Stabilize #[diagnostic::do_not_recommend]
This commit seeks to stabilize the `#[diagnostic::do_not_recommend]`
attribute.
This attribute was first proposed as `#[do_not_recommend`] attribute in
RFC 2397 (https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2397). It gives the
crate authors the ability to not suggest to the compiler to not show
certain traits in it's error messages. With the presence of the
`#[diagnostic]` tool attribute namespace it was decided to move the
attribute there, as that lowers the amount of guarantees the compiler
needs to give about the exact way this influences error messages. It
turns the attribute into a hint which can be ignored. In addition to the
original proposed functionality this attribute now also hides the marked
trait in help messages ("This trait is implemented by: ").
The attribute does not accept any argument and can only be placed on
trait implementations. If it is placed somewhere else a lint warning is
emitted and the attribute is otherwise ignored. If an argument is
detected a lint warning is emitted and the argument is ignored. This
follows the rules outlined by the diagnostic namespace.

This attribute allows crates like diesel to improve their error messages
drastically. The most common example here is the following error
message:

```
error[E0277]: the trait bound `&str: Expression` is not satisfied
  --> /home/weiznich/Documents/rust/rust/tests/ui/diagnostic_namespace/do_not_recommend.rs:53:15
   |
LL |     SelectInt.check("bar");
   |               ^^^^^ the trait `Expression` is not implemented for `&str`, which is required by `&str: AsExpression<Integer>`
   |
   = help: the following other types implement trait `Expression`:
             Bound<T>
             SelectInt
note: required for `&str` to implement `AsExpression<Integer>`
  --> /home/weiznich/Documents/rust/rust/tests/ui/diagnostic_namespace/do_not_recommend.rs:26:13
   |
LL | impl<T, ST> AsExpression<ST> for T
   |             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^     ^
LL | where
LL |     T: Expression<SqlType = ST>,
   |        ------------------------ unsatisfied trait bound introduced here
```

By applying the new attribute to the wild card trait implementation of
`AsExpression` for `T: Expression` the error message becomes:

```
error[E0277]: the trait bound `&str: AsExpression<Integer>` is not satisfied
  --> $DIR/as_expression.rs:55:15
   |
LL |     SelectInt.check("bar");
   |               ^^^^^ the trait `AsExpression<Integer>` is not implemented for `&str`
   |
   = help: the trait `AsExpression<Text>` is implemented for `&str`
   = help: for that trait implementation, expected `Text`, found `Integer`
```

which makes it much easier for users to understand that they are facing
a type mismatch.

2620eb42d7 Re-export more rustc_span::symbol things from rustc_span.
`rustc_span::symbol` defines some things that are re-exported from
`rustc_span`, such as `Symbol` and `sym`. But it doesn't re-export some
closely related things such as `Ident` and `kw`. So you can do `use
rustc_span::{Symbol, sym}` but you have to do `use
rustc_span::symbol::{Ident, kw}`, which is inconsistent for no good
reason.

This commit re-exports `Ident`, `kw`, and `MacroRulesNormalizedIdent`,
and changes many `rustc_span::symbol::` qualifiers in `compiler/` to
`rustc_span::`. This is a 200+ net line of code reduction, mostly
because many files with two `use rustc_span` items can be reduced to
one.

327c7ee436 Auto merge of #133099 - RalfJung:forbidden-hardfloat-features, r=workingjubilee
forbid toggling x87 and fpregs on hard-float targets

Part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/116344, follow-up to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/129884:

The `x87`  target feature on x86 and the `fpregs` target feature on ARM must not be disabled on a hardfloat target, as that would change the float ABI. However, *enabling* `fpregs` on ARM is [explicitly requested](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/130988) as it seems to be useful. Therefore, we need to refine the distinction of "forbidden" target features and "allowed" target features: all (un)stable target features can determine on a per-target basis whether they should be allowed to be toggled or not. `fpregs` then checks whether the current target has the `soft-float` feature, and if yes, `fpregs` is permitted -- otherwise, it is not. (Same for `x87` on x86).

