I had it a couple of times that I was missing the "extern crate" line
after I introduced a new dependency. So I copied the text from the
message and inserted it into the beginning of my code, only to find the
compiler complaining that I was missing the semicolon. (I forgot to add
it after the text that I had pasted.)
There's a similar message which does include the semicolon, namely
"help: you can import it into scope: `use foo::Bar;`". I think the two
messages should be consistent, so this change adds it for "extern
crate".
macros 1.1: future proofing and cleanup
This PR
- uses the macro namespace for custom derives (instead of a dedicated custom derive namespace),
- relaxes the shadowing rules for `#[macro_use]`-imported custom derives to match the shadowing rules for ordinary `#[macro_use]`-imported macros, and
- treats custom derive `extern crate`s like empty modules so that we can eventually allow, for example, `extern crate serde_derive; use serde_derive::Serialize;` backwards compatibly.

Changed error message E0408 to new format
Followed your text and was able to change the ouput to the new format.
I did not encounter any broken test therefore this is a really small commit.
Thanks for letting me hack on the compiler :)

macros: clean up scopes of expanded `#[macro_use]` imports
This PR changes the scope of macro-expanded `#[macro_use]` imports to match that of unexpanded `#[macro_use]` imports. For example, this would be allowed:
```rust
example!();
macro_rules! m { () => { #[macro_use(example)] extern crate example_crate; } }
m!();
```
This PR also enforces the full shadowing restrictions from RFC 1560 on `#[macro_use]` imports (currently, we only enforce the weakened restrictions from #36767).
This is a [breaking-change], but I believe it is highly unlikely to cause breakage in practice.

Enforce the shadowing restrictions from RFC 1560 for today's macros
This PR enforces a weakened version of the shadowing restrictions from RFC 1560. More specifically,
- If a macro expansion contains a `macro_rules!` macro definition that is used outside of the expansion, the defined macro may not shadow an existing macro.
- If a macro expansion contains a `#[macro_use] extern crate` macro import that is used outside of the expansion, the imported macro may not shadow an existing macro.
This is a [breaking-change]. For example,
```rust
macro_rules! m { () => {} }
macro_rules! n { () => {
macro_rules! m { () => {} } //< This shadows an existing macro.
m!(); //< This is inside the expansion that generated `m`'s definition, so it is OK.
} }
n!();
m!(); //< This use of `m` is outside the expansion, so it causes the shadowing to be an error.
```

Assign node ids during macro expansion
After this PR,
- The `ExtCtxt` can access `resolve`'s `Resolver` through the trait object `ext::base::Resolver`.
- The `Resolver` trait object can load macros and replaces today's `MacroLoader` trait object.
- The macro expander uses the `Resolver` trait object to resolve macro invocations.
- The macro expander assigns node ids and builds the `Resolver`'s `macros_at_scope` map.
- This is groundwork for merging import resolution and expansion.
- Performance of expansion together with node id assignment improves by ~5%.
**EDIT:** Since Github is reordering the commits, here is `git log`:
- b54e1e3997: Differentiate between monotonic and non-monotonic expansion and only assign node ids during monotonic expansion.
- 78c0039878: Expand generated test harnesses and macro registries.
- f3c2dca353: Remove scope placeholders from the crate root.
- c86c8d41a2: Perform node id assignment and `macros_at_scope` construction during the `InvocationCollector` and `PlaceholderExpander` folds.
- 72a636975f: Move macro resolution into `librustc_resolve`.
- 20b43b2323: Rewrite the unit tests in `ext/expand.rs` as a `compile-fail` test.
- a9821e1658: Refactor `ExtCtxt` to use a `Resolver` instead of a `MacroLoader`.
- 60440b226d: Refactor `noop_fold_stmt_kind` out of `noop_fold_stmt`.
- 50f94f6c95: Avoid needless reexpansions.

The span labels for associated types and consts were hardcoded to `Foo`
rather than substituting the name of the trait.
This also normalizes the wording for associated methods', traits', and
consts' span labels.
Fixes#36428.
