Unfortunately, we can't always offer a machine-applicable suggestion when there are subpatterns from macro expansion.

The original proposal allows reference patterns
with "compatible" mutability, however it's not clear
what that means so for now we require an exact match.
I don't know the type system code well, so if something
seems to not make sense it's probably because I made a
mistake
I have a suspicion that quite a few delayed bug paths are impossible to
reach, so I did an experiment.
I converted every `delayed_bug` to a `bug`, ran the full test suite,
then converted back every `bug` that was hit. A surprising number were
never hit.
The next commit will convert some more back, based on human judgment.
Error codes are integers, but `String` is used everywhere to represent
them. Gross!
This commit introduces `ErrCode`, an integral newtype for error codes,
replacing `String`. It also introduces a constant for every error code,
e.g. `E0123`, and removes the `error_code!` macro. The constants are
imported wherever used with `use rustc_errors::codes::*`.
With the old code, we have three different ways to specify an error code
at a use point:
```
error_code!(E0123) // macro call
struct_span_code_err!(dcx, span, E0123, "msg"); // bare ident arg to macro call
\#[diag(name, code = "E0123")] // string
struct Diag;
```
With the new code, they all use the `E0123` constant.
```
E0123 // constant
struct_span_code_err!(dcx, span, E0123, "msg"); // constant
\#[diag(name, code = E0123)] // constant
struct Diag;
```
The commit also changes the structure of the error code definitions:
- `rustc_error_codes` now just defines a higher-order macro listing the
used error codes and nothing else.
- Because that's now the only thing in the `rustc_error_codes` crate, I
moved it into the `lib.rs` file and removed the `error_codes.rs` file.
- `rustc_errors` uses that macro to define everything, e.g. the error
code constants and the `DIAGNOSTIC_TABLES`. This is in its new
`codes.rs` file.
THIR unsafety checking was getting a cycle of
function unsafety checking
-> building THIR for the function
-> evaluating pattern inline constants in the function
-> building MIR for the inline constant
-> checking unsafety of functions (so that THIR can be stolen)
This is fixed by not stealing THIR when generating MIR but instead when
unsafety checking.
This leaves an issue with pattern inline constants not being unsafety
checked because they are evaluated away when generating THIR.
To fix that we now represent inline constants in THIR patterns and
visit them in THIR unsafety checking.
Currently a `{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage` can be created from any type that
impls `Into<String>`. That includes `&str`, `String`, and `Cow<'static,
str>`, which are reasonable. It also includes `&String`, which is pretty
weird, and results in many places making unnecessary allocations for
patterns like this:
```
self.fatal(&format!(...))
```
This creates a string with `format!`, takes a reference, passes the
reference to `fatal`, which does an `into()`, which clones the
reference, doing a second allocation. Two allocations for a single
string, bleh.
This commit changes the `From` impls so that you can only create a
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage` from `&str`, `String`, or `Cow<'static,
str>`. This requires changing all the places that currently create one
from a `&String`. Most of these are of the `&format!(...)` form
described above; each one removes an unnecessary static `&`, plus an
allocation when executed. There are also a few places where the existing
use of `&String` was more reasonable; these now just use `clone()` at
the call site.
As well as making the code nicer and more efficient, this is a step
towards possibly using `Cow<'static, str>` in
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage::{Str,Eager}`. That would require changing
the `From<&'a str>` impls to `From<&'static str>`, which is doable, but
I'm not yet sure if it's worthwhile.
