Compiler: Rename "object safe" to "dyn compatible"
Completed T-lang FCP: https://github.com/rust-lang/lang-team/issues/286#issuecomment-2338905118.
Tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/130852
Excludes `compiler/rustc_codegen_cranelift` (to be filed separately).
Includes Stable MIR.
Regarding https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/labels/relnotes, I guess I will manually open a https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/labels/relnotes-tracking-issue since this change affects everything (compiler, library, tools, docs, books, everyday language).

Don't keep the `external_traits` as shared mutable data between the
`DocContext` and `clean::Crate`. Instead, move the data over when necessary.
This allows us to get rid of a borrowck hack in the `DocVisitor`.

rustdoc: inherit parent's stability where applicable
It is currently not possible for a re-export to have a different stability (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/30827). Therefore the standard library uses a hack when moving items like `std::error::Error` or `std::net::IpAddr` into `core` by marking the containing module (`core::error` / `core::net`) as unstable or stable in a later version than the items the module contains.
Previously, rustdoc would always show the *stability as declared* for an item rather than the *stability as publicly reachable* (i.e. the features required to actually access the item), which could be confusing when viewing the docs. This PR changes it so that we show the stability of the first unstable parent or the most recently stabilized parent instead, to hopefully make things less confusing.

rustdoc: add header map to the table of contents
## Summary
Add header sections to the sidebar TOC.
### Preview

