Currently a `{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage` can be created from any type that
impls `Into<String>`. That includes `&str`, `String`, and `Cow<'static,
str>`, which are reasonable. It also includes `&String`, which is pretty
weird, and results in many places making unnecessary allocations for
patterns like this:
```
self.fatal(&format!(...))
```
This creates a string with `format!`, takes a reference, passes the
reference to `fatal`, which does an `into()`, which clones the
reference, doing a second allocation. Two allocations for a single
string, bleh.
This commit changes the `From` impls so that you can only create a
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage` from `&str`, `String`, or `Cow<'static,
str>`. This requires changing all the places that currently create one
from a `&String`. Most of these are of the `&format!(...)` form
described above; each one removes an unnecessary static `&`, plus an
allocation when executed. There are also a few places where the existing
use of `&String` was more reasonable; these now just use `clone()` at
the call site.
As well as making the code nicer and more efficient, this is a step
towards possibly using `Cow<'static, str>` in
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage::{Str,Eager}`. That would require changing
the `From<&'a str>` impls to `From<&'static str>`, which is doable, but
I'm not yet sure if it's worthwhile.
(This is a large commit. The changes to
`compiler/rustc_middle/src/ty/context.rs` are the most important ones.)
The current naming scheme is a mess, with a mix of `_intern_`, `intern_`
and `mk_` prefixes, with little consistency. In particular, in many
cases it's easy to use an iterator interner when a (preferable) slice
interner is available.
The guiding principles of the new naming system:
- No `_intern_` prefixes.
- The `intern_` prefix is for internal operations.
- The `mk_` prefix is for external operations.
- For cases where there is a slice interner and an iterator interner,
the former is `mk_foo` and the latter is `mk_foo_from_iter`.
Also, `slice_interners!` and `direct_interners!` can now be `pub` or
non-`pub`, which helps enforce the internal/external operations
division.
It's not perfect, but I think it's a clear improvement.

Accept `TyCtxt` instead of `TyCtxtAt` in `Ty::is_*` functions
Functions in answer:
- `Ty::is_freeze`
- `Ty::is_sized`
- `Ty::is_unpin`
- `Ty::is_copy_modulo_regions`
This allows to remove a lot of useless `.at(DUMMY_SP)`, making the code a bit nicer :3

Let's avoid using two different terms for the same thing -- let's just call it "provenance" everywhere.
In Miri, provenance consists of an AllocId and an SbTag (Stacked Borrows tag), which made this even more confusing.
CTFE interning: don't walk allocations that don't need it
The interning of const allocations visits the mplace looking for references to intern. Walking big aggregates like big static arrays can be costly, so we only do it if the allocation we're interning contains references or interior mutability.
Walking ZSTs was avoided before, and this optimization is now applied to cases where there are no references/relocations either.
---
While initially looking at this in the context of #93215, I've been testing with smaller allocations than the 16GB one in that issue, and with different init/uninit patterns (esp. via padding).
In that example, by default, `eval_to_allocation_raw` is the heaviest query followed by `incr_comp_serialize_result_cache`. So I'll show numbers when incremental compilation is disabled, to focus on the const allocations themselves at 95% of the compilation time, at bigger array sizes on these minimal examples like `static ARRAY: [u64; LEN] = [0; LEN];`.
That is a close construction to parts of the `ctfe-stress-test-5` benchmark, which has const allocations in the megabytes, while most crates usually have way smaller ones. This PR will have the most impact in these situations, as the walk during the interning starts to dominate the runtime.
Unicode crates (some of which are present in our benchmarks) like `ucd`, `encoding_rs`, etc come to mind as having bigger than usual allocations as well, because of big tables of code points (in the hundreds of KB, so still an order of magnitude or 2 less than the stress test).
In a check build, for a single static array shown above, from 100 to 10^9 u64s (for lengths in powers of ten), the constant factors are lowered:
(log scales for easier comparisons)
(linear scale for absolute diff at higher Ns)
For one of the alternatives of that issue
```rust
const ROWS: usize = 100_000;
const COLS: usize = 10_000;
static TWODARRAY: [[u128; COLS]; ROWS] = [[0; COLS]; ROWS];
```
we can see a similar reduction of around 3x (from 38s to 12s or so).
For the same size, the slowest case IIRC is when there are uninitialized bytes e.g. via padding
```rust
const ROWS: usize = 100_000;
const COLS: usize = 10_000;
static TWODARRAY: [[(u64, u8); COLS]; ROWS] = [[(0, 0); COLS]; ROWS];
```
then interning/walking does not dominate anymore (but means there is likely still some interesting work left to do here).
Compile times in this case rise up quite a bit, and avoiding interning walks has less impact: around 23%, from 730s on master to 568s with this PR.
Checking the size/alignment of an mplace may be costly, so we only do it
on the types where the walk we want to avoid could be expensive: the larger types
like arrays and slices, rather than on all aggregates being interned.
Reorganizes the previous commits to have a single exit-point to avoid doing the
potentially costly walk. Also moves the relocations tests before the interior
mutability test: only references are important when checking for `UnsafeCell`s
and we're checking if there are any to decide to avoid the walk anyways.
The interning of const allocations visits the mplace looking for references
to intern. Walking big aggregates like big static arrays can be costly,
so we only do it if the allocation we're interning contains references
or interior mutability.
Walking ZSTs was avoided before, and this optimization is now applied
to cases where there are no references/relocations either.
There are a few places were we have to construct it, though, and a few
places that are more invasive to change. To do this, we create a
constructor with a long obvious name.
This commit makes `AdtDef` use `Interned`. Much the commit is tedious
changes to introduce getter functions. The interesting changes are in
`compiler/rustc_middle/src/ty/adt.rs`.
Currently some `Allocation`s are interned, some are not, and it's very
hard to tell at a use point which is which.
This commit introduces `ConstAllocation` for the known-interned ones,
which makes the division much clearer. `ConstAllocation::inner()` is
used to get the underlying `Allocation`.
In some places it's natural to use an `Allocation`, in some it's natural
to use a `ConstAllocation`, and in some places there's no clear choice.
I've tried to make things look as nice as possible, while generally
favouring `ConstAllocation`, which is the type that embodies more
information. This does require quite a few calls to `inner()`.
The commit also tweaks how `PartialOrd` works for `Interned`. The
previous code was too clever by half, building on `T: Ord` to make the
code shorter. That caused problems with deriving `PartialOrd` and `Ord`
for `ConstAllocation`, so I changed it to build on `T: PartialOrd`,
which is slightly more verbose but much more standard and avoided the
problems.
