The only regression is one ambiguity in the new trait solver, having to
do with two param-env candidates that may apply. I think this is fine,
since the error message already kinda sucks.
Add `implement_via_object` to `rustc_deny_explicit_impl` to control object candidate assembly
Some built-in traits are special, since they are used to prove facts about the program that are important for later phases of compilation such as codegen and CTFE. For example, the `Unsize` trait is used to assert to the compiler that we are able to unsize a type into another type. It doesn't have any methods because it doesn't actually *instruct* the compiler how to do this unsizing, but this is later used (alongside an exhaustive match of combinations of unsizeable types) during codegen to generate unsize coercion code.
Due to this, these built-in traits are incompatible with the type erasure provided by object types. For example, the existence of `dyn Unsize<T>` does not mean that the compiler is able to unsize `Box<dyn Unsize<T>>` into `Box<T>`, since `Unsize` is a *witness* to the fact that a type can be unsized, and it doesn't actually encode that unsizing operation in its vtable as mentioned above.
The old trait solver gets around this fact by having complex control flow that never considers object bounds for certain built-in traits:
2f896da247/compiler/rustc_trait_selection/src/traits/select/candidate_assembly.rs (L61-L132)
However, candidate assembly in the new solver is much more lovely, and I'd hate to add this list of opt-out cases into the new solver. Instead of maintaining this complex and hard-coded control flow, instead we can make this a property of the trait via a built-in attribute. We already have such a build attribute that's applied to every single trait that we care about: `rustc_deny_explicit_impl`. This PR adds `implement_via_object` as a meta-item to that attribute that allows us to opt a trait out of object-bound candidate assembly as well.

Don't consider TAIT normalizable to hidden ty if it would result in impossible item bounds
See test for example where we shouldn't consider it possible to alias-relate a TAIT and hidden type.

Don't ICE on bound var in `reject_fn_ptr_impls`
We may try to use an impl like `impl<T: FnPtr> PartialEq {}` to satisfy a predicate like `for<T> T: PartialEq` -- don't ICE in that case.

Add `AliasKind::Weak` for type aliases.
`type Foo<T: Debug> = Bar<T>;` does not check `T: Debug` at use sites of `Foo<NotDebug>`, because in contrast to a
```rust
trait Identity {
type Identity;
}
impl<T: Debug> Identity for T {
type Identity = T;
}
<NotDebug as Identity>::Identity
```
type aliases do not exist in the type system, but are expanded to their aliased type immediately when going from HIR to the type layer.
Similarly:
* a private type alias for a public type is a completely fine thing, even though it makes it a bit hard to write out complex times sometimes
* rustdoc expands the type alias, even though often times users use them for documentation purposes
* diagnostics show the expanded type, which is confusing if the user wrote a type alias and the diagnostic talks about another type that they don't know about.
For type alias impl trait, these issues do not actually apply in most cases, but sometimes you have a type alias impl trait like `type Foo<T: Debug> = (impl Debug, Bar<T>);`, which only really checks it for `impl Debug`, but by accident prevents `Bar<T>` from only being instantiated after proving `T: Debug`. This PR makes sure that we always check these bounds explicitly and don't rely on an implementation accident.
To not break all the type aliases out there, we only use it when the type alias contains an opaque type. We can decide to do this for all type aliases over an edition.
Or we can later extend this to more types if we figure out the back-compat concerns with suddenly checking such bounds.
As a side effect, easily allows fixing https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/108617, which I did.

Make assumption functions in new solver take `Binder<'tcx, Clause<'tcx>>`
We just use an if-let to match on an optional clause at all the places where we transition from `Predicate` -> `Clause`, but I assume that when things like item-bounds and param-env start to only store `Clause`s then those can just be trivially dropped.

Opportunistically resolve regions in new solver
Use `opportunistic_resolve_var` during canonicalization to collapse some regions.
We have to start using `CanonicalVarValues::is_identity_modulo_regions`. We also have to modify that function to consider responses like `['static, ^0, '^1, ^2]` to be an "identity" response, since because we opportunistically resolve regions, there's no longer a 1:1 mapping between canonical var values and bound var indices in the response...
There's one nasty side-effect -- one test (`tests/ui/dyn-star/param-env-infer.rs`) starts to ICE because the certainty goes from `Yes` to `Maybe(Overflow)`... Not exactly sure why, though? Putting this up for discussion/investigation.

Improve docs/clean up negative overlap functions
Clean up some functions in ways that should not affect behavior, change some names to be clearer (`negative_impl` and `implicit_negative` are not really clear imo), and add some documentation examples.

Collect VTable stats & add `-Zprint-vtable-sizes`
This is a bit hacky/buggy, but I'm not entirely sure how to fix it, so I want to ask reviewers for help...
To try this, use either of those:
- `cargo clean && RUSTFLAGS="-Zprint-vtable-sizes" cargo +toolchain b`
- `cargo clean && cargo rustc +toolchain -Zprint-vtable-sizes`
- `rustc +toolchain -Zprint-vtable-sizes ./file.rs`
Safe Transmute: Enable handling references
This patch enables support for references in Safe Transmute, by generating nested obligations during trait selection. Specifically, when we call `confirm_transmutability_candidate(...)`, we now recursively traverse the `rustc_transmute::Answer` tree and create obligations for all the `Answer` variants, some of which include multiple nested `Answer`s.
- Create `Answer` type that is not just a type alias of `Result`
- Remove a usage of `map_layouts` to make the code easier to read
- Don't hide errors related to Unknown Layout when computing transmutability
