There is now a CoreEmitter that everything desugars to, but without
losing any information. Also remove RenderSpan::FileLine. This lets the
rustc_driver tests build.
Major changes:
- Remove old snippet rendering code and use the new stuff.
- Introduce `span_label` method to add a label
- Remove EndSpan mode and replace with a fn to get the last
character of a span.
- Stop using `Option<MultiSpan>` and just use an empty `MultiSpan`
- and probably a bunch of other stuff :)
MultiSpan model is now:
- set of primary spans
- set of span+label pairs
Primary spans render with `^^^`, secondary spans with `---`.
Labels are placed next to the `^^^` or `---` marker as appropriate.
This uncovered a lot of bugs in compiletest and also some shortcomings
of our existing JSON output. We had to add information to the JSON
output, such as suggested text and macro backtraces. We also had to fix
various bugs in the existing tests.
Joint work with jntrnr.
This works by adding a boolean flag, `continue_after_error`, to
`syntax::errors::Handler` that can be imperatively set to `true` or
`false` via a new `fn set_continue_after_error`.
The flag starts off true (since we generally try to recover from
compiler errors, and `Handler` is shared across all phases).
Then, during the `phase_1_parse_input`, we consult the setting of the
`-Z continue-parse-after-error` debug flag to determine whether we
should leave the flag set to `true` or should change it to `false`.
----
(We might consider adding a debugflag to do such aborts in other
places where we are currently attempting recovery, such as resolve,
but I think the parser is the really important case to handle in the
face of #31994 and the parser bugs of varying degrees that were
injected by parse error recovery.)
Automated conversion using the untry tool [1] and the following command:
```
$ find -name '*.rs' -type f | xargs untry

There is now more structure to the report, so that you can specify e.g. an RFC/PR/issue number and other explanatory details.

I would really like feedback also on the specific messages!
Fixes#30746
[breaking-change]
syntax::errors::Handler::new has been renamed to with_tty_emitter
Many functions which used to take a syntax::errors::ColorConfig, now take a rustc::session::config::ErrorOutputType. If you previously used ColorConfig::Auto as a default, you should now use ErrorOutputType::default().
