Support ?Trait bounds in supertraits and dyn Trait under a feature gate
This patch allows `maybe` polarity bounds under a feature gate. The only language change here is that corresponding hard errors are replaced by feature gates. Example:
```rust
#![feature(allow_maybe_polarity)]
...
trait Trait1 : ?Trait { ... } // ok
fn foo(_: Box<(dyn Trait2 + ?Trait)>) {} // ok
fn bar<T: ?Sized + ?Trait>(_: &T) {} // ok
```
Maybe bounds still don't do anything (except for `Sized` trait), however this patch will allow us to [experiment with default auto traits](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120706#issuecomment-1934006762).

Fix supertrait associated type unsoundness
### What?
Object safety allows us to name `Self::Assoc` associated types in certain positions if they come from our trait or one of our supertraits. When this check was implemented, I think it failed to consider that supertraits can have different args, and it was only checking def-id equality.
This is problematic, since we can sneak different implementations in by implementing `Supertrait<NotActuallyTheSupertraitSubsts>` for a `dyn` type. This can be used to implement an unsound transmute function. See the committed test.
### How do we fix it?
We consider the whole trait ref when checking for supertraits. Right now, this is implemented using equality *without* normalization. We erase regions since those don't affect trait selection.
This is a limitation that could theoretically affect code that should be accepted, but doesn't matter in practice -- there are 0 crater regression. We could make this check stronger, but I would be worried about cycle issues. I assume that most people are writing `Self::Assoc` so they don't really care about the trait ref being normalized.

### What is up w the stacked commit
This is built on top of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/122804 though that's really not related, it's just easier to make this modification with the changes to the object safety code that I did in that PR. The only thing is that PR may make this unsoundness slightly easier to abuse, since there are more positions that allow self-associated-types -- I am happy to stall that change until this PR merges.

Don't ICE when auto trait has assoc ty in old solver
Kinda a pointless change to make, but it's observable w/o the feature gate, so let's just fix it. I reintroduced this ICE when I removed the "auto impl" kind from `ImplSource` in #112687.

Forbid borrows and unsized types from being used as the type of a const generic under `adt_const_params`
Fixes#112219Fixes#112124Fixes#112125
### Motivation
Currently the `adt_const_params` feature allows writing `Foo<const N: [u8]>` this is entirely useless as it is not possible to write an expression which evaluates to a type that is not `Sized`. In order to actually use unsized types in const generics they are typically written as `const N: &[u8]` which *is* possible to provide a value of.
Unfortunately allowing the types of const parameters to contain references is non trivial (#120961) as it introduces a number of difficult questions about how equality of references in the type system should behave. References in the types of const generics is largely only useful for using unsized types in const generics.
This PR introduces a new feature gate `unsized_const_parameters` and moves support for `const N: [u8]` and `const N: &...` from `adt_const_params` into it. The goal here hopefully is to experiment with allowing `const N: [u8]` to work without references and then eventually completely forbid references in const generics.
Splitting this out into a new feature gate means that stabilization of `adt_const_params` does not have to resolve#120961 which is the only remaining "big" blocker for the feature. Remaining issues after this are a few ICEs and naming bikeshed for `ConstParamTy`.
### Implementation
The implementation is slightly subtle here as we would like to ensure that a stabilization of `adt_const_params` is forwards compatible with any outcome of `unsized_const_parameters`. This is inherently tricky as we do not support unstable trait implementations and we determine whether a type is valid as the type of a const parameter via a trait bound.
There are a few constraints here:
- We would like to *allow for the possibility* of adding a `Sized` supertrait to `ConstParamTy` in the event that we wind up opting to not support unsized types and instead requiring people to write the 'sized version', e.g. `const N: [u8; M]` instead of `const N: [u8]`.
- Crates should be able to enable `unsized_const_parameters` and write trait implementations of `ConstParamTy` for `!Sized` types without downstream crates that only enable `adt_const_params` being able to observe this (required for std to be able to `impl<T> ConstParamTy for [T]`
Ultimately the way this is accomplished is via having two traits (sad), `ConstParamTy` and `UnsizedConstParamTy`. Depending on whether `unsized_const_parameters` is enabled or not we change which trait is used to check whether a type is allowed to be a const parameter.
Long term (when stabilizing `UnsizedConstParamTy`) it should be possible to completely merge these traits (and derive macros), only having a single `trait ConstParamTy` and `macro ConstParamTy`.
Under `adt_const_params` it is now illegal to directly refer to `ConstParamTy` it is only used as an internal impl detail by `derive(ConstParamTy)` and checking const parameters are well formed. This is necessary in order to ensure forwards compatibility with all possible future directions for `feature(unsized_const_parameters)`.
Generally the intuition here should be that `ConstParamTy` is the stable trait that everything uses, and `UnsizedConstParamTy` is that plus unstable implementations (well, I suppose `ConstParamTy` isn't stable yet :P).
More accurate suggestion for `-> Box<dyn Trait>` or `-> impl Trait`
When encountering `-> Trait`, suggest `-> Box<dyn Trait>` (instead of `-> Box<Trait>`.
If there's a single returned type within the `fn`, suggest `-> impl Trait`.
When encountering `-> Trait`, suggest `-> Box<dyn Trait>` (instead of `-> Box<Trait>`.
If there's a single returned type within the `fn`, suggest `-> impl Trait`.
interpret: add sanity check in dyn upcast to double-check what codegen does
For dyn receiver calls, we already have two codepaths: look up the function to call by indexing into the vtable, or alternatively resolve the DefId given the dynamic type of the receiver. With debug assertions enabled, the interpreter does both and compares the results. (Without debug assertions we always use the vtable as it is simpler.)
This PR does the same for dyn trait upcasts. However, for casts *not* using the vtable is the easier thing to do, so now the vtable path is the debug-assertion-only path. In particular, there are cases where the vtable does not contain a pointer for upcasts but instead reuses the old pointer: when the supertrait vtable is a prefix of the larger vtable. We don't want to expose this optimization and detect UB if people do a transmute assuming this optimization, so we cannot in general use the vtable indexing path.

