Auto merge of #29850 - Kimundi:attributes_that_make_a_statement, r=pnkfelix
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/16 and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/15701

- Added syntax support for attributes on expressions and all syntax nodes in statement position.
- Extended `#[cfg]` folder to allow removal of statements, and
of expressions in optional positions like expression lists and trailing
block expressions.
- Extended lint checker to recognize lint levels on expressions and
locals.
- As per RFC, attributes are not yet accepted on `if` expressions.

Examples:
  ```rust
let x = y;
{
        ...
}
assert_eq!((1, #[cfg(unset)] 2, 3), (1, 3));

let FOO = 0;
```

Implementation wise, there are a few rough corners and open questions:
- The parser work ended up a bit ugly.
- The pretty printer change was based mostly on guessing.
- Similar to the `if` case, there are some places in the grammar where a new `Expr` node starts,
  but where it seemed weird to accept attributes and hence the parser doesn't. This includes:
  - const expressions in patterns
  - in the middle of an postfix operator chain (that is, after `.`, before indexing, before calls)
  - on range expressions, since `#[attr] x .. y` parses as  `(#[attr] x) .. y`, which is inconsistent with
    `#[attr] .. y` which would parse as `#[attr] (.. y)`
- Attributes are added as additional `Option<Box<Vec<Attribute>>>` fields in expressions and locals.
- Memory impact has not been measured yet.
- A cfg-away trailing expression in a block does not currently promote the previous `StmtExpr` in a block to a new trailing expr. That is to say, this won't work:
```rust
let x = {
    #[cfg(foo)]
    Foo { data: x }
    #[cfg(not(foo))]
    Foo { data: y }
};
```
- One-element tuples can have their inner expression removed to become Unit, but just Parenthesis can't. Eg, `(#[cfg(unset)] x,) == ()` but `(#[cfg(unset)] x) == error`. This seemed reasonable to me since tuples and unit are type constructors, but could probably be argued either way.
- Attributes on macro nodes are currently unconditionally dropped during macro expansion, which seemed fine since macro disappear at that point?
- Attributes on `ast::ExprParens` will be prepend-ed to the inner expression in the hir folder.
- The work on pretty printer tests for this did trigger, but not fix errors regarding macros:
  - expression `foo![]` prints as `foo!()`
  - expression `foo!{}` prints as `foo!()`
  - statement `foo![];` prints as `foo!();`
  - statement `foo!{};` prints as `foo!();`
  - statement `foo!{}` triggers a `None` unwrap ICE.
