In which we start to parse const generics defaults
As discussed in this [zulip topic](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/260443-project-const-generics/topic/const.20generic.20defaults), this PR extracts the parsing parts from `@JulianKnodt's` PR #75384 for a better user-experience using the newly stabilized `min_const_generics` (albeit temporary) as shown in #80507: trying to use default values on const generics currently results in parse errors, as if the user didn't use the correct syntax (which is somewhat true but also misleading).
This PR extracts (and slightly modifies in a couple places) `@JulianKnodt's` parsing code (with attribution if I've done everything correctly), AST and HIR changes, and feature gate setup.
This feature is now marked as "incomplete" and thus will also print out the expected "const generics default values are unstable" error instead of a syntax error. Note that, as I've only extracted the parsing part, the actual feature will not work at all if enabled. There will be ICEs, and inference errors on the const generics default values themselves.
Fixes#80507.
Once this merges, I'll:
- modify the const generics tracking issue to refer to the `const_generics_defaults` gate rather than the older temporary name it uses there.
- create the GH `F-const_generics_defaults` label

Add edition 2021.
🎆 Happy new ~~year~~ Rust. 🍾
This adds --edition=2021, and updates suggestions about 2018 to say "2018 *or later*".
Related Cargo PR: https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/8922
---
Edit: This adds the new edition as *unstable*. Without `-Z unstable-options`, `--edition=2021` results in:
```
$ rustc --edition=2021
error: edition 2021 is unstable and only available with -Z unstable-options.

Revert "Cleanup markdown span handling"
Reverts rust-lang/rust#80244. This caused a diagnostic regression, originally it was:
```
warning: unresolved link to `std::process::Comman`
--> link.rs:3:10
|
3 | //! [a]: std::process::Comman
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ no item named `Comman` in module `process`
|
= note: `#[warn(broken_intra_doc_links)]` on by default
```
but after that PR rustdoc now displays
```
warning: unresolved link to `std::process::Comman`
--> link.rs:1:14
|
1 | //! Links to [a] [link][a]
| ^^^ no item named `Comman` in module `process`
|
= note: `#[warn(broken_intra_doc_links)]` on by default
```
which IMO is much less clear.

Improvements to NatVis support
NatVis files describe how to display types in some Windows debuggers,
such as Visual Studio, WinDbg, and VS Code.
This commit makes several improvements:
* Adds visualizers for Rc<T>, Weak<T>, and Arc<T>.
* Changes [size] to [len], for consistency with the Rust API.
Visualizers often use [size] to mirror the size() method on C++ STL
collections.
* Several visualizers used the PVOID and ULONG typedefs. These are part
of the Windows API; they are not guaranteed to always be defined in a
pure Rust DLL/EXE. I converted PVOID to `void*` and `ULONG` to
`unsigned long`.
* Cosmetic change: Removed {} braces around the visualized display
for `Option` types. They now display simply as `Some(value)` or
`None`, which reflects what is written in source code.
* The visualizer for `alloc::string::String` makes assumptions about
the layout of `String` (it casts `String*` to another type), rather
than using symbolic expressions. This commit changes the visualizer
so that it simply uses symbolic expressions to access the string
data and string length.
* The visualizers for `str` and `String` now place the character data
array under a synthetic `[chars]` node. When expanding a `String`
node, users rarely want to see an array of characters. This just places
them behind one expansion node / level.
Lint on redundant trailing semicolon after item
We now lint on code like this:
```rust
fn main() {
fn foo() {};
struct Bar {};
}
```
Previously, this caused warnings in Cargo, so it was disabled.

Add regression test for #80375
This will also make sure that #80375 is handled if #79135 has to be reverted (which won't happen 🤞).
Closes#80375.

Suggest fn ptr rather than fn item and suggest to use `Fn` trait bounds rather than the unique closure type in E0121
Previously, using `_` as a return type in a function that returned a function/closure would provide a diagnostic that would cause a papercut. For example:
```rust
fn f() -> i32 { 0 }
fn fn_ptr() -> _ { f }
fn closure() -> _ { || 0 }
```
would result in this diagnostic:
```rust
error[E0121]: the type placeholder `_` is not allowed within types on item signatures
--> <anon>:2:16
|
2 | fn fn_ptr() -> _ { f }
| ^
| |
| not allowed in type signatures
| help: replace with the correct return type: `fn() -> i32 {f}`
error[E0121]: the type placeholder `_` is not allowed within types on item signatures
--> <anon>:3:17
|
3 | fn closure() -> _ { || 0 }
| ^
| |
| not allowed in type signatures
| help: replace with the correct return type: `[closure@<anon>:3:21: 3:25]`
error: aborting due to 2 previous errors
For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0121`.
```
As can be seen, it was suggested to use the function definition return type `fn() -> i32 { f }` which is not valid syntax as a return type. Additionally, closures cause a papercut as unique closure types (notated in this case as `[closure@<anon>:3:21: 3:25]`) are not valid syntax either.
Instead, this PR implements this version of the diagnostic (this example is for the same code featured above):
```rust
error[E0121]: the type placeholder `_` is not allowed within types on item signatures
--> <anon>:2:16
|
2 | fn fn_ptr() -> _ { f }
| ^
| |
| not allowed in type signatures
| help: replace with the correct return type: `fn() -> i32`
error[E0121]: the type placeholder `_` is not allowed within types on item signatures
--> <anon>:3:17
|
3 | fn closure() -> _ { || 0 }
| ^ not allowed in type signatures

= help: consider using an `Fn`, `FnMut`, or `FnOnce` trait bound
= note: for more information on `Fn` traits and closure types, see https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch13-01-closures.html
error: aborting due to 2 previous errors
For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0121`.
```
As can be seen in this diagnostic, the papercut for returning a function item is fixed by suggesting the usage of a function pointer as the return type. As for closures, it's suggested to use an `Fn`, `FnMut`, or `FnOnce` trait bound (with further reading on closures and `Fn` traits in *The Book* for beginners). I did not implement a suggestion to use `impl Fn() -> i32` syntax as that was out-of-scope for my abilities at the moment, therefore someone in the future may want to implement that. Also, it's possible to use either `impl Trait` syntax, generics, or generics with a `where` clause, and some users may not want to use `impl Trait` syntax for their own reasons.
This PR fixes#80179.
Fix intra-doc links for non-path primitives
This does *not* currently work for associated items that are
auto-implemented by the compiler (e.g. `never::eq`), because they aren't
present in the source code. I plan to fix this in a follow-up PR.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/63351 using the approach mentioned in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/63351#issuecomment-683352130.
r? `@Manishearth`
cc `@petrochenkov` - this makes `rustc_resolve::Res` public, is that ok? I'd just add an identical type alias in rustdoc if not, which seems a waste.
