Address inconsistency in using "is" with "declared here"
"is" was generally used for NLL diagnostics, but not other diagnostics. Using "is" makes the diagnostics sound more natural and readable, so it seems sensible to commit to them throughout.

Clean up some diagnostics by making them more consistent
In general:
- Diagnostic should start with a lowercase letter.
- Diagnostics should not end with a full stop.
- Ellipses contain three dots.
- Backticks should encode Rust code.
I also reworded a couple of messages to make them read more clearly.
It might be sensible to create a style guide for diagnostics, so these informal conventions are written down somewhere, after which we could audit the existing diagnostics.

Those annotation are silently ignored rather than begin validated
against compiler output. Update them before validation is enabled,
to avoid test failures.
Building Servo with a recent Nightly produces:
```rust
warning: use of deprecated attribute `plugin`: compiler plugins are deprecated. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/29597
--> components/script/lib.rs:14:1

14 | #![plugin(script_plugins)]
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: remove this attribute

= note: `#[warn(deprecated)]` on by default
```
First, linking to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/29597 is not ideal
since there is pretty much no discussion there of the deprecation
and what can be used instead.
This PR changes the link to the deprecation PR which does have more discussion.
Second, the “remove this attribute” suggestion is rather unhelpful.
Just because a feature is deprecated doesn’t mean that simply removing its use
without a replacement is acceptable.
In the case of custom lint, there is no replacement available.
Prefixing a message with “help:” when telling users that they’re screwed
honestly feels disrespectful.
This PR also changes the message to be more factual.
resolve: Block expansion of a derive container until all its derives are resolved
So, it turns out there's one more reason to block expansion of a `#[derive]` container until all the derives inside it are resolved, beside `Copy` (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/63248).
The set of derive helper attributes registered by derives in the container also has to be known before the derives themselves are expanded, otherwise it may be too late (see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/63468#issuecomment-524550872 and the `#[stable_hasher]`-related test failures in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/63468).
So, we stop our attempts to unblock the container earlier, as soon as the `Copy` status is known, and just block until all its derives are resolved.
After all the derives are resolved we immediately go and process their helper attributes in the item, without delaying it until expansion of the individual derives.

Also mark derive helpers as known as a part of the derive container's expansion instead of expansion of the derives themselves which may happen too late.
add rustc_private as a proper language feature gate
At the moment, `rustc_private` as a (library) feature exists by
accident: `char::is_xid_start`, `char::is_xid_continue` methods in
libcore define it.
cc https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/131828-t-compiler/topic/How.20to.20declare.20new.20langauge.20feature.3F
I don't know if this is at all reasonable, but at least tests seem to pass locally. That probably means that we can remove/rename to something more resonable the feature in libcore in the next release?
