Extend the `SizeSkeleton` evaluator to shortcut zero-sized arrays, thus
considering `[T; 0]` to have a compile-time fixed-size of 0.
The existing evaluator already deals with generic arrays under the
feature-guard `transmute_const_generics`. However, it merely allows
comparing fixed-size types with fixed-size types, and generic types with
generic types. For generic types, it merely compares whether their
arguments match (ordering them first). Even if their exact sizes are not
known at compile time, it can ensure that they will eventually be the
same.
This patch extends this by shortcutting the size-evaluation of zero
sized arrays and thus allowing size comparisons of `()` with `[T; 0]`,
where one contains generics and the other does not.
This code is guarded by `transmute_const_generics` (#109929), even
though it is unclear whether it should be. However, this assumes that a
separate stabilization PR is required to move this out of the feature
guard.
Initially reported in #98104.
Still more complexity, but this allows computing exact `NaiveLayout`s
for null-optimized enums, and thus allows calls like
`transmute::<Option<&T>, &U>()` to work in generic contexts.
This patch updates the error reporting when Safe Transmute is not
possible between 2 types by including the reason.
Also, fix some small bugs that occur when computing the `Answer` for
transmutability.
