Move `IntoDiagnostic` conformance for `TargetDataLayoutErrors` into `rustc_errors`
Addressed this suggestion https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/101558#issuecomment-1243830009.
This way we comply with the Coherence rule given that `IntoDiagnostic` trait is defined in `rustc_errors`, and almost all other crates depend on it.
If we fail to locate a native library that we are linking with, it could
be the case the user entered a complete file name like `foo.lib` or
`libfoo.a` when we expect them to simply provide `foo`.
In this situation, we now detect that case and suggest the user only
provide the library name itself.
Enforce alphabetical sorting with tidy
We have many places where things are supposed to be sorted alphabetically. For the smaller and more recent size assertions, this is mostly upheld, but in other more... alive places it's very messy.
This introduces a new tidy directive to check that a section of code is sorted alphabetically and fixes all places where sorting has gone wrong.
translation: eager translation
Part of #100717. See [Zulip thread](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/336883-i18n/topic/.23100717.20lists!/near/295010720) for additional context.
- **Store diagnostic arguments in a `HashMap`**: Eager translation will enable subdiagnostics to be translated multiple times with different arguments - this requires the ability to replace the value of one argument with a new value, which is better suited to a `HashMap` than the previous storage, a `Vec`.
- **Add `AddToDiagnostic::add_to_diagnostic_with`**: `AddToDiagnostic::add_to_diagnostic_with` is similar to the previous `AddToDiagnostic::add_to_diagnostic` but takes a function that can be used by the caller to modify diagnostic messages originating from the subdiagnostic (such as performing translation eagerly). `add_to_diagnostic` now just calls `add_to_diagnostic_with` with an empty closure.
- **Add `DiagnosticMessage::Eager`**: Add variant of `DiagnosticMessage` for eagerly translated messages
(messages in the target language which don't need translated by the emitter during emission). Also adds `eager_subdiagnostic` function which is intended to be invoked by the diagnostic derive for subdiagnostic fields which are marked as needing eager translation.
- **Support `#[subdiagnostic(eager)]`**: Add support for `eager` argument to the `subdiagnostic` attribute which generates a call to `eager_subdiagnostic`.
- **Finish migrating `rustc_query_system`**: Using eager translation, migrate the remaining repeated cycle stack diagnostic.
- **Split formatting initialization and use in diagnostic derives**: Diagnostic derives have previously had to take special care when ordering the generated code so that fields were not used after a move.
This is unlikely for most fields because a field is either annotated with a subdiagnostic attribute and is thus likely a `Span` and copiable, or is a argument, in which case it is only used once by `set_arg`
anyway.
However, format strings for code in suggestions can result in fields being used after being moved if not ordered carefully. As a result, the derive currently puts `set_arg` calls last (just before emission), such as:
let diag = { /* create diagnostic */ };
diag.span_suggestion_with_style(
span,
fluent::crate::slug,
format!("{}", __binding_0),
Applicability::Unknown,
SuggestionStyle::ShowAlways
);
/* + other subdiagnostic additions */
diag.set_arg("foo", __binding_0);
/* + other `set_arg` calls */
diag.emit();
For eager translation, this doesn't work, as the message being translated eagerly can assume that all arguments are available - so arguments _must_ be set first.
Format strings for suggestion code are now separated into two parts - an initialization line that performs the formatting into a variable, and a usage in the subdiagnostic addition.
By separating these parts, the initialization can happen before arguments are set, preserving the desired order so that code compiles, while still enabling arguments to be set before subdiagnostics are added.
let diag = { /* create diagnostic */ };
let __code_0 = format!("{}", __binding_0);
/* + other formatting */
diag.set_arg("foo", __binding_0);
/* + other `set_arg` calls */
diag.span_suggestion_with_style(
span,
fluent::crate::slug,
__code_0,
Applicability::Unknown,
SuggestionStyle::ShowAlways
);
/* + other subdiagnostic additions */
diag.emit();
- **Remove field ordering logic in diagnostic derive:** Following the approach taken in earlier commits to separate formatting initialization from use in the subdiagnostic derive, simplify the diagnostic derive by removing the field-ordering logic that previously solved this problem.

