* Visibility was missing from impl items.
* Attributes and docs were missing from consts and types in impls.
* Const default values were missing from traits.
This unifies the code that handles associated items from impls and traits.
Properly handle reexport of foreign items.
Handles `pub use` of `extern { fn, static, type }`. Also plug in some more `match` arms where handling `extern type` is reasonable.
Fixed#46098.
impl Trait Lifetime Handling
This PR implements the updated strategy for handling `impl Trait` lifetimes, as described in [RFC 1951](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1951-expand-impl-trait.md) (cc #42183).
With this PR, the `impl Trait` desugaring works as follows:
```rust
fn foo<T, 'a, 'b, 'c>(...) -> impl Foo<'a, 'b> { ... }
// desugars to
exists type MyFoo<ParentT, 'parent_a, 'parent_b, 'parent_c, 'a, 'b>: Foo<'a, 'b>;
fn foo<T, 'a, 'b, 'c>(...) -> MyFoo<T, 'static, 'static, 'static, 'a, 'b> { ... }
```
All of the in-scope (parent) generics are listed as parent generics of the anonymous type, with parent regions being replaced by `'static`. Parent regions referenced in the `impl Trait` return type are duplicated into the anonymous type's generics and mapped appropriately.
One case came up that wasn't specified in the RFC: it's possible to write a return type that contains multiple regions, neither of which outlives the other. In that case, it's not clear what the required lifetime of the output type should be, so we generate an error.
There's one remaining FIXME in one of the tests: `-> impl Foo<'a, 'b> + 'c` should be able to outlive both `'a` and `'b`, but not `'c`. Currently, it can't outlive any of them. @nikomatsakis and I have discussed this, and there are some complex interactions here if we ever allow `impl<'a, 'b> SomeTrait for AnonType<'a, 'b> { ... }`, so the plan is to hold off on this until we've got a better idea of what the interactions are here.
cc #34511.
Fixes#44727.
After this change, impl Trait existentials are
desugared to a new `abstract type` definition
paired with a set of lifetimes to apply.
In-scope generics are included as parents of the
`abstract type` generics. Parent regions are
replaced with static, and parent regions
referenced in the `impl Trait` type are duplicated
at the end of the `abstract type`'s generics.
Replace hir::TyImplTrait with TyImplTraitUniversal and
TyImplTraitExistential.
Add an ImplTraitContext enum to rustc::hir::lowering to track the kind
and allowedness of an impl Trait.
Significantly alter lowering to thread ImplTraitContext and one other
boolean parameter described below throughought much of lowering.
The other parameter is for tracking if lowering a function is in a trait
impl, as there is not enough information to otherwise know this
information during lowering otherwise.
This change also removes the checks from ast_ty_to_ty for impl trait
allowedness as they are now all taking place in HIR lowering.
DefaultImpl is a highly confusing name for what we now call auto impls,
as in `impl Send for ..`. The name auto impl is not formally decided
but for sanity anything is better than `DefaultImpl` which refers
neither to `default impl` nor to `impl Default`.
Move Generics from MethodSig to TraitItem and ImplItem
As part of `rust-impl-period/WG-compiler-traits`, we want to "lift" `Generics` from `MethodSig` into `TraitItem` and `ImplItem`. This is in preparation for adding associated type generics. (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44265#issuecomment-331172238)
Currently this change is only made in the AST. In the future, it may also impact the HIR. (Still discussing)
To understand this PR, it's probably best to start from the changes to `ast.rs` and then work your way to the other files to understand the far reaching effects of this change.
r? @nikomatsakis
In `src/libstd/primitive_docs.rs`, a `#[doc(primitive = "unit")]`
section has sat long neglected. This patch teaches rustdoc to recognize
"unit", and steals its trait implementations away from the tuple page.
let rustdoc print the crate version into docs
This PR adds a new unstable flag to rustdoc, `--crate-version`, which when present will add a new entry to the sidebar of the root module, printing the given version number:

Closes#24336
(The WIP status is because i don't want to merge this until i can get the std docs to use it, which i need help from rustbuild people to make sure i get right.)
hide internal types/traits from std docs via new #[doc(masked)] attribute
Fixes#43701 (hopefully for good this time)
This PR introduces a new parameter to the `#[doc]` attribute that rustdoc looks for on `extern crate` statements. When it sees `#[doc(masked)]` on such a statement, it hides traits and types from that crate from appearing in either the "Trait Implementations" section of many type pages, or the "Implementors" section of trait pages. This is then applied to the `libc`/`rand`/`compiler_builtins` imports in libstd to prevent those crates from creating broken links in the std docs.
Like in #43348, this also introduces a feature gate, `doc_masked`, that controls the use of this parameter.

Migrate a slew of metadata methods to queries
This PR intends to make more progress on #41417, knocking off some low-hanging fruit.
Closes#44190
cc #44137
This commit moves the `crates` method to a query and then migrates all callers
to use a query instead of the now-renamed `crates_untracked` method where
possible.
Closes#41417
Previously a `Symbol` was stored there, but this ended up causing hash
collisions in situations that otherwise shouldn't have a hash collision. Only
the symbol's string value was hashed, but it was possible for distinct symbols
to have the same string value, fooling various calcuations into thinking that
these paths *didn't* need disambiguating data when in fact they did!
By storing `InternedString` instead we're hopefully triggering all the exising
logic to disambiguate paths with same-name `Symbol` but actually distinct
locations.
The main use of `CrateStore` *before* the `TyCtxt` is created is during
resolution, but we want to be sure that any methods used before resolution are
not used after the `TyCtxt` is created. This commit starts moving the methods
used by resolve to all be named `{name}_untracked` where the rest of the
compiler uses just `{name}` as a query.
During this transition a number of new queries were added to account for
post-resolve usage of these methods.
This commit makes the `named_region_map` field of `GlobalCtxt` private by
encapsulating the fields behind new queries, and the new queries are also
targeted at particular `HirId` nodes instead of accessing the entire map.
Remove duplicates in rustdoc
Fixes#43934.
Two things however:
1. I'm not happy with the current check. It seems completely overkill and unsatisfying.
2. I have no idea how to test if there is only one element and not two.
r? @rust-lang/docs
This attribute has two effects:
1. Items with this attribute and their children will have the "This is
supported on **** only" message attached in the documentation.
2. The items' doc tests will be skipped if the configuration does not
match.
