Fix translation of external spans
Previously, I noticed that spans from external crates don't generate any output. This limitation is problematic if analysis is performed on one or more external crates, as is the case with [rust-semverver](https://github.com/ibabushkin/rust-semverver). This change should address this behaviour, with the potential drawback that a minor performance hit is to be expected, as spans from potentially large crates have to be translated now.
This improves #32077, but is not a complete fix. For a type alias `type
NewType = AliasedType`, it will include any `impl NewType` and `impl
Trait for NewType` blocks in the documentation for `NewType`.
A complete fix would include the implementations from the aliased type
in the type alias' documentation, so that users have a complete
picture of methods that are available on the alias. However, to do this
properly would require a fix for #14072, as the alias may affect the
type parameters of the type alias, making the documentation difficult to
understand. (That is, for `type Result = std::result::Result<(), ()>` we
would ideally show documentation for `impl Result<(), ()>`, rather than
generic documentation for `impl<T, E> Result<T, E>`).
I think this improvement is worthwhile, as it exposes implementations
which are not currently documented by rustdoc. The documentation for the
implementations on the aliased type are still accessible by clicking
through to the docs for that type. (Although perhaps it's now less
obvious to the user that they should click-through to get there).
These methods can never be called through deref so there is no point
including them. For example you can't call `into_boxed_bytes` or
`into_string` on `String`.
Upgrade ProjectionTy's Name to a DefId
Part of #42171, in preparation for downgrading the contained `TraitRef` to
only its `substs`.
Some inline questions in the diff. Look for `FIXME(tschottdorf)`. These comments
should be addressed before merging.
Rather than (ab)using Debug for outputting the type in plain text use the
alternate format parameter which already does exactly that. This fixes
type parameters for example which would output raw HTML.
Also cleans up adding parens around references to trait objects.
Removal pass for anonymous parameters
Removes occurences of anonymous parameters from the
rustc codebase, as they are to be deprecated.
See issue #41686 and RFC 1685.

[on-demand] Turn monomorphic_const_eval into a proper query, not just a cache.
The error definitions and reporting logic, alongside with `eval_length` were moved to `librustc`.
Both local and cross-crate constant evaluation is on-demand now, but the latter is only used for `enum` discriminants, to replace the manual insertion into the cache which was done when decoding variants.
r? @nikomatsakis
Add a `TyErr` type to represent unknown types in places where
parse errors have happened, while still able to build the AST.
Initially only used to represent incorrectly written fn arguments and
avoid "expected X parameters, found Y" errors when called with the
appropriate amount of parameters. We cannot use `TyInfer` for this as
`_` is not allowed as a valid argument type.
Example output:
```rust
error: expected one of `:` or `@`, found `,`
--> file.rs:12:9
|
12 | fn bar(x, y: usize) {}
| ^
error[E0061]: this function takes 2 parameters but 3 parameters were supplied
--> file.rs:19:9
|
12 | fn bar(x, y) {}
| --------------- defined here
...
19 | bar(1, 2, 3);
| ^^^^^^^ expected 2 parameters
```
This is the full and proper fix for #32330. This also makes some effort
to give a nice error message (as evidenced by the `ui` test), sending
users over to the tracking issue for a full explanation.
Add warning for () to ! switch
With feature(never_type) enabled diverging type variables will default to `!` instead of `()`. This can cause breakages where a trait is resolved on such a type.
This PR emits a future-compatibility warning when it sees this happen.
Bounds parsing refactoring 2
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/37511 for previous discussion.

Relaxed parsing rules:
- zero bounds after `:` are allowed in all contexts.
- zero predicates are allowed after `where`.
- trailing separator `,` is allowed after predicates in `where` clauses not followed by `{`.
Other parsing rules:
- trailing separator `+` is still allowed in all bound lists.
Code is also cleaned up and tests added.
I haven't touched parsing of trait object types yet, I'll do it later.
