Do not ignore uninhabited types for function-call ABI purposes. (Remove BackendRepr::Uninhabited)
Accepted MCP: https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/832Fixes#135802
Do not consider the inhabitedness of a type for function call ABI purposes.
* Remove the [`rustc_abi::BackendRepr::Uninhabited`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/rustc_abi/enum.BackendRepr.html) variant
* Instead calculate the `BackendRepr` of uninhabited types "normally" (as though they were not uninhabited "at the top level", but still considering inhabitedness of variants to determine enum layout, etc)
* Add an `uninhabited: bool` field to [`rustc_abi::LayoutData`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/rustc_abi/struct.LayoutData.html) so inhabitedness of a `LayoutData` can still be queried when necessary (e.g. when determining if an enum variant needs a tag value allocated to it).
This should not affect type layouts (size/align/field offset); this should only affect function call ABI, and only of uninhabited types.

This commit removes the `avr-unknown-gnu-atmega328` target and replaces
it with a more generic `avr-none` variant that must be specialized with
the `-C target-cpu` flag (e.g. `-C target-cpu=atmega328p`).
Also this generates an error when `repr` is used on a trait method and
the `fn_align` feature is not enabled. Looks like that was missed here:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/110313/files
Which first enables the align attribute on trait methods.
Disable dead variant removal for `#[repr(C)]` enums.
This prevents removing dead branches from a `#[repr(C)]` enum (they now get discriminants allocated as if they were inhabited).
Implementation notes: ABI of something like
```rust
#[repr(C)]
enum Foo {
Foo(!),
}
```
is still `Uninhabited`, but its layout is now computed as if all the branches were inhabited.
This seemed to me like a proper way to do it, especially given that ABI sanity check explicitly asserts that type-level uninhabitedness implies ABI uninhabitedness.
This probably needs some sort of FCP (given that it changes `#[repr(C)]` layout, which is a stable guarantee), but I’m not sure how to call for one or which team is the most relevant.
See https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines/issues/500.
Include the computed alignment of the violating field when rejecting
transparent types with non-trivially aligned ZSTs.
ZST member fields in transparent types must have an alignment of 1 (to
ensure it does not raise the layout requirements of the transparent
field). The current error message looks like this:
LL | struct Foobar(u32, [u32; 0]);
| ^^^^^^^^ has alignment larger than 1
This patch changes the report to include the alignment of the violating
field:
LL | struct Foobar(u32, [u32; 0]);
| ^^^^^^^^ has alignment of 4, which is larger than 1
In case of unknown alignments, it will yield:
LL | struct Foobar<T>(u32, [T; 0]);
| ^^^^^^ may have alignment larger than 1
This allows developers to get a better grasp why a specific field is
rejected. Knowing the alignment of the violating field makes it easier
to judge where that alignment-requirement originates, and thus hopefully
provide better hints on how to mitigate the problem.
This idea was proposed in 2022 in #98071 as part of a bigger change.
This commit simply extracts this error-message change, to decouple it
from the other diagnostic improvements.
This is what ISO C strongly implies this is correct, and
many processor-specific ABIs imply or mandate this size, so
"everyone" (LLVM, gcc...) defaults to emitting enums this way.
However, this is by no means guaranteed by ISO C,
and the bare-metal Arm targets show it can be overridden,
which rustc supports via `c-enum-min-bits` in a target.json.
The override is a flag named `-fshort-enums` in clang and gcc,
but introducing a CLI flag is probably unnecessary for rustc.
This flag can be used by non-Arm microcontroller targets,
like AVR and MSP430, but it is not enabled for them by default.
Rust programmers who know the size of a target's enums
can use explicit reprs, which also lets them match C23 code.
This change is most relevant to 16-bit targets: AVR and MSP430.
Most of rustc's targets use 32-bit ints, but ILP64 does exist.
Regardless, rustc should now correctly handle enums for
both very small and very large targets.
Thanks to William for confirming MSP430 behavior,
and to Waffle for better style and no-core size_of asserts.
