expand: Do not ICE when a legacy AST-based macro attribute produces and empty expression
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/80251
The reported error is the same as for `let _ = #[cfg(FALSE)] EXPR;`
This is step 2 towards fixing #77548.
In the codegen and codegen-units test suites, the `//` comment markers
were kept in order not to affect any source locations. This is because
these tests cannot be automatically `--bless`ed.
format macro argument parsing fix
When the character next to `{}` is "shifted" (when mapping a byte index
in the format string to span) we should avoid shifting the span end
index, so first map the index of `}` to span, then bump the span,
instead of first mapping the next byte index to a span (which causes
bumping the end span too much).
Regression test added.

Some newcomers are confused by the behavior of tail expressions,
interpreting that "leaving out the `;` makes it the return value".
To help them go in the right direction, suggest using `return` instead
when applicable.
It can be useful to do some computation in `assert!` format arguments, in order to get better error messages. For example:
```rust
assert!(
some_condition,
"The state is invalid. Details: {}",
expensive_call_to_get_debugging_info(),
);
```
It seems like `assert!` only evaluates the format arguments if the assertion fails, which is useful but doesn't appear to be documented anywhere. This PR documents the behavior and adds some tests.
This extends the `panic_fmt` lint to warn for all cases where the first
argument cannot be interpreted as a format string, as will happen in
Rust 2021.
It suggests to add `"{}", ` to format the message as a string. In the
case of `std::panic!()`, it also suggests the recently stabilized
`std::panic::panic_any()` function as an alternative.
It renames the lint to `non_fmt_panic` to match the lint naming
guidelines.
Part of #68490.
Care has been taken to leave the old consts where appropriate, for testing backcompat regressions, module shadowing, etc. The intrinsics docs were accidentally referring to some methods on f64 as std::f64, which I changed due to being contrary with how we normally disambiguate the shadow module from the primitive. In one other place I changed std::u8 to std::ops since it was just testing path handling in macros.
For places which have legitimate uses of the old consts, deprecated attributes have been optimistically inserted. Although currently unnecessary, they exist to emphasize to any future deprecation effort the necessity of these specific symbols and prevent them from being accidentally removed.
