This works for most of its call sites. This is nice, because `emit` very much makes sense as a consuming operation -- indeed, `DiagnosticBuilderState` exists to ensure no diagnostic is emitted twice, but it uses runtime checks. For the small number of call sites where a consuming emit doesn't work, the commit adds `DiagnosticBuilder::emit_without_consuming`. (This will be removed in subsequent commits.) Likewise, `emit_unless` becomes consuming. And `delay_as_bug` becomes consuming, while `delay_as_bug_without_consuming` is added (which will also be removed in subsequent commits.) All this requires significant changes to `DiagnosticBuilder`'s chaining methods. Currently `DiagnosticBuilder` method chaining uses a non-consuming `&mut self -> &mut Self` style, which allows chaining to be used when the chain ends in `emit()`, like so: ``` struct_err(msg).span(span).emit(); ``` But it doesn't work when producing a `DiagnosticBuilder` value, requiring this: ``` let mut err = self.struct_err(msg); err.span(span); err ``` This style of chaining won't work with consuming `emit` though. For that, we need to use to a `self -> Self` style. That also would allow `DiagnosticBuilder` production to be chained, e.g.: ``` self.struct_err(msg).span(span) ``` However, removing the `&mut self -> &mut Self` style would require that individual modifications of a `DiagnosticBuilder` go from this: ``` err.span(span); ``` to this: ``` err = err.span(span); ``` There are *many* such places. I have a high tolerance for tedious refactorings, but even I gave up after a long time trying to convert them all. Instead, this commit has it both ways: the existing `&mut self -> Self` chaining methods are kept, and new `self -> Self` chaining methods are added, all of which have a `_mv` suffix (short for "move"). Changes to the existing `forward!` macro lets this happen with very little additional boilerplate code. I chose to add the suffix to the new chaining methods rather than the existing ones, because the number of changes required is much smaller that way. This doubled chainging is a bit clumsy, but I think it is worthwhile because it allows a *lot* of good things to subsequently happen. In this commit, there are many `mut` qualifiers removed in places where diagnostics are emitted without being modified. In subsequent commits: - chaining can be used more, making the code more concise; - more use of chaining also permits the removal of redundant diagnostic APIs like `struct_err_with_code`, which can be replaced easily with `struct_err` + `code_mv`; - `emit_without_diagnostic` can be removed, which simplifies a lot of machinery, removing the need for `DiagnosticBuilderState`. |

The driver
crate is effectively the "main" function for the rust
compiler. It orchestrates the compilation process and "knits together"
the code from the other crates within rustc. This crate itself does
not contain any of the "main logic" of the compiler (though it does
have some code related to pretty printing or other minor compiler
options).
For more information about how the driver works, see the rustc dev guide.
