- Create `Answer` type that is not just a type alias of `Result`
- Remove a usage of `map_layouts` to make the code easier to read
- Don't hide errors related to Unknown Layout when computing transmutability
This patch enables support for references in Safe Transmute, by generating
nested obligations during trait selection. Specifically, when we call
`confirm_transmutability_candidate(...)`, we now recursively traverse the
`rustc_transmute::Answer` tree and create obligations for all the `Answer`
variants, some of which include multiple nested `Answer`s.
Also, to handle recursive types, enable support for coinduction for the Safe
Transmute trait (`BikeshedIntrinsicFrom`) by adding the `#[rustc_coinduction]`
annotation.
Also fix some small logic issues when reducing the `or` and `and` combinations
in `rustc_transmute`, so that we don't end up with additional redundant
`Answer`s in the tree.

This patch updates the error reporting when Safe Transmute is not
possible between 2 types by including the reason.
Also, fix some small bugs that occur when computing the `Answer` for
transmutability.
This PR will fix some typos detected by [typos].
I only picked the ones I was sure were spelling errors to fix, mostly in
the comments.

This initial implementation handles transmutations between types with specified layouts, except when references are involved.
