In most places, we use a span when emitting `expected...found` errors.
However, there were a couple of places where we didn't use any span,
resulting in hard-to-interpret error messages.
This commit attaches the relevant span to these notes, and additionally
switches over to using `note_expected_found` instead of manually
formatting the message
Add outlives suggestions for some lifetime errors
This PR implements suggestion diagnostics for some lifetime mismatch errors. When the borrow checker finds that some lifetime 'a doesn't outlive some other lifetime 'b that it should outlive, then in addition to the current lifetime error, we also emit a suggestion for how to fix the problem by adding a bound:
- If a and b are normal named regions, suggest to add the bound `'a: 'b`
- If b is static, suggest to replace a with static
- If b also needs to outlive a, they must be the same, so suggest unifying them
We start with a simpler implementation that avoids diagnostic regression or implementation complexity:
- We only makes suggestions for lifetimes the user can already name (eg not closure regions or elided regions)
- For now, we only emit a help note, not an actually suggestion because it is significantly easier.
Finally, there is one hack: it seems that implicit regions in async fn are given the name '_ incorrectly. To avoid suggesting '_: 'x, we simply filter out such lifetimes by name.
For more info, see this internals thread:
https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/mechanical-suggestions-for-some-borrow-checker-errors/9049/3
TL;DR Make suggestions to add a `where 'a: 'b` constraint for some lifetime errors. Details are in the paper linked from the internals thread above.

TODO
- [x] Clean up code
- [x] Only make idiomatic suggestions
- [x] don't suggest naming `&'a self`
- [x] rather than `'a: 'static`, suggest replacing `'a` with `'static`
- [x] rather than `'a: 'b, 'b: 'a`, suggest replacing `'a` with `'b` or vice versa
- [x] Performance (maybe need a perf run when this is closer to the finish line?)
- perf run was clean...
- EDIT: perf run seems to only check non-error performance... How do we check that error performance didn't regress?
- [x] Needs ui tests
- [x] Integrate the `help` message into the main lifetime `error`
Currently the default is "inherited" from context, so e.g. `&impl
Foo<Item = dyn Bar>` would default to `&'x impl Foo<Item = dyn Bar +
'x>`, but this triggers an ICE and is not very consistent.
This patch doesn't implement what I expect would be the correct
semantics, because those are likely too complex. Instead, it handles
what I'd expect to be the common case -- where the trait has no
lifetime parameters.
This commit updates the test output for the updated NLL compare mode
that uses `-Z borrowck=migrate` rather than `-Z borrowck=mir`. The
previous commit changes `compiletest` and this commit only updates
`.nll.stderr` files.
We used to apply it repeatedly as we went, relying on the current
value of the `region_bound_pairs_accum` vector. But now we save those
values into a map, so we can just process all the registered region
obligations at the end.
[NLL] Returns are interesting for free regions
Based on #53088 - creating now to get feedback.
Closes#51175
* Make assigning to the return type interesting.
* Use "returning this value" instead of "return" in error messages.
* Prefer one of the explanations that we have a name for to a generic interesting cause in some cases.
* Treat causes that involve the destination of a call like assignments.
