Clairify `ast::PatKind::Struct` presese of `..` by using an enum instead of a bool
The bool is mainly used for when a `..` is present, but it is also set on recovery to avoid errors. The doc comment not describes both of these cases.
See cee794ee98/compiler/rustc_parse/src/parser/pat.rs (L890-L897) for the only place this is constructed.

Introduce support for `async gen` blocks
I'm delighted to demonstrate that `async gen` block are not very difficult to support. They're simply coroutines that yield `Poll<Option<T>>` and return `()`.
**This PR is WIP and in draft mode for now** -- I'm mostly putting it up to show folks that it's possible. This PR needs a lang-team experiment associated with it or possible an RFC, since I don't think it falls under the jurisdiction of the `gen` RFC that was recently authored by oli (https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3513, https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/117078).
### Technical note on the pre-generator-transform yield type:
The reason that the underlying coroutines yield `Poll<Option<T>>` and not `Poll<T>` (which would make more sense, IMO, for the pre-transformed coroutine), is because the `TransformVisitor` that is used to turn coroutines into built-in state machine functions would have to destructure and reconstruct the latter into the former, which requires at least inserting a new basic block (for a `switchInt` terminator, to match on the `Poll` discriminant).
This does mean that the desugaring (at the `rustc_ast_lowering` level) of `async gen` blocks is a bit more involved. However, since we already need to intercept both `.await` and `yield` operators, I don't consider it much of a technical burden.

never_patterns: Parse match arms with no body
Never patterns are meant to signal unreachable cases, and thus don't take bodies:
```rust
let ptr: *const Option<!> = ...;
match *ptr {
None => { foo(); }
Some(!),
}
```
This PR makes rustc accept the above, and enforces that an arm has a body xor is a never pattern. This affects parsing of match arms even with the feature off, so this is delicate. (Plus this is my first non-trivial change to the parser).
~~The last commit is optional; it introduces a bit of churn to allow the new suggestions to be machine-applicable. There may be a better solution? I'm not sure.~~ EDIT: I removed that commit

If you do `derive(PartialEq)` on a packed struct, the output shown by
`-Zunpretty=expanded` includes expressions like this:
```
{ self.x } == { other.x }
```
This is invalid syntax. This doesn't break compilation, because the AST
nodes are constructed within the compiler. But it does mean anyone using
`-Zunpretty=expanded` output as a guide for hand-written impls could get
a nasty surprise.
This commit fixes things by instead using this form:
```
({ self.x }) == ({ other.x })
```
Remove `token::Lit` from `ast::MetaItemLit`.
Currently `ast::MetaItemLit` represents the literal kind twice. This PR removes that redundancy. Best reviewed one commit at a time.
r? `@petrochenkov`
This is required to distinguish between cooked and raw byte string
literals in an `ast::LitKind`, without referring to an adjacent
`token::Lit`. It's a prerequisite for the next commit.
There is code for converting `Attribute` (syntactic) to `MetaItem`
(semantic). There is also code for the reverse direction. The reverse
direction isn't really necessary; it's currently only used when
generating attributes, e.g. in `derive` code.
This commit adds some new functions for creating `Attributes`s directly,
without involving `MetaItem`s: `mk_attr_word`, `mk_attr_name_value_str`,
`mk_attr_nested_word`, and
`ExtCtxt::attr_{word,name_value_str,nested_word}`.
These new methods replace the old functions for creating `Attribute`s:
`mk_attr_inner`, `mk_attr_outer`, and `ExtCtxt::attribute`. Those
functions took `MetaItem`s as input, and relied on many other functions
that created `MetaItems`, which are also removed: `mk_name_value_item`,
`mk_list_item`, `mk_word_item`, `mk_nested_word_item`,
`{MetaItem,MetaItemKind,NestedMetaItem}::token_trees`,
`MetaItemKind::attr_args`, `MetaItemLit::{from_lit_kind,to_token}`,
`ExtCtxt::meta_word`.
Overall this cuts more than 100 lines of code and makes thing simpler.
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:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/102944#issuecomment-1277476773
In some places we use `Vec<Attribute>` and some places we use
`ThinVec<Attribute>` (a.k.a. `AttrVec`). This results in various points
where we have to convert between `Vec` and `ThinVec`.
This commit changes the places that use `Vec<Attribute>` to use
`AttrVec`. A lot of this is mechanical and boring, but there are
some interesting parts:
- It adds a few new methods to `ThinVec`.
- It implements `MapInPlace` for `ThinVec`, and introduces a macro to
avoid the repetition of this trait for `Vec`, `SmallVec`, and
`ThinVec`.
Overall, it makes the code a little nicer, and has little effect on
performance. But it is a precursor to removing
`rustc_data_structures::thin_vec::ThinVec` and replacing it with
`thin_vec::ThinVec`, which is implemented more efficiently.
All derive ops currently use match-destructuring to access fields. This
is reasonable for enums, but sub-optimal for structs. E.g.:
```
fn eq(&self, other: &Point) -> bool {
match *other {
Self { x: ref __self_1_0, y: ref __self_1_1 } =>
match *self {
Self { x: ref __self_0_0, y: ref __self_0_1 } =>
(*__self_0_0) == (*__self_1_0) &&
(*__self_0_1) == (*__self_1_1),
},
}
}
```
This commit changes derive ops on structs to use field access instead, e.g.:
```
fn eq(&self, other: &Point) -> bool {
self.x == other.x && self.y == other.y
}
```
This is faster to compile, results in smaller binaries, and is simpler to
generate. Unfortunately, we have to keep the old pattern generating code around
for `repr(packed)` structs because something like `&self.x` (which doesn't show
up in `PartialEq` ops, but does show up in `Debug` and `Hash` ops) isn't
allowed. But this commit at least changes those cases to use let-destructuring
instead of match-destructuring, e.g.:
```
fn hash<__H: ::core:#️⃣:Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H) -> () {
{
let Self(ref __self_0_0) = *self;
{ ::core:#️⃣:Hash::hash(&(*__self_0_0), state) }
}
}
```
There are some unnecessary blocks remaining in the generated code, but I
will fix them in a follow-up PR.
