In particular, this allows rustdoc to recover from cycle errors when normalizing associated types for documentation.
In the past, `@jackh726` has said we need to be careful about overflow errors:
> Off the top of my head, we definitely should be careful about treating overflow errors the same as
"not implemented for some reason" errors. Otherwise, you could end up with behavior that is
different depending on recursion depth. But, that might be context-dependent.
But cycle errors should be safe to unconditionally report; they don't depend on the recursion depth, they will always be an error whenever they're encountered.
On later stages, the feature is already stable.

Initial implementation of dyn*
This PR adds extremely basic and incomplete support for [dyn*](https://smallcultfollowing.com/babysteps//blog/2022/03/29/dyn-can-we-make-dyn-sized/). The goal is to get something in tree behind a flag to make collaboration easier, and also to make sure the implementation so far is not unreasonable. This PR does quite a few things:
* Introduce `dyn_star` feature flag
* Adds parsing for `dyn* Trait` types
* Defines `dyn* Trait` as a sized type
* Adds support for explicit casts, like `42usize as dyn* Debug`
* Including const evaluation of such casts
* Adds codegen for drop glue so things are cleaned up properly when a `dyn* Trait` object goes out of scope
* Adds codegen for method calls, at least for methods that take `&self`
Quite a bit is still missing, but this gives us a starting point. Note that this is never intended to become stable surface syntax for Rust, but rather `dyn*` is planned to be used as an implementation detail for async functions in dyn traits.

Make `compare_predicate_entailment` no longer a query
Make `compare_predicate_entailment` so it's no longer a query (again), and splits out the new logic (that equates the return types to infer RPITITs) into its own query. This means that this new query (now called `collect_trait_impl_trait_tys`) is no longer executed for non-RPITIT cases.
This should improve perf (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/101224#issuecomment-1241682203), though in practice we see that these some crates remain from the primary regressions list on the original report... They are all <= 0.43% regression and seemingly only on the incr-full scenario for all of them.
I am at a loss for what might be causing this regression other than what I fixed here, since we don't introduce much new non-RPITIT logic except for some `def_kind` query calls in some places, for example, like projection. Maybe that's it?

Update `SessionDiagnostic::into_diagnostic` to take `Handler` instead of `ParseSess`
Suggested by the team in [this Zulip Topic](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/336883-i18n/topic/.23100717.20SessionDiagnostic.20on.20Handler).
`Handler` already has almost all the capabilities of `ParseSess` when it comes to diagnostic emission, in this migration we only needed to add the ability to access `source_map` from the emitter in order to get a `Snippet` and the `start_point`. Not sure if adding these two methods [`span_to_snippet_from_emitter` and `span_start_point_from_emitter`] is the best way to address this gap.
P.S. If this goes in the right direction, then we probably may want to move `SessionDiagnostic` to `rustc_errors` and rename it to `DiagnosticHandler` or something similar.

Attempt to normalize `FnDef` signature in `InferCtxt::cmp`
Stashes a normalization callback in `InferCtxt` so that the signature we get from `tcx.fn_sig(..).subst(..)` in `InferCtxt::cmp` can be properly normalized, since we cannot expect for it to have normalized types since it comes straight from astconv.
This is kind of a hack, but I will say that `@jyn514` found the fact that we present unnormalized types to be very confusing in real life code, and I agree with that feeling. Though altogether I am still a bit unsure about whether this PR is worth the effort, so I'm open to alternatives and/or just closing it outright.
On the other hand, this isn't a ridiculously heavy implementation anyways -- it's less than a hundred lines of changes, and half of that is just miscellaneous cleanup.
This is stacked onto #100471 which is basically unrelated, and it can be rebased off of that when that lands or if needed.

The code:
```rust
trait Foo { type Bar; }
impl<T> Foo for T {
type Bar = i32;
}
fn foo<T>(_: <T as Foo>::Bar) {}
fn needs_i32_ref_fn(f: fn(&'static i32)) {}
fn main() {
needs_i32_ref_fn(foo::<()>);
}
```
Before:
```
= note: expected fn pointer `fn(&'static i32)`
found fn item `fn(<() as Foo>::Bar) {foo::<()>}`
```
After:
```
= note: expected fn pointer `fn(&'static i32)`
found fn item `fn(i32) {foo::<()>}`
```
Do not leak type variables from opaque type relation
The "root cause" is that we call `InferCtxt::resolve_vars_if_possible` (3d9dd681f5) on the types we get back in `TypeError::Sorts` since I added a call to it in `InferCtxt::same_type_modulo_infer`. However if this `TypeError` comes from a `InferCtxt::commit_if_ok`, then it may reference type variables that do not exist anymore, which is problematic.
We avoid this by substituting the `TypeError` with the types we had before being generalized while handling opaques.
This is kinda gross, and I feel like we can get the same issue from other places where we generalize type/const inference variables. Maybe not? I don't know.

