`TokenStreamBuilder` exists to concatenate multiple `TokenStream`s
together. This commit removes it, and moves the concatenation
functionality directly into `TokenStream`, via two new methods
`push_tree` and `push_stream`. This makes things both simpler and
faster.
`push_tree` is particularly important. `TokenStreamBuilder` only had a
single `push` method, which pushed a stream. But in practice most of the
time we push a single token tree rather than a stream, and `push_tree`
avoids the need to build a token stream with a single entry (which
requires two allocations, one for the `Lrc` and one for the `Vec`).
The main `push_tree` use arises from a change to one of the `ToInternal`
impls in `proc_macro_server.rs`. It now returns a `SmallVec` instead of
a `TokenStream`. This return value is then iterated over by
`concat_trees`, which does `push_tree` on each element. Furthermore, the
use of `SmallVec` avoids more allocations, because there is always only
one or two token trees.
Note: the removed `TokenStreamBuilder::push` method had some code to
deal with a quadratic blowup case from #57735. This commit removes the
code. I tried and failed to reproduce the blowup from that PR, before
and after this change. Various other changes have happened to
`TokenStreamBuilder` in the meantime, so I suspect the original problem
is no longer relevant, though I don't have proof of this. Generally
speaking, repeatedly extending a `Vec` without pre-determining its
capacity is *not* quadratic. It's also incredibly common, within rustc
and many other Rust programs, so if there were performance problems
there you'd think it would show up in other places, too.
A `TokenStream` contains a `Lrc<Vec<(TokenTree, Spacing)>>`. But this is
not quite right. `Spacing` makes sense for `TokenTree::Token`, but does
not make sense for `TokenTree::Delimited`, because a
`TokenTree::Delimited` cannot be joined with another `TokenTree`.
This commit fixes this problem, by adding `Spacing` to `TokenTree::Token`,
changing `TokenStream` to contain a `Lrc<Vec<TokenTree>>`, and removing the
`TreeAndSpacing` typedef.
The commit removes these two impls:
- `impl From<TokenTree> for TokenStream`
- `impl From<TokenTree> for TreeAndSpacing`
These were useful, but also resulted in code with many `.into()` calls
that was hard to read, particularly for anyone not highly familiar with
the relevant types. This commit makes some other changes to compensate:
- `TokenTree::token()` becomes `TokenTree::token_{alone,joint}()`.
- `TokenStream::token_{alone,joint}()` are added.
- `TokenStream::delimited` is added.
This results in things like this:
```rust
TokenTree::token(token::Semi, stmt.span).into()
```
changing to this:
```rust
TokenStream::token_alone(token::Semi, stmt.span)
```
This makes the type of the result, and its spacing, clearer.
These changes also simplifies `Cursor` and `CursorRef`, because they no longer
need to distinguish between `next` and `next_with_spacing`.

Dubious changes:
- Is anyone else using rustc_apfloat? I feel weird completely deleting
x87 support.
- Maybe some of the dead code in rustc_data_structures, in case someone
wants to use it in the future?
- Don't change rustc_serialize
I plan to scrap most of the json module in the near future (see
https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/418) and fixing the
tests needed more work than I expected.
TODO: check if any of the comments on the deleted code should be kept.
