Lower some forgotten spans
I wrote a HIR visitor that visited all of the spans in the HIR, and made it ICE when we have a unlowered span. That led me to discover these unlowered spans.
Introduce support for `async gen` blocks
I'm delighted to demonstrate that `async gen` block are not very difficult to support. They're simply coroutines that yield `Poll<Option<T>>` and return `()`.
**This PR is WIP and in draft mode for now** -- I'm mostly putting it up to show folks that it's possible. This PR needs a lang-team experiment associated with it or possible an RFC, since I don't think it falls under the jurisdiction of the `gen` RFC that was recently authored by oli (https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3513, https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/117078).
### Technical note on the pre-generator-transform yield type:
The reason that the underlying coroutines yield `Poll<Option<T>>` and not `Poll<T>` (which would make more sense, IMO, for the pre-transformed coroutine), is because the `TransformVisitor` that is used to turn coroutines into built-in state machine functions would have to destructure and reconstruct the latter into the former, which requires at least inserting a new basic block (for a `switchInt` terminator, to match on the `Poll` discriminant).
This does mean that the desugaring (at the `rustc_ast_lowering` level) of `async gen` blocks is a bit more involved. However, since we already need to intercept both `.await` and `yield` operators, I don't consider it much of a technical burden.

never_patterns: Parse match arms with no body
Never patterns are meant to signal unreachable cases, and thus don't take bodies:
```rust
let ptr: *const Option<!> = ...;
match *ptr {
None => { foo(); }
Some(!),
}
```
This PR makes rustc accept the above, and enforces that an arm has a body xor is a never pattern. This affects parsing of match arms even with the feature off, so this is delicate. (Plus this is my first non-trivial change to the parser).
~~The last commit is optional; it introduces a bit of churn to allow the new suggestions to be machine-applicable. There may be a better solution? I'm not sure.~~ EDIT: I removed that commit
r? `@compiler-errors`
Remove `#[rustc_host]`, use internal desugaring
Also removed a way for users to explicitly specify the host param since that isn't particularly useful. This should eliminate any pain with encoding attributes across crates and etc.
r? `@compiler-errors`
`DefPathData::(ClosureExpr,ImplTrait)` are renamed to match `DefKind::(Closure,OpaqueTy)`.
`DefPathData::ImplTraitAssocTy` is replaced with `DefPathData::TypeNS(kw::Empty)` because both correspond to `DefKind::AssocTy`.
It's possible that introducing `(DefKind,DefPathData)::AssocOpaqueTy` could be a better solution, but that would be a much more invasive change.
Const generic parameters introduced for effects are moved from `DefPathData::TypeNS` to `DefPathData::ValueNS`, because constants are values.
`DefPathData` is no longer passed to `create_def` functions to avoid redundancy.
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.
Eagerly return `ExprKind::Err` on `yield`/`await` in wrong coroutine context
This PR does 2 things:
1. Refuses to lower `.await` or `yield` when we are outside of the right coroutine context for the operator. Instead, we lower to `hir::ExprKind::Err`, to silence subsequent redundant errors.
2. Reworks a bit of the span tracking in `LoweringContext` to fix a bad span when we have something like `let x = [0; async_fn().await]` where the `await` is inside of an anon const. The span for the "item" still kinda sucks, since it overlaps with the `await` span, but at least it's accurate.
Remove HIR opkinds
`hir::BinOp`, `hir::BinOpKind`, and `hir::UnOp` are identical to `ast::BinOp`, `ast::BinOpKind`, and `ast::UnOp`, respectively. This seems silly, so this PR removes the HIR ones. (A re-export lets the AST ones be referred to using a `hir::` qualifier, which avoids renaming churn.)
r? `@cjgillot`
They're identical to the same-named types from `ast`. I find it silly
(and inefficient) to have all this boilerplate code to convert one type
to an identical type.
There is already a small amount of type sharing between the AST and HIR,
e.g. `Attribute`, `MacroDef`.
The commit adds a `pub use` to `rustc_hir` so that, for example,
`ast::BinOp` can also be referred to as `hir::BinOp`. This is so the
many existing `hir`-qualified mentions of these types don't need to
change.
The commit also moves a couple of operations from the (removed) HIR
types to the AST types, e.g. `is_by_value`.
Currently we always do this:
```
use rustc_fluent_macro::fluent_messages;
...
fluent_messages! { "./example.ftl" }
```
But there is no need, we can just do this everywhere:
```
rustc_fluent_macro::fluent_messages! { "./example.ftl" }
```
which is shorter.
The `fluent_messages!` macro produces uses of
`crate::{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage`, which means that every crate using
the macro must have this import:
```
use rustc_errors::{DiagnosticMessage, SubdiagnosticMessage};
```
This commit changes the macro to instead use
`rustc_errors::{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage`, which avoids the need for the
imports.
