This is about equally readable, a lot more terse, and stops
special-casing functions and methods.

Rollup merge of #118224 - dtolnay:rustdocsortunstable, r=fmease
Sort unstable items last in rustdoc, instead of first

As far as I can tell, this is a bug introduced inadvertently by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/77817 in Rust 1.49. Older toolchains used to sort unstable items last.

Notice how in the code before that PR, `(Unstable, Stable) => return Ordering::Greater` in src/librustdoc/html/render/mod.rs. Whereas after that PR, `(Unstable, Stable) => return Ordering::Less`.

Compare https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.48.0/std/marker/index.html vs https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.49.0/std/marker/index.html.

rustdoc: Document lack of object safety on affected traits

Closes #85138

I saw the issue didn't have any recent activity, if there is another MR for it I missed it.

I want the issue to move forward so here is my proposition.

It takes some space just before the "Implementors" section and only if the trait is **not** object
safe since it is the only case where special care must be taken in some cases and this has the
benefit of avoiding generation of HTML in (I hope) the common case.

rustdoc: use JS to inline target type impl docs into alias

Preview docs:

- https://notriddle.com/rustdoc-html-demo-5/js-trait-alias/std/io/type.Result.html

- https://notriddle.com/rustdoc-html-demo-5/js-trait-alias-compiler/rustc_middle/ty/type.PolyTraitRef.html

This pull request also includes a bug fix for trait alias inlining across crates. This means more documentation is generated, and is why ripgrep runs slower (it's a thin wrapper on top of the `grep` crate, so 5% of its docs are now the Result type).

- Before, built with rustdoc 1.75.0-nightly (aa1a71e9e 2023-10-26), Result type alias method docs are missing: http://notriddle.com/rustdoc-html-demo-5/ripgrep-js-nightly/rg/type.Result.html
- After, built with this branch, all the methods on Result are shown: http://notriddle.com/rustdoc-html-demo-5/ripgrep-js-trait-alias/rg/type.Result.html

*Review note: This is mostly just reverting https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/115201. The last commit has the new work in it.*

Fixes #115718

This is an attempt to balance three problems, each of which would
be violated by a simpler implementation:

- A type alias should show all the `impl` blocks for the target
  type, and vice versa, if they're applicable. If nothing was
  done, and rustdoc continues to match them up in HIR, this
  would not work.

- Copying the target type's docs into its aliases' HTML pages
  directly causes far too much redundant HTML text to be generated
  when a crate has large numbers of methods and large numbers
  of type aliases.

- Using JavaScript exclusively for type alias impl docs would
  be a functional regression, and could make some docs very hard
  to find for non-JS readers.

- Making sure that only applicable docs are show in the
  resulting page requires a type checkers. Do not reimplement
  the type checker in JavaScript.

So, to make it work, rustdoc stashes these type-alias-inlined docs
in a JSONP "database-lite". The file is generated in `write_shared.rs`,
included in a `<script>` tag added in `print_item.rs`, and `main.js`
takes care of patching the additional docs into the DOM.

The format of `trait.impl` and `type.impl` JS files are superficially
similar. Each line, except the JSONP wrapper itself, belongs to a crate,
and they are otherwise separate (rustdoc should be idempotent). The
"meat" of the file is HTML strings, so the frontend code is very simple.
Links are relative to the doc root, though, so the frontend needs to fix
that up, and inlined docs can reuse these files.

However, there are a few differences, caused by the sophisticated
features that type aliases have. Consider this crate graph:

```text
 ---------------------------------
 | crate A: struct Foo<T>        |
 |          type Bar = Foo<i32>  |
 |          impl X for Foo<i8>   |
 |          impl Y for Foo<i32>  |
 ---------------------------------
     |
 ----------------------------------
 | crate B: type Baz = A::Foo<i8> |
 |          type Xyy = A::Foo<i8> |
 |          impl Z for Xyy        |
 ----------------------------------
```

The type.impl/A/struct.Foo.js JS file has a structure kinda like this:

```js
JSONP({
"A": [["impl Y for Foo<i32>", "Y", "A::Bar"]],
"B": [["impl X for Foo<i8>", "X", "B::Baz", "B::Xyy"], ["impl Z for Xyy", "Z", "B::Baz"]],
});
```

When the type.impl file is loaded, only the current crate's docs are
actually used. The main reason to bundle them together is that there's
enough duplication in them for DEFLATE to remove the redundancy.

The contents of a crate are a list of impl blocks, themselves
represented as lists. The first item in the sublist is the HTML block,
the second item is the name of the trait (which goes in the sidebar),
and all others are the names of type aliases that successfully match.