Also fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/132351. Since `fpregs` and `x87` can be enabled on some builds and disabled on others, it would make sense that one can query it via `cfg`. Therefore, I made them behave in `cfg` like any other unstable target feature.

The first commit prepares the infrastructure, but does not change behavior. The second commit then wires up `fpregs` and `x87` with that new infrastructure.

9ac95c10c0 Introduce default_field_values feature
Initial implementation of `#[feature(default_field_values]`, proposed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3681.

Support default fields in enum struct variant

Allow default values in an enum struct variant definition:

```rust
pub enum Bar {
    Foo {
        bar: S = S,
        baz: i32 = 42 + 3,
    }
}
```

Allow using `..` without a base on an enum struct variant

```rust
Bar::Foo { .. }
```

`#[derive(Default)]` doesn't account for these as it is still gating `#[default]` only being allowed on unit variants.

Support `#[derive(Default)]` on enum struct variants with all defaulted fields

```rust
pub enum Bar {
    #[default]
    Foo {
        bar: S = S,
        baz: i32 = 42 + 3,
    }
}
```

Check for missing fields in typeck instead of mir_build.

Expand test with `const` param case (needs `generic_const_exprs` enabled).

Properly instantiate MIR const

The following works:

```rust
struct S<A> {
    a: Vec<A> = Vec::new(),
}
S::<i32> { .. }
```

Add lint for default fields that will always fail const-eval

We *allow* this to happen for API writers that might want to rely on users'
getting a compile error when using the default field, different to the error
that they would get when the field isn't default. We could change this to
*always* error instead of being a lint, if we wanted.

This will *not* catch errors for partially evaluated consts, like when the
expression relies on a const parameter.

Suggestions when encountering `Foo { .. }` without `#[feature(default_field_values)]`:

 - Suggest adding a base expression if there are missing fields.
 - Suggest enabling the feature if all the missing fields have optional values.
 - Suggest removing `..` if there are no missing fields.

Rollup merge of #131664 - taiki-e:s390x-asm-vreg-inout, r=Amanieu
Support input/output in vector registers of s390x inline assembly (under asm_experimental_reg feature)

This extends currently clobber-only vector registers (`vreg`) support to allow passing `#[repr(simd)]` types, floats (f32/f64/f128), and integers (i32/i64/i128) as input/output.

This is unstable and gated under new `#![feature(asm_experimental_reg)]` (tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/133416). If the feature is not enabled, only clober is supported as before.

| Architecture | Register class | Target feature | Allowed types |
| ------------ | -------------- | -------------- | -------------- |
| s390x | `vreg` | `vector` | `i32`, `f32`, `i64`, `f64`, `i128`, `f128`, `i8x16`, `i16x8`, `i32x4`, `i64x2`, `f32x4`, `f64x2` |

This matches the list of types that are supported by the vector registers in LLVM:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-19.1.0/llvm/lib/Target/SystemZ/SystemZRegisterInfo.td#L301-L313

In addition to `core::simd` types and floats listed above, custom `#[repr(simd)]` types of the same size and type are also allowed. All allowed types other than i32/f32/i64/f64/i128, and relevant target features are currently unstable.

Currently there is no SIMD type for s390x in `core::arch`, but this is tracked in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/130869.

a0215d8e46 Re-do recursive const stability checks
Fundamentally, we have *three* disjoint categories of functions:
1. const-stable functions
2. private/unstable functions that are meant to be callable from const-stable functions
3. functions that can make use of unstable const features

This PR implements the following system:
- `#[rustc_const_stable]` puts functions in the first category. It may only be applied to `#[stable]` functions.
- `#[rustc_const_unstable]` by default puts functions in the third category. The new attribute `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` can be added to such a function to move it into the second category.
- `const fn` without a const stability marker are in the second category if they are still unstable. They automatically inherit the feature gate for regular calls, it can now also be used for const-calls.

Also, several holes in recursive const stability checking are being closed.
There's still one potential hole that is hard to avoid, which is when MIR
building automatically inserts calls to a particular function in stable
functions -- which happens in the panic machinery. Those need to *not* be
`rustc_const_unstable` (or manually get a `rustc_const_stable_indirect`) to be
sure they follow recursive const stability. But that's a fairly rare and special
case so IMO it's fine.

