Terminals supporting the OSC8 Hyperlink Extension can support inline
anchors where the text is user defineable but clicking on it opens a
browser to a specified URLs, just like `<a href="URL">` does in HTML.

Eager translation will enable subdiagnostics to be translated multiple
times with different arguments - this requires the ability to replace
the value of one argument with a new value, which is better suited to a
`HashMap` than the previous storage, a `Vec`.

Rename the `--output-width` flag to `--diagnostic-width` as this appears
to be the preferred name within the compiler team.

Rename the `--terminal-width` flag to `--output-width` as the behaviour
doesn't just apply to terminals (and so is slightly less accurate).

`--extern-location` was an experiment to investigate the best way to
generate useful diagnostics for unused dependency warnings by enabling a
build system to identify the corresponding build config.
While I did successfully use this, I've since been convinced the
alternative `--json unused-externs` mechanism is the way to go, and
there's no point in having two mechanisms with basically the same
functionality.
This effectively reverts https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/72603
Loading the fallback bundle in compilation sessions that won't go on to
emit any errors unnecessarily degrades compile time performance, so
lazily create the Fluent bundle when it is first required.

Extend loading of Fluent bundles so that bundles can be loaded from the
sysroot based on the language requested by the user, or using a nightly
flag.
Sysroot bundles are loaded from `$sysroot/share/locale/$locale/*.ftl`.

This commit updates the signatures of all diagnostic functions to accept
types that can be converted into a `DiagnosticMessage`. This enables
existing diagnostic calls to continue to work as before and Fluent
identifiers to be provided. The `SessionDiagnostic` derive just
generates normal diagnostic calls, so these APIs had to be modified to
accept Fluent identifiers.
In addition, loading of the "fallback" Fluent bundle, which contains the
built-in English messages, has been implemented.
Each diagnostic now has "arguments" which correspond to variables in the
Fluent messages (necessary to render a Fluent message) but no API for
adding arguments has been added yet. Therefore, diagnostics (that do not
require interpolation) can be converted to use Fluent identifiers and
will be output as before.
`MultiSpan` contains labels, which are more complicated with the
introduction of diagnostic translation and will use types from
`rustc_errors` - however, `rustc_errors` depends on `rustc_span` so
`rustc_span` cannot use types like `DiagnosticMessage` without
dependency cycles. Introduce a new `rustc_error_messages` crate that can
contain `DiagnosticMessage` and `MultiSpan`.

Introduce a `DiagnosticMessage` type that will enable diagnostic
messages to be simple strings or Fluent identifiers.
`DiagnosticMessage` is now used in the implementation of the standard
`DiagnosticBuilder` APIs.

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.
cc ```@jsgf``` ```@ehuss``` ```@petrochenkov``` ```@estebank```
...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.
