typestrong const integers
~~It would be great if someone could run crater on this PR, as this has a high danger of breaking valid code~~ Crater ran. Good to go.
----
So this PR does a few things:
1. ~~const eval array values when const evaluating an array expression~~
2. ~~const eval repeat value when const evaluating a repeat expression~~
3. ~~const eval all struct and tuple fields when evaluating a struct/tuple expression~~
4. remove the `ConstVal::Int` and `ConstVal::Uint` variants and replace them with a single enum (`ConstInt`) which has variants for all integral types
* `usize`/`isize` are also enums with variants for 32 and 64 bit. At creation and various usage steps there are assertions in place checking if the target bitwidth matches with the chosen enum variant
5. enum discriminants (`ty::Disr`) are now `ConstInt`
6. trans has its own `Disr` type now (newtype around `u64`)
This obviously can't be done without breaking changes (the ones that are noticable in stable)
We could probably write lints that find those situations and error on it for a cycle or two. But then again, those situations are rare and really bugs imo anyway:
```rust
let v10 = 10 as i8;
let v4 = 4 as isize;
assert_eq!(v10 << v4 as usize, 160 as i8);
```
stops compiling because 160 is not a valid i8
```rust
struct S<T, S> {
a: T,
b: u8,
c: S
}
let s = S { a: 0xff_ff_ff_ffu32, b: 1, c: 0xaa_aa_aa_aa as i32 };
```
stops compiling because `0xaa_aa_aa_aa` is not a valid i32

Add a link validator to rustbuild
This commit was originally targeted at just adding a link checking script to the rustbuild system. This ended up snowballing a bit to extend rustbuild to be amenable to various tools we have as part of the build system in general.
There's a new `src/tools` directory which has a number of scripts/programs that are purely intended to be used as part of the build system and CI of this repository. This is currently inhabited by rustbook, the error index generator, and a new linkchecker script added as part of this PR. I suspect that more tools like compiletest, tidy scripts, snapshot scripts, etc will migrate their way into this directory over time.
The commit which adds the error index generator shows the steps necessary to add new tools to the build system, namely:
1. New steps are defined for building the tool and running the tool
2. The dependencies are configured
3. The steps are implemented
In terms of the link checker, these commits do a few things:
* A new `src/tools/linkchecker` script is added. This will read an entire documentation tree looking for broken relative links (HTTP links aren't followed yet).
* A large number of broken links throughout the documentation were fixed. Many of these were just broken when viewed from core as opposed to std, but were easily fixed.
* A few rustdoc bugs here and there were fixed
There's a lot of stuff wrong with the representation of these types:
TyFnDef doesn't actually uniquely identify a function, TyFnPtr is used to
represent method calls, TyFnDef in the sub-expression of a cast isn't
correctly reified, and probably some other stuff I haven't discovered yet.
Splitting them seems like the right first step, though.
Right now whenever rustdoc inlines a struct or enum from another crate it ends
up inlining *all* `impl` items found in the other crate at the same time. The
rationale for this was to discover all trait impls which are otherwise not
probed for. This unfortunately picks up a lot of impls of public traits for
private types, causing lots of broken links.
This commit instead hoards all of those inlined impls into a temporary storage
location which is then selectively drawn from whenever we inline a new type.
This should ensure that we still inline all relevant impls while avoiding all
private ones.
The local item-path includes the local crates path to the extern crate
declaration which breaks cross-crate rustdoc links if the extern crate
is not linked into the crate root or renamed via `extern foo as bar`.
this simplifies the code while reducing the size of libcore.rlib by
3.3 MiB (~1M of which is bloat a separate patch of mine removes
too), while reducing rustc memory usage on small crates by 18MiB.
This also simplifies the code considerably.
rustdoc: Associated type fixes
The first commit fixes a bug with "dud" items in the search index from
misrepresented `type` items in trait impl blocks.
For a trait *implementation* there are typedefs which are the types for
that particular trait and implementor. Skip these in the search index.
There were lots of dud items in the search index due to this (search for
Item, Iterator's associated type).
Add a boolean to clean::TypedefItem so that it tracks whether the it is
a type alias on its own, or if it's a `type` item in a trait impl.
The second commit fixes a bug that made signatures and where bounds
using associated types (if they were not on `Self`) incorrect.
The third commit fixes so that where clauses in type alias definititons
are shown.

Whenever a type implements Deref, rustdoc will now add a section to the "methods
available" sections for "Methods from Deref<Target=Foo>", listing all the
inherent methods of the type `Foo`.
Closes#19190
This ends up causing duplicate output in rustdoc. The source of these duplicates
is that the item is defined in both resolve namespaces, so it's listed twice.
Closes#23207
* All bounds are now discovered through the trait to be inlined.
* The `?Sized` bound now renders correctly for inlined associated types.
* All `QPath`s (`<A as B>::C`) instances are rendered as `A::C` where `C` is a
hyperlink to the trait `B`. This should improve at least how the docs look at
least.
* Supertrait bounds are now separated and display as the source lists them.
Closes#20727Closes#21145
This ensures that all external traits are run through the same filters that the
rest of the AST goes through, stripping hidden function as necessary.
