Sized Hierarchy: Part I
This patch implements the non-const parts of rust-lang/rfcs#3729. It introduces two new traits to the standard library, `MetaSized` and `PointeeSized`. See the RFC for the rationale behind these traits and to discuss whether this change makes sense in the abstract.
These traits are unstable (as is their constness), so users cannot refer to them without opting-in to `feature(sized_hierarchy)`. These traits are not behind `cfg`s as this would make implementation unfeasible, there would simply be too many `cfg`s required to add the necessary bounds everywhere. So, like `Sized`, these traits are automatically implemented by the compiler.
RFC 3729 describes changes which are necessary to preserve backwards compatibility given the introduction of these traits, which are implemented and as follows:
- `?Sized` is rewritten as `MetaSized`
- `MetaSized` is added as a default supertrait for all traits w/out an explicit sizedness supertrait already.
There are no edition migrations implemented in this, as these are primarily required for the constness parts of the RFC and prior to stabilisation of this (and so will come in follow-up PRs alongside the const parts). All diagnostic output should remain the same (showing `?Sized` even if the compiler sees `MetaSized`) unless the `sized_hierarchy` feature is enabled.
Due to the use of unstable extern types in the standard library and rustc, some bounds in both projects have had to be relaxed already - this is unfortunate but unavoidable so that these extern types can continue to be used where they were before. Performing these relaxations in the standard library and rustc are desirable longer-term anyway, but some bounds are not as relaxed as they ideally would be due to the inability to relax `Deref::Target` (this will be investigated separately).
It is hoped that this is implemented such that it could be merged and these traits could exist "under the hood" without that being observable to the user (other than in any performance impact this has on the compiler, etc). Some details might leak through due to the standard library relaxations, but this has not been observed in test output.
**Notes:**
- Any commits starting with "upstream:" can be ignored, as these correspond to other upstream PRs that this is based on which have yet to be merged.
- This best reviewed commit-by-commit. I've attempted to make the implementation easy to follow and keep similar changes and test output updates together.
- Each commit has a short description describing its purpose.
- This patch is large but it's primarily in the test suite.
- I've worked on the performance of this patch and a few optimisations are implemented so that the performance impact is neutral-to-minor.
- `PointeeSized` is a different name from the RFC just to make it more obvious that it is different from `std::ptr::Pointee` but all the names are yet to be bikeshed anyway.
- `@nikomatsakis` has confirmed [that this can proceed as an experiment from the t-lang side](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/435869-project-goals/topic/SVE.20and.20SME.20on.20AArch64.20.28goals.23270.29/near/506196491)

