This defers backtrace formatting to the point where we
actually want to flush delayed diagnostics. If they are discarded
before that point then we can avoid invoking the backtrace formatting
machinery which will parse debug info and symbol tables.
for debuginfo=2 this leads to a 20% walltime reduction of the UI testsuite
Add an unstable --json=unused-externs flag to print unused externs
This adds an unstable flag to print a list of the extern names not used by cargo.
This PR will enable cargo to collect unused dependencies from all units and provide warnings.
The companion PR to cargo is: https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/8437
The goal is eventual stabilization of this flag in rustc as well as in cargo.
Discussion of this feature is mostly contained inside these threads: #57274#72342#72603
The feature builds upon the internal datastructures added by #72342
Externs are uniquely identified by name and the information is sufficient for cargo.
If the mode is enabled, rustc will print json messages like:
```
{"unused_extern_names":["byteorder","openssl","webpki"]}
```
For a crate that got passed byteorder, openssl and webpki dependencies but needed none of them.
### Q: Why not pass -Wunused-crate-dependencies?
A: See [ehuss's comment here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/57274#issuecomment-624839355)
TLDR: it's cleaner. Rust's warning system wasn't built to be filtered or edited by cargo.
Even a basic implementation of the feature would have to change the "n warnings emitted" line that rustc prints at the end.
Cargo ideally wants to synthesize its own warnings anyways. For example, it would be hard for rustc to emit warnings like
"dependency foo is only used by dev targets", suggesting to make it a dev-dependency instead.
### Q: Make rustc emit used or unused externs?
A: Emitting used externs has the advantage that it simplifies cargo's collection job.
However, emitting unused externs creates less data to be communicated between rustc and cargo.
Often you want to paste a cargo command obtained from `cargo build -vv` for doing something
completely unrelated. The message is emitted always, even if no warning or error is emitted.
At that point, even this tiny difference in "noise" matters. That's why I went with emitting unused externs.
### Q: One json msg per extern or a collective json msg?
A: Same as above, the data format should be concise. Having 30 lines for the 30 crates a crate uses would be disturbing to readers.
Also it helps the cargo implementation to know that there aren't more unused deps coming.
### Q: Why use names of externs instead of e.g. paths?
A: Names are both sufficient as well as neccessary to uniquely identify a passed `--extern` arg.
Names are sufficient because you *must* pass a name when passing an `--extern` arg.
Passing a path is optional on the other hand so rustc might also figure out a crate's location from the file system.
You can also put multiple paths for the same extern name, via e.g. `--extern hello=/usr/lib/hello.rmeta --extern hello=/usr/local/lib/hello.rmeta`,
but rustc will only ever use one of those paths.
Also, paths don't identify a dependency uniquely as it is possible to have multiple different extern names point to the same path.
So paths are ill-suited for identification.
### Q: What about 2015 edition crates?
A: They are fully supported.
Even on the 2015 edition, an explicit `--extern` flag is is required to enable `extern crate foo;` to work (outside of sysroot crates, which this flag doesn't warn about anyways).
So the lint would still fire on 2015 edition crates if you haven't included a dependency specified in Cargo.toml using `extern crate foo;` or similar.
The lint won't fire if your sole use in the crate is through a `extern crate foo;` statement, but that's not its job.
For detecting unused `extern crate foo` statements, there is the `unused_extern_crates` lint
which can be enabled by `#![warn(unused_extern_crates)]` or similar.

