler/` to
`rustc_span::`. This is a 200+ net line of code reduction, mostly
because many files with two `use rustc_span` items can be reduced to
one.
* instead simply set the primary message inside the lint decorator functions
* it used to be this way before [#]101986 which introduced `msg` to prevent
good path delayed bugs (which no longer exist) from firing under certain
circumstances when lints were suppressed / silenced
* this is no longer necessary for various reasons I presume
* it shaves off complexity and makes further changes easier to implement
Prior to the previous commit, `#[rust_lint_diagnostics]` attributes
could only be used on methods with an `impl Into<{D,Subd}iagMessage>`
parameter. But there are many other nearby diagnostic methods (e.g.
`Diag::span`) that don't take such a parameter and should have the
attribute.
This commit adds the missing attribute to these `Diag` methods. This
requires adding some missing
`#[allow(rustc::diagnostic_outside_of_impl)]` markers at call sites to
these methods.
Count stashed errors again
Stashed diagnostics are such a pain. Their "might be emitted, might not" semantics messes with lots of things.
#120828 and #121206 made some big changes to how they work, improving some things, but still leaving some problems, as seen by the issues caused by #121206. This PR aims to fix all of them by restricting them in a way that eliminates the "might be emitted, might not" semantics while still allowing 98% of their benefit. Details in the individual commit logs.
r? `@oli-obk`
Stashed errors used to be counted as errors, but could then be
cancelled, leading to `ErrorGuaranteed` soundness holes. #120828 changed
that, closing the soundness hole. But it introduced other difficulties
because you sometimes have to account for pending stashed errors when
making decisions about whether errors have occured/will occur and it's
easy to overlook these.
This commit aims for a middle ground.
- Stashed errors (not warnings) are counted immediately as emitted
errors, avoiding the possibility of forgetting to consider them.
- The ability to cancel (or downgrade) stashed errors is eliminated, by
disallowing the use of `steal_diagnostic` with errors, and introducing
the more restrictive methods `try_steal_{modify,replace}_and_emit_err`
that can be used instead.
Other things:
- `DiagnosticBuilder::stash` and `DiagCtxt::stash_diagnostic` now both
return `Option<ErrorGuaranteed>`, which enables the removal of two
`delayed_bug` calls and one `Ty::new_error_with_message` call. This is
possible because we store error guarantees in
`DiagCtxt::stashed_diagnostics`.
- Storing the guarantees also saves us having to maintain a counter.
- Calls to the `stashed_err_count` method are no longer necessary
alongside calls to `has_errors`, which is a nice simplification, and
eliminates two more `span_delayed_bug` calls and one FIXME comment.
- Tests are added for three of the four fixed PRs mentioned below.
- `issue-121108.rs`'s output improved slightly, omitting a non-useful
error message.
