Bail out when encountering likely missing turbofish in parser
When encountering a likely intended turbofish without `::`, bubble
up the diagnostic instead of emitting it to allow the parser to recover
more gracefully and avoid uneccessary type errors that are likely to be
wrong.
Fix#61329.

Change opaque type syntax from `existential type` to type alias `impl Trait`
This implements a new feature gate `type_alias_impl_trait` (this is slightly different from the originally proposed feature name, but matches what has been used in discussion since), deprecating the old `existential_types` feature.
The syntax for opaque types has been changed. In addition, the "existential" terminology has been replaced with "opaque", as per previous discussion and the RFC.
This makes partial progress towards implementing https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/63063.

Implement RFC 2707 + Parser recovery for range patterns
Implement https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2707.
- Add a new basic syntactic pattern form `ast::PatKind::Rest` (parsed as `..` or `DOTDOT`) and simplify `ast::PatKind::{Slice, Tuple, TupleStruct}` as a result.
- Lower `ast::PatKind::Rest` in combination with the aforementioned `PatKind` variants as well as `PatKind::Ident`. The HIR remains unchanged for now (may be advisable to make slight adjustments later).
- Refactor `parser.rs` wrt. parsing sequences and lists of things in the process.
- Add parser recovery for range patterns of form `X..`, `X..=`, `X...`, `..Y`, `..=Y`, and `...Y`.
This should make it easy to actually support these patterns semantically later if we so desire.

The idea here is to make a reusable library out of the existing
rust-lexer, by separating out pure lexing and rustc-specific concerns,
like spans, error reporting an interning.
So, rustc_lexer operates directly on `&str`, produces simple tokens
which are a pair of type-tag and a bit of original text, and does not
report errors, instead storing them as flags on the token.
