Add `AliasKind::Weak` for type aliases.
`type Foo<T: Debug> = Bar<T>;` does not check `T: Debug` at use sites of `Foo<NotDebug>`, because in contrast to a
```rust
trait Identity {
type Identity;
}
impl<T: Debug> Identity for T {
type Identity = T;
}
<NotDebug as Identity>::Identity
```
type aliases do not exist in the type system, but are expanded to their aliased type immediately when going from HIR to the type layer.
Similarly:
* a private type alias for a public type is a completely fine thing, even though it makes it a bit hard to write out complex times sometimes
* rustdoc expands the type alias, even though often times users use them for documentation purposes
* diagnostics show the expanded type, which is confusing if the user wrote a type alias and the diagnostic talks about another type that they don't know about.
For type alias impl trait, these issues do not actually apply in most cases, but sometimes you have a type alias impl trait like `type Foo<T: Debug> = (impl Debug, Bar<T>);`, which only really checks it for `impl Debug`, but by accident prevents `Bar<T>` from only being instantiated after proving `T: Debug`. This PR makes sure that we always check these bounds explicitly and don't rely on an implementation accident.
To not break all the type aliases out there, we only use it when the type alias contains an opaque type. We can decide to do this for all type aliases over an edition.
Or we can later extend this to more types if we figure out the back-compat concerns with suddenly checking such bounds.
As a side effect, easily allows fixing https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/108617, which I did.

Make assumption functions in new solver take `Binder<'tcx, Clause<'tcx>>`
We just use an if-let to match on an optional clause at all the places where we transition from `Predicate` -> `Clause`, but I assume that when things like item-bounds and param-env start to only store `Clause`s then those can just be trivially dropped.

Opportunistically resolve regions in new solver
Use `opportunistic_resolve_var` during canonicalization to collapse some regions.
We have to start using `CanonicalVarValues::is_identity_modulo_regions`. We also have to modify that function to consider responses like `['static, ^0, '^1, ^2]` to be an "identity" response, since because we opportunistically resolve regions, there's no longer a 1:1 mapping between canonical var values and bound var indices in the response...
There's one nasty side-effect -- one test (`tests/ui/dyn-star/param-env-infer.rs`) starts to ICE because the certainty goes from `Yes` to `Maybe(Overflow)`... Not exactly sure why, though? Putting this up for discussion/investigation.

Safe Transmute: Enable handling references
This patch enables support for references in Safe Transmute, by generating nested obligations during trait selection. Specifically, when we call `confirm_transmutability_candidate(...)`, we now recursively traverse the `rustc_transmute::Answer` tree and create obligations for all the `Answer` variants, some of which include multiple nested `Answer`s.
- Create `Answer` type that is not just a type alias of `Result`
- Remove a usage of `map_layouts` to make the code easier to read
- Don't hide errors related to Unknown Layout when computing transmutability
Add `-Ztrait-solver=next-coherence`
Flag that conditionally uses the trait solver *only* during coherence, for more testing and/or eventual partial-migration onto the trait solver (in the medium- to long-term).
* This still uses the selection context in some of the coherence methods I think, so it's not "complete". Putting this up for review and/or for further work in-tree.
* I probably need to spend a bit more time making sure that we don't sneakily create any other infcx's during coherence that also need the new solver enabled.
r? `@lcnr`
This patch updates the `Answer` type from `rustc_transmute` so that it just a
type alias to `Result`. This makes it so that the standard methods for `Result`
can be used to process the `Answer` tree, including being able to make use of
the `?` operator on `Answer`s.
Also, remove some unused functions
Clear response values for overflow in new solver
When we have an overflow, return a trivial query response. This fixes an ICE with the code described in #110544:
```rust
trait Trait {}
struct W<T>(T);
impl<T, U> Trait for W<(W<T>, W<U>)>
where
W<T>: Trait,
W<U>: Trait,
{}
fn impls<T: Trait>() {}
fn main() {
impls::<W<_>>()
}
```
Where, while proving `W<?0>: Trait`, we overflow but still apply the query response of `?0 = (W<?1>, W<?2>)`. Then while re-processing the query to validate that our evaluation result was stable, we get a different query response that looks like `?1 = (W<?3>, W<?4>), ?2 = (W<?5>, W<?6>)`, and so we trigger the ICE.
Also, by returning a trivial query response we also avoid the infinite-loop/OOM behavior of the old solver.
