gsgdt [https://crates.io/crates/gsgdt] is a crate which provides an
interface for stringly typed graphs. It also provides generation of
graphviz dot format from said graph.
Fixes#74053Fixes#55721
This PR adds a new lint `CONST_ITEM_MUTATION`.
Given an item `const FOO: SomeType = ..`, this lint fires on:
* Attempting to write directly to a field (`FOO.field = some_val`) or
array entry (`FOO.array_field[0] = val`)
* Taking a mutable reference to the `const` item (`&mut FOO`), including
through an autoderef `FOO.some_mut_self_method()`
The lint message explains that since each use of a constant creates a
new temporary, the original `const` item will not be modified.
Similar to `-Z dump-mir-graphviz`, this adds the option to write
HTML+CSS files that allow users to analyze the spans associated with MIR
elements (by individual statement, just terminator, or overall basic
block).
This PR was split out from PR #76004, and exposes an API for spanview
HTML+CSS files that is also used to analyze code regions chosen for
coverage instrumentation (in a follow-on PR).
