When a parse error occurs on a block, the parser will recover and create
a block with the statements collected until that point. Now a flag
stating that a recovery has been performed in this block is propagated
so that the type checker knows that the type of the block (which will be
identified as `()`) shouldn't be checked against the expectation to
reduce the amount of irrelevant diagnostic errors shown to the user.
First some background:
To the compiler, the following two signatures in the trait vs the impl
are the same.
```rust
trait Foo {
fn foo(&self, &impl Debug);
}
impl Foo for () {
fn foo<U: Debug>(&self, x: &U) { ... }
}
```
We do not want to allow this, and so we add a new error and check.
The check just tests that all paramters 'syntheticness' match up. As
during collection, the impl Trait parameters are transformed into
anonymous synthetic generics.
Furthermore, causes a check for unused type parameters to be skipped in
check_bounds_are_used if there is already a TyError. Thus, an unused
input will not trigger `type parameter unused` errors.
Update the one test that checked for this error in the case of
a TyError.
When encountering a let binding type error, attempt to parse as
initializer instead. If successful, it is likely just a typo:
```rust
fn main() {
let x: Vec::with_capacity(10);
}
```
```
error: expected type, found `10`
--> file.rs:3:31
|
3 | let x: Vec::with_capacity(10, 20);
| -- ^^
| ||
| |help: did you mean assign here?: `=`
| while parsing the type for `x`
```
When there're more than one suggestions in the same diagnostic, they are
displayed in their own block, instead of inline. In order to reduce
confusion, those blocks now display the line number.
Prior to this PR, when we aborted because a "critical pass" failed, we
displayed the number of errors from that critical pass. While that's the
number of errors that caused compilation to abort in *that place*,
that's not what people really want to know. Instead, always report the
total number of errors, and don't bother to track the number of errors
from the last pass that failed.
This changes the compiler driver API to handle errors more smoothly,
and therefore is a compiler-api-[breaking-change].
Fixes#42793.
- Point out the origin of a type requirement when it is the return type
of a method
- Point out possibly missing semicolon when the return type is () and
the implicit return makes sense as a statement
- Suggest changing the return type of methods with default return type
- Don't suggest changing the return type on fn main()
- Don't suggest changing the return type on impl fn

* Point at where the token was expected instead of the last token
successfuly parsed.
* Only show `unexpected token` if the next char and the unexpected token
don't have the same span.
* Change some cfail and pfail tests to ui test.
* Don't show all possible tokens in span label if they are more than 6.
