Some `tests/ui/` housekeeping, to trim down number of tests directly under `tests/ui/`. Part of rust-lang/rust#133895.

Start moving wf checking away from HIR
I'm trying to only access the HIR in the error path. My hope is that once we move significant portions of wfcheck off HIR that incremental will be able to cache wfcheck queries significantly better.
I think I am reaching a blocker because we normally need to provide good spans to `ObligationCause`, so that the trait solver can report good errors. In some cases I have been able to use bad spans and improve them depending on the `ObligationCauseCode` (by loading HIR in the case where we actually want to error). To scale that further we'll likely need to remove spans from the `ObligationCause` entirely (leaving it to some variants of `ObligationCauseCode` to have a span when they can't recompute the information later). Unsure this is the right approach, but we've already been using it. I will create an MCP about it, but that should not affect this PR, which is fairly limited in where it does those kind of tricks.
Especially b862d8828e is interesting here, because I think it improves spans in all cases
This centralizes the placeholder type error reporting in one location, but it also exposes the granularity at which we convert things from hir to ty more. E.g. previously infer types in where bounds were errored together with the function signature, but now they are independent.
Method errors have an extra check that force trim paths whenever the
normal string is longer than 10 characters, which can be quite unhelpful
when multiple items have the same name (for example an `Error`).
A user reported this force trimming as being quite unhelpful when they
had a method error where the precise path of the `Error` mattered.
The code uses `tcx.short_string` already to get the normal path, which
tries to be clever around trimming paths if necessary, so there is no
reason for this extra force trimming.
HIR ty lowering: Clean up & refactor the lowering of type-relative paths
While rebasing #126651 I realized that HIR ty lowering could benefit from some *spring cleaning* now that it's been extended to handle RTN and mGCA paths.
More seriously, similar to my merged PR #118668 which unified the handling of all *associated item constraints* (assoc ty, const (ACE) & fn (RTN)), this PR (commit 695fcf517d) partially[^1] deduplicates the resolution code for all *type-relative paths* (assoc ty, const (mGCA) & fn (RTN)).
**Why**? DRY'ing that part of the code means PR #126651 will automatically support RTN paths like `Ty::AssocTy::assoc_fn(..)` and it also implies shared diagnostic code and thus better diagnostics for RTN.
---
The other commits represent cleanups, renamings, moves. More notably, I've renamed path lowering methods to be a lot more descriptive, so ones lowering `QPath(Resolved)` paths now have `_resolved_` in their name and ones lowering `QPath(TypeRelative)` paths now have `_type_relative_` in their name. This should make it stupidly obvious what their purpose is.

Best reviewed commit by commit. The changes are close to trivial but the diff might make it look hairier.
r? compiler-errors
[^1]: Sadly, I couldn't unify as much compared to the other PR without introducing unnecessary `unreachable!()`s or rendering the code otherwise illegible with flags and micro helper traits.
Do not emit help when shorthand from macro when suggest `?` or `expect`
Fixes#140659
I didn't fully minimize the original bug, but I found a similar test case, and they have perhaps the same root cause. For the bug mentioned in #140659 , I also tested it locally and passed it.

Improve diagnostics for pointer arithmetic += and -= (fixes#137391)
**Description**:
This PR improves the diagnostic message for cases where a binary assignment operation like `ptr += offset` or `ptr -= offset` is attempted on `*mut T`. These operations are not allowed, and the compiler previously suggested calling `.add()` or `.wrapping_add()`, which is misleading if not assigned.
This PR updates the diagnostics to suggest assigning the result of `.wrapping_add()` or `.wrapping_sub()` back to the pointer, e.g.:
**Examples**
For this code
```rust
let mut arr = [0u8; 10];
let mut ptr = arr.as_mut_ptr();
ptr += 2;
```
it will say:
```rust
10 | ptr += 2;
| ---^^^^^
| |
| cannot use `+=` on type `*mut u8`
|
help: consider replacing `ptr += offset` with `ptr = ptr.wrapping_add(offset)` or `ptr.add(offset)`
|
10 - ptr += 2;
10 + ptr = ptr.wrapping_add(2);
```

Suppress missing field error when autoderef bottoms out in infer
I see this error repeatedly when doing refactorings, and it's pretty misleading b/c it's not the source of the error.
Make the compiler suggest actual paths instead of visible paths if the visible paths are through any doc hidden path.
close#127011
Currently, when emitting a diagnostic about a valid trait, the compiler suggestes using visible paths of the trait even if they are through a doc hidden path. This PR updates the compiler to suggest actual paths in these cases.
Currently (PatKind::Wild` (i.e. `_`) gets turned by
`lower_fn_params_to_names` into an empty identifier, which means it is
printed incorrectly by HIR pretty printing.
And likewise for `lower_fn_params_to_names`, which affects some error
messages.
This commit fixes them. This requires a slight tweak in a couple of
places to continue using parameter numbers in some error messages. And
it improves the output of `tests/ui/typeck/cyclic_type_ice.rs`:
`/* _ */` is a better suggestion than `/* */`.
