Only build help popup when it's really needed
When working on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/79985, I realized that the help popup was built even when it wasn't needed. This PR only makes the help popup to be built when required.

rustdoc: allow list syntax for #[doc(alias)] attributes
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/81205.
It now allows to have:
```rust
#[doc(alias = "x")]
// and:
#[doc(alias("y", "z"))]
```

ast/hir: Rename field-related structures
I always forget what `ast::Field` and `ast::StructField` mean despite working with AST for long time, so this PR changes the naming to less confusing and more consistent.
- `StructField` -> `FieldDef` ("field definition")
- `Field` -> `ExprField` ("expression field", not "field expression")
- `FieldPat` -> `PatField` ("pattern field", not "field pattern")
Various visiting and other methods working with the fields are renamed correspondingly too.
The second commit reduces the size of `ExprKind` by boxing fields of `ExprKind::Struct` in preparation for https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/80080.
Don't warn about old rustdoc lint names (temporarily)
Since https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/80527, rustdoc users have an unpleasant situation: they can either use the new tool lint names (`rustdoc::non_autolinks`) or they can use the old names (`non_autolinks`). If they use the tool lints, they get a hard error on stable compilers, because rustc rejects all tool names it doesn't recognize (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/66079#issuecomment-788589193). If they use the old name, they get a warning to rename the lint to the new name. The only way to compile without warnings is to add `#[allow(renamed_removed_lints)]`, which defeats the whole point of the change: we *want* people to switch to the new name.
To avoid people silencing the lint and never migrating to the tool lint, this avoids warning about the old name, while still allowing you to use the new name. Once the new `rustdoc` tool name makes it to the stable channel, we can change these lints to warn again.
This adds the new lint functions `register_alias` and `register_ignored` - I didn't see an existing way to do this.

No background for code in portability snippets
This better matches the appearance of this kind of snippet in the full
item view and is less jarring to read due to repeated
foreground-background changes.


There should be no observable changes to the ayu theme.
Fall-back to sans-serif if Arial is not available
Otherwise on systems where Arial is not available the UA will
fallback to a serif font, rather than a sans-serif one.
This is especially relevant on acessibility-conscious setups (such as is
mine) that have web-fonts disabled and a limited set of fonts available
on the system.

StructField -> FieldDef ("field definition")

FieldPat -> PatField ("pattern field", not "field pattern")
Also rename visiting and other methods working on them.

Prevent JS error when there is no dependency or other crate documented (or --disable-per-crate-search has been used)
When there is only one crate, the dropdown is removed, creating an error (that you can see pretty easily on docs.rs for example).

Rename `rustdoc` to `rustdoc::all`
When rustdoc lints were changed to be tool lints, the `rustdoc` group was removed, leading to spurious warnings like
```
warning: unknown lint: `rustdoc`
```
The lint group still worked when rustdoc ran, since rustdoc added the group itself.
This renames the group to `rustdoc::all` for consistency with `clippy::all` and the rest of the rustdoc lints.
Follow-up to #80527.

Basically, it doesn't make sense to generate those things every time
you search. That generates a bunch of stuff for the GC to clean up,
when, if the user wanted to do another search, it would just need
to re-do it again.
Every time splice() is called, another temporary object is created.
This version, which uses plain objects as a sort of Hash Bag,
should only produce one temporary object each time it's called.
There is no reason for this function to return an object,
since it is always used for getting at the name anyhow.
It's used in the inner loop for some popular functions,
so we want to avoid allocating in it.
rustdoc: tweak the search index format
This essentially switches search-index.js from a "array of struct" to a "struct of array" format, like this:
{
"doc": "Crate documentation",
"t": [ 1, 1, 2, 3, ... ],
"n": [ "Something", "SomethingElse", "whatever", "do_stuff", ... ],
"q": [ "a::b", "", "", "", ... ],
"d": [ "A Struct That Does Something", "Another Struct", "a function", "another function", ... ],
"i": [ 0, 0, 1, 1, ... ],
"f": [ null, null, [], [], ... ],
"p": ...,
"a": ...
}
So `{ty: 1, name: "Something", path: "a::b", desc: "A Struct That Does Something", parent_idx: 0, search_type: null}` is the first item.
This makes the uncompressed version smaller, but it really shows on the compressed version:
notriddle:rust$ wc -c new-search-index1.52.0.js
2622427 new-search-index1.52.0.js
notriddle:rust$ wc -c old-search-index1.52.0.js
2725046 old-search-index1.52.0.js
notriddle:rust$ gzip new-search-index1.52.0.js
notriddle:rust$ gzip old-search-index1.52.0.js
notriddle:rust$ wc -c new-search-index1.52.0.js.gz
239385 new-search-index1.52.0.js.gz
notriddle:rust$ wc -c old-search-index1.52.0.js.gz
296328 old-search-index1.52.0.js.gz
That's a 4% improvement on the uncompressed version (fewer `[]`, and also changing `null` to `0` in the parent_idx list), and 20% improvement after gzipping it, thanks to putting like-typed data next to each other. Any compression algorithm based on a sliding window will probably show this kind of improvement.

Remove `masked_crates` from `clean::Crate`
Previously, `masked_crates` existed both on `Cache` and on
`clean::Crate`. During cache population, the `clean::Crate` version was
`take`n and moved to `Cache`.
This change removes the version on `clean::Crate` and instead directly
mutates `Cache.masked_crates` to initialize it. This has the advantage
of avoiding duplication and avoiding unnecessary allocation, as well as
making the flow of information through rustdoc less confusing.
The one downside I see is that `clean::utils::krate()` now uses the side
effect of mutating `DocContext.cache` instead of returning the data
directly, but it already mutated the `Cache` for other things (e.g.,
`deref_trait_did`) so it's not really new behavior. Also,
`clean::utils::krate()` is only called once (and is meant to only be
called once since it performs expensive and potentially destructive
operations) so the mutation shouldn't be an issue.

rustdoc: Remove redundant enableSearchInput function
enableSearchInput was called from two places:
- setupSearchLoader
- addSearchOptions, which is itself called from setupSearchLoader only
This commit can safely get rid of the addSearchOptions calls entirely, and since the setupSearchLoader call is immediately preceded by other method calls on search_input, there's no need to check if it's set.
Store HIR attributes in a side table
Same idea as #72015 but for attributes.
The objective is to reduce incr-comp invalidations due to modified attributes.
Notably, those due to modified doc comments.
Implementation:
- collect attributes during AST->HIR lowering, in `LocalDefId -> ItemLocalId -> &[Attributes]` nested tables;
- access the attributes through a `hir_owner_attrs` query;
- local refactorings to use this access;
- remove `attrs` from HIR data structures one-by-one.
Change in behaviour:
- the HIR visitor traverses all attributes at once instead of parent-by-parent;
- attribute arrays are sometimes duplicated: for statements and variant constructors;
- as a consequence, attributes are marked as used after unused-attribute lint emission to avoid duplicate lints.
~~Current bug: the lint level is not correctly applied in `std::backtrace_rs`, triggering an unused attribute warning on `#![no_std]`. I welcome suggestions.~~
