add `TypingMode::Borrowck`
Shares the first commit with #138499, doesn't really matter which PR to land first 😊😁
Introduces `TypingMode::Borrowck` which unlike `TypingMode::Analysis`, uses the hidden type computed by HIR typeck as the initial value of opaques instead of an unconstrained infer var. This is a part of https://github.com/rust-lang/types-team/issues/129.
Using this new `TypingMode` is unfortunately a breaking change for now, see tests/ui/impl-trait/non-defining-uses/as-projection-term.rs. Using an inference variable as the initial value results in non-defining uses in the defining scope. We therefore only enable it if with `-Znext-solver=globally` or `-Ztyping-mode-borrowck`
To do that the PR contains the following changes:
- `TypeckResults::concrete_opaque_type` are already mapped to the definition of the opaque type
- writeback now checks that the non-lifetime parameters of the opaque are universal
- for this, `fn check_opaque_type_parameter_valid` is moved from `rustc_borrowck` to `rustc_trait_selection`
- we add a new `query type_of_opaque_hir_typeck` which, using the same visitors as MIR typeck, attempts to merge the hidden types from HIR typeck from all defining scopes
- done by adding a `DefiningScopeKind` flag to toggle between using borrowck and HIR typeck
- the visitors stop checking that the MIR type matches the HIR type. This is trivial as the HIR type are now used as the initial hidden types of the opaque. This check is useful as a safeguard when not using `TypingMode::Borrowck`, but adding it to the new structure is annoying and it's not soundness critical, so I intend to not add it back.
- add a `TypingMode::Borrowck` which behaves just like `TypingMode::Analysis` except when normalizing opaque types
- it uses `type_of_opaque_hir_typeck(opaque)` as the initial value after replacing its regions with new inference vars
- it uses structural lookup in the new solver