Fall back when relating two opaques by substs in MIR typeck
This is certainly _one_ way to fix#100075. Not really confident it's the _best_ way to do it, though.
The root cause of this issue is that during MIR type-check, we end up trying to equate an opaque against the same opaque def-id but with different substs. Because of the way that we replace RPITs during (HIR) typeck with an inference variable, we don't end up emitting a type-checking error, so the delayed MIR bug causes an ICE.
See the `src/test/ui/impl-trait/issue-100075-2.rs` test below to make that clear -- in that example, we try to equate `{impl Sized} substs=[T]` and `{impl Sized} substs=[Option<T>]`, which causes an ICE. This new logic will instead cause us to infer `{impl Sized} substs=[Option<T>]` as the hidden type for `{impl Sized} substs=[T]`, which causes a proper error to be emitted later on when we check that an opaque isn't recursive.
I'm open to closing this in favor of something else. Ideally we'd fix this in typeck, but the thing we do to ensure backwards compatibility with weird RPIT cases makes that difficult. Also open to discussing this further.

Previously, `infcx.instantiate_canonical_*` maps the root universe in `canonical` into `ty::UniverseIndex::Root`, I think because it assumes it works with a fresh `infcx` but this is not true for the use cases in mir typeck. Now the root universe is mapped into `infcx.universe()`.
I catched this accidentally while reviewing the code. I'm not sure if this is the right fix or if it is really a bug!

Remove the unused StableSet and StableMap types from rustc_data_structures.
The current implementation is not "stable" in the same sense that `HashStable` and `StableHasher` are stable, i.e. across compilation sessions. So, in my opinion, it's better to remove those types (which are basically unused anyway) than to give the wrong impression that these are safe for incr. comp.
I plan to provide new "stable" collection types soon that can be used to replace `FxHashMap` and `FxHashSet` in query results (see [draft](69d03ac7a7)). It's unsound that `HashMap` and `HashSet` implement `HashStable` (see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/98890 for a recent P-critical bug caused by this) -- so we should make some progress there.
Formalize defining_use_anchor

don't use `commit_if_ok` during `higher_ranked_sub`

don't succeed `evaluate_obligation` query if new opaque types were registered
fixes#98608fixes#98604
The root cause of all this is that in type flag computation we entirely ignore nongeneric things like struct fields and the signature of function items. So if a flag had to be set for a struct if it is set for a field, that will only happen if the field is generic, as only the generic parameters are checked.
I now believe we cannot use type flags to handle opaque types. They seem like the wrong tool for this.
Instead, this PR replaces the previous logic by adding a new variant of `EvaluatedToOk`: `EvaluatedToOkModuloOpaqueTypes`, which says that there were some opaque types that got hidden types bound, but that binding may not have been legal (because we don't know if the opaque type was in its defining scope or not).
Make TAIT behave exactly like RPIT

Reverse folder hierarchy
#91318 introduced a trait for infallible folders distinct from the fallible version. For some reason (completely unfathomable to me now that I look at it with fresh eyes), the infallible trait was a supertrait of the fallible one: that is, all fallible folders were required to also be infallible. Moreover the `Error` associated type was defined on the infallible trait! It's so absurd that it has me questioning whether I was entirely sane.
This trait reverses the hierarchy, so that the fallible trait is a supertrait of the infallible one: all infallible folders are required to also be fallible (which is a trivial blanket implementation). This of course makes much more sense! It also enables the `Error` associated type to sit on the fallible trait, where it sensibly belongs.
There is one downside however: folders expose a `tcx` accessor method. Since the blanket fallible implementation for infallible folders only has access to a generic `F: TypeFolder`, we need that trait to expose such an accessor to which we can delegate. Alternatively it's possible to extract that accessor into a separate `HasTcx` trait (or similar) that would then be a supertrait of both the fallible and infallible folder traits: this would ensure that there's only one unambiguous `tcx` method, at the cost of a little additional boilerplate. If desired, I can submit that as a separate PR.

