* The phrasing "only does something for" made sense back when this
diagnostic was a (hard) warning. Now however, it's simply a hard
error and thus completely rules out "doing something".
* The primary message was way too long
* The new wording more closely mirrors the wording we use for applying
other bound modifiers (like `const` and `async`) to incompatible
traits.
* "all other traits are not bound by default" is no longer accurate
under Sized Hierarchy. E.g., traits and assoc tys are (currently)
bounded by `MetaSized` by default but can't be relaxed using
`?MetaSized` (instead, you relax it by adding `PointeeSized`).
* I've decided against adding any diagnositic notes or suggestions
for now like "trait `Trait` can't be relaxed as it's not bound by
default" which would be incorrect for `MetaSized` and assoc tys
as mentioned above) or "consider changing `?MetaSized` to
`PointeeSized`" as the Sized Hierarchy impl is still WIP)
As a temporary measure while a proper fix for
`tests/ui/sized-hierarchy/incomplete-inference-issue-143992.rs`
is implemented, make `MetaSized` obligations always hold. In effect,
temporarily reverting the `sized_hierarchy` feature. This is a small
change that can be backported.
As a performance optimization, skip elaborating the supertraits of
`Sized`, and if a `MetaSized` obligation is being checked, then look for
a `Sized` predicate in the parameter environment. This makes the
`ParamEnv` smaller which should improve compiler performance as it avoids
all the iteration over the larger `ParamEnv`.
This test case is a reduction from the `hwc` crate on GitHub, following a
crater run. It passes with the next solver but fails on the current
solver due to a known limitation of the current solver. It starts fails
on the current solver with the `sized_hierarchy` changes because `?Sized`
is now a proper bound.
When printing impl headers in a diagnostic, the compiler has to account
for `?Sized` implying `MetaSized` and new `MetaSized` and `PointeeSized`
bounds.
Opting-out of `Sized` with `?Sized` is now equivalent to adding a
`MetaSized` bound, and adding a `MetaSized` or `PointeeSized` bound
is equivalent to removing the default `Sized` bound - this commit
implements this change in `rustc_hir_analysis::hir_ty_lowering`.
`MetaSized` is also added as a supertrait of all traits, as this is
necessary to preserve backwards compatibility.
Unfortunately, non-global where clauses being preferred over item bounds
(where `PointeeSized` bounds would be proven) - which can result in
errors when a `PointeeSized` supertrait/bound/predicate is added to some
items. Rather than `PointeeSized` being a bound on everything, it can
be the absence of a bound on everything, as `?Sized` was.
Expand the automatic implementation of `MetaSized` and `PointeeSized` so
that it is also implemented on non-`Sized` types, just not `ty::Foreign`
(extern type).
