`description` has been documented as soft-deprecated since 1.27.0 (17
months ago). There is no longer any reason to call it or implement it.
This commit:
- adds #[rustc_deprecated(since = "1.41.0")] to Error::description;
- moves description (and cause, which is also deprecated) below the
source and backtrace methods in the Error trait;
- reduces documentation of description and cause to take up much less
vertical real estate in rustdocs, while preserving the example that
shows how to render errors without needing to call description;
- removes the description function of all *currently unstable* Error
impls in the standard library;
- marks #[allow(deprecated)] the description function of all *stable*
Error impls in the standard library;
- replaces miscellaneous uses of description in example code and the
compiler.
Enable `loop` and `while` in constants behind a feature flag
This PR is an initial implementation of #52000. It adds a `const_loop` feature gate, which allows `while` and `loop` expressions through both HIR and MIR const-checkers if enabled. `for` expressions remain forbidden by the HIR const-checker, since they desugar to a call to `IntoIterator::into_iter`, which will be rejected anyways.
`while` loops also require [`#![feature(const_if_match)]`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/66507), since they have a conditional built into them. The diagnostics from the HIR const checker will suggest this to the user.

Add `enclosing scope` parameter to `rustc_on_unimplemented`
Adds a new parameter to `#[rustc_on_unimplemented]`, `enclosing scope`, which highlights the function or closure scope with a message.
The wip part refers to adding this annotation to `Try` trait to improve ergonomics (which I don't know how to do since I change both std and librustc)
Closes#61709.
Configure sanitize option when compiling with a sanitizer to make
it possible to execute different code depending on whether given
sanitizer is enabled or not.
Use proc-macro to derive HashStable everywhere
Hello,
A second proc-macro is added to derive HashStable for crates librustc depends on.
This proc-macro `HashStable_Generic` (to bikeshed) allows to decouple code and strip much of librustc's boilerplate.
Still, two implementations `Span` and `TokenKind` require to be placed in librustc.
The latter only depends on the `bug` macro. Advise welcome on how to sever that link.
A trait `StableHasingContextLike` has been introduced at each crate root,
in order to handle those implementations which require librustc's very `StableHashingContext`.
This overall effort allowed to remove the `impl_stable_hash_for` macro.
Each commit passes the `x.py check`.
I still have to double check there was no change in the implementation.
Ast address-of
This is the parts of #64588 that don't affect MIR. If an address-of expression makes it to MIR lowering we error and lower to the best currently expressible approximation to limit further errors.

Enable `if` and `match` in constants behind a feature flag
This PR is an initial implementation of #49146. It introduces a `const_if_match` feature flag and does the following if it is enabled:
- Allows `Downcast` projections, `SwitchInt` terminators and `FakeRead`s for matched places through the MIR const-checker.
- Allows `if` and `match` expressions through the HIR const-checker.
- Stops converting `&&` to `&` and `||` to `|` in `const` and `static` items.
As a result, the following operations are now allowed in a const context behind the feature flag:
- `if` and `match`
- short circuiting logic operators (`&&` and `||`)
- the `assert` and `debug_assert` macros (if the `const_panic` feature flag is also enabled)
However, the following operations remain forbidden:
- `while`, `loop` and `for` (see #52000)
- the `?` operator (calls `From::from` on its error variant)
- the `assert_eq` and `assert_ne` macros, along with their `debug` variants (calls `fmt::Debug`)
This PR is possible now that we use dataflow for const qualification (see #64470 and #66385).

Add a proc-macro to derive HashStable in librustc dependencies
A second proc-macro is added to derive HashStable for crates librustc depends on.
This proc-macro HashStable_Generic (to bikeshed) allows to decouple code and some librustc's boilerplate.
Not everything is migrated, because `Span` and `TokenKind` require to be placed inside librustc.
Types using them stay there too.

Making ICEs and test them in incremental
This adds:
- A way to make the compiler ICE
- A way to check for ICE in `cfail` tests with `should-ice`
- A regression test for issue #65401
I am not sure the attribute added `should-ice` is the best for this job
SourceMap is now in the root of all rustc-specific crates, syntax_pos,
so there's no need for the trait object to decouple the dependencies
between librustc_errors and libsyntax as was needed previously.
This does not update the use sites or delete the now unnecessary
SourceMapper trait, to allow git to interpret the file move as a rename
rather than a new file.
This is a bit unfortunate, but code needs to be able to fatally error
early on (in particular, syntax_pos after we move SourceMap there). It's
also a tiny bit of code, which means it's ultimately not that bad.
Support registering inert attributes and attribute tools using crate-level attributes
And remove `#[feature(custom_attribute)]`.
(`rustc_plugin::Registry::register_attribute` is not removed yet, I'll do it in a follow up PR.)
```rust
#![register_attr(my_attr)]
#![register_tool(my_tool)]
#[my_attr] // OK
#[my_tool::anything] // OK
fn main() {}
```
---
Some tools (`rustfmt` and `clippy`) used in tool attributes are hardcoded in the compiler.
We need some way to introduce them without hardcoding as well.
This PR introduces a way to do it with a crate level attribute.
The previous attempt to introduce them through command line (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/57921) met some resistance.
This probably needs to go through an RFC before stabilization.
However, I'd prefer to land *this* PR without an RFC to able to remove `#[feature(custom_attribute)]` and `Registry::register_attribute` while also providing a replacement.
---
`register_attr` is a direct replacement for `#![feature(custom_attribute)]` (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/29642), except it doesn't rely on implicit fallback from unresolved attributes to custom attributes (which was always hacky and is the primary reason for the removal of `custom_attribute`) and requires registering the attribute explicitly.
It's not clear whether it should go through stabilization or not.
It's quite possible that all the uses should migrate to `#![register_tool]` (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/66079) instead.
---
Details:
- The naming is `register_attr`/`register_tool` rather than some `register_attributes` (plural, no abbreviation) for consistency with already existing attributes like `cfg_attr`, or `feature`, etc.

invalid_value lint: use diagnostic items
This adjusts the invalid_value lint to use diagnostic items.
@Centril @oli-obk For some reason, this fails to recognize `transmute` -- somehow the diagnostic item is not found. Any idea why?
