Turn type inhabitedness into a query to fix `exhaustive_patterns` perf

We measured in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/79394 that enabling the [`exhaustive_patterns` feature](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/51085) causes significant perf degradation. It was conjectured that the culprit is type inhabitedness checking, and [I hypothesized](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/79394#issuecomment-733861149) that turning this computation into a query would solve most of the problem.

This PR turns `tcx.is_ty_uninhabited_from` into a query, and I measured a 25% perf gain on the benchmark that stress-tests `exhaustiveness_patterns`. This more than compensates for the 30% perf hit I measured [when creating it](https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc-perf/pull/801). We'll have to measure enabling the feature again, but I suspect this fixes the perf regression entirely.
I'd like a perf run on this PR obviously.
I made small atomic commits to help reviewing. The first one is just me discovering the "revisions" feature of the testing framework.

I believe there's a push to move things out of `rustc_middle` because it's huge. I guess `inhabitedness/mod.rs` could be moved out, but it's quite small. `DefIdForest` might be movable somewhere too. I don't know what the policy is for that.
