Remove migrate borrowck mode
Closes#58781Closes#43234
# Stabilization proposal
This PR proposes the stabilization of `#![feature(nll)]` and the removal of `-Z borrowck`. Current borrow checking behavior of item bodies is currently done by first infering regions *lexically* and reporting any errors during HIR type checking. If there *are* any errors, then MIR borrowck (NLL) never occurs. If there *aren't* any errors, then MIR borrowck happens and any errors there would be reported. This PR removes the lexical region check of item bodies entirely and only uses MIR borrowck. Because MIR borrowck could never *not* be run for a compiled program, this should not break any programs. It does, however, change diagnostics significantly and allows a slightly larger set of programs to compile.
Tracking issue: #43234
RFC: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/2094-nll.md
Version: 1.63 (2022-06-30 => beta, 2022-08-11 => stable).
## Motivation
Over time, the Rust borrow checker has become "smarter" and thus allowed more programs to compile. There have been three different implementations: AST borrowck, MIR borrowck, and polonius (well, in progress). Additionally, there is the "lexical region resolver", which (roughly) solves the constraints generated through HIR typeck. It is not a full borrow checker, but does emit some errors.
The AST borrowck was the original implementation of the borrow checker and was part of the initially stabilized Rust 1.0. In mid 2017, work began to implement the current MIR borrow checker and that effort ompleted by the end of 2017, for the most part. During 2018, efforts were made to migrate away from the AST borrow checker to the MIR borrow checker - eventually culminating into "migrate" mode - where HIR typeck with lexical region resolving following by MIR borrow checking - being active by default in the 2018 edition.
In early 2019, migrate mode was turned on by default in the 2015 edition as well, but with MIR borrowck errors emitted as warnings. By late 2019, these warnings were upgraded to full errors. This was followed by the complete removal of the AST borrow checker.
In the period since, various errors emitted by the MIR borrow checker have been improved to the point that they are mostly the same or better than those emitted by the lexical region resolver.
While there do remain some degradations in errors (tracked under the [NLL-diagnostics tag](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3ANLL-diagnostics), those are sufficiently small and rare enough that increased flexibility of MIR borrow check-only is now a worthwhile tradeoff.
## What is stabilized
As said previously, this does not fundamentally change the landscape of accepted programs. However, there are a [few](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3ANLL-fixed-by-NLL) cases where programs can compile under `feature(nll)`, but not otherwise.
There are two notable patterns that are "fixed" by this stabilization. First, the `scoped_threads` feature, which is a continutation of a pre-1.0 API, can sometimes emit a [weird lifetime error](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/95527) without NLL. Second, actually seen in the standard library. In the `Extend` impl for `HashMap`, there is an implied bound of `K: 'a` that is available with NLL on but not without - this is utilized in the impl.
As mentioned before, there are a large number of diagnostic differences. Most of them are better, but some are worse. None are serious or happen often enough to need to block this PR. The biggest change is the loss of error code for a number of lifetime errors in favor of more general "lifetime may not live long enough" error. While this may *seem* bad, the former error codes were just attempts to somewhat-arbitrarily bin together lifetime errors of the same type; however, on paper, they end up being roughly the same with roughly the same kinds of solutions.
## What isn't stabilized
This PR does not completely remove the lexical region resolver. In the future, it may be possible to remove that (while still keeping HIR typeck) or to remove it together with HIR typeck.
## Tests
Many test outputs get updated by this PR. However, there are number of tests specifically geared towards NLL under `src/test/ui/nll`

Loading the fallback bundle in compilation sessions that won't go on to
emit any errors unnecessarily degrades compile time performance, so
lazily create the Fluent bundle when it is first required.

Extend loading of Fluent bundles so that bundles can be loaded from the
sysroot based on the language requested by the user, or using a nightly
flag.
Sysroot bundles are loaded from `$sysroot/share/locale/$locale/*.ftl`.

