docs(rustc): Improve discoverable of Cargo docs
In preparing Cargo's blog post for 1.80, I tried to find the documentation for the lint configuration and I couldn't. The link is only visible from the lint itself, which isn't where I started, and the side bar, which was collapsed for me.
The first place I went was the docs for `unexpected_cfgs` because this is configuration for that lint. If using lint configuration were a one off, I could see skipping it here. However, when we discussed this with at least one T-compiler member, there was interest in using this for other lints in the future. To that end, it seems like we should be exposing this with the lint itself.
The second place I checked was the `check-cfg` documentation. This now has a call out for the sub-page.
This is the first time we have a lint with configuration exposed in
`Cargo.toml`.
When this was done, interest was expressed in using this for other cases
in the future.
To this end, we need to make the documentation for the lint
configuration discoverable from the documentation for that lint.
We already do this for a number of crates, e.g. `rustc_middle`,
`rustc_span`, `rustc_metadata`, `rustc_span`, `rustc_errors`.
For the ones we don't, in many cases the attributes are a mess.
- There is no consistency about order of attribute kinds (e.g.
`allow`/`deny`/`feature`).
- Within attribute kind groups (e.g. the `feature` attributes),
sometimes the order is alphabetical, and sometimes there is no
particular order.
- Sometimes the attributes of a particular kind aren't even grouped
all together, e.g. there might be a `feature`, then an `allow`, then
another `feature`.
This commit extends the existing sorting to all compiler crates,
increasing consistency. If any new attribute line is added there is now
only one place it can go -- no need for arbitrary decisions.
Exceptions:
- `rustc_log`, `rustc_next_trait_solver` and `rustc_type_ir_macros`,
because they have no crate attributes.
- `rustc_codegen_gcc`, because it's quasi-external to rustc (e.g. it's
ignored in `rustfmt.toml`).
Spruce up the diagnostics of some early lints
Implement the various "*(note to myself) in a follow-up PR we should turn parts of this message into a subdiagnostic (help msg or even struct sugg)*" drive-by comments I left in #124417 during my review.
For context, before #124417, only a few early lints touched/decorated/customized their diagnostic because the former API made it a bit awkward. Likely because of that, things that should've been subdiagnostics were just crammed into the primary message. This PR rectifies this.
Convert `proc_macro_back_compat` lint to an unconditional error.
We still check for the `rental`/`allsorts-rental` crates. But now if they are detected we just emit a fatal error, instead of emitting a warning and providing alternative behaviour.
The original "hack" implementing alternative behaviour was added in #73345.
The lint was added in #83127.
The tracking issue is #83125.
The direct motivation for the change is that providing the alternative behaviour is interfering with #125174 and follow-on work.

[perf] Delay the construction of early lint diag structs
Attacks some of the perf regressions from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/124417#issuecomment-2123700666.
See individual commits for details. The first three commits are not strictly necessary.
However, the 2nd one (06bc4fc671, *Remove `LintDiagnostic::msg`*) makes the main change way nicer to implement.
It's also pretty sweet on its own if I may say so myself.
Turn remaining non-structural-const-in-pattern lints into hard errors
This completes the implementation of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/120362 by turning our remaining future-compat lints into hard errors: indirect_structural_match and pointer_structural_match.
They have been future-compat lints for a while (indirect_structural_match for many years, pointer_structural_match since Rust 1.75 (released Dec 28, 2023)), and have shown up in dependency breakage reports since Rust 1.78 (just released on May 2, 2024). I don't expect a lot of code will still depend on them, but we will of course do a crater run.
A lot of cleanup is now possible in const_to_pat, but that is deferred to a later PR.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/70861
* inline `LintBuffer::add_lint`, it only had a single use
* update a lint infra example code snippet
* it used the wrong API (the snippet isn't tested)
* presumably the arguments were updated from builder to diag struct style
at some point without updating the method
Translation of the lint message happens when the actual diagnostic is
created, not when the lint is buffered. Generating the message from
BuiltinLintDiag ensures that all required data to construct the message
is preserved in the LintBuffer, eventually allowing the messages to be
moved to fluent.
Remove the `msg` field from BufferedEarlyLint, it is either generated
from the data in the BuiltinLintDiag or stored inside
BuiltinLintDiag::Normal.
Update `unexpected_cfgs` lint for Cargo new `check-cfg` config
This PR updates the diagnostics output of the `unexpected_cfgs` lint for Cargo new `check-cfg` config.
It's a simple and cost-less alternative to the build-script `cargo::rustc-check-cfg` instruction.
```toml
[lints.rust]
unexpected_cfgs = { level = "warn", check-cfg = ['cfg(foo, values("bar"))'] }
```
This PR also adds a Cargo specific section regarding check-cfg and Cargo inside rustc's book (motivation is described inside the file, but mainly check-cfg is a rustc feature not a Cargo one, Cargo only enabled the feature, it does not own it; T-cargo even considers the `check-cfg` lint config to be an implementation detail).
This PR also updates the links to refer to that sub-page when using Cargo from rustc.
As well as updating the lint doc to refer to the check-cfg docs.

Remove many `#[macro_use] extern crate foo` items
This requires the addition of more `use` items, which often make the code more verbose. But they also make the code easier to read, because `#[macro_use]` obscures where macros are defined.