* http://notriddle.com/rustdoc-html-demo-9/toc/rust/std/index.html
* http://notriddle.com/rustdoc-html-demo-9/toc/rust-derive-builder/derive_builder/index.html
## Motivation
Some pages are very wordy, like these.
| crate | word count |
|--|--|
| [std::option](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/option/index.html) | 2,138
| [derive_builder](https://docs.rs/derive_builder/0.13.0/derive_builder/index.html) | 2,403
| [tracing](https://docs.rs/tracing/0.1.40/tracing/index.html) | 3,912
| [regex](https://docs.rs/regex/1.10.3/regex/index.html) | 8,412
This kind of very long document is more navigable with a table of contents, like Wikipedia's or the one [GitHub recently added](https://github.blog/changelog/2021-04-13-table-of-contents-support-in-markdown-files/) for READMEs.
In fact, the use case is so compelling, that it's been requested multiple times and implemented in an extension:
* https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/80858
* https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/28056
* https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/14475
* https://rust.extension.sh/#show-table-of-content
(Some of these issues ask for more than this, so don’t close them.)
It's also been implemented by hand in some crates, because the author really thought it was needed. Protip: for a more exhaustive list, run [`site:docs.rs table of contents`](https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=site%3Adocs.rs+table+of+contents&ia=web), though some of them are false positives.
* https://docs.rs/figment/0.10.14/figment/index.html#table-of-contents
* https://docs.rs/csv/1.3.0/csv/tutorial/index.html#table-of-contents
* https://docs.rs/axum/0.7.4/axum/response/index.html#table-of-contents
* https://docs.rs/regex-automata/0.4.5/regex_automata/index.html#table-of-contents
Unfortunately for these hand-built ToCs, because they're just part of the docs, there's no consistent way to turn them off if the reader doesn't want them. It's also more complicated to ensure they stay in sync with the docs they're supposed to describe, and they don't stay with you when you scroll like Wikipedia's [does now](https://uxdesign.cc/design-notes-on-the-2023-wikipedia-redesign-d6573b9af28d).
## Guide-level explanation
When writing docs for a top-level item, the first and second level of headers will be shown in an outline in the sidebar. In this context, "top level" means "not associated".
This means, if you're writing very long guides or explanations, and you want it to have a table of contents in the sidebar for its headings, the ideal place to attach it is usually the *module* or *crate*, because this page has fewer other things on it (and is the ideal place to describe "cross-cutting concerns" for its child items).
If you're reading documentation, and want to get rid of the table of contents, open the  Settings panel and checkmark "Hide table of contents."
## Reference-level explanation
Top-level items have an outline generated. This works for potentially-malformed header trees by pairing a header with the nearest header with a higher level. For example:
```markdown
## A
# B
# C
## D
## E
```
A, B, and C are all siblings, and D and E are children of C.
Rustdoc only presents two layers of tree, but it tracks up to the full depth of 6 while preparing it.
That means that these two doc comment both generate the same outline:
```rust
/// # First
/// ## Second
struct One;
/// ## First
/// ### Second
struct Two;
```
## Drawbacks
The biggest drawback is adding more stuff to the sidebar.
My crawl through docs.rs shows this to, surprisingly, be less of a problem than I thought. The manually-built tables of contents, and the pages with dozens of headers, usually seem to be modules or crates, not types (where extreme scrolling would become a problem, since they already have methods to deal with).
The best example of a type with many headers is [vec::Vec](https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.75.0/std/vec/struct.Vec.html), which still only has five headers, not dozens like [axum::extract](https://docs.rs/axum/0.7.4/axum/extract/index.html).
## Rationale and alternatives
### Why in the existing sidebar?
The method links and the top-doc header links have more in common with each other than either of them do with the "In [parent module]" links, and should go together.
### Why limited to two levels?
The sidebar is pretty narrow, and I don't want too much space used by indentation. Making the sidebar wider, while it has some upsides, also takes up more space on middling-sized screens or tiled WMs.
### Why not line wrap?
That behaves strangely when resizing.
## Prior art
### Doc generators that have TOC for headers
https://hexdocs.pm/phoenix/Phoenix.Controller.html is very close, in the sense that it also has header sections directly alongside functions and types.
Another example, referenced as part of the [early sidebar discussion](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/37856) that added methods, Ruby will show a table of contents in the sidebar (for example, on the [ARGF](https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/master/ARGF.html) class). According to their changelog, [they added it in 2013](https://github.com/ruby/rdoc/blob/06137bde8ccc48cd502bc28178bcd8f2dfe37624/History.rdoc#400--2013-02-24-).
Haskell seems to mix text and functions even more freely than Elixir. For example, this [Naming conventions](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.19.0.0/docs/Control-Monad.html#g:3) is plain text, and is immediately followed by functions. And the [Pandoc top level](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/pandoc-3.1.11.1/docs/Text-Pandoc.html) has items split up by function, rather than by kind. Their TOC matches exactly with the contents of the page.
### Doc generators that don't have header TOC, but still have headers
Elm, interestingly enough, seems to have the same setup that Rust used to have: sibling navigation between modules, and no index within a single page. [They keep Haskell's habit of named sections with machine-generated type signatures](https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/elm/browser/latest/Browser-Dom), though.
[PHP](https://www.php.net/manual/en/book.datetime.php), like elm, also has a right-hand sidebar with sibling navigation. However, PHP has a single page for a single method, unlike Rust's page for an entire "class." So even though these pages have headers, it's never more than ten at most. And when they have guides, those guides are also multi-page.
## Unresolved questions
* Writing recommendations for anyone who wants to take advantage of this.
* Right now, it does not line wrap. That might be a bad idea: a lot of these are getting truncated.
* Split sidebars, which I [tried implementing](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/266220-t-rustdoc/topic/Table.20of.20contents), are not required. The TOC can be turned off, if it's really a problem. Implemented in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120818, but needs more, separate, discussion.
## Future possibilities
I would like to do a better job of distinguishing global navigation from local navigation. Rustdoc has a pretty reasonable information architecture, if only we did a better job of communicating it.
This PR aims, mostly, to help doc authors help their users by writing docs that can be more effectively skimmed. But it doesn't do anything to make it easier to tell the TOC and the Module Nav apart.

Stop using `ty::GenericPredicates` for non-predicates_of queries
`GenericPredicates` is a struct of several parts: A list of of an item's own predicates, and a parent def id (and some effects related stuff, but ignore that since it's kinda irrelevant). When instantiating these generic predicates, it calls `predicates_of` on the parent and instantiates its predicates, and appends the item's own instantiated predicates too:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/acb4e8b6251f1d8da36f08e7a70fa23fc581839e/compiler/rustc_middle/src/ty/generics.rs#L407-L413
Notice how this should result in a recursive set of calls to `predicates_of`... However, `GenericPredicates` is *also* misused by a bunch of *other* queries as a convenient way of passing around a list of predicates. For these queries, we don't ever set the parent def id of the `GenericPredicates`, but if we did, then this would be very easy to mistakenly call `predicates_of` instead of some other intended parent query.
Given that footgun, and the fact that we don't ever even *use* the parent def id in the `GenericPredicates` returned from queries like `explicit_super_predicates_of`, It really has no benefit over just returning `&'tcx [(Clause<'tcx>, Span)]`.
This PR additionally opts to wrap the results of `EarlyBinder`, as we've tended to use that in the return type of these kinds of queries to properly convey that the user has params to deal with, and it also gives a convenient way of iterating over a slice of things after instantiating.

