`check_builtin_attribute` calls `parse_meta` to convert an `Attribute`
to a `MetaItem`, which it then checks. However, many callers of
`check_builtin_attribute` start with a `MetaItem`, and then convert it
to an `Attribute` by calling `cx.attribute(meta_item)`. This `MetaItem`
to `Attribute` to `MetaItem` conversion is silly.
This commit adds a new function `check_builtin_meta_item`, which can be
called instead from these call sites. `check_builtin_attribute` also now
calls it. The commit also renames `check_meta` as `check_attr` to better
match its arguments.

`MacArgs` is an enum with three variants: `Empty`, `Delimited`, and `Eq`. It's
used in two ways:
- For representing attribute macro arguments (e.g. in `AttrItem`), where all
three variants are used.
- For representing function-like macros (e.g. in `MacCall` and `MacroDef`),
where only the `Delimited` variant is used.
In other words, `MacArgs` is used in two quite different places due to them
having partial overlap. I find this makes the code hard to read. It also leads
to various unreachable code paths, and allows invalid values (such as
accidentally using `MacArgs::Empty` in a `MacCall`).
This commit splits `MacArgs` in two:
- `DelimArgs` is a new struct just for the "delimited arguments" case. It is
now used in `MacCall` and `MacroDef`.
- `AttrArgs` is a renaming of the old `MacArgs` enum for the attribute macro
case. Its `Delimited` variant now contains a `DelimArgs`.
Various other related things are renamed as well.
These changes make the code clearer, avoids several unreachable paths, and
disallows the invalid values.

Instead of `ast::Lit`.
Literal lowering now happens at two different times. Expression literals
are lowered when HIR is crated. Attribute literals are lowered during
parsing.
This commit changes the language very slightly. Some programs that used
to not compile now will compile. This is because some invalid literals
that are removed by `cfg` or attribute macros will no longer trigger
errors. See this comment for more details:

The value in `MacArgs::Eq` is currently represented as a `Token`.
Because of `TokenKind::Interpolated`, `Token` can be either a token or
an arbitrary AST fragment. In practice, a `MacArgs::Eq` starts out as a
literal or macro call AST fragment, and then is later lowered to a
literal token. But this is very non-obvious. `Token` is a much more
general type than what is needed.
This commit restricts things, by introducing a new type `MacArgsEqKind`
that is either an AST expression (pre-lowering) or an AST literal
(post-lowering). The downside is that the code is a bit more verbose in
a few places. The benefit is that makes it much clearer what the
possibilities are (though also shorter in some other places). Also, it
removes one use of `TokenKind::Interpolated`, taking us a step closer to
removing that variant, which will let us make `Token` impl `Copy` and
remove many "handle Interpolated" code paths in the parser.
Things to note:
- Error messages have improved. Messages like this:
```
unexpected token: `"bug" + "found"`
```
now say "unexpected expression", which makes more sense. Although
arbitrary expressions can exist within tokens thanks to
`TokenKind::Interpolated`, that's not obvious to anyone who doesn't
know compiler internals.
- In `parse_mac_args_common`, we no longer need to collect tokens for
the value expression.

Moving to a dedicated function in preparation for other validation.
The suggestion given didn't consider if it was an inner attribute.
