Over in Zed we've noticed that loading crates for a large-ish workspace can take almost 200ms. We've pinned it down to how rustc searches for paths, as it performs a linear search over the list of candidate paths. In our case the candidate list had about 20k entries which we had to iterate over for each dependency being loaded.
This commit introduces a simple FilesIndex that's just a sorted Vec under the hood. Since crates are looked up by both prefix and suffix, we perform a range search on said Vec (which constraints the search space based on prefix) and follow up with a linear scan of entries with matching suffixes.
FilesIndex is also pre-filtered before any queries are performed using available target information; query prefixes/sufixes are based on the target we are compiling for, so we can remove entries that can never match up front.
Overall, this commit brings down build time for us in dev scenarios by about 6%.
100ms might not seem like much, but this is a constant cost that each of our workspace crates has to pay, even when said crate is miniscule.
Fixed the `private-dependency` bug
Fixed the private-dependency bug: If the directly dependent crate is loaded last and is not configured with `--extern`, it may be incorrectly set to `private-dependency`

rustc-metadata: Store crate name in self-profile of metadata_register_crate
When profiling a build of Zed, I found myself in need of names of crates that take the longest to register in downstream crates.
Rework `untranslatable_diagnostic` lint
Currently it only checks calls to functions marked with `#[rustc_lint_diagnostics]`. This PR changes it to check calls to any function with an `impl Into<{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage>` parameter. This greatly improves its coverage and doesn't rely on people remembering to add `#[rustc_lint_diagnostics]`. It also lets us add `#[rustc_lint_diagnostics]` to a number of functions that don't have an `impl Into<{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage>`, such as `Diag::span`.

Currently it only checks calls to functions marked with
`#[rustc_lint_diagnostics]`. This commit changes it to check calls to
any function with an `impl Into<{D,Subd}iagMessage>` parameter. This
greatly improves its coverage and doesn't rely on people remembering to
add `#[rustc_lint_diagnostics]`.
The commit also adds `#[allow(rustc::untranslatable_diagnostic)`]
attributes to places that need it that are caught by the improved lint.
These places that might be easy to convert to translatable diagnostics.
Finally, it also:
- Expands and corrects some comments.
- Does some minor formatting improvements.
- Adds missing `DecorateLint` cases to
`tests/ui-fulldeps/internal-lints/diagnostics.rs`.
Fix duplicated path in the "not found dylib" error
While working on the gcc backend, I couldn't figure out why I had this error:
```
error: couldn't load codegen backend /checkout/compiler/rustc_codegen_gcc/target/release/librustc_codegen_gcc.so/checkout/compiler/rustc_codegen_gcc/target/release/librustc_codegen_gcc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
```
As you can see, the path is duplicated for some reason. After investigating a bit more, I realized that `libloading::Error::LoadLibraryExW` starts with the path of the not found dylib, making it appear twice in our error afterward (because we do render it like this: `{path}{err}`, and since the `err` starts with the path...).
Thanks to `````@bjorn3````` for linking me to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/121392. :)
Existing names for values of this type are `sess`, `parse_sess`,
`parse_session`, and `ps`. `sess` is particularly annoying because
that's also used for `Session` values, which are often co-located, and
it can be difficult to know which type a value named `sess` refers to.
(That annoyance is the main motivation for this change.) `psess` is nice
and short, which is good for a name used this much.
The commit also renames some `parse_sess_created` values as
`psess_created`.
Unify dylib loading between proc macros and codegen backends
As bonus this makes the errors when failing to load a proc macro more informative to match the backend loading errors. In addition it makes it slightly easier to patch rustc to work on platforms that don't support dynamic linking like wasm.
Currently `has_errors` excludes lint errors. This commit changes it to
include lint errors.
The motivation for this is that for most places it doesn't matter
whether lint errors are included or not. But there are multiple places
where they must be includes, and only one place where they must not be
included. So it makes sense for `has_errors` to do the thing that fits
the most situations, and the new `has_errors_excluding_lint_errors`
method in the one exceptional place.
The same change is made for `err_count`. Annoyingly, this requires the
introduction of `err_count_excluding_lint_errs` for one place, to
preserve existing error printing behaviour. But I still think the change
is worthwhile overall.

They're not used in `rustc_session`, and `rustc_metadata` is a more
obvious location.
`MetadataLoader` was originally put into `rustc_session` in #41565 to
avoid a dependency on LLVM, but things have changed a lot since then and
that's no longer relevant, e.g. `rustc_codegen_llvm` depends on
`rustc_metadata`.
Support #[global_allocator] without the allocator shim
This makes it possible to use liballoc/libstd in combination with `--emit obj` if you use `#[global_allocator]`. This is what rust-for-linux uses right now and systemd may use in the future. Currently they have to depend on the exact implementation of the allocator shim to create one themself as `--emit obj` doesn't create an allocator shim.
Note that currently the allocator shim also defines the oom error handler, which is normally required too. Once `#![feature(default_alloc_error_handler)]` becomes the only option, this can be avoided. In addition when using only fallible allocator methods and either `--cfg no_global_oom_handling` for liballoc (like rust-for-linux) or `--gc-sections` no references to the oom error handler will exist.
To avoid this feature being insta-stable, you will have to define `__rust_no_alloc_shim_is_unstable` to avoid linker errors.
(Labeling this with both T-compiler and T-lang as it originally involved both an implementation detail and had an insta-stable user facing change. As noted above, the `__rust_no_alloc_shim_is_unstable` symbol requirement should prevent unintended dependence on this unstable feature.)