This way:

- There's no need to generate these files for types that have no aliases
  in the current crate. If a dependent crate makes a type alias, it'll
  take care of generating its own docs.
- There's no need to reimplement parts of the type checker in
  JavaScript. The Rust backend does the checking, and includes its
  results in the file.
- Docs defined directly on the type alias are dropped directly in the
  HTML by `render_assoc_items`, and are accessible without JavaScript.
  The JSONP file will not list impl items that are known to be part
  of the main HTML file already.

ade7ecf909 rustdoc: rename /implementors to /impl.trait
This is shorter, avoids potential conflicts with a crate
named `implementors`[^1], and will be less confusing when JS
include files are added for type aliases.

[^1]: AFAIK, this couldn't actually cause any problems right now,
but it's simpler just to make it impossible than relying on never
having a file named `trait.Foo.js` in the crate data area.

rustdoc: show crate name beside smaller logo

*Blocked on https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/12800*

## Summary

In this PR, the crate name and version are always shown in the sidebar, even in subpages, and the lateral navigation is always shown in the sidebar, even in modules.

Clicking the crate name does the same thing clicking the logo always did: take you to the crate root (the crate's home page, at least within Rustdoc).

The Rust logo is also no longer shown by default for non-Rust docs.

## Motivation

This improves visual information density (the construct with the logo and crate name is *shorter* than the logo on its own, because it's not square) and navigation clarity (we can now see what clicking the Rust logo does, specifically).

Compare this with the layout at [Phoenix's Hexdocs] (which is what this proposal is closely based on), the old proposal on [Internals Discourse] (which always says "Rust standard library" in the sidebar, but doesn't do the side-by-side layout).

[Phoenix's Hexdocs]: https://hexdocs.pm/phoenix/1.7.7/overview.html
[Internals Discourse]: https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/poc-of-a-new-design-for-the-generated-rustdoc/11018

## Guide-level explanation

This PR cleans up some of the sidebar navigation.

It makes the logo in the desktop sidebar a bit smaller, and puts the crate name and version next to it (either beside it, or below it, depending on if there's space), making it clearer what clicking on it does: click the crate name to open the crate's home page. It also removes the Rust logo from non-official-Rust crates, again to make the navigation and supply chain clearer (since the crate name has been added, the logo is no longer necessary for navigation).

It adds a bit more clarifying information for lateral navigation. On items that don't add their own sidebar items, it just shows its siblings directly below the crate name and logo, but for other items, it shows "In crate alloc" instead of just "In alloc". It also shows the lateral navigation tools on module pages, making modules consistent with every other item.

## Drawbacks

While this actually takes up less screen real estate than the old layout on desktop, it takes up more HTML. It's also a bit more visually complex.

## Rationale and alternatives

I could do what the Internals POC did and keep the vertically stacked layout all the time, instead of doing a horizontal stack where possible. It would take up more screen real estate, though.

## Prior art

This design is lifted almost verbatim from Hexdocs. It seems to work for them. [`opentelemetry_process_propagator`], for example, has a long application name.

[`opentelemetry_process_propagator`]: https://hexdocs.pm/opentelemetry_process_propagator/OpentelemetryProcessPropagator.html

## Unresolved questions

Maybe we should encourage crate authors to include their own logo more often? It certainly helps give people a better sense of "place." This seems to be blocked on coming up with an API to do it without requiring them to host the file somewhere.

## Future possibilities

Beyond this, plenty of other changes could be made to improve the layout, like

* Fix things so that clicking an item in the sidebar doesn't cause it to scroll back to the top.
  * The [Internals demo](https://utherii.github.io/new.html) does this right: clicking an item in the sidebar changes the content area, but the sidebar itself does not change. This is nice, because clicking is cheap and I can skim the opening few paragraphs while browsing.
  * The layout of the docs sidebar causes trouble to implement this, because it's different on different pages, but at least fix this on the file browser.
* Come up with a less cluttered way to do disclosure. There's a lot of `[-]` on the page.
  * We don't lack ideas to fix this one. We have *too many*.
* Do a better job of separating local navigation (vec::Vec links to vec::IntoIter) and the table of contents (vec::Vec links to vec::Vec::new).
  * A possibility: add a Back arrow next to the "In [module]" header?

* Give readers more control of how much rustdoc shows them, and giving doc authors more control of how much it generates. Basically, https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/115660 is great, let's do it too.