This commit updates the signatures of all diagnostic functions to accept
types that can be converted into a `DiagnosticMessage`. This enables
existing diagnostic calls to continue to work as before and Fluent
identifiers to be provided. The `SessionDiagnostic` derive just
generates normal diagnostic calls, so these APIs had to be modified to
accept Fluent identifiers.
In addition, loading of the "fallback" Fluent bundle, which contains the
built-in English messages, has been implemented.
Each diagnostic now has "arguments" which correspond to variables in the
Fluent messages (necessary to render a Fluent message) but no API for
adding arguments has been added yet. Therefore, diagnostics (that do not
require interpolation) can be converted to use Fluent identifiers and
will be output as before.
There are a few places were we have to construct it, though, and a few
places that are more invasive to change. To do this, we create a
constructor with a long obvious name.

Make rustc use `RUST_BACKTRACE=full` by default
Compiler panics should be rare - when they do occur, we want the report
filed by the user to contain as much information as possible. This is
especially important when the panic is due to an incremental compilation
bug, since we may not have enough information to reproduce it.
This PR sets `RUST_BACKTRACE=full` inside `rustc` if the user has not
explicitly set `RUST_BACKTRACE`. This is more verbose than
`RUST_BACKTRACE=1`, but this may make it easier to debug incremental
compilation issues. Users who find this too verbose can still manually
set `RUST_BACKTRACE` before invoking the compiler.
This only affects `rustc` (and any tool using `rustc_driver::install_ice_hook`).
It does *not* affect any user crates or the standard library -
backtraces will continue to be off by default in any application
*compiled* by rustc.
rustdoc: Fix ICE report
The ICE report in rustdoc was confusing because it was returning an argument parse error:
```
thread 'rustc' panicked at 'aborting due to `-Z treat-err-as-bug=1`', compiler/rustc_errors/src/lib.rs:1212:27
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
error: internal compiler error: unexpected panic
error: Unrecognized option: 'crate-version'
```
This is because the ICE reporter was trying to parse the arguments as rustc, not rustdoc. Since an argument error is a fatal error, it was early-exiting with the argument error due to unwinding.
This changes it to be a more primitive scan of the arguments. The arguments being checked are pretty simple, and only have a small handful of forms that are easy to check for.
It now looks like this:
```
thread 'rustc' panicked at 'aborting due to `-Z treat-err-as-bug=1`', compiler/rustc_errors/src/lib.rs:1212:27
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
error: internal compiler error: unexpected panic
note: the compiler unexpectedly panicked. this is a bug.
note: we would appreciate a bug report: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/new?labels=C-bug%2C+I-ICE%2C+T-compiler&template=ice.md
note: rustc 1.59.0-dev running on x86_64-apple-darwin

query stack during panic:
end of query stack
```
It still says `rustc`, but I can live with that.
Compiler panics should be rare - when they do occur, we want the report
filed by the user to contain as much information as possible. This is
especially important when the panic is due to an incremental compilation
bug, since we may not have enough information to reproduce it.

