Remove `ast::Guard`
With the introduction of `ast::ExprKind::Let` in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/60861, the `ast::Guard` structure is now redundant in terms of representing [`if let` guards](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/51114) in AST since it can be represented by `ExprKind::Let` syntactically. Therefore, we remove `ast::Guard` here.
However, we keep `hir::Guard` because the semantic representation is a different matter and this story is more unclear right now (might involve `goto 'arm` in HIR or something...).

Special-case literals in `parse_bottom_expr`.
This makes parsing faster, particularly for code with large constants,
for two reasons:
- it skips all the keyword comparisons for literals;
- it skips the allocation done by the `mk_expr` call in
`parse_literal_maybe_minus`.

Allow attributes in formal function parameters
Implements https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/60406.
This is my first contribution to the compiler and since this is a large and complex project, I am not fully aware of the consequences of the changes I have made.
**TODO**
- [x] Forbid some built-in attributes.
- [x] Expand cfg/cfg_attr
lexer: Disallow bare CR in raw byte strings
Handles bare CR ~but doesn't translate `\r\n` to `\n` yet in raw strings yet~ and translates CRLF to LF in raw strings.
As a side-note I think it'd be good to change the `unescape_` to return plain iterators to reduce some boilerplate (e.g. `has_error` could benefit from collecting `Result<T>` and aborting early on errors) but will do that separately, unless I missed something here that prevents it.
@matklad @petrochenkov thoughts?
This makes parsing faster, particularly for code with large constants,
for two reasons:
- it skips all the keyword comparisons for literals;
- it replaces the unnecessary `parse_literal_maybe_minus` call with
`parse_lit`, avoiding an unnecessary allocation via `mk_expr`.
It was commented out as part of
8a8e497ae7.
Done probably by accident, since the code in question was moved to a
match arm, along with newly introduced logic to detect bare CRs in raw
strings.
parser: Remove `Deref` impl from `Parser`
Follow up to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/61541
You have to write `self.token.span` instead of `self.span` in the parser now, which is not nice, but not too bad either, I guess.
Not sure.
Probably still better than people using both and being confused about the definition point of `span`.
