Update `ParamEnv` docs
There is now a wealth of information in the dev guide about `ParamEnv` so we should explicitly link to it from the doc comments. I also added a caution against using `ParamEnv` and removed the comment about it being "suitable for type checking" as you should practically never use `ParamEnv::empty` for type checking
r? `@compiler-errors`
It is not always clear to people what the impact of `-Cstrip` options are.
They are a common question on sites like StackOverflow, and sometimes
people even report bugs with "no backtrace" after deliberately mangling
the symbol table. We cannot exhaustively document every permutation, but
we should warn people about common effects.
chore: fix footnotes/links in `platform-support.md`
A missing newline between two references is resulting in some links/footnotes not rendering properly. This PR fixes this.
Refactor stack overflow handling
Currently, every platform must implement a `Guard` that protects a thread from stack overflow. However, UNIX is the only platform that actually does so. Windows has a different mechanism for detecting stack overflow, while the other platforms don't detect it at all. Also, the UNIX stack overflow handling is split between `sys::pal::unix::stack_overflow`, which implements the signal handler, and `sys::pal::unix::thread`, which detects/installs guard pages.
This PR cleans this by getting rid of `Guard` and unifying UNIX stack overflow handling inside `stack_overflow` (commit 1). Therefore we can get rid of `sys_common::thread_info`, which stores `Guard` and the current `Thread` handle and move the `thread::current` TLS variable into `thread` (commit 2).
The second commit is not strictly speaking necessary. To keep the implementation clean, I've included it here, but if it causes too much noise, I can split it out without any trouble.
match lowering: handle or-patterns one layer at a time
`create_or_subcandidates` and `merge_trivial_subcandidates` both call themselves recursively to handle nested or-patterns, which is hard to follow. In this PR I avoid the need for that; we now process a single "layer" of or-patterns at a time.
By calling back into `match_candidates`, we only need to expand one layer at a time. Conversely, since we always try to simplify a layer that we just expanded (thanks to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/123067), we only have to merge one layer at a time.

Don't inherit codegen attrs from parent static
Putting this up partly for discussion and partly for review. Specifically, in #121644, `@oli-obk` designed a system that creates new static items for representing nested allocations in statics. However, in that PR, oli made it so that these statics inherited the codegen attrs from the parent.
This causes problems such as colliding symbols with `#[export_name]` and ICEs with `#[no_mangle]` since these synthetic statics have no `tcx.item_name(..)`.
So the question is, is there any case where we *do* want to inherit codegen attrs from the parent? The only one that seems a bit suspicious is the thread-local attribute. And there may be some interesting interactions with the coverage attributes as well...
Fixes (after backport) #123274. Fixes#123243. cc #121644.

Refactor the way bootstrap invokes `cargo miri`
Instead of basically doing `cargo run --manifest-path=<cargo-miri's manifest> -- miri`, let's invoke the `cargo-miri` binary directly. That means less indirections, and also makes it easier to e.g. run the libcore test suite in Miri. (But there are still other issues with that.)
Also also adjusted Miri's stage numbering so that it is consistent with rustc/rustdoc.
This also makes `./x.py test miri` honor `--no-doc`.
And this fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/123177 by moving where we handle parallel_compiler.
Fix error message for `env!` when env var is not valid Unicode
Currently (without this PR) the `env!` macro emits an ```environment variable `name` not defined at compile time``` error when the environment variable is defined, but not a valid Unicode string. This PR introduces a separate more accurate error message, and a test to verify this behaviour.
For reference, before this PR, the new test would have outputted:
```
error: environment variable `NON_UNICODE_VAR` not defined at compile time
--> non_unicode_env.rs:2:13
|
2 | let _ = env!("NON_UNICODE_VAR");
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
= help: use `std::env::var("NON_UNICODE_VAR")` to read the variable at run time
= note: this error originates in the macro `env` (in Nightly builds, run with -Z macro-backtrace for more info)
error: aborting due to 1 previous error
```
whereas with this PR, the test ouputs:
```
error: environment variable `NON_UNICODE_VAR` is not a valid Unicode string
--> non_unicode_env.rs:2:13
|
2 | let _ = env!("NON_UNICODE_VAR");
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
= note: this error originates in the macro `env` (in Nightly builds, run with -Z macro-backtrace for more info)
error: aborting due to 1 previous error
```
Use the `Align` type when parsing alignment attributes
Use the `Align` type in `rustc_attr::parse_alignment`, removing the need to call `Align::from_bytes(...).unwrap()` later in the compilation process.
doc: describe panic conditions for SliceIndex implementations
Implementation note: The most probable place for users to find the documentation is at https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/slice/trait.SliceIndex.html
On that page, documentation added to specific methods will not be visible. As such, I opted to add the comments to the impl blocks directly.
Helps with #121568.
Rewrite `core-no-fp-fmt-parse` test in Rust
Claiming the simple "core-no-fp-fmt-parse" test from #121876. `run_make_support` was altered with `arg_path` written in #121918 by `@abhay-51,` with additional doc comment.
