Add some more attribute validation
This adds some more validation for the position of attributes:
* `link` is only valid on an `extern` block
* `windows_subsystem` and `no_builtins` are only valid at the crate level
Implement `#[rustc_must_implement_one_of]` attribute
This PR adds a new attribute — `#[rustc_must_implement_one_of]` that allows changing the "minimal complete definition" of a trait. It's similar to GHC's minimal `{-# MINIMAL #-}` pragma, though `#[rustc_must_implement_one_of]` is weaker atm.
Such attribute was long wanted. It can be, for example, used in `Read` trait to make transitions to recently added `read_buf` easier:
```rust
#[rustc_must_implement_one_of(read, read_buf)]
pub trait Read {
fn read(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize> {
let mut buf = ReadBuf::new(buf);
self.read_buf(&mut buf)?;
Ok(buf.filled_len())
}
fn read_buf(&mut self, buf: &mut ReadBuf<'_>) -> Result<()> {
default_read_buf(|b| self.read(b), buf)
}
}
impl Read for Ty0 {}
//^ This will fail to compile even though all `Read` methods have default implementations
// Both of these will compile just fine
impl Read for Ty1 {
fn read(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize> { /* ... */ }
}
impl Read for Ty2 {
fn read_buf(&mut self, buf: &mut ReadBuf<'_>) -> Result<()> { /* ... */ }
}
```
For now, this is implemented as an internal attribute to start experimenting on the design of this feature. In the future we may want to extend it:
- Allow arbitrary requirements like `a | (b & c)`
- Allow multiple requirements like
- ```rust
#[rustc_must_implement_one_of(a, b)]
#[rustc_must_implement_one_of(c, d)]
```
- Make it appear in rustdoc documentation
- Change the syntax?
- Etc
Eventually, we should make an RFC and make this (or rather similar) attribute public.

I'm fairly new to compiler development and not at all sure if the implementation makes sense, but at least it passes tests :)
Split inline const to two feature gates and mark expression position inline const complete
This PR splits inline const in pattern position into its own `#![feature(inline_const_pat)]` feature gate, and make the usage in expression position complete.
I think I have resolved most outstanding issues related to `inline_const` with #89561 and other PRs. The only thing left that I am aware of is #90150 and the lack of lifetime checks when inline const is used in pattern position (FIXME in #89561). Implementation-wise when used in pattern position it has to be lowered during MIR building while in expression position it's evaluated only when monomorphizing (just like normal consts), so it makes some sense to separate it into two feature gates so one can progress without being blocked by another.
``@rustbot`` label: T-compiler F-inline_const
This function parameter attribute was introduced in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/44866 as an intermediate step in implementing `impl Trait`, it's not necessary or used anywhere by itself.
Stabilize `const_raw_ptr_deref` for `*const T`
This stabilizes dereferencing immutable raw pointers in const contexts.
It does not stabilize `*mut T` dereferencing. This is behind the
same feature gate as mutable references.
closes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/51911
This stabilizes dereferencing immutable raw pointers in const contexts.
It does not stabilize `*mut T` dereferencing. This is placed behind the
`const_raw_mut_ptr_deref` feature gate.
Split doc_cfg and doc_auto_cfg features
Part of #90497.
With this feature, `doc_cfg` won't pick up items automatically anymore.

Clarify what to do with accepted feature gates
The documentation only referenced `removed.rs`, but feature gates for
accepted features move to `accepted.rs`.
Implement coherence checks for negative trait impls
The main purpose of this PR is to be able to [move Error trait to core](https://github.com/rust-lang/project-error-handling/issues/3).
This feature is necessary to handle the following from impl on box.
```rust
impl From<&str> for Box<dyn Error> { ... }
```
Without having negative traits affect coherence moving the error trait into `core` and moving that `From` impl to `alloc` will cause the from impl to no longer compiler because of a potential future incompatibility. The compiler indicates that `&str` _could_ introduce an `Error` impl in the future, and thus prevents the `From` impl in `alloc` that would cause overlap with `From<E: Error> for Box<dyn Error>`. Adding `impl !Error for &str {}` with the negative trait coherence feature will disable this error by encoding a stability guarantee that `&str` will never implement `Error`, making the `From` impl compile.
We would have this in `alloc`:
```rust
impl From<&str> for Box<dyn Error> {} // A
impl<E> From<E> for Box<dyn Error> where E: Error {} // B
```
and this in `core`:
```rust
trait Error {}
impl !Error for &str {}
```

Add `const_eval_select` intrinsic
Adds an intrinsic that calls a given function when evaluated at compiler time, but generates a call to another function when called at runtime.
