a more general version of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/146080.
after a bit of hacking in [`fluent.rs`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/compiler/rustc_fluent_macro/src/fluent.rs), i discovered that i'm not the only one that is bad at following guidelines 😅. this pr lowercases the first letter of all the error messages in the codebase.
(i did not change things that are traditionally uppercased such as _MIR_, _ABI_ or _C_)
i think it's reasonable to run a `@bors try` so all the test suite is checked, as i cannot run some of the tests on my machine. i double checked (and replaced manually) all the old error messages, but better be safe than sorry.
in the future i will try to add a check in `x test tidy` that errors if an error message starts with an uppercase letter.
const-eval: full support for pointer fragments
This fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/const-eval/issues/72 and makes `swap_nonoverlapping` fully work in const-eval by enhancing per-byte provenance tracking with tracking of *which* of the bytes of the pointer this one is. Later, if we see all the same bytes in the exact same order, we can treat it like a whole pointer again without ever risking a leak of the data bytes (that encode the offset into the allocation). This lifts the limitation that was discussed quite a bit in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/137280.
For a concrete piece of code that used to fail and now works properly consider this example doing a byte-for-byte memcpy in const without using intrinsics:
```rust
use std::{mem::{self, MaybeUninit}, ptr};
type Byte = MaybeUninit<u8>;
const unsafe fn memcpy(dst: *mut Byte, src: *const Byte, n: usize) {
let mut i = 0;
while i < n {
*dst.add(i) = *src.add(i);
i += 1;
}
}
const _MEMCPY: () = unsafe {
let ptr = &42;
let mut ptr2 = ptr::null::<i32>();
// Copy from ptr to ptr2.
memcpy(&mut ptr2 as *mut _ as *mut _, &ptr as *const _ as *const _, mem::size_of::<&i32>());
assert!(*ptr2 == 42);
};
```
What makes this code tricky is that pointers are "opaque blobs" in const-eval, we cannot just let people look at the individual bytes since *we don't know what those bytes look like* -- that depends on the absolute address the pointed-to object will be placed at. The code above "breaks apart" a pointer into individual bytes, and then puts them back together in the same order elsewhere. This PR implements the logic to properly track how those individual bytes relate to the original pointer, and to recognize when they are in the right order again.
We still reject constants where the final value contains a not-fully-put-together pointer: I have no idea how one could construct an LLVM global where one byte is defined as "the 3rd byte of a pointer to that other global over there" -- and even if LLVM supports this somehow, we can leave implementing that to a future PR. It seems unlikely to me anyone would even want this, but who knows.^^
This also changes the behavior of Miri, by tracking the order of bytes with provenance and only considering a pointer to have valid provenance if all bytes are in the original order again. This is related to https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines/issues/558. It means one cannot implement XOR linked lists with strict provenance any more, which is however only of theoretical interest. Practically I am curious if anyone will show up with any code that Miri now complains about - that would be interesting data. Cc `@rust-lang/opsem`
Fix test intrinsic-raw_eq-const-bad for big-endian
The test fails on s390x and presumably other big-endian systems, due to print of raw values. To fix the tests remove the raw output values in the error note with normalize-stderr.

don't link to the nightly version of the Edition Guide in stable lints
As reported in rust-lang/rust#143557 for `rust_2024_incompatible_pat`, most future-Edition-incompatibility lints link to the nightly version of the Edition Guide; the lints were written before their respective Editions (and their guides) stabilized. But now that Rusts 2021 and 2024 are stable, these lints are emitted on stable versions of the compiler, where it makes more sense to present users with links that don't say "nightly" in them.
This does not change the link for `rust_2024_incompatible_pat`. That's handled in rust-lang/rust#144006.
Show the offset, length and memory of uninit read errors
r? ``@RalfJung``
I want to improve memory dumps in general. Not sure yet how to do so best within rust diagnostics, but in a perfect world I could generate a dummy in-memory file (that contains the rendered memory dump) that we then can then provide regular rustc `Span`s to. So we'd basically report normal diagnostics for them with squiggly lines and everything.
Make slice comparisons const
This needed a fix for `derive_const`, too, as it wasn't usable in libcore anymore as trait impls need const stability attributes. I think we can't use the same system as normal trait impls while `const_trait_impl` is still unstable.

const-eval error: always say in which item the error occurred
I don't see why "is this generic" should make a difference. It may be reasonable to key this on whether the error occurs in a `const fn` that was invoked by a const (making it non-obvious which constant it is) vs inside the body of the const.

Make two transmute-related MIR lints into HIR lint
Make `PTR_TO_INTEGER_TRANSMUTE_IN_CONSTS` (rust-lang/rust#130540) and `UNNECESSARY_TRANSMUTES` (rust-lang/rust#136083) into "normal" HIR-based lints.
Funny enough this came up in the review of the latter (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/136083#issuecomment-2614301413), but I guess it just was overlooked.
But anywyas, there's no reason for these to be MIR lints; in fact, it makes the suggestions for them a bit more complicated than necessary.
Note that there's probably a few more simplifications and improvements to be done here. Follow-ups can be done in a separate PR, especially if they're about the messaging and suggestions themselves, which I didn't write.
Add some track_caller info to precondition panics
Currently, when you encounter a precondition check, you'll always get the caller location of the implementation of the precondition checks. But with this PR, you'll be told the location of the invalid call. Which is useful.
I thought of this while looking at https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/129642#issuecomment-2311703898.
The changes to `tests/ui/const*` happen because the const-eval interpreter skips `#[track_caller]` frames in its backtraces.
The perf implications of this are:
* Increased debug binary sizes. The caller_location implementation requires that the additional data we want to display here be stored in const allocations, which are deduplicated but not across crates. There is no impact on optimized build sizes. The panic path and the caller location data get optimized out.
* The compile time hit to opt-incr-patched bitmaps happens because the patch changes the line number of some function calls with precondition checks, causing us to go from 0 dirty CGUs to 1 dirty CGU.
* The other compile time hits are marginal but real, and due to doing a handful of new queries. Adding more useful data isn't completely free.
Don't allow flattened format_args in const.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/139136
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/139621
We allow `format_args!("a")` in const, but don't allow any format_args with arguments in const, such as `format_args!("{}", arg)`.
However, we accidentally allow `format_args!("hello {}", "world")` in const, as it gets flattened to `format_args!("hello world")`.
This also applies to panic in const.
This wasn't supposed to happen. I added protection against this in the format args flattening code, ~~but I accidentally marked a function as const that shouldn't have been const~~ but this was removed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/135139.
This is a breaking change. The crater found no breakage, however.
This breaks things like:
```rust
const _: () = if false { panic!("a {}", "a") };
```
and
```rust
const F: std::fmt::Arguments<'static> = format_args!("a {}", "a");
```
