Rollup merge of #144171 - Nadrieril:exhaustive-witnesses, r=davidtwco

pattern_analysis: add option to get a full set of witnesses

This adds an option to the rustc_pattern_analysis machinery to have it report a complete set of patterns when a match is non-exhaustive (by default we only guarantee to report _some_ missing patterns). This is for use in rust-analyzer.

Leaving as draft until I'm sure this is what r-a needs.
