Treat static refs as `mir::ConstantKind::Val`
With the upcoming introduction of Valtrees we want to treat more values as `mir::ConstantKind::Val` directly.

Always skip arguments that are the defaults of their respective
parameters, to avoid generating inconsistent symbols for builds
with `-Zverbose` flag and without it.
Make it possible to pretty print invalid constants by introducing a
fallible variant of `destructure_const` and falling back to debug
formatting when it fails.
Add support for control-flow protection
This change adds a flag for configuring control-flow protection in the LLVM backend. In Clang, this flag is exposed as `-fcf-protection` with options `none|branch|return|full`. This convention is followed for `rustc`, though as a codegen option: `rustc -Z cf-protection=<none|branch|return|full>`. Tracking issue for future work is #93754.
Rework GAT `where` clause check
rework the GAT where check to use a fixed-point algorithm, and check all GATs in a trait at once

Move transmute_undefined_repr back to nursery
There's still open discussion if this lint is ready to be enabled by
default. We want to give us more time to figure this out and prevent
this lint from getting to stable as an enabled-by-default lint.

r? `@Manishearth` `@dtolnay`
I think this is the way to go here. We can re-enable this lint with the next sync, if we should decide to do so. But I would hold of for this release.
We have until Friday (beta branching) to decide if we want to merge this.
llvm: migrate to new parameter-bearing uwtable attr
In https://reviews.llvm.org/D114543 the uwtable attribute gained a flag
so that we can ask for sync uwtables instead of async, as the former are
much cheaper. The default is async, so that's what I've done here, but I
left a TODO that we might be able to do better.
While in here I went ahead and dropped support for removing uwtable
attributes in rustc: we never did it, so I didn't write the extra C++
bridge code to make it work. Maybe I should have done the same thing
with the `sync|async` parameter but we'll see.
suggest using raw strings when invalid escapes appear in literals
i'd guess about 70% of "bad escape" cases occur when someone meant to use a raw string literal because they're passing it directly to `Regex::new()`.
this emits an advisory (`Applicability::MaybeIncorrect`) `help:` suggestion to the user that they use an `r""` string, on top of the normal notes about looking at the string literal documentation/spec.
Add basic platform support to library/{panic_}unwind for m68k
This PR adds basic platform support for m68k for library/{panic_}unwind for m68k.
Register information for UNWIND_DATA_REG has been extracted from LLVM.
Describe VecDeque with more consistent names
The public documentation of VecDeque starts describing itself as a "queue". In method descriptions, it's ~~never~~ sometimes named queue again, or `VecDeque` (IMO a sometimes useful and often noisy notation) or "deque" or "vector". In examples, `deque`, `v` (hidden in `range_mut`) or `vector`. Here is a subjective attempt at more consistency.
RustHermit and HermitCore is able to run on aarch64 and x86_64.
In the future these operating systems will also support RISC-V.
Consequently, the dependency to a specific target should be removed.
Building hermit-abi fails if the architecture isn't supported.
Overhaul interning.
A number of types are interned and `eq` and `hash` are implemented on
the pointer rather than the contents. But this is not well enforced
within the type system like you might expect.
This PR introduces a new type `Interned` which encapsulates this concept
more rigorously, and uses it to convert a couple of the less common
interned types.

Add a stack-`pin!`-ning macro to `core::pin`.
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/93178
`pin!` allows pinning a value to the stack. Thanks to being implemented in the stdlib, which gives access to `macro` macros, and to the private `.pointer` field of the `Pin` wrapper, [it was recently discovered](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/187312-wg-async-foundations/topic/pin!.20.E2.80.94.20the.20.22definitive.22.20edition.20.28a.20rhs-compatible.20pin-nin.2E.2E.2E/near/268731241) ([archive link](https://zulip-archive.rust-lang.org/stream/187312-wg-async-foundations/topic/A.20rhs-compatible.20pin-ning.20macro.html#268731241)), contrary to popular belief, that it is actually possible to implement and feature such a macro:
```rust
let foo: Pin<&mut PhantomPinned> = pin!(PhantomPinned);
stuff(foo);
```
or, directly:
```rust
stuff(pin!(PhantomPinned));
```
- For context, historically, this used to require one of the two following syntaxes:
- ```rust
let foo = PhantomPinned;
pin!(foo);
stuff(foo);
```
- ```rust
pin! {
let foo = PhantomPinned;
}
stuff(foo);
```
This macro thus allows, for instance, doing things like:
```diff
fn block_on<T>(fut: impl Future<Output = T>) -> T {
// Pin the future so it can be polled.
- let mut fut = Box::pin(fut);
+ let mut fut = pin!(fut);
// Create a new context to be passed to the future.
let t = thread::current();
let waker = Arc::new(ThreadWaker(t)).into();
let mut cx = Context::from_waker(&waker);
// Run the future to completion.
loop {
match fut.as_mut().poll(&mut cx) {
Poll::Ready(res) => return res,
Poll::Pending => thread::park(),
}
}
}
```
- _c.f._, https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.58.1/alloc/task/trait.Wake.html
And so on, and so forth.
I don't think such an API can get better than that, barring full featured language support (`&pin` references or something), so I see no reason not to start experimenting with featuring this in the stdlib already 🙂

