This is done by having the crossbeam dependency inserted into the
proc_macro server code from the server side, to avoid adding a
dependency to proc_macro.
In addition, this introduces a -Z command-line option which will switch
rustc to run proc-macros using this cross-thread executor. With the
changes to the bridge in #98186, #98187, #98188 and #98189, the
performance of the executor should be much closer to same-thread
execution.
In local testing, the crossbeam executor was substantially more
performant than either of the two existing CrossThread strategies, so
they have been removed to keep things simple.
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.

This PR adds an allow-by-default future-compatibility lint
`SEMICOLON_IN_EXPRESSIONS_FROM_MACROS`. It fires when a trailing semicolon in a
macro body is ignored due to the macro being used in expression
position:
```rust
macro_rules! foo {
() => {
true; // WARN
}
}
fn main() {
let val = match true {
true => false,
_ => foo!()
};
}
```
The lint takes its level from the macro call site, and
can be allowed for a particular macro by adding
`#[allow(semicolon_in_expressions_from_macros)]`.
The lint is set to warn for all internal rustc crates (when being built
by a stage1 compiler). After the next beta bump, we can enable
the lint for the bootstrap compiler as well.
