Recover from for-else and while-else
This recovers from attempts at writing for-else or while-else loops, which might help users coming from e.g. Python.
```rs
for _ in 0..0 {
// ...
} else {
// ...
}
```
Combined with trying to store it in a let binding, the current diagnostic can be a bit confusing. It mentions let-else and suggests wrapping the loop in parentheses, which the user probably doesn't want. let-else doesn't make sense for `for` and `while` loops, as they are of type `()` (which already is an irrefutable pattern and doesn't need let-else).

Some questions:
- Can the wording for the error message be improved? Would "for...else loops are not allowed" fit better?
- Should we be more "conservative" in case we want to support this in the future (i.e. say "for...else loops are **currently** not allowed/supported")?
- Is there a better way than storing a `&'static str` for the loop type? It is used for substituting the placeholder in the locale file (since it can emit either `for...else` or `while...else`). Maybe there is an enum I could use that I couldn't find
Make `x doc --open` work on every book
Before this PR, the `--open` flag had to be configured explicitly for every book, and most of them didn't configure it, resulting in the flag silently failing in all but two books.
In this PR, the code to check for the `--open` flag is in the underlying `RustbookSrc` step rather than all the individual steps. This is done by passing the parent step as a field of `RustbookSrc`, so that we can check for the correct step in `maybe_open_in_browser`.
This was part of a larger change that in the end wasn't worth it. Still, I think it could be useful as-is.
This was added to in 2019 to speed up rebuild times when LLVM was
modified. Now that download-ci-llvm exists, I don't think it makes sense
to support an unsound option like this that can lead to miscompiles; and
the code cleanup is nice too.
Name LLVM anonymous constants by a hash of their contents
This makes the names stable between different versions of a crate unlike the `AllocId` naming, making LLVM IR comparisons with `llvm-diff` more practical.
Add `Option::as_`(`mut_`)`slice`
This adds the following functions:
* `Option<T>::as_slice(&self) -> &[T]`
* `Option<T>::as_mut_slice(&mut self) -> &[T]`
The `as_slice` and `as_mut_slice_mut` functions benefit from an optimization that makes them completely branch-free. ~~Unfortunately, this optimization is not available on by-value Options, therefore the `into_slice` implementations use the plain `match` + `slice::from_ref` approach.~~
Note that the optimization's soundness hinges on the fact that either the niche optimization makes the offset of the `Some(_)` contents zero or the mempory layout of `Option<T>` is equal to that of `Option<MaybeUninit<T>>`.
The idea has been discussed on [Zulip](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/219381-t-libs/topic/Option.3A.3Aas_slice). Notably the idea for the `as_slice_mut` and `into_slice´ methods came from `@cuviper` and `@Sp00ph` hardened the optimization against niche-optimized Options.
The [rust playground](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=nightly&mode=release&edition=2021&gist=74f8e4239a19f454c183aaf7b4a969e0) shows that the generated assembly of the optimized method is basically only a copy while the naive method generates code containing a `test dx, dx` on x86_64.

Remove or document uses of #[rustc_box] in library
r? `@thomcc`
Only one of these uses is tested for in the rustc-perf benchmark suite. The impact there on compile time is somewhat dramatic, but I am inclined to make this change as a simplification to the library and wait for people to complain if it explodes their compilation time. I think in the absence of data or reports from users about what code paths really matter, if we are optimizing for compilation time, it's hard to argue against using `#[rustc_box]` everywhere we currently call `Box::new`.
Extend `CodegenBackend` trait with a function returning the translation
resources from the codegen backend, which can be added to the complete
list of resources provided to the emitter.

Instead of loading the Fluent resources for every crate in
`rustc_error_messages`, each crate generates typed identifiers for its
own diagnostics and creates a static which are pulled together in the
`rustc_driver` crate and provided to the diagnostic emitter.

There are still various places (marked with FIXMEs) that assume all pointers
have the same size and alignment. Fixing this requires parsing non-default
address spaces in the data layout string, which will be done in a followup.
This commit adds LLVM Kernel Control Flow Integrity (KCFI) support to
the Rust compiler. It initially provides forward-edge control flow
protection for operating systems kernels for Rust-compiled code only by
aggregating function pointers in groups identified by their return and
parameter types. (See llvm/llvm-project@cff5bef.)
Forward-edge control flow protection for C or C++ and Rust -compiled
code "mixed binaries" (i.e., for when C or C++ and Rust -compiled code
share the same virtual address space) will be provided in later work as
part of this project by identifying C char and integer type uses at the
time types are encoded (see Type metadata in the design document in the
tracking issue #89653).
LLVM KCFI can be enabled with -Zsanitizer=kcfi.

This ensures that the error is printed even for unused variables,
as well as unifying the handling between the LLVM and GCC backends.
This also fixes unusual behavior around exported Rust-defined variables
with linkage attributes. With the previous behavior, it appears to be
impossible to define such a variable such that it can actually be imported
and used by another crate. This is because on the importing side, the
variable is required to be a pointer, but on the exporting side, the
type checker rejects static variables of pointer type because they do
not implement `Sync`. Even if it were possible to import such a type, it
appears that code generation on the importing side would add an unexpected
additional level of pointer indirection, which would break type safety.
This highlighted that the semantics of linkage on Rust-defined variables
is different to linkage on foreign items. As such, we now model the
difference with two different codegen attributes: linkage for Rust-defined
variables, and import_linkage for foreign items.
This change gives semantics to the test
src/test/ui/linkage-attr/auxiliary/def_illtyped_external.rs which was
previously expected to fail to compile. Therefore, convert it into a
test that is expected to successfully compile.
The update to the GCC backend is speculative and untested.