Move lint level source explanation to the bottom
So, uhhhhh
r? `@estebank`
## User-facing change
"note: `#[warn(...)]` on by default" and such are moved to the bottom of the diagnostic:
```diff
- = note: `#[warn(unsupported_calling_conventions)]` on by default
= warning: this was previously accepted by the compiler but is being phased out; it will become a hard error in a future release!
= note: for more information, see issue #87678 <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87678>
+ = note: `#[warn(unsupported_calling_conventions)]` on by default
```
Why warning is enabled is the least important thing, so it shouldn't be the first note the user reads, IMO.
## Developer-facing change
`struct_span_lint` and similar methods have a different signature.
Before: `..., impl for<'a> FnOnce(LintDiagnosticBuilder<'a, ()>)`
After: `..., impl Into<DiagnosticMessage>, impl for<'a, 'b> FnOnce(&'b mut DiagnosticBuilder<'a, ()>) -> &'b mut DiagnosticBuilder<'a, ()>`
The reason for this is that `struct_span_lint` needs to edit the diagnostic _after_ `decorate` closure is called. This also makes lint code a little bit nicer in my opinion.
Another option is to use `impl for<'a> FnOnce(LintDiagnosticBuilder<'a, ()>) -> DiagnosticBuilder<'a, ()>` altough I don't _really_ see reasons to do `let lint = lint.build(message)` everywhere.
## Subtle problem
By moving the message outside of the closure (that may not be called if the lint is disabled) `format!(...)` is executed earlier, possibly formatting `Ty` which may call a query that trims paths that crashes the compiler if there were no warnings...
I don't think it's that big of a deal, considering that we move from `format!(...)` to `fluent` (which is lazy by-default) anyway, however this required adding a workaround which is unfortunate.
## P.S.
I'm sorry, I do not how to make this PR smaller/easier to review. Changes to the lint API affect SO MUCH 😢

translations(rustc_session): migrates rustc_session to use SessionDiagnostic - Pt. 2
# Description
This is the second part of the `rustc_session` [migration](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/100717#issuecomment-1220279883).
**Please only review this [commit](5018581957) that belongs to the part 2. The other ones are from the PR [#100753](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/100753) that is not yet merged.**
In this PR, we migrate the files `session.rs` and `config.rs`.
Please not that we have to `allow` the lints rules in some functions from `session.rs` because they are (at least I believe) part of the diagnostic machinery.
This commit removes the allows rules for the SessionDiagnostic lint
that were being used in the session.rs file.
Thanks to the PR #101230 we do not need to annotate the methods with
the allow rule as they are part of the diagnostic machinery.

Migrate rustc_monomorphize to use SessionDiagnostic

### TODO / Help!

- Resolved. It was bad docs. Fixed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc-dev-guide/pull/1437/files
- [x] `errors:RecursionLimit` should be `#[fatal ...]`, but that doesn't exist so it's `#[error ...]` at the moment.
- Maybe I can switch after this is merged in? --> https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/100694
- Or maybe I need to manually implement `SessionDiagnostic` instead of deriving it?
- [x] How does one go about converting an error inside of [a call to struct_span_lint_hir](8064a49508/compiler/rustc_monomorphize/src/collector.rs (L917-L927))?
- [x] ~What placeholder do you use in the fluent template to refer to the value in a vector? It seems like [this code](0b79f758c9/compiler/rustc_macros/src/diagnostics/diagnostic_builder.rs (L83-L114)) ought to have the answer (or something near it)...but I can't figure it out.~ You can't. Punted.
Thought of doing this by having a struct and an enum with Default and Alt cases, but not sure if we wanted to have the text in code instead of having “demangling()” and “demangling-alt()” in the ftl file.
Don’t like the current way of having structs representing the same-ish and using long names to distinguish their expectations, instead of putting this in an enum and handling the different cases inside the type.
I am fine with whichever option the team prefers; also understand having them as separate structs keeps it simple.

Let's just choose even stricter rules, since we shouldn't be implementing `Drop` on a foreign ADT ever.

