The pretty-printers open and close "boxes" of text a lot. The open and
close operations must be matched. The matching is currently all implicit
and very easy to get wrong. (#140280 and #140246 are two recent
pretty-printing fixes that both involved unclosed boxes.)
This commit introduces `BoxMarker`, a marker type that represents an
open box. It makes box opening/closing explicit, which makes it much
easier to understand and harder to get wrong.
The commit also removes many comments are on `end` calls saying things
like "end outer head-block", "Close the outer-box". These demonstrate
how confusing the implicit approach was, but aren't necessary any more.
It bugs me when variables of type `Ident` are called `name`. It leads to
silly things like `name.name`. `Ident` variables should be called
`ident`, and `name` should be used for variables of type `Symbol`.
This commit improves things by by doing `s/name/ident/` on a bunch of
`Ident` variables. Not all of them, but a decent chunk.
`rustc_span::symbol` defines some things that are re-exported from
`rustc_span`, such as `Symbol` and `sym`. But it doesn't re-export some
closely related things such as `Ident` and `kw`. So you can do `use
rustc_span::{Symbol, sym}` but you have to do `use
rustc_span::symbol::{Ident, kw}`, which is inconsistent for no good
reason.
This commit re-exports `Ident`, `kw`, and `MacroRulesNormalizedIdent`,
and changes many `rustc_span::symbol::` qualifiers in `compiler/` to
`rustc_span::`. This is a 200+ net line of code reduction, mostly
because many files with two `use rustc_span` items can be reduced to
one.
