- Sort dependencies and features sections.
- Add `tidy` markers to the sorted sections so they stay sorted.
- Remove empty `[lib`] sections.
- Remove "See more keys..." comments.
Excluded files:
- rustc_codegen_{cranelift,gcc}, because they're external.
- rustc_lexer, because it has external use.
- stable_mir, because it has external use.
Fluent, with all the icu4x it brings in, takes quite some time to
compile. `fluent_messages!` is only needed in further downstream rustc
crates, but is blocking more upstream crates like `rustc_index`. By
splitting it out, we allow `rustc_macros` to be compiled earlier, which
speeds up `x check compiler` by about 5 seconds (and even more after the
needless dependency on `serde_json` is removed from
`rustc_data_structures`).
`rustc_data_structures::thin_vec::ThinVec` looks like this:
```
pub struct ThinVec<T>(Option<Box<Vec<T>>>);
```
It's just a zero word if the vector is empty, but requires two
allocations if it is non-empty. So it's only usable in cases where the
vector is empty most of the time.
This commit removes it in favour of `thin_vec::ThinVec`, which is also
word-sized, but stores the length and capacity in the same allocation as
the elements. It's good in a wider variety of situation, e.g. in enum
variants where the vector is usually/always non-empty.
The commit also:
- Sorts some `Cargo.toml` dependency lists, to make additions easier.
- Sorts some `use` item lists, to make additions easier.
- Changes `clean_trait_ref_with_bindings` to take a
`ThinVec<TypeBinding>` rather than a `&[TypeBinding]`, because this
avoid some unnecessary allocations.
Since RFC 3052 soft deprecated the authors field anyway, hiding it from
crates.io, docs.rs, and making Cargo not add it by default, and it is
not generally up to date/useful information, we should remove it from
crates in this repo.
