Parse & reject postfix operators after casts
This adds an explicit error messages for when parsing `x as Type[0]` or similar expressions. Our add an extra parse case for parsing any postfix operator (dot, indexing, method calls, await) that triggers directly after parsing `as` expressions.
My friend and I worked on this together, but they're still deciding on a github username and thus I'm submitting this for both of us.
It will immediately error out, but will also provide the rest of the parser with a useful parse tree to deal with.
There's one decision we made in how this produces the parse tree. In the situation `&x as T[0]`, one could imagine this parsing as either `&((x as T)[0])` or `((&x) as T)[0]`. We chose the latter for ease of implementation, and as it seemed the most intuitive.
Feedback welcome! This is our first change to the parser section, and it might be completely horrible.
Fixes#35813.

This checks whether the memory location of the cast remains the same
after atttempting to parse a postfix operator after a cast has been
parsed. If the address is not the same, an illegal postfix operator
was parsed.
Previously the code generated a hash of the pointer, which was overly
complex and inefficent. Casting the pointers and comparing them
is simpler and more effcient.
parser: `token` -> `normalized_token`, `nonnormalized_token` -> `token`
So, after https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/69006, its follow-ups and an attempt to remove `Parser::prev_span` I came to the conclusion that the unnormalized token and its span is what you want in most cases, so it should be default.
Normalization only makes difference in few cases where we are checking against `token::Ident` or `token::Lifetime` specifically.
This PR uses `normalized_token` for those cases.
Using normalization explicitly means that people writing code should remember about `NtIdent` and `NtLifetime` in general. (That is alleviated by the fact that `token.ident()` and `fn parse_ident_*` are already written.)
Remembering about `NtIdent`, was, however, already the case, kind of, because the implicit normalization was performed only for the current/previous token, but not for things like `look_ahead`.
As a result, most of token classification methods in `token.rs` already take `NtIdent` into account (this PR fixes a few pre-existing minor mistakes though).
The next step is removing `normalized(_prev)_token` entirely and replacing it with `token.ident()` (mostly) and `token.normalize()` (occasionally).
I want to make it a separate PR for that and run it though perf.
`normalized_token` filled on every bump has both a potential to avoid repeated normalization, and to do unnecessary work in advance (it probably doesn't matter anyway, the normalization is very cheap).
r? @Centril
This is a modified version of estebank's suggestion, with a bit of
extra cleanup now that we don't need the different cases for if we can
turn a span into a string or not.
This adds parsing for expressions like 'x as Ty[0]' which will
immediately error out, but still give the rest of the parser a valid
parse tree to continue.
Currently, we emit a "try adding a comma" suggestion if a comma is
missing in a struct definition. However, we emit no such suggestion if a
comma is missing in a struct initializer.
This commit adds a "try adding a comma" suggestion when we don't find a
comma during the parsing of a struct initializer field.
The change to `src/test/ui/parser/removed-syntax-with-1.stderr` isn't
great, but I don't see a good way of avoiding it.
Account for type params on method without parentheses
Account for those type parameters in the structured suggestion when forgetting to call method:
```
error[E0615]: attempted to take value of method `collect` on type `std::vec::IntoIter<_>`
--> $DIR/method-missing-parentheses.rs:2:32
|
LL | let _ = vec![].into_iter().collect::<usize>;
| ^^^^^^^---------
| |
| help: use parentheses to call the method: `collect::<usize>()`
```
Add suggestions when encountering chained comparisons
Ideally, we'd also prevent the type error, which is just extra noise, but that will require moving the error from the parser, and I think the suggestion makes things clear enough for now.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/65659.
