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`. |

The rustc_ast
crate contains those things concerned purely with syntax
– that is, the AST ("abstract syntax tree"), along with some definitions for tokens and token streams, data structures/traits for mutating ASTs, and shared definitions for other AST-related parts of the compiler (like the lexer and macro-expansion).
For more information about how these things work in rustc, see the rustc dev guide:
