Plain comments are trivial, while doc comments are not, so it feels
like this belongs to the rustc_lexer.
The specific reason to do this is the desire to use rustc_lexer in
rustdoc for syntax highlighting, without duplicating "is this a doc
comment?" logic there.
Literal error reporting cleanup
While doing some performance work, I noticed some code duplication in `librustc_parser/lexer/mod.rs`, so I cleaned it up.
This PR is probably best reviewed commit by commit.
I'm not sure what the API stability practices for `librustc_lexer` are. Four public methods in `unescape.rs` can be removed, but two are used by clippy, so I left them in for now.
I could open a PR for Rust-Analyzer when this one lands.
But how do I open a PR for clippy? (Git submodules are frustrating to work with)
Improve error messages for raw strings (#60762)
This diff improves error messages around raw strings in a few ways:
- Catch extra trailing `#` in the parser. This can't be handled in the lexer because we could be in a macro that actually expects another # (see test)
- Refactor & unify error handling in the lexer between ByteStrings and RawByteStrings
- Detect potentially intended terminators (longest sequence of "#*" is suggested)

couple more clippy fixes (let_and_return, if_same_then_else)
* summarize if-else-code with identical blocks (clippy::if_same_then_else)
* don't create variable bindings just to return the bound value immediately (clippy::let_and_return)
