fix dynamic size/align computation logic for packed types with dyn trait tail
This logic was never updated to support `packed(N)` where `N > 1`, and it turns out to be wrong for that case.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/80925
`@bjorn3` I have not looked at cranelift; I assume it basically copied the size-of-val logic and hence could use much the same patch.
cache param env canonicalization
Canonicalize ParamEnv only once and store it. Then whenever we try to canonicalize `ParamEnvAnd<'tcx, T>` we only have to canonicalize `T` and then merge the results.
Prelimiary results show ~3-4% savings in diesel and serde benchmarks.
Best to review commits individually. Some commits have a short description.
Initial implementation had a soundness bug (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/117749#issuecomment-1840453387) due to cache invalidation:
- When canonicalizing `Ty<'?0>` we first try to resolve region variables in the current InferCtxt which may have a constraint `?0 == 'static`. This means that we register `Ty<'?0> => Canonical<Ty<'static>>` in the cache, which is obviously incorrect in another inference context.
- This is fixed by not doing region resolution when canonicalizing the query *input* (vs. response), which is the only place where ParamEnv is used, and then in a later commit we *statically* guard against any form of inference variable resolution of the cached canonical ParamEnv's.
r? `@ghost`
This doesn't change behavior.
It should prevent unintentional resolution of inference variables
during canonicalization, which previously caused a soundness bug.

Motivation
----------
If I write a query like `str -> String`, a lot of functions come up. That's to be expected, but `String::from` should come up on top, and it doesn't right now. This is because the sorting algorithm is based on the functions name, and doesn't consider the type signature at all. `slice::join` even comes up above it!
To fix this, the sorting should take into account the function's signature, and the closer match should come up on top.
Guide-level description
-----------------------
When searching by type signature, types with a "closer" match will show up above types that match less precisely.
Reference-level explanation
---------------------------
Functions signature search works in three major phases:
* A compact "fingerprint," based on the [bloom filter] technique, is used to check for matches and to estimate the distance. It sometimes has false positive matches, but it also operates on 128 bit contiguous memory and requires no backtracking, so it performs a lot better than real unification.
The fingerprint represents the set of items in the type signature, but it does not represent nesting, and it ignores when the same item appears more than once.
The result is rejected if any query bits are absent in the function, or if the distance is higher than the current maximum and 200 results have already been found.
* The second step performs unification. This is where nesting and true bag semantics are taken into account, and it has no false positives. It uses a recursive, backtracking algorithm.
The result is rejected if any query elements are absent in the function.
[bloom filter]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_filter
Drawbacks
---------
This makes the code bigger.
More than that, this design is a subtle trade-off. It makes the cases I've tested against measurably faster, but it's not clear how well this extends to other crates with potentially more functions and fewer types.
The more complex things get, the more important it is to gather a good set of data to test with (this is arguably more important than the actual benchmarking ifrastructure right now).
Rationale and alternatives
--------------------------
Throwing a bloom filter in front makes it faster.
More than that, it tries to take a tactic where the system can not only check for potential matches, but also gets an accurate distance function without needing to do unification. That way it can skip unification even on items that have the needed elems, as long as they have more items than the currently found maximum.
If I didn't want to be able to cheaply do set operations on the fingerprint, a [cuckoo filter] is supposed to have better performance. But the nice bit-banging set intersection doesn't work AFAIK.
I also looked into [minhashing], but since it's actually an unbiased estimate of the similarity coefficient, I'm not sure how it could be used to skip unification (I wouldn't know if the estimate was too low or too high).
This function actually uses the number of distinct items as its "distance function." This should give the same results that it would have gotten from a Jaccard Distance $1-\frac{|F\cap{}Q|}{|F\cup{}Q|}$, while being cheaper to compute. This is because:
* The function $F$ must be a superset of the query $Q$, so their union is just $F$ and the intersection is $Q$ and it can be reduced to $1-\frac{|Q|}{|F|}.
* There are no magic thresholds. These values are only being used to compare against each other while sorting (and, if 200 results are found, to compare with the maximum match). This means we only care if one value is bigger than the other, not what it's actual value is, and since $Q$ is the same for everything, it can be safely left out, reducing the formula to $1-\frac{1}{|F|} = \frac{|F|}{|F|}-\frac{1}{|F|} = |F|-1$. And, since the values are only being compared with each other, $|F|$ is fine.
Prior art
---------
This is significantly different from how Hoogle does it.
It doesn't account for order, and it has no special account for nesting, though `Box<t>` is still two items, while `t` is only one.
This should give the same results that it would have gotten from a Jaccard Distance $1-\frac{|A\cap{}B|}{|A\cup{}B|}$, while being cheaper to compute.
Unresolved questions
--------------------
`[]` and `()`, the slice/array and tuple/union operators, are ignored while building the signature for the query. This is because they match more than one thing, making them ambiguous. Unfortunately, this also makes them a performance cliff. Is this likely to be a problem?
Right now, the system just stashes the type distance into the same field that levenshtein distance normally goes in. This means exact query matches show up on top (for example, if you have a function like `fn nothing(a: Nothing, b: i32)`, then searching for `nothing` will show it on top even if there's another function with `fn bar(x: Nothing)` that's technically a closer match in type signature.
Future possibilities
--------------------
It should be possible to adopt more sorting criteria to act as a tie breaker, which could be determined during unification.

