Use `as_deref` in compiler (but only where it makes sense)
This simplifies some code :3
(there are some changes that are not exacly `as_deref`, but more like "clever `Option`/`Result` method use")
FIX - ambiguous Diagnostic link in docs
UPDATE - rename diagnostic_items to IntoDiagnostic and AddToDiagnostic
[Gardening] FIX - formatting via `x fmt`
FIX - rebase conflicts. NOTE: Confirm wheather or not we want to handle TargetDataLayoutErrorsWrapper this way
DELETE - unneeded allow attributes in Handler method
FIX - broken test
FIX - Rebase conflict
UPDATE - rename residual _SessionDiagnostic and fix LintDiag link
Suggest removing unnecessary prefix let in patterns
Helps with #101291, though I think `@estebank` probably wants this:
> Finally, I think it'd be nice if we could detect that we don't know for sure and "just" swallow the rest of the expression (find the next ; accounting for nested braces) or the end of the item (easier).
... to be implemented before we close that issue out completely.
Convert diagnostics in parser/expr to SessionDiagnostic
This migrates all the easy cases in `rustc_parse::parser::expr` to `SessionDiagnostic`s, I've left things such as `multipart_suggestion`s out for now in the hopes of a derive API being developed soon.
In some places we use `Vec<Attribute>` and some places we use
`ThinVec<Attribute>` (a.k.a. `AttrVec`). This results in various points
where we have to convert between `Vec` and `ThinVec`.
This commit changes the places that use `Vec<Attribute>` to use
`AttrVec`. A lot of this is mechanical and boring, but there are
some interesting parts:
- It adds a few new methods to `ThinVec`.
- It implements `MapInPlace` for `ThinVec`, and introduces a macro to
avoid the repetition of this trait for `Vec`, `SmallVec`, and
`ThinVec`.
Overall, it makes the code a little nicer, and has little effect on
performance. But it is a precursor to removing
`rustc_data_structures::thin_vec::ThinVec` and replacing it with
`thin_vec::ThinVec`, which is implemented more efficiently.