Initial support for auto traits with default bounds
This PR is part of ["MCP: Low level components for async drop"](https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/727)
Tracking issue: #138781
Summary: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120706#issuecomment-1934006762
### Intro
Sometimes we want to use type system to express specific behavior and provide safety guarantees. This behavior can be specified by various "marker" traits. For example, we use `Send` and `Sync` to keep track of which types are thread safe. As the language develops, there are more problems that could be solved by adding new marker traits:
- to forbid types with an async destructor to be dropped in a synchronous context a trait like `SyncDrop` could be used [Async destructors, async genericity and completion futures](https://sabrinajewson.org/blog/async-drop).
- to support [scoped tasks](https://without.boats/blog/the-scoped-task-trilemma/) or in a more general sense to provide a [destruction guarantee](https://zetanumbers.github.io/book/myosotis.html) there is a desire among some users to see a `Leak` (or `Forget`) trait.
- Withoutboats in his [post](https://without.boats/blog/changing-the-rules-of-rust/) reflected on the use of `Move` trait instead of a `Pin`.
All the traits proposed above are supposed to be auto traits implemented for most types, and usually implemented automatically by compiler.
For backward compatibility these traits have to be added implicitly to all bound lists in old code (see below). Adding new default bounds involves many difficulties: many standard library interfaces may need to opt out of those default bounds, and therefore be infected with confusing `?Trait` syntax, migration to a new edition may contain backward compatibility holes, supporting new traits in the compiler can be quite difficult and so forth. Anyway, it's hard to evaluate the complexity until we try the system on a practice.
In this PR we introduce new optional lang items for traits that are added to all bound lists by default, similarly to existing `Sized`. The examples of such traits could be `Leak`, `Move`, `SyncDrop` or something else, it doesn't matter much right now (further I will call them `DefaultAutoTrait`'s). We want to land this change into rustc under an option, so it becomes available in bootstrap compiler. Then we'll be able to do standard library experiments with the aforementioned traits without adding hundreds of `#[cfg(not(bootstrap))]`s. Based on the experiments, we can come up with some scheme for the next edition, in which such bounds are added in a more targeted way, and not just everywhere.
Most of the implementation is basically a refactoring that replaces hardcoded uses of `Sized` with iterating over a list of traits including both `Sized` and the new traits when `-Zexperimental-default-bounds` is enabled (or just `Sized` as before, if the option is not enabled).
### Default bounds for old editions
All existing types, including generic parameters, are considered `Leak`/`Move`/`SyncDrop` and can be forgotten, moved or destroyed in generic contexts without specifying any bounds. New types that cannot be, for example, forgotten and do not implement `Leak` can be added at some point, and they should not be usable in such generic contexts in existing code.
To both maintain this property and keep backward compatibility with existing code, the new traits should be added as default bounds _everywhere_ in previous editions. Besides the implicit `Sized` bound contexts that includes supertrait lists and trait lists in trait objects (`dyn Trait1 + ... + TraitN`). Compiler should also generate implicit `DefaultAutoTrait` implementations for foreign types (`extern { type Foo; }`) because they are also currently usable in generic contexts without any bounds.
#### Supertraits
Adding the new traits as supertraits to all existing traits is potentially necessary, because, for example, using a `Self` param in a trait's associated item may be a breaking change otherwise:
```rust
trait Foo: Sized {
fn new() -> Option<Self>; // ERROR: `Option` requires `DefaultAutoTrait`, but `Self` is not `DefaultAutoTrait`
}
// desugared `Option`
enum Option<T: DefaultAutoTrait + Sized> {
Some(T),
None,
}
```
However, default supertraits can significantly affect compiler performance. For example, if we know that `T: Trait`, the compiler would deduce that `T: DefaultAutoTrait`. It also implies proving `F: DefaultAutoTrait` for each field `F` of type `T` until an explicit impl is be provided.
If the standard library is not modified, then even traits like `Copy` or `Send` would get these supertraits.
In this PR for optimization purposes instead of adding default supertraits, bounds are added to the associated items:
```rust
// Default bounds are generated in the following way:
trait Trait {
fn foo(&self) where Self: DefaultAutoTrait {}
}
// instead of this:
trait Trait: DefaultAutoTrait {
fn foo(&self) {}
}
```
It is not always possible to do this optimization because of backward compatibility:
```rust
pub trait Trait<Rhs = Self> {}
pub trait Trait1 : Trait {} // ERROR: `Rhs` requires `DefaultAutoTrait`, but `Self` is not `DefaultAutoTrait`
```
or
```rust
trait Trait {
type Type where Self: Sized;
}
trait Trait2<T> : Trait<Type = T> {} // ERROR: `???` requires `DefaultAutoTrait`, but `Self` is not `DefaultAutoTrait`
```
Therefore, `DefaultAutoTrait`'s are still being added to supertraits if the `Self` params or type bindings were found in the trait header.
#### Trait objects
Trait objects requires explicit `+ Trait` bound to implement corresponding trait which is not backward compatible:
```rust
fn use_trait_object(x: Box<dyn Trait>) {
foo(x) // ERROR: `foo` requires `DefaultAutoTrait`, but `dyn Trait` is not `DefaultAutoTrait`
}
// implicit T: DefaultAutoTrait here
fn foo<T>(_: T) {}
```
So, for a trait object `dyn Trait` we should add an implicit bound `dyn Trait + DefaultAutoTrait` to make it usable, and allow relaxing it with a question mark syntax `dyn Trait + ?DefaultAutoTrait` when it's not necessary.
#### Foreign types
If compiler doesn't generate auto trait implementations for a foreign type, then it's a breaking change if the default bounds are added everywhere else:
```rust
// implicit T: DefaultAutoTrait here
fn foo<T: ?Sized>(_: &T) {}
extern "C" {
type ExternTy;
}
fn forward_extern_ty(x: &ExternTy) {
foo(x); // ERROR: `foo` requires `DefaultAutoTrait`, but `ExternTy` is not `DefaultAutoTrait`
}
```
We'll have to enable implicit `DefaultAutoTrait` implementations for foreign types at least for previous editions:
```rust
// implicit T: DefaultAutoTrait here
fn foo<T: ?Sized>(_: &T) {}
extern "C" {
type ExternTy;
}
impl DefaultAutoTrait for ExternTy {} // implicit impl
fn forward_extern_ty(x: &ExternTy) {
foo(x); // OK
}
```
### Unresolved questions
New default bounds affect all existing Rust code complicating an already complex type system.
- Proving an auto trait predicate requires recursively traversing the type and proving the predicate for it's fields. This leads to a significant performance regression. Measurements for the stage 2 compiler build show up to 3x regression.
- We hope that fast path optimizations for well known traits could mitigate such regressions at least partially.
- New default bounds trigger some compiler bugs in both old and new trait solver.
- With new default bounds we encounter some trait solver cycle errors that break existing code.
- We hope that these cases are bugs that can be addressed in the new trait solver.
Also migration to a new edition could be quite ugly and enormous, but that's actually what we want to solve. For other issues there's a chance that they could be solved by a new solver.
Skip suggest impl or dyn when poly trait is not a real trait
Fixes#139174
When `poly_trait_ref` is not a real trait, we should stop suggesting `impl` and `dyn` to avoid false positives. 3 cases were added to the ui test.
0b45675cfc/compiler/rustc_hir_analysis/src/hir_ty_lowering/lint.rs (L88-L93)
In the first commit, I submitted the test and passed it. In the second commit, I modified the code and we can see the changes in the test.

