`hir::Lifetime::ident` currently sometimes uses `kw::Empty` for elided
lifetimes and sometimes uses `kw::UnderscoreLifetime`, and the
distinction is used when creating some error suggestions, e.g. in
`Lifetime::suggestion` and `ImplicitLifetimeFinder::visit_ty`. I found
this *really* confusing, and it took me a while to understand what was
going on.
This commit replaces all uses of `kw::Empty` in `hir::Lifetime::ident`
with `kw::UnderscoreLifetime`. It adds a new field
`hir::Lifetime::is_path_anon` that mostly replaces the old
empty/underscore distinction and makes things much clearer.
Some other notable changes:
- Adds a big comment to `Lifetime` talking about permissable field
values.
- Adds some assertions in `new_named_lifetime` about what ident values
are permissible for the different `LifetimeRes` values.
- Adds a `Lifetime::new` constructor that does some checking to make
sure the `is_elided` and `is_anonymous` states are valid.
- `add_static_impl_trait_suggestion` now looks at `Lifetime::res`
instead of the ident when creating the suggestion. This is the one
case where `is_path_anon` doesn't replace the old empty/underscore
distinction.
- A couple of minor pretty-printing improvements.
When encountering a resolve E0575 error for an associated method (when a type was expected), see if it could have been an intended return type notation bound.
```

help: you might have meant to use the return type notation syntax

`rustc_span::symbol` defines some things that are re-exported from
`rustc_span`, such as `Symbol` and `sym`. But it doesn't re-export some
closely related things such as `Ident` and `kw`. So you can do `use
rustc_span::{Symbol, sym}` but you have to do `use
rustc_span::symbol::{Ident, kw}`, which is inconsistent for no good
reason.
This commit re-exports `Ident`, `kw`, and `MacroRulesNormalizedIdent`,
and changes many `rustc_span::symbol::` qualifiers in `compiler/` to
`rustc_span::`. This is a 200+ net line of code reduction, mostly
because many files with two `use rustc_span` items can be reduced to
one.
hir: Stop keeping prefixes for most of `use` list stems
And make sure all other imports have non-empty resolution lists.

Currently a `{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage` can be created from any type that
impls `Into<String>`. That includes `&str`, `String`, and `Cow<'static,
str>`, which are reasonable. It also includes `&String`, which is pretty
weird, and results in many places making unnecessary allocations for
patterns like this:
```
self.fatal(&format!(...))
```
This creates a string with `format!`, takes a reference, passes the
reference to `fatal`, which does an `into()`, which clones the
reference, doing a second allocation. Two allocations for a single
string, bleh.
This commit changes the `From` impls so that you can only create a
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage` from `&str`, `String`, or `Cow<'static,
str>`. This requires changing all the places that currently create one
from a `&String`. Most of these are of the `&format!(...)` form
described above; each one removes an unnecessary static `&`, plus an
allocation when executed. There are also a few places where the existing
use of `&String` was more reasonable; these now just use `clone()` at
the call site.
As well as making the code nicer and more efficient, this is a step
towards possibly using `Cow<'static, str>` in
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage::{Str,Eager}`. That would require changing
the `From<&'a str>` impls to `From<&'static str>`, which is doable, but
I'm not yet sure if it's worthwhile.
This adds a new variant `ImplTraitContext::FeatureGated`, so we can
generalize the help for `return_position_impl_trait_in_trait` to also
work for `impl_trait_in_fn_trait_return`.
