This allows allocating `Expr`s into a dropless arena, which is useful
for using length prefixed thing slices in HIR, since these can only be
allocated in the dropless arena and not in a typed arena. This is
something I'm working on.
Remove `identity_future` indirection
This was previously needed because the indirection used to hide some unexplained lifetime errors, which it turned out were related to the `min_choice` algorithm.
Removing the indirection also solves a couple of cycle errors, large moves and makes async blocks support the `#[track_caller]`annotation.

Move format_args!() into AST (and expand it during AST lowering)
Implements https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/541
This moves FormatArgs from rustc_builtin_macros to rustc_ast_lowering. For now, the end result is the same. But this allows for future changes to do smarter things with format_args!(). It also allows Clippy to directly access the ast::FormatArgs, making things a lot easier.
This change turns the format args types into lang items. The builtin macro used to refer to them by their path. After this change, the path is no longer relevant, making it easier to make changes in `core`.
This updates clippy to use the new language items, but this doesn't yet make clippy use the ast::FormatArgs structure that's now available. That should be done after this is merged.
Remove `token::Lit` from `ast::MetaItemLit`.
Currently `ast::MetaItemLit` represents the literal kind twice. This PR removes that redundancy. Best reviewed one commit at a time.

Simplify attribute handling in rustc_ast_lowering
Given that attributes is stored in a separate BTreeMap, it's not necessary to pass it in when constructing `hir::Expr`. We can just construct `hir::Expr` and then call `self.lower_attrs` later if it needs attributes.
As most desugaring code don't use attributes, this allows some code cleanup.
Replaces using `ResumeTy` / `get_context` in favor of using `&'static mut Context<'_>`.
Usage of the `'static` lifetime here is technically "cheating", and replaces
the raw pointer in `ResumeTy` and the `get_context` fn that pulls the
correct lifetimes out of thin air.

This is required to distinguish between cooked and raw byte string
literals in an `ast::LitKind`, without referring to an adjacent
`token::Lit`. It's a prerequisite for the next commit.
This makes sure that ICEing because of def ids created outside of ast lowering will be able to produce a query backtrace and not cause a double panic because of trying to call the `def_span` query
There is code for converting `Attribute` (syntactic) to `MetaItem`
(semantic). There is also code for the reverse direction. The reverse
direction isn't really necessary; it's currently only used when
generating attributes, e.g. in `derive` code.
This commit adds some new functions for creating `Attributes`s directly,
without involving `MetaItem`s: `mk_attr_word`, `mk_attr_name_value_str`,
`mk_attr_nested_word`, and
`ExtCtxt::attr_{word,name_value_str,nested_word}`.
These new methods replace the old functions for creating `Attribute`s:
`mk_attr_inner`, `mk_attr_outer`, and `ExtCtxt::attribute`. Those
functions took `MetaItem`s as input, and relied on many other functions
that created `MetaItems`, which are also removed: `mk_name_value_item`,
`mk_list_item`, `mk_word_item`, `mk_nested_word_item`,
`{MetaItem,MetaItemKind,NestedMetaItem}::token_trees`,
`MetaItemKind::attr_args`, `MetaItemLit::{from_lit_kind,to_token}`,
`ExtCtxt::meta_word`.
Overall this cuts more than 100 lines of code and makes thing simpler.
Separate lifetime ident from lifetime resolution in HIR
Drive-by: change how suggested generic args are computed.

Avoid `GenFuture` shim when compiling async constructs
Previously, async constructs would be lowered to "normal" generators, with an additional `from_generator` / `GenFuture` shim in between to convert from `Generator` to `Future`.
The compiler will now special-case these generators internally so that async constructs will *directly* implement `Future` without the need to go through the `from_generator` / `GenFuture` shim.
The primary motivation for this change was hiding this implementation detail in stack traces and debuginfo, but it can in theory also help the optimizer as there is less abstractions to see through.

Given this demo code:
```rust
pub async fn a(arg: u32) -> Backtrace {
let bt = b().await;
let _arg = arg;
bt
}
pub async fn b() -> Backtrace {
Backtrace::force_capture()
}
```
I would get the following with the latest stable compiler (on Windows):
```
4: async_codegen:🅱️:async_fn$0
at .\src\lib.rs:10
5: core::future::from_generator::impl$1::poll<enum2$<async_codegen:🅱️:async_fn_env$0> >
at /rustc/897e37553bba8b42751c67658967889d11ecd120\library\core\src\future\mod.rs:91

```
whereas now I get a much cleaner stack trace:
```

at .\src\lib.rs:10
4: async_codegen:🅰️:async_fn$0
at .\src\lib.rs:4
