Improve `rustc_parse::Parser`'s debuggability The main event is the final commit where I add `Parser::debug_lookahead`. Everything else was basically cleaning up things that bugged me (debugging, as it were) until I felt comfortable enough to actually work on it. The motivation is that it's annoying as hell to try to figure out how the debug infra works in rustc without having basic queries like `debug!(?parser);` come up "empty". However, Parser has a lot of fields that are mostly irrelevant for most debugging, like the entire ParseSess. I think `Parser::debug_lookahead` with a capped lookahead might be fine as a general-purpose Debug impl, but this adapter version was suggested to allow more choice, and admittedly, it's a refined version of what I was already handrolling just to get some insight going. |

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:
