Plugins deprecation: don’t suggest simply removing the attribute
Building Servo with a recent Nightly produces:
```rust
warning: use of deprecated attribute `plugin`: compiler plugins are deprecated. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/29597
--> components/script/lib.rs:14:1

| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: remove this attribute

= note: `#[warn(deprecated)]` on by default
```
First, linking to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/29597 is not ideal since there is pretty much no discussion there of the deprecation and what can be used instead. This PR changes the link to the deprecation PR which does have more discussion.
Second, the “remove this attribute” suggestion is rather unhelpful. Just because a feature is deprecated doesn’t mean that simply removing its use without a replacement is acceptable.
In the case of custom lint, there is no replacement available. Prefixing a message with “help:” when telling users that they’re screwed honestly feels disrespectful.
This PR also changes the message to be more factual.
Avoid unnecessary `TokenTree` to `TokenStream` conversions
A `TokenStream` contains any number of `TokenTrees`. Therefore, a single `TokenTree` can be promoted to a `TokenStream`. But doing so costs two allocations: one for the single-element `Vec`, and one for the `Lrc`. (An `IsJoint` value also must be added; the default is `NonJoint`.)
The current code converts `TokenTree`s to `TokenStream`s unnecessarily in a few places. This PR removes some of these unnecessary conversions, both simplifying the code and speeding it up.

Likewise for `NestedMetaItem::tokens()`. Also, add
`MetaItemKind::token_trees_and_joints()`, which `MetaItemKind::tokens()`
now calls.
This avoids some unnecessary `TokenTree` to `TokenStream` conversions,
and removes the need for the clumsy
`TokenStream::append_to_tree_and_joint_vec()`.
The current code has this impl:
```
impl<T: Into<TokenStream>> iter::FromIterator<T> for TokenStream
```
If given an `IntoIterator<Item = TokenTree>`, it will convert each individual
`TokenTree` to a `TokenStream` (at the cost of two allocations: a `Vec`
and an `Lrc`). It will then merge those `TokenStream`s into a single
`TokenStream`. This is inefficient.
This commit changes the impl to this less general one:
```
impl iter::FromIterator<TokenTree> for TokenStream
```
It collects the `TokenTree`s into a single `Vec` first and then converts that
to a `TokenStream` by wrapping it in a single `Lrc`. The previous generality
was unnecessary; no other code needs changing.
This change speeds up several benchmarks by up to 4%.

Remove last uses of gensyms
Underscore bindings now use unique `SyntaxContext`s to avoid collisions. This was the last use of gensyms in the compiler, so this PR also removes them.

Refactor: Rename `db` locals to `diag`
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/64272 replaced `DiagnosticBuilder` with `Diagnostic` in some places. This PR just renames the db variable from `db` to `diag` where it wasn't renamed.

Remove custom `PartialEq` impls for `LocalInternedString`.
This is on-trend with the recent changes simplifying
`LocalInternedString` and reducing its use.

syntax: add parser recovery for intersection- / and-patterns `p1 @ p2`
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/65400.
The recovery comes in two flavors:
1. We know that `p2` is a binding so we can invert as `p2 @ p1`:
```rust
error: pattern on wrong side of `@`
--> $DIR/intersection-patterns.rs:13:9
|
LL | Some(x) @ y => {}
| -------^^^-
| | |
| | binding on the right, should be to the left
| pattern on the left, should be to the right
| help: switch the order: `y @ Some(x)`
```
2. Otherwise we emit a generic diagnostic for the lack of support for intersection patterns:
```rust
error: left-hand side of `@` must be a binding
--> $DIR/intersection-patterns.rs:23:9
|
LL | Some(x) @ Some(y) => {}
| -------^^^-------
| | |
| | also a pattern
| interpreted as a pattern, not a binding
|
= note: bindings are `x`, `mut x`, `ref x`, and `ref mut x`
```

Remove implicit dependencies on syntax::pprust
Part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/65324.
The main goal here is to facilitate the eventual move of pprust out from libsyntax and because an AST definition typically should not depend on its pretty printer.