This commit adds the headers for the top level documentation to
rustdoc's existing table of contents, along with associated items.
It only show two levels of headers. Going further would require the
sidebar to be wider, and that seems unnecessary (the crates that
have manually-built TOCs usually don't need deeply nested headers).

Shrink `TyKind::FnPtr`.
By splitting the `FnSig` within `TyKind::FnPtr` into `FnSigTys` and `FnHeader`, which can be packed more efficiently. This reduces the size of the hot `TyKind` type from 32 bytes to 24 bytes on 64-bit platforms. This reduces peak memory usage by a few percent on some benchmarks. It also reduces cache misses and page faults similarly, though this doesn't translate to clear cycles or wall-time improvements on CI.

It was barely used, and the places that used it are actually clearer
without it since they were often undoing some of its work. This also
avoids an unnecessary clone of the receiver type and removes a layer of
logical indirection in the code.

Rustdoc often has to special-case `Self` because it is, well, a special
type of generic parameter (although it also behaves as an alias in
concrete impls). Instead of spreading this special-casing throughout the
code base, create a new variant of the `clean::Type` enum that is for
`Self` types.
This is a refactoring that has almost no impact on rustdoc's behavior,
except that `&Self`, `(Self,)`, `&[Self]`, and other similar occurrences
of `Self` no longer link to the wrapping type (reference primitive,
tuple primitive, etc.) as regular generics do. I felt this made more
sense since users would expect `Self` to link to the containing trait or
aliased type (though those are usually expanded), not the primitive that
is wrapping it. For an example of the change, see the docs for
`std::alloc::Allocator::by_ref`.
|
|
`SelfTy` makes it sound like it is literally the `Self` type, whereas in
fact it may be `&Self` or other types. Plus, I want to use the name
`SelfTy` for a new variant of `clean::Type`. Having both causes
resolution conflicts or at least confusion.

rustdoc: Cleanup `CacheBuilder` code for building search index
This code was very convoluted and hard to reason about. It is now (I hope) much
clearer and more suitable for both future enhancements and future cleanups.
I'm doing this as a precursor, with no UI changes, to changing rustdoc to
[ignore blanket impls][1] in type-based search.

This is a very large commit since a lot needs to be changed in order to
make the tests pass. The salient changes are:
- `ConstArgKind` gets a new `Path` variant, and all const params are now
represented using it. Non-param paths still use `ConstArgKind::Anon`
to prevent this change from getting too large, but they will soon use
the `Path` variant too.
- `ConstArg` gets a distinct `hir_id` field and its own variant in
`hir::Node`. This affected many parts of the compiler that expected
the parent of an `AnonConst` to be the containing context (e.g., an
array repeat expression). They have been changed to check the
"grandparent" where necessary.
- Some `ast::AnonConst`s now have their `DefId`s created in
rustc_ast_lowering rather than `DefCollector`. This is because in some
cases they will end up becoming a `ConstArgKind::Path` instead, which
has no `DefId`. We have to solve this in a hacky way where we guess
whether the `AnonConst` could end up as a path const since we can't
know for sure until after name resolution (`N` could refer to a free
const or a nullary struct). If it has no chance as being a const
param, then we create a `DefId` in `DefCollector` -- otherwise we
decide during ast_lowering. This will have to be updated once all path
consts use `ConstArgKind::Path`.
- We explicitly use `ConstArgHasType` for array lengths, rather than
implicitly relying on anon const type feeding -- this is due to the
addition of `ConstArgKind::Path`.
- Some tests have their outputs changed, but the changes are for the
most part minor (including removing duplicate or almost-duplicate
errors). One test now ICEs, but it is for an incomplete, unstable
feature and is now tracked at #127009.
|
|
Now everything that actually affects the type system (i.e., excluding
const blocks, enum variant discriminants, etc.) *should* be using
`ConstArg`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will allow lowering const params to a dedicated enum variant, rather
than to an `AnonConst` that is later examined during `ty` lowering.
