forego caching for all participants in cycles, apart from root node
This is a targeted fix for #60010, which uncovered a pretty bad failure of our caching strategy in the face of coinductive cycles. The problem is explained in the comment in the PR on the new field, `in_cycle`, but I'll reproduce it here:
> Starts out as false -- if, during evaluation, we encounter a
> cycle, then we will set this flag to true for all participants
> in the cycle (apart from the "head" node). These participants

I'm not sure what the impact of this fix will be in terms of existing crates or performance: we were accepting incorrect code before, so there will perhaps be some regressions, and we are now caching less.
As the comment above notes, we could do a lot better than this fix, but that would involve more invasive rewrites. I thought it best to start with something simple.

Use `Symbol` more
A `Symbol` can be equated with a string (e.g. `&str`). This involves a
TLS lookup to get the chars (and a Mutex lock in a parallel compiler)
and then a char-by-char comparison. This functionality is convenient but
avoids one of the main benefits of `Symbol`s, which is fast equality
comparisons.
This PR removes the `Symbol`/string equality operations, forcing a lot
of existing string occurrences to become `Symbol`s. Fortunately, these
are almost all static strings (many are attribute names) and we can add
static `Symbol`s as necessary, and very little extra interning occurs.
The benefits are (a) a slight speedup (possibly greater in a parallel
compiler), and (b) the code is a lot more principled about `Symbol` use.
The main downside is verbosity, particularly with more `use
syntax::symbol::symbols` items.

This shouldn't be possible any more, but if it does happen, emit an
error rather than maybe panicking later when NLL finds a the ReScope.
Impl trait in bindings is sufficiently broken that I don't think this
breaks anything that works for it.
Keep original literal tokens in AST
The original literal tokens (`token::Lit`) are kept in AST until lowering to HIR.
The tokens are kept together with their lowered "semantic" representation (`ast::LitKind`), so the size of `ast::Lit` is increased (this also increases the size of meta-item structs used for processing built-in attributes).
However, the size of `ast::Expr` stays the same.
The intent is to remove the "semantic" representation from AST eventually and keep literals as tokens until lowering to HIR (at least), and I'm going to work on that, but it would be good to land this sooner to unblock progress on the [lexer refactoring](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/59706).
Fixes a part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/43081 (literal tokens that are passed to proc macros are always precise, including hexadecimal numbers, strings with their original escaping, etc)
Fixes a part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/60495 (everything except for proc macro API doesn't need escaping anymore)
This also allows to eliminate a certain hack from the lexer (https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/131828-t-compiler/topic/pretty-printing.20comments/near/165005357).

Fix async desugaring providing wrong input to procedural macros.
Fixes#60674.
This PR fixes a minor oversight introduced by #60535 where unused `mut` binding modes were removed from the arguments to an `async fn` (as they were added to the statement that we insert into the closure body). However, this meant that the input to procedural macros was incorrect. This removes that and instead fixes the `unused_mut` error that it avoided.

This commit removes the modification of the mutability of simple
bindings. While the mutability isn't used, it is important that it is
kept so that the input to procedural macros matches what the user wrote.
This commit also modifies the span of the binding mode so that it is
considered a compiler desugaring and won't be linted against for being
unused..
cleanup: Remove `DefIndexAddressSpace`
The scheme with two address spaces for `DefIndex` was needed in the past, but apparently not needed anymore (after removing `DefId`s from locals and `HirId`-ification).
Adds support for .await under the existing async_await feature gate.
Moves macro-like await! syntax to the await_macro feature gate.
Removes support for `await` as a non-keyword under the `async_await`
feature.