Dubious changes:
- Is anyone else using rustc_apfloat? I feel weird completely deleting
x87 support.
- Maybe some of the dead code in rustc_data_structures, in case someone
wants to use it in the future?
- Don't change rustc_serialize
I plan to scrap most of the json module in the near future (see
https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/418) and fixing the
tests needed more work than I expected.
TODO: check if any of the comments on the deleted code should be kept.
Add function core::iter::zip
This makes it a little easier to `zip` iterators:
```rust
for (x, y) in zip(xs, ys) {}
// vs.
for (x, y) in xs.into_iter().zip(ys) {}
```
You can `zip(&mut xs, &ys)` for the conventional `iter_mut()` and
`iter()`, respectively. This can also support arbitrary nesting, where
it's easier to see the item layout than with arbitrary `zip` chains:
```rust
for ((x, y), z) in zip(zip(xs, ys), zs) {}
for (x, (y, z)) in zip(xs, zip(ys, zs)) {}
// vs.
for ((x, y), z) in xs.into_iter().zip(ys).zip(xz) {}
for (x, (y, z)) in xs.into_iter().zip((ys.into_iter().zip(xz)) {}
```
It may also format more nicely, especially when the first iterator is a
longer chain of methods -- for example:
```rust
iter::zip(
trait_ref.substs.types().skip(1),
impl_trait_ref.substs.types().skip(1),
)
// vs.
trait_ref
.substs
.types()
.skip(1)
.zip(impl_trait_ref.substs.types().skip(1))
```
This replaces the tuple-pair `IntoIterator` in #78204.
There is prior art for the utility of this in [`itertools::zip`].

Rust contains various size checks conditional on target_arch = "x86_64",
but these checks were never intended to apply to
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnux32. Add target_pointer_width = "64" to the
conditions.
Fix ICE caused by suggestion with no code substitutions
Change suggestion logic to filter and checking _before_ creating
specific resolution suggestion.
Assert earlier that suggestions contain code substitions to make it
easier in the future to debug invalid uses. If we find this becomes too
noisy in the wild, we can always make the emitter resilient to these
cases and remove the assertions.
Fix#78651.
Make `treat_err_as_bug` Option<NonZeroUsize>
`rustc -Z treat-err-as-bug=N` already requires `N` to be nonzero when the argument is parsed, so changing the type from `Option<usize>` to `Option<NonZeroUsize>` is a low-hanging fruit in terms of layout optimization.

...so we can skip serializing `tool_metadata` if it hasn't been set.
This makes the output a bit cleaner, and avoiding having to update a
bunch of unrelated tests.
This allows a build system to indicate a location in its own dependency
specification files (eg Cargo's `Cargo.toml`) which can be reported
along side any unused crate dependency.
This supports several types of location:
- 'json' - provide some json-structured data, which is included in the json diagnostics
in a `tool_metadata` field
- 'raw' - emit the provided string into the output. This also appears as a json string in
`tool_metadata`.
If no `--extern-location` is explicitly provided then a default json entry of the form
`"tool_metadata":{"name":<cratename>,"path":<cratepath>}` is emitted.
The tab replacement for diagnostics added in #79757 included a few assertions to
ensure all tab characters are handled appropriately. We've started getting
reports of these assertions firing (#81614). Since it's only a cosmetic issue,
this downgrades the assertions to debug only, so we at least continue compiling
even if the diagnostics might be a tad wonky.
Fixes#81614
Fixes#76267
When there is a single applicable method candidate, but its trait bounds
are not satisfied, we avoid saying that the method is "not found".
Insted, we update the error message to directly mention which bounds are
not satisfied, rather than mentioning them in a note.
Replace tabs earlier in diagnostics
This replaces tabs earlier in the diagnostics emitting process, which allows various margin calculations to ignore the existence of tabs. It does add a string copy for the source lines that are emitted.

Properly handle lint spans after MIR inlining
The first commit shows what happens when we apply mir inlining and then cause lints on the inlined MIR.
The second commit fixes that.
r? `@wesleywiser`
The first use case of this detection of regression for trimmed paths
computation, that is in the case of rustc, which should be computed only
in case of errors or warnings.
Our current user of this method is deeply nested, being a side effect
from `Display` formatting on lots of rustc types. So taking only the
caller to the error message is not enough - we should collect the
traceback instead.
