rustc_span: More consistent span combination operations
Also add more tests for using `tt` in addition to `ident`, and some other minor tweaks, see individual commits.
This is a part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/119412 that doesn't yet add side tables for metavariable spans.
rustc_span: Optimize syntax context comparisons
Including comparisons with root context.
- `eq_ctxt` doesn't require retrieving full `SpanData`, or taking the span interner lock twice.
- Checking `SyntaxContext` for "rootness" is cheaper than extracting a full outer `ExpnData` for it and checking *it* for rootness.
The internal lint for `eq_ctxt` is also tweaked to detect `a.ctxt() != b.ctxt()` in addition to `a.ctxt() == b.ctxt()`.
Avoid specialization in the metadata serialization code
With the exception of a perf-only specialization for byte slices and byte vectors.
This uses the same trick of introducing a new trait and having the Encodable and Decodable derives add a bound to it as used for TyEncoder/TyDecoder. The new code is clearer about which encoder/decoder uses which impl and it reduces the dependency of rustc on specialization, making it easier to remove support for specialization entirely or turn it into a construct that is only allowed for perf optimizations if we decide to do this.
Replace a number of FxHashMaps/Sets with stable-iteration-order alternatives
This PR replaces almost all of the remaining `FxHashMap`s in query results with either `FxIndexMap` or `UnordMap`. The only case that is missing is the `EffectiveVisibilities` struct which turned out to not be straightforward to transform. Once that is done too, we can remove the `HashStable` implementation from `HashMap`.
The first commit adds the `StableCompare` trait which is a companion trait to `StableOrd`. Some types like `Symbol` can be compared in a cross-session stable way, but their `Ord` implementation is not stable. In such cases, a `StableCompare` implementation can be provided to offer a lightweight way for stable sorting. The more heavyweight option is to sort via `ToStableHashKey`, but then sorting needs to have access to a stable hashing context and `ToStableHashKey` can also be expensive as in the case of `Symbol` where it has to allocate a `String`.
The rest of the commits are rather mechanical and don't overlap, so they are best reviewed individually.
Part of [MCP 533](https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/533).
In the past it did create a fresh expansion, but now, after surviving a number of refactorings, it does not.
Now it's just a thin wrapper around `apply_mark`.
custom mir: make it clear what the return block is
Custom MIR recently got support for specifying the "unwind action", so now there's two things coming after the actual call part of `Call` terminators. That's not very self-explaining so I propose we change the syntax to imitate keyword arguments:
```
Call(popped = Vec::pop(v), ReturnTo(drop), UnwindContinue())
```
Also fix some outdated docs and add some docs to `Call` and `Drop`.
StableCompare is a companion trait to `StableOrd`. Some types like `Symbol` can be compared in a cross-session stable way, but their `Ord` implementation is not stable. In such cases, a `StableOrd` implementation can be provided to offer a lightweight way for stable sorting. (The more heavyweight option is to sort via `ToStableHashKey`, but then sorting needs to have access to a stable hashing context and `ToStableHashKey` can also be expensive as in the case of `Symbol` where it has to allocate a `String`.)
Unify SourceFile::name_hash and StableSourceFileId
This PR adapts the existing `StableSourceFileId` type so that it can be used instead of the `name_hash` field of `SourceFile`. This simplifies a few things that were kind of duplicated before.
The PR should also fix issues https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/112700 and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/115835, but I was not able to reproduce these issues in a regression test. As far as I can tell, the root cause of these issues is that the id of the originating crate is not hashed in the `HashStable` impl of `Span` and thus cache entries that should have been considered invalidated were loaded. After this PR, the `stable_id` field of `SourceFile` includes information about the originating crate, so that ICE should not occur anymore.
Instead, we store just the local crate hash as a bare u64. On decoding,
we recombine it with the crate's stable crate ID stored separately in
metadata. The end result is that we save ~8 bytes/DefIndex in metadata
size.
One key detail here is that we no longer distinguish in encoded metadata
between present and non-present DefPathHashes. It used to be highly
likely we could distinguish as we used DefPathHash::default(), an
all-zero representation. However in theory even that is fallible as
nothing strictly prevents the StableCrateId from being zero.
Add lint against ambiguous wide pointer comparisons
This PR is the resolution of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/106447 decided in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/117717 by T-lang.
## `ambiguous_wide_pointer_comparisons`
*warn-by-default*
The `ambiguous_wide_pointer_comparisons` lint checks comparison of `*const/*mut ?Sized` as the operands.
### Example
```rust
let ab = (A, B);
let a = &ab.0 as *const dyn T;
let b = &ab.1 as *const dyn T;
let _ = a == b;
```
### Explanation
The comparison includes metadata which may not be expected.
-------
This PR also drops `clippy::vtable_address_comparisons` which is superseded by this one.
~~One thing: is the current naming right? `invalid` seems a bit too much.~~
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/117717
detects redundant imports that can be eliminated.
for #117772 :
In order to facilitate review and modification, split the checking code and
removing redundant imports code into two PR.
rustc_arena: add `alloc_str`
Two places called `from_utf8_unchecked` for strings from `alloc_slice`,
and one's SAFETY comment said this was for lack of `alloc_str` -- so
let's just add that instead!

Add `never_patterns` feature gate
This PR adds the feature gate and most basic parsing for the experimental `never_patterns` feature. See the tracking issue (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/118155) for details on the experiment.
`@scottmcm` has agreed to be my lang-team liaison for this experiment.
