Add new simpler and more explicit syntax for check-cfg

<details>
<summary>
Old proposition (before the MCP)
</summary>

This PR adds a new simpler and more explicit syntax for check-cfg. It consist of two new form:
 - `exhaustive(names, values)`
 - `configure(name, "value1", "value2", ... "valueN")`

The preview forms `names(...)` and `values(...)` have implicit meaning that are not strait-forward. In particular `values(foo)`&`values(bar)` and `names(foo, bar)` are not equivalent which has created [some confusions](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/98080).

Also the `names()` and `values()` form are not clear either and again created some confusions where peoples believed that `values()`&`values(foo)` could be reduced to just `values(foo)`.

To fix that the two new forms are made to be explicit and simpler. See the table of correspondence:
  - `names()` -> `exhaustive(names)`
  - `values()` -> `exhaustive(values)`
  - `names(foo)` -> `exhaustive(names)`&`configure(foo)`
  - `values(foo)` -> `configure(foo)`
  - `values(feat, "foo", "bar")` -> `configure(feat, "foo", "bar")`
  - `values(foo)`&`values(bar)` -> `configure(foo, bar)`
  - `names()`&`values()`&`values(my_cfg)` -> `exhaustive(names, values)`&`configure(my_cfg)`

Another benefits of the new syntax is that it allow for further options (like conditional checking for --cfg, currently always on) without syntax change.

The two previous forms are deprecated and will be removed once cargo and beta rustc have the necessary support.

This PR is the first part of the implementation of [MCP636 - Simplify and improve explicitness of the check-cfg syntax](https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/636).

## New `cfg` form

It introduces the new [`cfg` form](https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/636) and deprecate the other two:
```
rustc --check-cfg 'cfg(name1, ..., nameN, values("value1", "value2", ... "valueN"))'
```

## Default built-in names and values

It also changes the default for the built-in names and values checking.

 - Built-in values checking would always be activated as long as a `--check-cfg` argument is present
 - Built-in names checking would always be activated as long as a `--check-cfg` argument is present **unless** if any `cfg(any())` arg is passed

~~**Note: depends on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/111068 but is reviewable (last two commits)!**~~