Replace - with _ in fluent slugs to improve developer workflows
This is a proposal to smoothen the compiler contribution experience in the face of the move to fluent.
## Context
The fluent project has introduced a layer of abstraction to compiler errors. Previously, people would write down error messages directly in the same file the code was located to emit them. Now, there is a slug that connects the code in the compiler to the error message in the ftl file.
You can look at 7ef610c003 to see an example of the changes:
Old:
```Rust
let msg = format!(
"bounds on `{}` are most likely incorrect, consider instead \
using `{}` to detect whether a type can be trivially dropped",
predicate,
cx.tcx.def_path_str(needs_drop)
);
lint.build(&msg).emit();
```
New (Rust side):
```Rust
lint.build(fluent::lint::drop_trait_constraints)
.set_arg("predicate", predicate)
.set_arg("needs_drop", cx.tcx.def_path_str(needs_drop))
.emit();
```
New (Fluent side):
```fluent
lint-drop-trait-constraints =
bounds on `{$predicate}` are most likely incorrect, consider instead using `{$needs_drop}` to detect whether a type can be trivially dropped
```
You will note that in the ftl file, the slug is slightly different from the slug in the Rust file: The ftl slug uses `-` (e.g. `lint-drop-trait-constraints`) while the rust slug uses `::` and `_` (e.g. `lint::drop_trait_constraints`). This choice was probably done due to:
* Rust not accepting `-` in identifiers (as it is an operator)
* fluent not supporting the `:` character in slug names (parse error upon attempts)
* all official fluent documentation using `-` instead of `_`
## The problem
The two different types of slugs, one with `-`, and one with `_`, cause difficulties for contributors. Imagine you don't have perfect knowledge of where stuff is in the compiler (i would say this is most people), and you encounter an error for which you think there is something you could improve that is not just a rewording.
So you want to find out where in the compiler's code that error is being emitted. The best way is via grepping.
1. you grep for the message in the compiler's source code. You discover the ftl file and find out the slug for that error.
2. That slug however contains `-` instead of `_`, so you have to manually translate the `-`'s into `_`s, and furthermore either remove the leading module name, or replace the first `-` with a `::`.
3. you do a second grep to get to the emitting location in the compiler's code.
This translation difficulty in step 2 appears also in the other direction when you want to figure out what some code in the compiler is doing and use error messages to help your understanding. Comments and variable names are way less exposed to users so [are more likely going to lie](cc3c5d2700) than error messages.
I think that at least the `-`→`_` translation which makes up most of step 2 can be removed at low cost.
## The solution
If you look closely, the practice of fluent to use `-` is only a stylistic choice and it is not enforced by fluent implementations, neither the playground nor the one the rust compiler uses, that slugs may not contain `_`. Thus, we can in fact migrate the ftl side to `_`. So now we'll have slugs like `lint_drop_trait_constraints` on the ftl side. You only have to do one replacement now to get to the Rust slug: remove the first `_` and place a `::` in its stead. I would argue that this change is in fact useful as it allows you to control whether you want to look at the rust side of things or the ftl side of things via changing the query string only: with an increased number of translations checked into the repository, grepping for raw slugs will return the slug in many ftl files, so an explicit step to look for the source code is always useful. In the other direction (rust to fluent), you don't need a translation at all any more, as you can just take the final piece of the slug (e.g. `drop_trait_constraints`) and grep for that. The PR also adds enforcement to forbid usage of `_` in slug names. Internal slug names (those leading with a `-`) are exempt from that enforcement.
As another workflow that benefits from this change, people who add new errors don't have to do that `-` conversion either.
| Before/After | Fluent slug | Rust slug (no change) |
|--|--|--|
| Before | `lint-drop-trait-constraints` | `lint::drop_trait_constraints`|
| After | `lint_drop_trait_constraints` | `lint::drop_trait_constraints`|
Note that I've suggested this previously in the translation thread on zulip. I think it's important to think about non-translator contribution impact of fluent. I have certainly plans for more improvements, but this is a good first step.