`Decoder` has two impls:
- opaque: this impl is already partly infallible, i.e. in some places it
currently panics on failure (e.g. if the input is too short, or on a
bad `Result` discriminant), and in some places it returns an error
(e.g. on a bad `Option` discriminant). The number of places where
either happens is surprisingly small, just because the binary
representation has very little redundancy and a lot of input reading
can occur even on malformed data.
- json: this impl is fully fallible, but it's only used (a) for the
`.rlink` file production, and there's a `FIXME` comment suggesting it
should change to a binary format, and (b) in a few tests in
non-fundamental ways. Indeed #85993 is open to remove it entirely.
And the top-level places in the compiler that call into decoding just
abort on error anyway. So the fallibility is providing little value, and
getting rid of it leads to some non-trivial performance improvements.
Much of this commit is pretty boring and mechanical. Some notes about
a few interesting parts:
- The commit removes `Decoder::{Error,error}`.
- `InternIteratorElement::intern_with`: the impl for `T` now has the same
optimization for small counts that the impl for `Result<T, E>` has,
because it's now much hotter.
- Decodable impls for SmallVec, LinkedList, VecDeque now all use
`collect`, which is nice; the one for `Vec` uses unsafe code, because
that gave better perf on some benchmarks.
Stabilize `-Z print-link-args` as `--print link-args`
We have stable options for adding linker arguments; we should have a
stable option to help debug linker arguments.
Add documentation for the new option. In the documentation, make it clear that
the *exact* format of the output is not a stable guarantee.
Exit nonzero on rustc -Wall
Previously `rustc -Wall /dev/null` would print a paragraph explaining that `-Wall` is not a thing in Rust, but would then exit 0. I believe exiting 0 is not the right behavior. For something like `rustc --version` or `rustc --help` or `rustc -C help` the user is requesting rustc to print some information; rustc prints that information and exits 0 because what the user requested has been accomplished. In the case of `rustc -Wall path/to/main.rs`, I don't find it correct to conceptualize this as "the user requested rustc to print information about the fact that Wall doesn't exist". The user requested a particular thing, and despite rustc knowing what they probably meant and informing them about that, the thing they requested has *not* been accomplished. Thus a nonzero exit code is needed.
LLVM has built-in heuristics for adding stack canaries to functions. These
heuristics can be selected with LLVM function attributes. This patch adds a
rustc option `-Z stack-protector={none,basic,strong,all}` which controls the use
of these attributes. This gives rustc the same stack smash protection support as
clang offers through options `-fno-stack-protector`, `-fstack-protector`,
`-fstack-protector-strong`, and `-fstack-protector-all`. The protection this can
offer is demonstrated in test/ui/abi/stack-protector.rs. This fills a gap in the
current list of rustc exploit
mitigations (https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/exploit-mitigations.html),
originally discussed in #15179.
Stack smash protection adds runtime overhead and is therefore still off by
default, but now users have the option to trade performance for security as they
see fit. An example use case is adding Rust code in an existing C/C++ code base
compiled with stack smash protection. Without the ability to add stack smash
protection to the Rust code, the code base artifacts could be exploitable in
ways not possible if the code base remained pure C/C++.
Stack smash protection support is present in LLVM for almost all the current
tier 1/tier 2 targets: see
test/assembly/stack-protector/stack-protector-target-support.rs. The one
exception is nvptx64-nvidia-cuda. This patch follows clang's example, and adds a
warning message printed if stack smash protection is used with this target (see
test/ui/stack-protector/warn-stack-protector-unsupported.rs). Support for tier 3
targets has not been checked.
Since the heuristics are applied at the LLVM level, the heuristics are expected
to add stack smash protection to a fraction of functions comparable to C/C++.
Some experiments demonstrating how Rust code is affected by the different
heuristics can be found in
test/assembly/stack-protector/stack-protector-heuristics-effect.rs. There is
potential for better heuristics using Rust-specific safety information. For
example it might be reasonable to skip stack smash protection in functions which
transitively only use safe Rust code, or which uses only a subset of functions
the user declares safe (such as anything under `std.*`). Such alternative
heuristics could be added at a later point.
LLVM also offers a "safestack" sanitizer as an alternative way to guard against
stack smashing (see #26612). This could possibly also be included as a
stack-protection heuristic. An alternative is to add it as a sanitizer (#39699).
This is what clang does: safestack is exposed with option
`-fsanitize=safe-stack`.
The options are only supported by the LLVM backend, but as with other codegen
options it is visible in the main codegen option help menu. The heuristic names
"basic", "strong", and "all" are hopefully sufficiently generic to be usable in
other backends as well.

Index and hash HIR as part of lowering
Part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/88186
~Based on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/88880 (see merge commit).~
Once HIR is lowered, it is later indexed by the `index_hir` query and hashed for `crate_hash`. This PR moves those post-processing steps to lowering itself. As a side objective, the HIR crate data structure is refactored as an `IndexVec<LocalDefId, Option<OwnerInfo<'hir>>>` where `OwnerInfo` stores all the relevant information for an HIR owner.

Rustc was incorrectly reading the value of `RUSTC_LOG` as the
environment vairable with the logging configuration, rather than the
logging configuration itself.
