This PR extends the language with a new lang item for the `Pointee` trait which is special-cased in trait resolution to implement it for all types. Even in generic contexts, parameters can be assumed to implement it without a corresponding bound.
For this I mostly imitated what the compiler was already doing for the `DiscriminantKind` trait. I’m very unfamiliar with compiler internals, so careful review is appreciated.
This PR also extends the standard library with new unstable APIs in `core::ptr` and `std::ptr`:
```rust
pub trait Pointee {
/// One of `()`, `usize`, or `DynMetadata<dyn SomeTrait>`
type Metadata: Copy + Send + Sync + Ord + Hash + Unpin;
}
pub trait Thin = Pointee<Metadata = ()>;
pub const fn metadata<T: ?Sized>(ptr: *const T) -> <T as Pointee>::Metadata {}
pub const fn from_raw_parts<T: ?Sized>(*const (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> *const T {}
pub const fn from_raw_parts_mut<T: ?Sized>(*mut (),<T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> *mut T {}
impl<T: ?Sized> NonNull<T> {
pub const fn from_raw_parts(NonNull<()>, <T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> NonNull<T> {}
/// Convenience for `(ptr.cast(), metadata(ptr))`
pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (NonNull<()>, <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}
impl<T: ?Sized> *const T {
pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (*const (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}
impl<T: ?Sized> *mut T {
pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (*mut (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}
/// `<dyn SomeTrait as Pointee>::Metadata == DynMetadata<dyn SomeTrait>`
pub struct DynMetadata<Dyn: ?Sized> {
// Private pointer to vtable
}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> DynMetadata<Dyn> {
pub fn size_of(self) -> usize {}
pub fn align_of(self) -> usize {}
pub fn layout(self) -> crate::alloc::Layout {}
}
unsafe impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Send for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
unsafe impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Sync for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Debug for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Unpin for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Copy for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Clone for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Eq for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> PartialEq for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Ord for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> PartialOrd for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Hash for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
```
API differences from the RFC, in areas noted as unresolved questions in the RFC:
* Module-level functions instead of associated `from_raw_parts` functions on `*const T` and `*mut T`, following the precedent of `null`, `slice_from_raw_parts`, etc.
* Added `to_raw_parts`
Implement reborrow for closure captures
The strategy for captures is detailed here with examples: https://hackmd.io/PzxYMPY4RF-B9iH9uj9GTA
Key points:
- We only need to reborrow a capture in case of move closures.
- If we mutate something via a `&mut` we store it as a `MutBorrow`/`UniqueMuBorrow` of the path containing the `&mut`,
- Similarly, if it's read via `&` ref we just store it as a `ImmBorrow` of the path containing the `&` ref.
- If a path doesn't deref a `&mut`, `&`, then that path is captured by Move.
- If the use of a path results in a move when the closure is called, then that path is truncated before any deref and the truncated path is moved into the closure.
- In the case of non-move closure if a use of a path results in a move, then the path is truncated before any deref and the truncated path is moved into the closure.
Note that the implementation differs a bit from the document to allow for truncated path to be used in the ClosureKind analysis that happens as part of the first capture analysis pass.

Placeholder lifetime error cleanup
- Remove note of trait definition
- Avoid repeating the same self type
- Use original region names when possible
- Use this error kind more often
- Print closure signatures when they are suppose to implement `Fn*` traits
Works towards #57374

Fix debug information for function arguments of type &str or slice.
Issue details:
When lowering MIR to LLVM IR, the compiler decomposes every &str and slice argument into a data pointer and a usize. Then, the original argument is reconstructed from the pointer and the usize arguments in the body of the function that owns it. Since the original argument is declared in the body of a function, it should be marked as a LocalVariable instead of an ArgumentVairable. This confusion causes MSVC debuggers unable to visualize &str and slice arguments correctly. (See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/81894 for more details).
Fix details:
Making sure that the debug variable for every &str and slice argument is marked as LocalVariable instead of ArgumentVariable in computing_per_local_var_debug_info. This change has been verified on VS Code debugger, VS debugger, WinDbg and LLDB.
Fix SourceMap::start_point
`start_point` needs to return the *first* character's span, but it would
previously call `find_width_of_character_at_span` which returns the span
of the *last* character. The implementation is now fixed.
Other changes:
- Docs for start_point, end_point, find_width_of_character_at_span
updated
- Minor simplification in find_width_of_character_at_span code
Fixes#81800
Don't fail to remove files if they are missing
In the backend we may want to remove certain temporary files, but in
certain other situations these files might not be produced in the first
place. We don't exactly care about that, and the intent is really that
these files are gone after a certain point in the backend.
Here we unify the backend file removing calls to use `ensure_removed`
which will attempt to delete a file, but will not fail if it does not
exist (anymore).
The tradeoff to this approach is, of course, that we may miss instances
were we are attempting to remove files at wrong paths due to some bug –
compilation would silently succeed but the temporary files would remain
there somewhere.
Add 'consider using' message to overflowing_literals
Fixes#79744.
Ironically, the `overflowing_literals` handler for binary or hex already
had this message! You would think it would be the other way around :)

Only store a LocalDefId in some HIR nodes
Some HIR nodes are guaranteed to be HIR owners: Item, TraitItem, ImplItem, ForeignItem and MacroDef.
As a consequence, we do not need to store the `HirId`'s `local_id`, and we can directly store a `LocalDefId`.
This allows to avoid a bit of the dance with `tcx.hir().local_def_id` and `tcx.hir().local_def_id_to_hir_id` mappings.
validation: fix invalid-fn-ptr error message
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/82061 changed the code here to print an `ImmTy` instead of a `ScalarMaybeUninit`; that was an accident. So go back to printing a `ScalarMaybeUninit`.

avoid full-slicing slices
If we already have a slice, there is no need to get another full-range slice from that, just use the original.
clippy::redundant_slicing
Along the way, we also implement a handful of diagnostics improvements
and fixes, particularly with respect to the special handling of `||` in
place of `|` and when there are leading verts in function params, which
don't allow top-level or-patterns anyway.
32-bit ARM: Emit `lr` instead of `r14` when specified as an `asm!` output register.
On 32-bit ARM platforms, the register `r14` has the alias `lr`. When used as an output register in `asm!`, rustc canonicalizes the name to `r14`. LLVM only knows the register by the name `lr`, and rejects it. This changes rustc's LLVM code generation to output `lr` instead.
