HirId has a more stable representation than NodeId, meaning that
modifications to one item don't influence (part of) the IDs within
other items. The other part is a DefIndex for which there already
is a way of stable hashing and persistence.
This commit introduces the HirId type and generates a HirId for
every NodeId during HIR lowering, but the resulting values are
not yet used anywhere, except in consistency checks.
syntax: add `ast::ItemKind::MacroDef`, simplify hygiene info
This PR
- adds a new variant `MacroDef` to `ast::ItemKind` for `macro_rules!` and eventually `macro` items,
- [breaking-change] forbids macro defs without a name (`macro_rules! { () => {} }` compiles today),
- removes `ast::MacroDef`, and
- no longer uses `Mark` and `Invocation` to identify and characterize macro definitions.
- We used to apply (at least) two `Mark`s to an expanded identifier's `SyntaxContext` -- the definition mark(s) and the expansion mark(s). We now only apply the latter.

This commit updates the version number to 1.17.0 as we're not on that version of
the nightly compiler, and at the same time this updates src/stage0.txt to
bootstrap from freshly minted beta compiler and beta Cargo.
Refactor the parser to consume token trees
This is groundwork for efficiently parsing attribute proc macro invocations, bang macro invocations, and `TokenStream`-based attributes and fragment matchers.
This improves parsing performance by 8-15% and expansion performance by 0-5% on a sampling of the compiler's crates.

Implement `#[proc_macro_attribute]`
This implements `#[proc_macro_attribute]` as described in https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1566
The following major (hopefully non-breaking) changes are included:
* Refactor `proc_macro::TokenStream` to use `syntax::tokenstream::TokenStream`.
* `proc_macro::tokenstream::TokenStream` no longer emits newlines between items, this can be trivially restored if desired
* `proc_macro::TokenStream::from_str` does not try to parse an item anymore, moved to `impl MultiItemModifier for CustomDerive` with more informative error message
* Implement `#[proc_macro_attribute]`, which expects functions of the kind `fn(TokenStream, TokenStream) -> TokenStream`
* Reactivated `#![feature(proc_macro)]` and gated `#[proc_macro_attribute]` under it
* `#![feature(proc_macro)]` and `#![feature(custom_attribute)]` are mutually exclusive
* adding `#![feature(proc_macro)]` makes the expansion pass assume that any attributes that are not built-in, or introduced by existing syntax extensions, are proc-macro attributes
* Fix `feature_gate::find_lang_feature_issue()` to not use `unwrap()`
* This change wasn't necessary for this PR, but it helped debugging a problem where I was using the wrong feature string.
* Move "completed feature gate checking" pass to after "name resolution" pass
* This was necessary for proper feature-gating of `#[proc_macro_attribute]` invocations when the `proc_macro` feature flag isn't set.

Merge ObjectSum and PolyTraitRef in AST/HIR + some other refactoring
`ObjectSum` and `PolyTraitRef` are the same thing (list of bounds), they exist separately only due to parser quirks. The second commit merges them.
The first commit replaces `Path` with `Ty` in (not yet supported) equality predicates. They are parsed as types anyway and arbitrary types can always be disguised as paths using aliases, so this doesn't add any new functionality.
The third commit uses `Vec` instead of `P<[T]>` in AST. AST is not immutable like HIR and `Vec`s are more convenient for it, unnecessary conversions are also avoided.
The last commit renames `parse_ty_sum` (which is used for parsing types in general) into `parse_ty`, and renames `parse_ty` (which is used restricted contexts where `+` is not permitted due to operator priorities or other reasons) into `parse_ty_no_plus`.
This is the first part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/39085#issuecomment-272743755 and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/39080 focused on data changes and mechanical renaming, I'll submit a PR with parser changes a bit later.

* Add support for `#[proc_macro]`
* Reactivate `proc_macro` feature and gate `#[proc_macro_attribute]` under it
* Have `#![feature(proc_macro)]` imply `#![feature(use_extern_macros)]`,
error on legacy import of proc macros via `#[macro_use]`
