`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.
Add unpolished, experimental support for AFIDT (async fn in dyn trait)
This allows us to begin messing around `async fn` in `dyn Trait`. Calling an async fn from a trait object always returns a `dyn* Future<Output = ...>`.
To make it work, Implementations are currently required to return something that can be coerced to a `dyn* Future` (see the example in `tests/ui/async-await/dyn/works.rs`). If it's not the right size, then it'll raise an error at the coercion site (see the example in `tests/ui/async-await/dyn/wrong-size.rs`). Currently the only practical way of doing this is wrapping the body in `Box::pin(async move { .. })`.
This PR does not implement a helper type like a "`Boxing`"[^boxing] adapter, and I'll probably follow-up with another PR to improve the error message for the `PointerLike` trait (something that explains in just normal prose what is happening here, rather than a trait error).
[^boxing]: https://rust-lang.github.io/async-fundamentals-initiative/explainer/user_guide_future.html#the-boxing-adapter
This PR also does not implement new trait solver support for AFIDT; I'll need to think how best to integrate it into candidate assembly, and that's a bit of a matter of taste, but I don't think it will be difficult to do.
This could also be generalized:
* To work on functions that are `-> impl Future` (soon).
* To work on functions that are `-> impl Iterator` and other "dyn rpitit safe" traits. We still need to nail down exactly what is needed for this to be okay (not soon).

Shrink `TyKind::FnPtr`.
By splitting the `FnSig` within `TyKind::FnPtr` into `FnSigTys` and `FnHeader`, which can be packed more efficiently. This reduces the size of the hot `TyKind` type from 32 bytes to 24 bytes on 64-bit platforms. This reduces peak memory usage by a few percent on some benchmarks. It also reduces cache misses and page faults similarly, though this doesn't translate to clear cycles or wall-time improvements on CI.

Implement `needs_async_drop` in rustc and optimize async drop glue
This PR expands on #121801 and implements `Ty::needs_async_drop` which works almost exactly the same as `Ty::needs_drop`, which is needed for #123948.
Also made compiler's async drop code to look more like compiler's regular drop code, which enabled me to write an optimization where types which do not use `AsyncDrop` can simply forward async drop glue to `drop_in_place`. This made size of the async block from the [async_drop test](67980dd6fb/tests/ui/async-await/async-drop.rs) to decrease by 12%.
Rename Unsafe to Safety
Alternative to #124455, which is to just have one Safety enum to use everywhere, this opens the posibility of adding `ast::Safety::Safe` that's useful for unsafe extern blocks.
This leaves us today with:
```rust
enum ast::Safety {
Unsafe(Span),
Default,
// Safe (going to be added for unsafe extern blocks)
}
enum hir::Safety {
Unsafe,
Safe,
}
```
We would convert from `ast::Safety::Default` into the right Safety level according the context.
Split out `ty::AliasTerm` from `ty::AliasTy`
Splitting out `AliasTerm` (for use in project and normalizes goals) and `AliasTy` (for use in `ty::Alias`)
r? lcnr
`InferCtxt::next_{ty,const}_var*` all take an origin, but the
`param_def_id` is almost always `None`. This commit changes them to just
take a `Span` and build the origin within the method, and adds new
methods for the rare cases where `param_def_id` might not be `None`.
This avoids a lot of tedious origin building.
Specifically:
- next_ty_var{,_id_in_universe,_in_universe}: now take `Span` instead of
`TypeVariableOrigin`
- next_ty_var_with_origin: added
- next_const_var{,_in_universe}: takes Span instead of ConstVariableOrigin
- next_const_var_with_origin: added
- next_region_var, next_region_var_in_universe: these are unchanged,
still take RegionVariableOrigin
The API inconsistency (ty/const vs region) seems worth it for the
large conciseness improvements.
Add simple async drop glue generation
This is a prototype of the async drop glue generation for some simple types. Async drop glue is intended to behave very similar to the regular drop glue except for being asynchronous. Currently it does not execute synchronous drops but only calls user implementations of `AsyncDrop::async_drop` associative function and awaits the returned future. It is not complete as it only recurses into arrays, slices, tuples, and structs and does not have same sensible restrictions as the old `Drop` trait implementation like having the same bounds as the type definition, while code assumes their existence (requires a future work).
This current design uses a workaround as it does not create any custom async destructor state machine types for ADTs, but instead uses types defined in the std library called future combinators (deferred_async_drop, chain, ready_unit).
Also I recommend reading my [explainer](https://zetanumbers.github.io/book/async-drop-design.html).
This is a part of the [MCP: Low level components for async drop](https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/727) work.
