Make `assert` a built-in procedural macro
Makes `assert` macro a built-in one without touching its functionality. This is a prerequisite for RFC 2011 (#44838).
Modify part of `column!` documentation.
Just like `line!` documentation, I've replaced:
> The returned column is not the invocation of the `column!` macro itself
By
> The returned column is *not necessarily* the line of the `column!` invocation itself
See #46997.

In accordance with #46997, I've replaced:
> The returned line is not the invocation of the line! macro itself [...]
By
> The returned line is *not necessarily* the line of the `line!` invocation itself [...]
BREAKING CHANGE: (or perhaps, *bugfix*)
In #![no_std] applications, the following calls to `panic!` used
to behave differently; they now behave the same.
Old behavior:
panic!("{{"); // panics with "{{"
panic!("{{",); // panics with "{"
New behavior:
panic!("{{"); // panics with "{{"
panic!("{{",); // panics with "{{"
This only affects calls to `panic!` (and by proxy `assert`
and `debug_assert`) with a single string literal followed by
a trailing comma, and only in `#![no_std]` applications.
This commit adds a new target to the compiler: wasm32-unknown-unknown. This
target is a reimagining of what it looks like to generate WebAssembly code from
Rust. Instead of using Emscripten which can bring with it a weighty runtime this
instead is a target which uses only the LLVM backend for WebAssembly and a
"custom linker" for now which will hopefully one day be direct calls to lld.
Notable features of this target include:
* There is zero runtime footprint. The target assumes nothing exists other than
the wasm32 instruction set.
* There is zero toolchain footprint beyond adding the target. No custom linker
is needed, rustc contains everything.
* Very small wasm modules can be generated directly from Rust code using this
target.
* Most of the standard library is stubbed out to return an error, but anything
related to allocation works (aka `HashMap`, `Vec`, etc).
* Naturally, any `#[no_std]` crate should be 100% compatible with this new
target.
This target is currently somewhat janky due to how linking works. The "linking"
is currently unconditional whole program LTO (aka LLVM is being used as a
linker). Naturally that means compiling programs is pretty slow! Eventually
though this target should have a linker.
This target is also intended to be quite experimental. I'm hoping that this can
act as a catalyst for further experimentation in Rust with WebAssembly. Breaking
changes are very likely to land to this target, so it's not recommended to rely
on it in any critical capacity yet. We'll let you know when it's "production
ready".
---
Currently testing-wise this target is looking pretty good but isn't complete.
I've got almost the entire `run-pass` test suite working with this target (lots
of tests ignored, but many passing as well). The `core` test suite is still
getting LLVM bugs fixed to get that working and will take some time. Relatively
simple programs all seem to work though!
---
It's worth nothing that you may not immediately see the "smallest possible wasm
module" for the input you feed to rustc. For various reasons it's very difficult
to get rid of the final "bloat" in vanilla rustc (again, a real linker should
fix all this). For now what you'll have to do is:
cargo install --git https://github.com/alexcrichton/wasm-gc
wasm-gc foo.wasm bar.wasm
And then `bar.wasm` should be the smallest we can get it!
---
In any case for now I'd love feedback on this, particularly on the various
integration points if you've got better ideas of how to approach them!
Replaced by adding extra imports, adding hidden code (`# ...`), modifying
examples to be runnable (sorry Homura), specifying non-Rust code, and
converting to should_panic, no_run, or compile_fail.
Remaining "```ignore"s received an explanation why they are being ignored.
* Factor out the nigh-identical bodies of `_print` and `_eprint` to a helper
function `print_to` (I was sorely tempted to call it `_doprnt`).
* Update the issue number for the unstable `eprint` feature.
* Add entries to the "unstable book" for `eprint` and `eprint_internal`.
* Style corrections to the documentation.
Removes the `STATUSES` static which duplicates truth from the pattern
match in `collect_lang_features`.
Fixes existing duplicates by renaming:
- never_type{,_impls} on `impl`s on `!`
- concat_idents{,_macro} on `macro_rules! concat_idents`
Fixes#37013.