But those are mostly orthogonal, not future possibilities unlocked by this change.

rustdoc-search: add impl disambiguator to duplicate assoc items

Preview (to see the difference, click the link and pay attention to the specific function that comes up):

| Before | After |
|--|--|
| [`simd<i64>, simd<i64> -> simd<i64>`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/?search=simd%3Ci64%3E%2C%20simd%3Ci64%3E%20-%3E%20simd%3Ci64%3E) | [`simd<i64>, simd<i64> -> simd<i64>`](https://notriddle.com/rustdoc-demo-html-3/impl-disambiguate-search/std/index.html?search=simd%3Ci64%3E%2C%20simd%3Ci64%3E%20-%3E%20simd%3Ci64%3E) |
| [`cow, vec -> bool`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/?search=cow%2C%20vec%20-%3E%20bool) | [`cow, vec -> bool`](https://notriddle.com/rustdoc-demo-html-3/impl-disambiguate-search/std/index.html?search=cow%2C%20vec%20-%3E%20bool)

Helps with #90929

This changes the search results, specifically, when there's more than one impl with an associated item with the same name. For example, the search queries `simd<i8> -> simd<i8>` and `simd<i64> -> simd<i64>` don't link to the same function, but most of the functions have the same names.

This change should probably be FCP-ed, especially since it adds a new anchor link format for `main.js` to handle, so that URLs like `struct.Vec.html#impl-AsMut<[T]>-for-Vec<T,+A>/method.as_mut` redirect to `struct.Vec.html#method.as_mut-2`. It's a strange design, but there are a few reasons for it:

* I'd like to avoid making the HTML bigger. Obviously, fixing this bug is going to add at least a little more data to the search index, but adding more HTML penalises viewers for the benefit of searchers.

* Breaking `struct.Vec.html#method.len` would also be a disappointment.

On the other hand:

* The path-style anchors might be less prone to link rot than the numbered anchors. It's definitely less likely to have URLs that appear to "work", but silently point at the wrong thing.

* This commit arranges the path-style anchor to redirect to the numbered anchor. Nothing stops rustdoc from doing the opposite, making path-style anchors the default and redirecting the "legacy" numbered ones.

### The bug

On the "Before" links, this example search calls for `i64`:

![image](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/assets/1593513/9431d89d-41dc-4f68-bbb1-3e2704a973d2)

But if I click any of the results, I get `f64` instead.

The PR fixes this problem by adding enough information to the search result `href` to disambiguate methods with different types but the same name.

More detailed description of the problem at:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/109422#issuecomment-1491089293

> When a struct/enum/union has multiple impls with different type parameters, it can have multiple methods that have the same name, but which are on different impls. Besides Simd, [Any](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/any/trait.Any.html?search=any%3A%3Adowncast) also demonstrates this pattern. It has three methods named `downcast`, on three different impls.
>
> When that happens, it presents a challenge in linking to the method. Normally we link like `#method.foo`. When there are multiple `foo`, we number them like `#method.foo`, `#method.foo-1`, `#method.foo-2`, etc.
>
> It also presents a challenge for our search code. Currently we store all the variants in the index, but don’t have any way to generate unambiguous URLs in the results page, or to distinguish them in the SERP.
>
> To fix this, we need three things:
>
> 1. A fragment format that fully specifies the impl type parameters when needed to disambiguate (`#impl-SimdOrd-for-Simd<i64,+LANES>/method.simd_max`)
> 2. A search index that stores methods with enough information to disambiguate the impl they were on.
> 3. A search results interface that can display multiple methods on the same type with the same name, when appropriate OR a disambiguation landing section on item pages?
>
> For reviewers: it can be hard to see the new fragment format in action since it immediately gets rewritten to the numbered form.

[rustdoc] Show enum discrimant if it is a C-like variant

Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/101337.

We currently display values for associated constant items in traits:

![image](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/assets/3050060/03e566ec-c670-47b4-8ca2-b982baa7a0f4)

And we also display constant values like [here](file:///home/imperio/rust/rust/build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/doc/std/f32/consts/constant.E.html).

I think that for coherency, we should display values of C-like enum variants.

With this change, it looks like this:

![image](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/assets/3050060/b53fbbe0-bdb1-4289-8537-f2dd4988e9ac)

As for the display of the constant value itself, I used what we already have to keep coherency.

We display the C-like variants value in the following scenario:
 1. It is a C-like variant with a value set => all the time
 2. It is a C-like variant without a value set: All other variants are C-like variants and at least one them has its value set.

Here is the result in code:

```rust
// Ax and Bx value will be displayed.
enum A {
    Ax = 12,
    Bx,
}

// Ax and Bx value will not be displayed
enum B {
    Ax,
    Bx,
}

// Bx value will not be displayed
enum C {
    Ax(u32),
    Bx,
}

// Bx value will not be displayed, Cx value will be displayed.
#[repr(u32)]
enum D {
    Ax(u32),
    Bx,
    Cx = 12,
}
```
