Pass alignments through the shim as `Alignment` (not `usize`)
We're using `Layout` on both sides, so might as well skip the transmutes back and forth to `usize`.
The mir-opt test shows that doing so allows simplifying the boxed-slice drop slightly, for example.
Improve write! and writeln! error when called without destination
Fixesrust-lang/rust#152493
Adds catch-all arms to `write!` and `writeln!` macros so that calling them without a destination (e.g., `write!("S")` instead of `write!(f, "S")`) gives a clear error instead of the cryptic "unexpected end of macro invocation" pointing at macro internals.

stdlib docs: document lifetime extension for `format_args!`'s arguments
Since rust-lang/rust#140748 is stable and rust-lang/rust#92698 is closed, the section about `format_args!`'s argument lifetime limitation is outdated. I've updated it to point to the Reference docs, which will specify lifetime extension rules for builtin macros once rust-lang/reference#1980 or equivalent is merged.
I've also taken the liberty of updating one of the doctests to assign the result of `format_args!` to a variable, both to provide an example and because I think it reads a little better.

Implement `#[derive(From)]`
Implements the `#[derive(From)]` feature ([tracking issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/144889), [RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3809)).
It allows deriving the `From` impl on structs and tuple structs with exactly one field. Some implementation notes:
- I wasn't exactly sure which spans to use in the derive generating code, so I just used `span` everywhere. I don't know if it's the Right Thing To Do. In particular the errors when `#[derive(From)]` is used on a struct with an unsized field are weirdly duplicated.
- I had to solve an import stability problem, where if I just added the unstable `macro From` to `core::convert`, previously working code like `use std::convert::From` would suddenly require an unstable feature gate, because rustc would think that you're trying to import the unstable macro. `@petrochenkov` suggested that I add the macro the the core prelude instead. This has worked well, although it only works in edition 2021+. Not sure if I botched the prelude somehow and it should live elsewhere (?).
- I had to add `Ty::AstTy`, because the `from` function receives an argument with the type of the single field, and the existing variants of the `Ty` enum couldn't represent an arbitrary type.
Implement autodiff using intrinsics
This PR aims to move autodiff logic to `autodiff` intrinsic. Allowing us to delete a great part of our frontend code and overall, simplify the compilation pipeline of autodiff functions.
When operating on expressions, `cfg_select!` can now handle expressions
without braces. (It still requires braces for other things, such as
items.)
Expand the test coverage and documentation accordingly.
Improve formatting of doc code blocks
We don't currently apply automatic formatting to doc comment code blocks. As a
result, it has built up various idiosyncracies, which make such automatic
formatting difficult. Some of those idiosyncracies also make things harder for
human readers or other tools.
This PR makes a few improvements to doc code formatting, in the hopes of making
future automatic formatting easier, as well as in many cases providing net
readability improvements.
I would suggest reading each commit separately, as each commit contains one
class of changes.
Because doc code does not get automatically formatted, some doc code has
creative placements of comments that automatic formatting can't handle.
Reformat those comments to make the resulting code support standard Rust
formatting without breaking; this is generally an improvement to
readability as well.
Some comments are not indented to the prevailing indent, and are instead
aligned under some bit of code. Indent them to the prevailing indent,
and put spaces *inside* the comments to align them with code.
Some comments span several lines of code (which aren't the line the
comment is about) and expect alignment. Reformat them into one comment
not broken up by unrelated intervening code.
Some comments are placed on the same line as an opening brace, placing
them effectively inside the subsequent block, such that formatting would
typically format them like a line of that block. Move those comments to
attach them to what they apply to.
Some comments are placed on the same line as a one-line braced block,
effectively attaching them to the closing brace, even though they're
about the code inside the block. Reformat to make sure the comment will
stay on the same line as the code it's commenting.
Remove the deprecated unstable `concat_idents!` macro
In [rust-lang/rust#137653], the lang and libs-API teams did a joint FCP to deprecate
and eventually remove the long-unstable `concat_idents!` macro. The
deprecation is landing in 1.88, so do the removal here (target version
1.90).
This macro has been superseded by the more recent `${concat(...)}`
metavariable expression language feature, which avoids some of the
limitations of `concat_idents!`. The metavar expression is unstably
available under the [`macro_metavar_expr_concat`] feature.
History is mildly interesting here: `concat_idents!` goes back to 2011
when it was introduced with 513276e595 ("Add #concat_idents[] and
#ident_to_str[]"). The syntax looks a bit different but it still works
about the same:
let asdf_fdsa = "<.<";
assert(#concat_idents[asd,f_f,dsa] == "<.<");
assert(#ident_to_str[use_mention_distinction]
== "use_mention_distinction");
(That test existed from introduction until its removal here.)

This takes the current behavior of `file!` and documents it so it is
safe to make assumptions about.
For example, Cargo could provide a `CARGO_RUSTC_CURRENT_DIR` as a base
path for `file!`.
Example use cases
- Being able to look up test assets relative to the current file
([example](b9026bf654/tests/testsuite/cargo_add/add_basic/mod.rs (L34)))
- Inline snapshotting libraries being able to update Rust source code
([example](b9026bf654/tests/testsuite/alt_registry.rs (L36-L45)))
T-libs-api discussed two solutions
- `file_absolute!`:
- Has less meaning in other build tools like buck2
- Bakes in the assumption that a full path is available (e.g. with
trim-paths)
- Specifying `file!`s behavior (this PR):
- Leaves it to the user to deal with trim-paths
- Even though `file!` is currently unspecified, changing it would
likely have too large of an impact on the ecosystem at this time.
A future possibility is that rustc could have a flag that controls
modifies the base path used for `file!`.
That seems purely additive with specifying the behavior and we do not
want to block on it.
It would also likely be too disruptive for Cargo users (as mentioned).
However, we tried to keep this in mind when specifying the behavior.
Split `autodiff` into `autodiff_forward` and `autodiff_reverse`
This PR splits `#[autodiff]` macro so `#[autodiff(df, Reverse, args)]` would become `#[autodiff_reverse(df, args)]` and `#[autodiff(df, Forward, args)]` would become `#[autodiff_forwad(df, args)]`.
`concat_idents` has been around unstably for a long time, but there is
now a better (but still unstable) way to join identifiers using
`${concat(...)}` syntax with `macro_metavar_expr_concat`. This resolves
a lot of the problems with `concat_idents` and is on a better track
toward stabilization, so there is no need to keep both versions around.
`concat_idents!` still has a lot of use in the ecosystem so deprecate it
before removing, as discussed in [1].

Remove `#[cfg(not(test))]` gates in `core`
These gates are unnecessary now that unit tests for `core` are in a separate package, `coretests`, instead of in the same files as the source code. They previously prevented the two `core` versions from conflicting with each other.
