rustc_target reexports a lot of things that are in rustc_abi, but
that will be over soon and now is probably a good time to switch.
Uses of rustc_target remain where they inquire about the target tuple.
Remove `#[macro_use] extern crate tracing` from rustdoc and rustfmt
A follow-up to #129767 and earlier PRs doing this for `rustc_*` crates.

It was barely used, and the places that used it are actually clearer
without it since they were often undoing some of its work. This also
avoids an unnecessary clone of the receiver type and removes a layer of
logical indirection in the code.
Rustdoc often has to special-case `Self` because it is, well, a special
type of generic parameter (although it also behaves as an alias in
concrete impls). Instead of spreading this special-casing throughout the
code base, create a new variant of the `clean::Type` enum that is for
`Self` types.
This is a refactoring that has almost no impact on rustdoc's behavior,
except that `&Self`, `(Self,)`, `&[Self]`, and other similar occurrences
of `Self` no longer link to the wrapping type (reference primitive,
tuple primitive, etc.) as regular generics do. I felt this made more
sense since users would expect `Self` to link to the containing trait or
aliased type (though those are usually expanded), not the primitive that
is wrapping it. For an example of the change, see the docs for
`std::alloc::Allocator::by_ref`.
`SelfTy` makes it sound like it is literally the `Self` type, whereas in
fact it may be `&Self` or other types. Plus, I want to use the name
`SelfTy` for a new variant of `clean::Type`. Having both causes
resolution conflicts or at least confusion.
This is an alternative to ee6459d652.
That is, it fixes the issue that affects the very long type names
in https://docs.rs/async-stripe/0.31.0/stripe/index.html#structs.
This is, necessarily, a pile of nasty heuristics.
We need to balance a few issues:
- Sometimes, there's no real word break.
For example, `BTreeMap` should be `BTree<wbr>Map`,
not `B<wbr>Tree<wbr>Map`.
- Sometimes, there's a legit word break,
but the name is tiny and the HTML overhead isn't worth it.
For example, if we're typesetting `TyCtx`,
writing `Ty<wbr>Ctx` would have an HTML overhead of 50%.
Line breaking inside it makes no sense.
Clean up a few minor refs in `format!` macro, as it has a performance cost. Apparently the compiler is unable to inline `format!("{}", &variable)`, and does a run-time double-reference instead (format macro already does one level referencing). Inlining format args prevents accidental `&` misuse.
Rename HIR `TypeBinding` to `AssocItemConstraint` and related cleanup
Rename `hir::TypeBinding` and `ast::AssocConstraint` to `AssocItemConstraint` and update all items and locals using the old terminology.
Motivation: The terminology *type binding* is extremely outdated. "Type bindings" not only include constraints on associated *types* but also on associated *constants* (feature `associated_const_equality`) and on RPITITs of associated *functions* (feature `return_type_notation`). Hence the word *item* in the new name. Furthermore, the word *binding* commonly refers to a mapping from a binder/identifier to a "value" for some definition of "value". Its use in "type binding" made sense when equality constraints (e.g., `AssocTy = Ty`) were the only kind of associated item constraint. Nowadays however, we also have *associated type bounds* (e.g., `AssocTy: Bound`) for which the term *binding* doesn't make sense.
---
Old terminology (HIR, rustdoc):
```
`TypeBinding`: (associated) type binding
├── `Constraint`: associated type bound
└── `Equality`: (associated) equality constraint (?)
├── `Ty`: (associated) type binding
└── `Const`: associated const equality (constraint)
```
Old terminology (AST, abbrev.):
```
`AssocConstraint`
├── `Bound`
└── `Equality`
├── `Ty`
└── `Const`
```
New terminology (AST, HIR, rustdoc):
```
`AssocItemConstraint`: associated item constraint
├── `Bound`: associated type bound
└── `Equality`: associated item equality constraint OR associated item binding (for short)
├── `Ty`: associated type equality constraint OR associated type binding (for short)
└── `Const`: associated const equality constraint OR associated const binding (for short)
```
r? compiler-errors
If a const function is unstable overall (and thus, in all circumstances
I know of, also const-unstable), we should show the option to use it as
const. You need to enable a feature to use the function at all anyway.
If the function is stabilized without also being const-stabilized, then
we do not show the const keyword and instead show "const: unstable" in
the version info.
It makes the link easier to use in cases in which
the path of the page where it will be embedded is not
known beforehand such as when we generate impls
dynamically from `register_type_impls` method in
`main.js`
Earlier for local primitives we would generate a path
that was relative to the current page depth passed in `cx.current`
. e.g if the current page was `std::simd::prelude::Simd` the
generated path would be `../../primitive.<prim>.html` After this
change the path will first take you to the the wesite root and add
the crate name. e.g. for `std::simd::prelude::Simd` the path now
will be `../../../std/primitive.<prim>.html`