This commit makes type folding more like the way chalk does it.
Currently, `TypeFoldable` has `fold_with` and `super_fold_with` methods.
- `fold_with` is the standard entry point, and defaults to calling
`super_fold_with`.
- `super_fold_with` does the actual work of traversing a type.
- For a few types of interest (`Ty`, `Region`, etc.) `fold_with` instead
calls into a `TypeFolder`, which can then call back into
`super_fold_with`.
With the new approach, `TypeFoldable` has `fold_with` and
`TypeSuperFoldable` has `super_fold_with`.
- `fold_with` is still the standard entry point, *and* it does the
actual work of traversing a type, for all types except types of
interest.
- `super_fold_with` is only implemented for the types of interest.
Benefits of the new model.
- I find it easier to understand. The distinction between types of
interest and other types is clearer, and `super_fold_with` doesn't
exist for most types.
- With the current model is easy to get confused and implement a
`super_fold_with` method that should be left defaulted. (Some of the
precursor commits fixed such cases.)
- With the current model it's easy to call `super_fold_with` within
`TypeFolder` impls where `fold_with` should be called. The new
approach makes this mistake impossible, and this commit fixes a number
of such cases.
- It's potentially faster, because it avoids the `fold_with` ->
`super_fold_with` call in all cases except types of interest. A lot of
the time the compile would inline those away, but not necessarily
always.
Remove migrate borrowck mode
Closes#58781Closes#43234
# Stabilization proposal
This PR proposes the stabilization of `#![feature(nll)]` and the removal of `-Z borrowck`. Current borrow checking behavior of item bodies is currently done by first infering regions *lexically* and reporting any errors during HIR type checking. If there *are* any errors, then MIR borrowck (NLL) never occurs. If there *aren't* any errors, then MIR borrowck happens and any errors there would be reported. This PR removes the lexical region check of item bodies entirely and only uses MIR borrowck. Because MIR borrowck could never *not* be run for a compiled program, this should not break any programs. It does, however, change diagnostics significantly and allows a slightly larger set of programs to compile.
Tracking issue: #43234
RFC: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/2094-nll.md
Version: 1.63 (2022-06-30 => beta, 2022-08-11 => stable).
## Motivation
Over time, the Rust borrow checker has become "smarter" and thus allowed more programs to compile. There have been three different implementations: AST borrowck, MIR borrowck, and polonius (well, in progress). Additionally, there is the "lexical region resolver", which (roughly) solves the constraints generated through HIR typeck. It is not a full borrow checker, but does emit some errors.
The AST borrowck was the original implementation of the borrow checker and was part of the initially stabilized Rust 1.0. In mid 2017, work began to implement the current MIR borrow checker and that effort ompleted by the end of 2017, for the most part. During 2018, efforts were made to migrate away from the AST borrow checker to the MIR borrow checker - eventually culminating into "migrate" mode - where HIR typeck with lexical region resolving following by MIR borrow checking - being active by default in the 2018 edition.
In early 2019, migrate mode was turned on by default in the 2015 edition as well, but with MIR borrowck errors emitted as warnings. By late 2019, these warnings were upgraded to full errors. This was followed by the complete removal of the AST borrow checker.
In the period since, various errors emitted by the MIR borrow checker have been improved to the point that they are mostly the same or better than those emitted by the lexical region resolver.
While there do remain some degradations in errors (tracked under the [NLL-diagnostics tag](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3ANLL-diagnostics), those are sufficiently small and rare enough that increased flexibility of MIR borrow check-only is now a worthwhile tradeoff.
## What is stabilized
As said previously, this does not fundamentally change the landscape of accepted programs. However, there are a [few](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3ANLL-fixed-by-NLL) cases where programs can compile under `feature(nll)`, but not otherwise.
There are two notable patterns that are "fixed" by this stabilization. First, the `scoped_threads` feature, which is a continutation of a pre-1.0 API, can sometimes emit a [weird lifetime error](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/95527) without NLL. Second, actually seen in the standard library. In the `Extend` impl for `HashMap`, there is an implied bound of `K: 'a` that is available with NLL on but not without - this is utilized in the impl.
As mentioned before, there are a large number of diagnostic differences. Most of them are better, but some are worse. None are serious or happen often enough to need to block this PR. The biggest change is the loss of error code for a number of lifetime errors in favor of more general "lifetime may not live long enough" error. While this may *seem* bad, the former error codes were just attempts to somewhat-arbitrarily bin together lifetime errors of the same type; however, on paper, they end up being roughly the same with roughly the same kinds of solutions.
## What isn't stabilized
This PR does not completely remove the lexical region resolver. In the future, it may be possible to remove that (while still keeping HIR typeck) or to remove it together with HIR typeck.
## Tests
Many test outputs get updated by this PR. However, there are number of tests specifically geared towards NLL under `src/test/ui/nll`

rewrite error handling for unresolved inference vars
Pretty much completely rewrites `fn emit_inference_failure_err`.
This new setup should hopefully be easier to extend and is already a lot better when looking for generic arguments.
Because this is a rewrite there are still some parts which are lacking, these are tracked in #94483 and will be fixed in later PRs.

Diagnose anonymous lifetimes errors more uniformly between async and regular fns
Async fns and regular fns are desugared differently. For the former, we create a generic parameter at HIR level. For the latter, we just create an anonymous region for typeck.
I plan to migrate regular fns to the async fn desugaring.
Before that, this PR attempts to merge the diagnostics for both cases.