The net effect of this is that a `#[unstable]` or unmarked function can be
constified simply by marking it as `const fn`, and it will then be
const-callable from stable `const fn` and subject to recursive const stability
requirements. If it is publicly reachable (which implies it cannot be unmarked),
it will be const-unstable under the same feature gate. Only if the function ever
becomes `#[stable]` does it need a `#[rustc_const_unstable]` or
`#[rustc_const_stable]` marker to decide if this should also imply
const-stability.

Adding `#[rustc_const_unstable]` is only needed for (a) functions that need to
use unstable const lang features (including intrinsics), or (b) `#[stable]`
functions that are not yet intended to be const-stable. Adding
`#[rustc_const_stable]` is only needed for functions that are actually meant to
be directly callable from stable const code. `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` is
used to mark intrinsics as const-callable and for `#[rustc_const_unstable]`
functions that are actually called from other, exposed-on-stable `const fn`. No
other attributes are required.

# Tl;dr:

* This PR removes the bulk of the old effect desugaring.
* This PR reimplements most of the effect desugaring as a new predicate and set of a couple queries. I believe it majorly simplifies the implementation and allows us to move forward more easily on its implementation.

I'm putting this up both as a request for comments and a vibe-check, but also as a legitimate implementation that I'd like to see land (though no rush of course on that last part).

## Background

### Early days

Once upon a time, we represented trait constness in the param-env and in `TraitPredicate`. This was very difficult to implement correctly; it had bugs and was also incomplete; I don't think this was anyone's fault though, it was just the limit of experimental knowledge we had at that point.

Dealing with `~const` within predicates themselves meant dealing with constness all throughout the trait solver. This was difficult to keep track of, and afaict was not handled well with all the corners of candidate assembly.

Specifically, we had to (in various places) remap constness according to the param-env constness:

574b64a97f/compiler/rustc_trait_selection/src/traits/select/mod.rs (L1498)

This was annoying and manual and also error prone.

### Beginning of the effects desugaring

Later on, #113210 reimplemented a new desugaring for const traits via a `<const HOST: bool>` predicate. This essentially "reified" the const checking and separated it from any of the remapping or separate tracking in param-envs. For example, if I was in a const-if-const environment, but I wanted to call a trait that was non-const, this reification would turn the constness mismatch into a simple *type* mismatch of the effect parameter.

While this was a monumental step towards straightening out const trait checking in the trait system, it had its own issues, since that meant that the constness of a trait (or any item within it, like an associated type) was *early-bound*. This essentially meant that `<T as Trait>::Assoc` was *distinct* from `<T as ~const Trait>::Assoc`, which was bad.

### Associated-type bound based effects desugaring

After this, #120639 implemented a new effects desugaring. This used an associated type to more clearly represent the fact that the constness is not an input parameter of a trait, but a property that could be computed of a impl. The write-up linked in that PR explains it better than I could.

However, I feel like it really reached the limits of what can comfortably be expressed in terms of associated type and trait calculus. Also, `<const HOST: bool>` remains a synthetic const parameter, which is observable in nested items like RPITs and closures, and comes with tons of its own hacks in the astconv and middle layer.

For example, there are pieces of unintuitive code that are needed to represent semantics like elaboration, and eventually will be needed to make error reporting intuitive, and hopefully in the future assist us in implementing built-in traits (eventually we'll want something like `~const Fn` trait bounds!).

elaboration hack: 8069f8d17a/compiler/rustc_type_ir/src/elaborate.rs (L133-L195)

trait bound remapping hack for diagnostics: 8069f8d17a/compiler/rustc_trait_selection/src/error_reporting/traits/fulfillment_errors.rs (L2370-L2413)

I want to be clear that I don't think this is a issue of implementation quality or anything like that; I think it's simply a very clear sign that we're using types and traits in a way that they're not fundamentally supposed to be used, especially given that constness deserves to be represented as a first-class concept.

### What now?

This PR implements a new desugaring for const traits. Specifically, it introduces a `HostEffect` predicate to represent the obligation an impl is const, rather than using associated type bounds and the compat trait that exists for effects today.

