Suggestion for type mismatch when we need a u8 but the programmer wrote a char literal
Today Rust just points out that we have a char and we need a u8, but if I wrote 'A' then I could fix this by just writing b'A' instead. This code should detect the case where we're about to report a type mismatch of this kind, and the programmer wrote a char literal, and the char they wrote is ASCII, so therefore just prefixing b to make a byte literal will do what they meant.
I have definitely written this mistake more than once, it's not difficult to figure out what to do, but the compiler might as well tell us anyway.
I provided a test with two simple examples where the suggestion is appropriate, and one where it is not because the char literal is not ASCII, showing that the suggestion is only triggered in the former cases.
I have contributed only a small typo doc fix before, so this is my first substantive rustc change.

Switch to `EarlyBinder` for `const_param_default` and `impl_trait_ref` queries
Part of the work to close#105779 and implement https://github.com/rust-lang/types-team/issues/78.
Several queries `X` have a `bound_X` variant that wraps the output in `EarlyBinder`. This PR adds `EarlyBinder` to the return type of `const_param_default` and `impl_trait_ref`, and removes their `bound_X` variants.

Emit a hint for bad call return types due to generic arguments
When the return type of a function call depends on the type of an argument, e.g.
```
fn foo<T>(x: T) -> T {
x
}
```
and the expected type is set due to either an explicitly typed binding, or because the call to the function is in a tail position without semicolon, the current error implies that the argument in the call has the wrong type.
This new hint highlights that the expected type doesn't match the returned type, which matches the argument type, and that that's why we're flagging the argument type.
Fixes#43608.
Add note when `FnPtr` vs. `FnDef` impl trait
I encountered an instance where an `FnPtr` implemented a trait, but I was passing an `FnDef`. I was confused for an hour and to examine the source code of the trait's crate's tests in order to understand how to cast it properly (it didn't help that it was behind a reference). To the end user, it might not be immediately obvious that they are different and how to convert from an `FnDef` to an `FnPtr`, but it is necessary to cast to the generic function in order to compile. It is thus useful to suggest `as` in the help note, (even if the `Fn` output implements the trait).
Emit a single error for contiguous sequences of unknown tokens
Closes#106101
On encountering a sequence of identical source characters which are unknown tokens, note the amount of subsequent characters and advance past them silently. The old behavior was to emit an error and 'help' note for every single one.

Fix aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu_ilp32 target
This was broken because the synthetic object files produced by rustc were for 64-bit AArch64, which caused link failures when combined with 32-bit ILP32 object files.
This PR updates the object crate to 0.30.1 which adds support for generating ILP32 AArch64 object files.
Update `rental` hack to work with remapped paths.
This PR simply switches to an already-existing helper instead of hard-coding a specific enum variant. The new revision of the test fails without the other changes in this PR.
Context: I'm exploring running UI tests with remapped paths by default in #105924 and the rental test was one of the ones that failed.
This may also be useful in the context of https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3127 ("New rustc and Cargo options to allow path sanitisation by default").
Remove duplicate sha-1 dependency
[`sha-1`](https://crates.io/crates/sha-1) is more or less a duplicate of [`sha1`](https://crates.io/crates/sha1). The `sha-1` is deprecated and no longer updated. This updates the dependencies to use the new name.
Some other dependencies that got updated as a consequence:
* The updated pest dependencies are currently only used by mdbook, and shouldn't have any issues.
* ucd-trie 0.1.3 to 0.1.5: No changelog, but looks like some tables were updated for new unicode versions: https://github.com/BurntSushi/ucd-generate/commits/master/ucd-trie. This is only used by pest (and thus mdbook).
* thiserror 1.33 to 1.38: Nothing significant in the notes at https://github.com/dtolnay/thiserror/releases.
riscv: Fix ELF header flags
The previous version added both `EF_RISCV_FLOAT_ABI_DOUBLE` and `EF_RISCV_RVC` if the "D" extension was enabled on riscv64 targets. riscv32 targets were not accounted for. This patch changes this so that:
- Only add `EF_RISCV_RVC` if the "C" extension is enabled
- Add `EF_RISCV_FLOAT_ABI_SINGLE` if the "F" extension is enabled and the "D" extension is not
- Add these ELF flags for riscv32 as well
Fixes#104284

Warn when using panic-strategy abort for proc-macro crates
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/82320, this simply warns for now as that seems like the best step that can be immediately taken (opposed to straight up rejecting or ignoring)
Fix linker detection for linker (drivers) with a version postfix (e.g. clang-12 instead of clang)
Linker (drivers) such as clang / gcc or lld often have a version postfix matching the regex "-\d+$".
Previously, linker detection did not account for the possible version postfix and the fallback value was used, which can cause linker errors due to wrong arguments.
Also remove the check for `-clang`, since there are no architecture specific variants of clang (to my knowledge).
Fixes#106454

Add log-backtrace option to show backtraces along with logging
according to #90698, I added a compiler option, `-Zlog-backtrace=filter`, where `filter` is a module name, to show backtraces for logging without rebuilding.
resolve#90698
Linker drivers such as gcc, clang or lld often have a version postfix,
e.g clang-12. The previous logic would not account for this and would
fall back to guessing the linker flavor to be the default linker flavor
for the target, which causes linker errors when this is not the case.
By accounting for the possible version postfix and also considering
g++ and clang++, we considerably reduce the amount of times the
fallback guess has to be used.
To simplify matching check for a version postfix and match against the
linker stem without any version postfix.
In contrast to gcc, clang supports all architectures in one binary.
This means there are no variants like `aarch64-linux-gnu-clang` and
there is no need to check for `-clang` variants.
