Dubious changes:
- Is anyone else using rustc_apfloat? I feel weird completely deleting
x87 support.
- Maybe some of the dead code in rustc_data_structures, in case someone
wants to use it in the future?
- Don't change rustc_serialize
I plan to scrap most of the json module in the near future (see
https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/418) and fixing the
tests needed more work than I expected.
TODO: check if any of the comments on the deleted code should be kept.
Fixes#74616
Makes progress towards #43081
Unblocks PR #76130
When pretty-printing an AST node, we may insert additional parenthesis
to ensure that precedence is properly preserved in code we output.
However, the proc macro implementation relies on comparing a
pretty-printed AST node to the captured `TokenStream`. Inserting extra
parenthesis changes the structure of the reparsed `TokenStream`, making
the comparison fail.
This PR refactors the AST pretty-printing code to allow skipping the
insertion of additional parenthesis. Several freestanding methods are
moved to trait methods on `PrintState`, which keep track of an internal
`insert_extra_parens` flag. This flag is normally `true`, but we expose
a public method which allows pretty-printing a nonterminal with
`insert_extra_parens = false`.
To avoid changing the public interface of `rustc_ast_pretty`, the
freestanding `_to_string` methods are changed to delegate to a
newly-crated `State`. The main pretty-printing code is moved to a new
`state` module to ensure that it does not accidentally call any of these
public helper functions (instead, the internal functions with the same
name should be used).