Represent type-level consts with new-and-improved `hir::ConstArg`
### Summary
This is a step toward `min_generic_const_exprs`. We now represent all const
generic arguments using an enum that differentiates between const *paths*
(temporarily just bare const params) and arbitrary anon consts that may perform
computations. This will enable us to cleanly implement the `min_generic_const_args`
plan of allowing the use of generics in paths used as const args, while
disallowing their use in arbitrary anon consts. Here is a summary of the salient
aspects of this change:
- Add `current_def_id_parent` to `LoweringContext`
This is needed to track anon const parents properly once we implement
`ConstArgKind::Path` (which requires moving anon const def-creation
outside of `DefCollector`).
- Create `hir::ConstArgKind` enum with `Path` and `Anon` variants. Use it in the
existing `hir::ConstArg` struct, replacing the previous `hir::AnonConst` field.
- Use `ConstArg` for all instances of const args. Specifically, use it instead
of `AnonConst` for assoc item constraints, array lengths, and const param
defaults.
- Some `ast::AnonConst`s now have their `DefId`s created in
rustc_ast_lowering rather than `DefCollector`. This is because in some
cases they will end up becoming a `ConstArgKind::Path` instead, which
has no `DefId`. We have to solve this in a hacky way where we guess
whether the `AnonConst` could end up as a path const since we can't
know for sure until after name resolution (`N` could refer to a free
const or a nullary struct). If it has no chance as being a const
param, then we create a `DefId` in `DefCollector` -- otherwise we
decide during ast_lowering. This will have to be updated once all path
consts use `ConstArgKind::Path`.
- We explicitly use `ConstArgHasType` for array lengths, rather than
implicitly relying on anon const type feeding -- this is due to the
addition of `ConstArgKind::Path`.
- Some tests have their outputs changed, but the changes are for the
most part minor (including removing duplicate or almost-duplicate
errors). One test now ICEs, but it is for an incomplete, unstable
feature and is now tracked at https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/127009.
### Followup items post-merge
- Use `ConstArgKind::Path` for all const paths, not just const params.
- Fix (no github dont close this issue) #127009
- If a path in generic args doesn't resolve as a type, try to resolve as a const
instead (do this in rustc_resolve). Then remove the special-casing from
`rustc_ast_lowering`, so that all params will automatically be lowered as
`ConstArgKind::Path`.
- (?) Consider making `const_evaluatable_unchecked` a hard error, or at least
trying it in crater
r? `@BoxyUwU`
This is a very large commit since a lot needs to be changed in order to
make the tests pass. The salient changes are:
- `ConstArgKind` gets a new `Path` variant, and all const params are now
represented using it. Non-param paths still use `ConstArgKind::Anon`
to prevent this change from getting too large, but they will soon use
the `Path` variant too.
- `ConstArg` gets a distinct `hir_id` field and its own variant in
`hir::Node`. This affected many parts of the compiler that expected
the parent of an `AnonConst` to be the containing context (e.g., an
array repeat expression). They have been changed to check the
"grandparent" where necessary.
- Some `ast::AnonConst`s now have their `DefId`s created in
rustc_ast_lowering rather than `DefCollector`. This is because in some
cases they will end up becoming a `ConstArgKind::Path` instead, which
has no `DefId`. We have to solve this in a hacky way where we guess
whether the `AnonConst` could end up as a path const since we can't
know for sure until after name resolution (`N` could refer to a free
const or a nullary struct). If it has no chance as being a const
param, then we create a `DefId` in `DefCollector` -- otherwise we
decide during ast_lowering. This will have to be updated once all path
consts use `ConstArgKind::Path`.

Invert infer `error_reporting` mod struture
Parallel change to #127493, which moves `rustc_infer::infer::error_reporting` to `rustc_infer::error_reporting::infer`. After this, we should just be able to merge this into `rustc_trait_selection::error_reporting::infer`, and pull down `TypeErrCtxt` into that crate. 👍
r? lcnr
This commit changes the error reporting mechanism for not implemented
traits to skip impl marked as `#[diagnostic::do_not_recommend]` in the
help part of the error message ("the following other types implement
trait `Foo`:"). The main use case here is to allow crate authors to skip
non-meaningful confusing suggestions. A common example for this are
fully generic impls on tuples.
Uplift elaboration into `rustc_type_ir`
Allows us to deduplicate and consolidate elaboration (including these stupid elaboration duplicate fns i added for pretty printing like 3 years ago) so I'm pretty hyped about this change :3

Make `can_eq` process obligations (almost) everywhere
Move `can_eq` to an extension trait on `InferCtxt` in `rustc_trait_selection`, and change it so that it processes obligations. This should strengthen it to be more accurate in some cases, but is most important for the new trait solver which delays relating aliases to `AliasRelate` goals. Without this, we always basically just return true when passing aliases to `can_eq`, which can lead to weird errors, for example #127149.
I'm not actually certain if we should *have* `can_eq` be called on the good path. In cases where we need `can_eq`, we probably should just be using a regular probe.