check them. The `--check-cfg` option takes a value, called the _check cfg specification_. The
check cfg specification is parsed using the Rust metadata syntax, just as the `--cfg` option is.
`--check-cfg` option can take one of two forms:
`--check-cfg` option take one form:
1. `--check-cfg names(...)` enables checking condition names.
2. `--check-cfg values(...)` enables checking the values within list-valued conditions.
These two options are independent. `names` checks only the namespace of condition names
while `values` checks only the namespace of the values of list-valued conditions.
1. `--check-cfg cfg(...)` enables checking the values within list-valued conditions.
NOTE: No implicit expectation is added when using `--cfg` for both forms. Users are expected to
pass all expected names and values using `names(...)` and `values(...)`.
pass all expected names and values using `cfg(...)`.
## The `names(...)` form
## The `cfg(...)` form
The `cfg(...)` form enables checking the values within list-valued conditions. It has this
basic form:
```bash
rustc --check-cfg 'cfg(name1, ..., nameN, values("value1", "value2", ... "valueN"))'
```
where `name` is a bare identifier (has no quotes) and each `"value"` term is a quoted literal
string. `name` specifies the name of the condition, such as `feature` or `my_cfg`.
When the `cfg(...)` option is specified, `rustc` will check every `#[cfg(name = "value")]`
attribute, `#[cfg_attr(name = "value")]` attribute, `#[link(name = "a", cfg(name = "value"))]`
and `cfg!(name = "value")` call. It will check that the `"value"` specified is present in the
list of expected values. If `"value"` is not in it, then `rustc` will report an `unexpected_cfgs`
lint diagnostic. The default diagnostic level for this lint is `Warn`.
To enable checking of values, but to provide an empty set of expected values, use these forms:
```bash
rustc --check-cfg 'cfg(name1, ..., nameN)'
rustc --check-cfg 'cfg(name1, ..., nameN, values())'
```
To enable checking of name but not values (i.e. unknown expected values), use this form:
```bash
rustc --check-cfg 'cfg(name1, ..., nameN, values(any()))'
```
The `--check-cfg cfg(...)` option can be repeated, both for the same condition name and for
different names. If it is repeated for the same condition name, then the sets of values for that
condition are merged together (presedence is given to `any()`).
## Well known names and values
`rustc` has a internal list of well known names and their corresponding values.
Those well known names and values follows the same stability as what they refer to.
Well known values checking is always enabled as long as a `--check-cfg` argument is present.
Well known names checking is always enable as long as a `--check-cfg` argument is present
**unless** any `cfg(any())` argument is passed.
To disable checking of well known names, use this form:
```bash
rustc --check-cfg 'cfg(any())'
```
NOTE: If one want to enable values and names checking without having any cfg to declare, one
can use an empty `cfg()` argument.
## Examples
Consider this command line:
```bash
rustc --check-cfg 'cfg(feature, values("lion", "zebra"))' \
--cfg 'feature="lion"' -Z unstable-options \
example.rs
```
This command line indicates that this crate has two features: `lion` and `zebra`. The `lion`
feature is enabled, while the `zebra` feature is disabled. Exhaustive checking of names and
values are enabled by default. Consider compiling this code:
```rust
// This is expected, and tame_lion() will be compiled
#[cfg(feature = "lion")]
fn tame_lion(lion: Lion) {}
// This is expected, and ride_zebra() will NOT be compiled.
#[cfg(feature = "zebra")]
fn ride_zebra(zebra: Zebra) {}
// This is UNEXPECTED, and will cause a compiler warning (by default).
#[cfg(feature = "platypus")]
fn poke_platypus() {}
// This is UNEXPECTED, because 'feechure' is not a known condition name,
// and will cause a compiler warning (by default).
#[cfg(feechure = "lion")]
fn tame_lion() {}
// This is UNEXPECTED, because 'windows' is a well known condition name,
// and because 'windows' doens't take any values,
// and will cause a compiler warning (by default).
#[cfg(windows = "unix")]
fn tame_windows() {}
```
### Example: Checking condition names, but not values
```bash
# This turns on checking for condition names, but not values, such as 'feature' values.
rustc --check-cfg 'cfg(is_embedded, has_feathers, values(any()))' \
--cfg has_feathers -Z unstable-options
```
```rust
#[cfg(is_embedded)] // This is expected as "is_embedded" was provided in cfg()
fn do_embedded() {} // and because names exhaustiveness was not disabled
#[cfg(has_feathers)] // This is expected as "has_feathers" was provided in cfg()
fn do_features() {} // and because names exhaustiveness was not disbaled
#[cfg(has_feathers = "zapping")] // This is expected as "has_feathers" was provided in cfg()
// and because no value checking was enable for "has_feathers"
// no warning is emitted for the value "zapping"
fn do_zapping() {}
#[cfg(has_mumble_frotz)] // This is UNEXPECTED because names checking is enable and
// "has_mumble_frotz" was not provided in cfg()
fn do_mumble_frotz() {}

```bash
# This turns on checking for feature values, but not for condition names.
rustc --check-cfg 'configure(feature, values("zapping", "lasers"))' \

```
```rust
#[cfg(is_embedded)] // This is doesn't raise a warning, because names checking was
// disabled by 'cfg(any())'
fn do_embedded() {}
#[cfg(has_feathers)] // Same as above, 'cfg(any())' was provided so no name
// checking is performed
fn do_features() {}
#[cfg(feature = "lasers")] // This is expected, "lasers" is in the cfg(feature) list
fn shoot_lasers() {}
#[cfg(feature = "monkeys")] // This is UNEXPECTED, because "monkeys" is not in the
// cfg(feature) list

# This turns on checking for feature values and for condition names.
rustc --check-cfg 'cfg(is_embedded, has_feathers)' \
--check-cfg 'cfg(feature, values("zapping", "lasers"))' \

```
```rust
#[cfg(is_embedded)] // This is expected because "is_embedded" was provided in cfg()
fn do_embedded() {} // and doesn't take any value
#[cfg(has_feathers)] // This is expected because "has_feathers" was provided in cfg()
fn do_features() {} // and deosn't take any value
#[cfg(has_mumble_frotz)] // This is UNEXPECTED, because "has_mumble_frotz" was never provided
fn do_mumble_frotz() {}

fn shoot_lasers() {}
#[cfg(feature = "monkeys")] // This is UNEXPECTED, because "monkeys" is not in
// the cfg(feature) list
fn write_shakespeare() {}