# Implementation
The implementation ends up being dead simple (so much it's embarrassing):
```rust
pub macro pin($value:expr $(,)?) {
Pin { pointer: &mut { $value } }
}
```
_and voilà_!
- The key for it working lies in [the rules governing the scope of anonymous temporaries](https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.58.1/reference/destructors.html#temporary-lifetime-extension).
<details><summary>Comments and context</summary>
This is `Pin::new_unchecked(&mut { $value })`, so, for starters, let's
review such a hypothetical macro (that any user-code could define):
```rust
macro_rules! pin {( $value:expr ) => (
match &mut { $value } { at_value => unsafe { // Do not wrap `$value` in an `unsafe` block.
$crate::pin::Pin::<&mut _>::new_unchecked(at_value)
}}
)}
```
Safety:
- `type P = &mut _`. There are thus no pathological `Deref{,Mut}` impls that would break `Pin`'s invariants.
- `{ $value }` is braced, making it a _block expression_, thus **moving** the given `$value`, and making it _become an **anonymous** temporary_.
By virtue of being anonynomous, it can no longer be accessed, thus preventing any attemps to `mem::replace` it or `mem::forget` it, _etc._
This gives us a `pin!` definition that is sound, and which works, but only in certain scenarios:
- If the `pin!(value)` expression is _directly_ fed to a function call:
`let poll = pin!(fut).poll(cx);`
- If the `pin!(value)` expression is part of a scrutinee:
```rust
match pin!(fut) { pinned_fut => {
pinned_fut.as_mut().poll(...);
pinned_fut.as_mut().poll(...);
}} // <- `fut` is dropped here.
```
Alas, it doesn't work for the more straight-forward use-case: `let` bindings.
```rust
let pinned_fut = pin!(fut); // <- temporary value is freed at the end of this statement
pinned_fut.poll(...) // error[E0716]: temporary value dropped while borrowed
// note: consider using a `let` binding to create a longer lived value
```
- Issues such as this one are the ones motivating https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/66
This makes such a macro incredibly unergonomic in practice, and the reason most macros out there had to take the path of being a statement/binding macro (_e.g._, `pin!(future);`) instead of featuring the more intuitive ergonomics of an expression macro.
Luckily, there is a way to avoid the problem. Indeed, the problem stems from the fact that a temporary is dropped at the end of its enclosing statement when it is part of the parameters given to function call, which has precisely been the case with our `Pin::new_unchecked()`!
For instance,
```rust
let p = Pin::new_unchecked(&mut <temporary>);
```
becomes:
```rust
let p = { let mut anon = <temporary>; &mut anon };
```
However, when using a literal braced struct to construct the value, references to temporaries can then be taken. This makes Rust change the lifespan of such temporaries so that they are, instead, dropped _at the end of the enscoping block_.
For instance,
```rust
let p = Pin { pointer: &mut <temporary> };
```
becomes:
```rust
let mut anon = <temporary>;
let p = Pin { pointer: &mut anon };
```
which is *exactly* what we want.
Finally, we don't hit problems _w.r.t._ the privacy of the `pointer` field, or the unqualified `Pin` name, thanks to `decl_macro`s being _fully_ hygienic (`def_site` hygiene).

# TODO
- [x] Add compile-fail tests with attempts to break the `Pin` invariants thanks to the macro (_e.g._, try to access the private `.pointer` field, or see what happens if such a pin is used outside its enscoping scope (borrow error));
- [ ] Follow-up stuff:
- [ ] Try to experiment with adding `pin!` to the prelude: this may require to be handled with some extra care, as it may lead to issues reminiscent of those of `assert_matches!`: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/82913
- [x] Create the tracking issue.