This is used to replace the previous downcasting of executed steps, which wasn't very scalable. In addition to tests, we could also use the metadata e.g. for tracing.
I went back 20 *stable* versions of Rust and I couldn't find this flag actually being used. Despite some of our CI workflows actually set this flag (!).
Set elf e_flags on ppc64 targets according to abi
(This PR contains the non user-facing changes of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/142321)
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/85589 by making sure that ld.lld errors out instead of generating a broken binary.
Basically the problem is that ld.lld assumes that all ppc64 object files with e_flags=0 are object files which use the ELFv2 ABI (this here is the check https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/lld/ELF/Arch/PPC64.cpp#L639).
This pull request sets the correct e_flags to indicate the used ABI so ld.lld errors out when encountering ELFv1 ABI files instead of generating a broken binary.
For example compare code generation for this program (file name ``min.rs``):
```rust
#![feature(no_core, lang_items, repr_simd)]
#![crate_type = "bin"]
#![no_core]
#![no_main]
#[lang = "sized"]
trait Sized {}
#[lang = "copy"]
trait Copy {}
#[lang = "panic_cannot_unwind"]
pub fn panic() -> ! {
loop {}
}
pub fn my_rad_unmangled_function() {
loop {}
}
pub fn my_rad_function() {
loop {}
}
#[no_mangle]
pub fn _start() {
my_rad_unmangled_function();
my_rad_function();
}
```
Compile with ``rustc --target=powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu -C linker=ld.lld -C relocation-model=static min.rs``
Before change:
```
$ llvm-objdump -d min
Disassembly of section .text:
000000001001030c <.text>:
...
10010334: 7c 08 02 a6 mflr 0
10010338: f8 21 ff 91 stdu 1, -112(1)
1001033c: f8 01 00 80 std 0, 128(1)
10010340: 48 02 00 39 bl 0x10030378 <_ZN3min25my_rad_unmangled_function17h7471c49af58039f5E>
10010344: 60 00 00 00 nop
10010348: 48 02 00 49 bl 0x10030390 <_ZN3min15my_rad_function17h37112b8fd1008c9bE>
1001034c: 60 00 00 00 nop
...
```
The branch instructions ``bl 0x10030378`` and ``bl 0x10030390`` are jumping into the ``.opd`` section which is data. That is a broken binary (because fixing those branches is the task of the linker).
After change:
```
error: linking with `ld.lld` failed: exit status: 1
|
= note: "ld.lld" "/tmp/rustcNYKZCS/symbols.o" "<1 object files omitted>" "--as-needed" "-L" "/tmp/rustcNYKZCS/raw-dylibs" "-Bdynamic" "--eh-frame-hdr" "-z" "noexecstack" "-L" "<sysroot>/lib/rustlib/powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib" "-o" "min" "--gc-sections" "-z" "relro" "-z" "now"
= note: some arguments are omitted. use `--verbose` to show all linker arguments
= note: ld.lld: error: /tmp/rustcNYKZCS/symbols.o: ABI version 1 is not supported
```
Which is correct because ld.lld doesn't support ELFv1 ABI.
Revert overeager warning for misuse of `--print native-static-libs`
In a PR to emit warnings on misuse of `--print native-static-libs`, we did not consider the matter of composing parts of build systems. If you are not directly invoking rustc, it can be difficult to know when you will in fact compile a staticlib, so making sure uses `--print native-static-lib` correctly can be just a nuisance.
Next cycle we can reland a slightly more narrowly focused variant or one that focuses on `--emit` instead of `--print native-static-libs`. But in its current state, I am not sure the warning is very useful.
Make sure to propagate result from `visit_expr_fields`
We weren't propagating the `ControlFlow::Break` out of a struct field, which means that the solution implemented in rust-lang/rust#130443 didn't work for nested fields.
Fixesrust-lang/rust#142525.

Reject union default field values
Fixesrust-lang/rust#142555.
The [`default_field_values` RFC][rfc] does not specify that default field values may be used on `union`s, and it's not clear how default field values may be used with `union`s without an design extension to the RFC. So, for now, reject trying to use default field values with `union`s.
### Review notes
- The first commit adds the `union` with default field values test case to `tests/ui/structs/default-field-values/failures.rs`, where `union`s with default field values are currently accepted.
- The second commit rejects trying to supply default field values to `union` definitions.
- When `default_field_values` feature gate is disabled, we show the feature gate error when the user tries to write `union`s with default field values. When the feature gate is enabled, we reject this usage with
> unions cannot have default field values
``@rustbot`` label: +F-default_field_values

Refine run-make test ignores due to unpredictable `i686-pc-windows-gnu` unwind mechanism
Closesrust-lang/rust#128911. This PR *re-enables* the `dump-ice-to-disk` test and the unstable feature usage metrics tests for {x86_64,i686} Windows MSVC hosts and x86_64 Windows GNU host. I'll keep an eye out for these tests, and will broaden the ignores if this test is still flaky on not just `i686-pc-windows-gnu`.

Manually invalidate caches in SimplifyCfg.
The current `SimplifyCfg` pass unconditionally invalidates CFG caches. This is unfortunate if there are no modifications that require this invalidation.
std: refactor explanation of `NonNull`
Fixesrust-lang/rust#141933
I cut out the excessive explanation and used an example to explain how to maintain invariance, but I think what is quoted in the *rust reference* in the document needs to be added with a more layman's explanation and example.