Add more suggestions to unexpected cfg names and values
This pull request adds more suggestion to unexpected cfg names and values diagnostics:
- it first adds a links to the [rustc unstable book](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/unstable-book/compiler-flags/check-cfg.html) or the [Cargo reference](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/unstable.html#check-cfg), depending if rustc is invoked by Cargo
- it secondly adds a suggestion on how to expect the cfg name or value:
*excluding well known names and values*
- for Cargo: it suggest using a feature or `cargo:rust-check-cfg` in build script
- for rustc: it suggest using `--check-cfg` (with the correct invocation)
Those diagnostics improvements are directed towards enabling users to fix the issue if the previous suggestions weren't good enough.

`@rustbot` modify labels: rollup
The hash changes are based on some tests with `arti` and various
specific queries, aimed at reducing the false positive rate.
Sorting the query elements so that generics always come first is
instead aimed at reducing the number of Map operations on mgens,
assuming if the bloom filter does find a false positive, it'll
be able to reject the row without having to track a mapping.

Different functions have different amounts of inputs, and
unification isn't very slow anyway, so figuring out a single
ideal number of hash functions is nasty, but 6 keeps things
low even up to 10 inputs.

Coroutine variant fields can be uninitialized
Wrap coroutine variant fields in MaybeUninit to indicate that they might be uninitialized. Otherwise an uninhabited field will make the entire variant uninhabited and introduce undefined behaviour.

ParamEnv is canonicalized in *queries input* rather than query response.
In such case we don't "preserve universes" of canonical variable.
This means that `universe_map` always has the default value, which is
wasteful to store in the cache.

codegen: panic when trying to compute size/align of extern type
The alignment is also computed when accessing a field of extern type at non-zero offset, so we also panic in that case.
Previously `size_of_val` worked because the code path there assumed that "thin pointer" means "sized". But that's not true any more with extern types. The returned size and align are just blatantly wrong, so it seems better to panic than returning wrong results. We use a non-unwinding panic since code probably does not expect size_of_val to panic.

Actually parse async gen blocks correctly
1. I got the control flow in `parse_expr_bottom` messed up, and obviously forgot a test for `async gen`, so we weren't actually ever parsing it correctly.
2. I forgot to gate the span for `async gen {}`, so even if we did parse it, we wouldn't have correctly denied it in `cfg(FALSE)`.

Windows: Allow `File::create` to work on hidden files
This makes `OpenOptions::new().write(true).create(true).truncate(true).open(&path)` work if the path exists and is a hidden file. Previously it would fail with access denied.
This makes it consistent with `OpenOptions::new().write(true).truncate(true).open(&path)` (note the lack of `create`) which does not have this restriction. It's also more consistent with other platforms.
Fixes#115745 (see that issue for more details).
