Lints never constructed public structs.
If we don't provide public methods to construct public structs with private fields, and don't construct them in the local crate. They would be never constructed. So that we can detect such public structs.

Update:
Also lints unused associated constants in traits.
Parse unsafe attributes
Initial parse implementation for #123757
This is the initial work to parse unsafe attributes, which is represented as an extra `unsafety` field in `MetaItem` and `AttrItem`. There's two areas in the code where it appears that parsing is done manually and not using the parser stuff, and I'm not sure how I'm supposed to thread the change there.
Rename HIR `TypeBinding` to `AssocItemConstraint` and related cleanup
Rename `hir::TypeBinding` and `ast::AssocConstraint` to `AssocItemConstraint` and update all items and locals using the old terminology.
Motivation: The terminology *type binding* is extremely outdated. "Type bindings" not only include constraints on associated *types* but also on associated *constants* (feature `associated_const_equality`) and on RPITITs of associated *functions* (feature `return_type_notation`). Hence the word *item* in the new name. Furthermore, the word *binding* commonly refers to a mapping from a binder/identifier to a "value" for some definition of "value". Its use in "type binding" made sense when equality constraints (e.g., `AssocTy = Ty`) were the only kind of associated item constraint. Nowadays however, we also have *associated type bounds* (e.g., `AssocTy: Bound`) for which the term *binding* doesn't make sense.

Old terminology (HIR, rustdoc):
```
`TypeBinding`: (associated) type binding
├── `Constraint`: associated type bound
└── `Equality`: (associated) equality constraint (?)
├── `Ty`: (associated) type binding
└── `Const`: associated const equality (constraint)
```
Old terminology (AST, abbrev.):
```
`AssocConstraint`
├── `Bound`
└── `Equality`
├── `Ty`
└── `Const`
```
New terminology (AST, HIR, rustdoc):
```
`AssocItemConstraint`: associated item constraint
├── `Bound`: associated type bound
└── `Equality`: associated item equality constraint OR associated item binding (for short)
├── `Ty`: associated type equality constraint OR associated type binding (for short)
└── `Const`: associated const equality constraint OR associated const binding (for short)
```
r? compiler-errors
Remove more `#[macro_use] extern crate tracing`
Because explicit importing of macros via use items is nicer (more standard and readable) than implicit importing via `#[macro_use]`. Continuing the work from #124511 and #124914.
r? `@jackh726`
Fix OutsideLoop's error suggestion: adding label `'block` for `if` block.
For OutsideLoop we should not suggest add `'block` label in `if` block, or we wiil get another err: block label not supported here.
fixes#123261
Move `#[do_not_recommend]` to the `#[diagnostic]` namespace
This commit moves the `#[do_not_recommend]` attribute to the `#[diagnostic]` namespace. It still requires
`#![feature(do_not_recommend)]` to work.
r? `@compiler-errors`
reachable computation: extend explanation of what this does, and why
Follow-up to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/122769. I had the time to think about this some more, in particular in the context of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/119214, so I felt it was worth extending these comments some more.
I also gave up on the context of "externally reachable" as it is not called that way anywhere else in the compiler.

Previously, `break` inside `gen` blocks and functions
were incorrectly identified to be enclosed by a closure.
This PR fixes it by displaying an appropriate error message
for async blocks, async closures, async functions, gen blocks,
gen closures, gen functions, async gen blocks, async gen closures
and async gen functions.
Note: gen closure and async gen closure are not supported by the
compiler yet but I have added an error message here assuming that
they might be implemented in the future.
Also, fixes grammar in a few places by replacing
`inside of a $coroutine` with `inside a $coroutine`.
This moves some code around and adds some documentation comments to make
it easier to understand what's going on with the entrypoint logic, which
is a bit complicated.
The only change in behavior is consolidating the error messages for
unix_sigpipe to make the code slightly simpler.
Change `SIGPIPE` ui from `#[unix_sigpipe = "..."]` to `-Zon-broken-pipe=...`
In the stabilization [attempt](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120832) of `#[unix_sigpipe = "sig_dfl"]`, a concern was [raised ](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120832#issuecomment-2007394609) related to using a language attribute for the feature: Long term, we want `fn lang_start()` to be definable by any crate, not just libstd. Having a special language attribute in that case becomes awkward.
So as a first step towards the next stabilization attempt, this PR changes the `#[unix_sigpipe = "..."]` attribute to a compiler flag `-Zon-broken-pipe=...` to remove that concern, since now the language is not "contaminated" by this feature.
Another point was [also raised](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120832#issuecomment-1987023484), namely that the ui should not leak **how** it does things, but rather what the **end effect** is. The new flag uses the proposed naming. This is of course something that can be iterated on further before stabilization.

weak lang items are not allowed to be #[track_caller]
For instance the panic handler will be called via this import
```rust
extern "Rust" {
#[lang = "panic_impl"]
fn panic_impl(pi: &PanicInfo<'_>) -> !;
}
```
A `#[track_caller]` would add an extra argument and thus make this the wrong signature.
The 2nd commit is a consistency rename; based on the docs [here](https://doc.rust-lang.org/unstable-book/language-features/lang-items.html) and [here](https://rustc-dev-guide.rust-lang.org/lang-items.html) I figured "lang item" is more widely used. (In the compiler output, "lang item" and "language item" seem to be pretty even.)