### `HostEffect` predicate

A `HostEffect` clause has two parts -- the `TraitRef` we're trying to prove, and a `HostPolarity::{Maybe, Const}`.

`HostPolarity::Const` corresponds to `T: const Trait` bounds, which must *always* be proven as const, and which can be written in any context. These are lowered directly into the predicates of an item, since they're not "context-specific".

On the other hand, `HostPolarity::Maybe` corresponds to `T: ~const Trait` bounds which must only exist in a conditionally-const context like a method in a `#[const_trait]`, or a `const fn` free function. We do not lower these immediately into the predicates of an item; instead, we collect them into a new query called the **`const_conditions`**. These are the set of trait refs that we need to prove have const implementations for an item to be const.

Notably, they're represented as bare (poly) trait refs because they are meant to be paired back together with a `HostPolarity` when they're being registered in typeck (see next section).

For example, given:

```rust
const fn foo<T: ~const A + const B>() {}
```

`foo`'s const conditions would contain `T: A`, but not `T: B`. On the flip side, foo's predicates (`predicates_of`) query would contain `HostEffect(T: B, HostPolarity::Const)` but not `HostEffect(T: A, HostPolarity::Maybe)` since we don't need to prove that predicate in a non-const environment (and it's not even the right predicate to prove in an unconditionally const environment).

### Type checking const bodies

When type checking bodies in HIR, when we encounter a call expression, we additionally register the callee item's const conditions with the `HostPolarity` from the body we're typechecking (`Const` for unconditionally const things like `const`/`static` items, and `Maybe` for conditionally const things like const fns; and we don't register `HostPolarity` predicates for non-const bodies).

When type-checking a conditionally const body, we augment its param-env with `HostEffect(..., Maybe)` predicates.

### Checking that const impls are WF

We extend the logic in `compare_method_predicate_entailment` to also check the const-conditions of the impl method, to make sure that we error for:

```rust
#[const_trait] Bar {}
#[const_trait] trait Foo {
    fn method<T: Bar>();
}

impl Foo for () {
    fn method<T: ~const Bar>() {} // stronger assumption!
}
```

We also extend the WF check for impls to register the const conditions of the trait that is being implemented. This is to make sure we error for:

```rust
#[const_trait] trait Bar {}
#[const_trait] trait Foo<T> where T: ~const Bar {}

impl<T> const Foo<T> for () {}
//~^ `T: ~const Bar` is missing!
```

### Proving a `HostEffect` predicate

We have several ways of proving a `HostEffect` predicate:

1. Matching a `HostEffect` predicate from the param-env
2. From an impl - we do impl selection very similar to confirming a trait goal, except we filter for only const impls, and we additionally register the impl's const conditions (i.e. the impl's `~const` where clauses).

Later I expect that we will add more built-in implementations for things like `Fn`.

## What next?

After this PR, I'd like to split out the work more so it can proceed in parallel and probably amongst others that are not me.

* Register `HostEffect` goal for places in HIR typeck that correspond to call terminators, like autoderef.
* Make traits in libstd const again.
    * Probably need to impl host effect preds in old solver.
* Implement built-in `HostEffect` rules for traits like `Fn`.
* Rip out const checking from MIR altogether.

## So what?

This ends up being super convenient basically everywhere in the compiler. Due to the design of the new trait solver, we end up having an almost parallel structure to the existing trait and projection predicates for assembling `HostEffect` predicates; adding new candidates and especially new built-in implementations is now basically trivial, and it's quite straightforward to understand the confirmation logic for these predicates.

Same with diagnostics reporting; since we have predicates which represent the obligation to prove an impl is const, we can simplify and make these diagnostics richer without having to write a ton of logic to intercept and rewrite the existing `Compat` trait errors.

Finally, it gives us a much more straightforward path for supporting the const effect on the old trait solver. I'm personally quite passionate about getting const trait support into the hands of users without having to wait until the new solver lands[^1], so I think after this PR lands we can begin to gauge how difficult it would be to implement constness in the old trait solver too. This PR will not do this yet.