Prefer built-in sized impls (and only sized impls) for rigid types always
This PR changes the confirmation of `Sized` obligations to unconditionally prefer the built-in impl, even if it has nested obligations. This also changes all other built-in impls (namely, `Copy`/`Clone`/`DiscriminantKind`/`Pointee`) to *not* prefer built-in impls over param-env impls. This aligns the old solver with the behavior of the new solver.
---
In the old solver, we register many builtin candidates with the `BuiltinCandidate { has_nested: bool }` candidate kind. The precedence this candidate takes over other candidates is based on the `has_nested` field. We only prefer builtin impls over param-env candidates if `has_nested` is `false`
2b4694a698/compiler/rustc_trait_selection/src/traits/select/mod.rs (L1804-L1866)
Preferring param-env candidates when the builtin candidate has nested obligations *still* ends up leading to detrimental inference guidance, like:
```rust
fn hello<T>() where (T,): Sized {
let x: (_,) = Default::default();
// ^^ The `Sized` obligation on the variable infers `_ = T`.
let x: (i32,) = x;
// We error here, both a type mismatch and also b/c `T: Default` doesn't hold.
}
```
Therefore this PR adjusts the candidate precedence of `Sized` obligations by making them a distinct candidate kind and unconditionally preferring them over all other candidate kinds.
Special-casing `Sized` this way is necessary as there are a lot of traits with a `Sized` super-trait bound, so a `&'a str: From<T>` where-bound results in an elaborated `&'a str: Sized` bound. People tend to not add explicit where-clauses which overlap with builtin impls, so this tends to not be an issue for other traits.
We don't know of any tests/crates which need preference for other builtin traits. As this causes builtin impls to diverge from user-written impls we would like to minimize the affected traits. Otherwise e.g. moving impls for tuples to std by using variadic generics would be a breaking change. For other builtin impls it's also easier for the preference of builtin impls over where-bounds to result in issues.
---
There are two ways preferring builtin impls over where-bounds can be incorrect and undesirable:
- applying the builtin impl results in undesirable region constraints. E.g. if only `MyType<'static>` implements `Copy` then a goal like `(MyType<'a>,): Copy` would require `'a == 'static` so we must not prefer it over a `(MyType<'a>,): Copy` where-bound
- this is mostly not an issue for `Sized` as all `Sized` impls are builtin and don't add any region constraints not already required for the type to be well-formed
- however, even with `Sized` this is still an issue if a nested goal also gets proven via a where-bound: [playground](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2024&gist=30377da5b8a88f654884ab4ebc72f52b)
- if the builtin impl has associated types, we should not prefer it over where-bounds when normalizing that associated type. This can result in normalization adding more region constraints than just proving trait bounds. https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/133044
- not an issue for `Sized` as it doesn't have associated types.

Do not register `Self: AutoTrait` when confirming auto trait (in old solver)
Every built-in auto impl for a trait goal like `Ty: Auto` immediately registers another obligation of `Ty: Auto` as one of its nested obligations, leading to us stressing the cycle detection machinery a lot more than we need to. This is because all traits have a `Self: Trait` predicate.
To fix this, remove the call to `impl_or_trait_obligations` in `vtable_auto_impl`, since auto traits do not have where clauses.

change definitely unproductive cycles to error
builds on top of #136824 by adding a third variant to `PathKind` for paths which may change to be coinductive in the future but must not be so right now. Most notably, impl where-clauses of not yet coinductive traits.
With this, we can change cycles which are definitely unproductive to a proper error. This fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/trait-system-refactor-initiative/issues/114. This does not affect stable as we keep these cycles as ambiguous during coherence.

hir_analysis: skip self type of host effect preds in variances_of
Discovered as part of an implementation of rust-lang/rfcs#3729 - w/out this then when introducing const trait bounds: many more interesting tests change with different output, missing errors, new errors, etc related to this but they all depend on feature flags and are much more complex than this test.

trait_sel: resolve vars in host effects
In the standard library, the `Extend` impl for `Iterator` (specialised with `TrustedLen`) has a parameter which is constrained by a projection predicate. This projection predicate provides a value for an inference variable but - if the default bound is `const Sized` instead of `Sized` - host effect evaluation wasn't resolving variables first. Added a test that doesn't depend on a rust-lang/rfcs#3729 implementation.
Adding the extra resolve can the number of errors in some tests when they gain host effect predicates, but this is not unexpected as calls to `resolve_vars_if_possible` can cause more error tainting to happen.
Added to demonstrate change in output in following commit. Many more
interesting tests change with different output, missing errors, new

Don't mention `FromResidual` on bad `?`
Unless `try_trait_v2` is enabled, don't mention that `FromResidual` isn't implemented for a specific type when the implicit `From` conversion of a `?` fails. For the end user on stable, `?` might as well be a compiler intrinsic, so we remove that note to avoid further confusion and allowing other parts of the error to be more prominent.
```
