syntax: cleanup param, method, and misc parsing
Do some misc cleanup of the parser:
- Method and parameter parsing is refactored.
- A parser for `const | mut` is introduced that https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/64588 can reuse.
- Some other misc parsing.
Next up in a different PR:
- ~Implementing https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/64252.~ -- maybe some other time...
- Heavily restructuring up `item.rs` which is a mess (hopefully, no promises ^^).

A small amount of tidying-up factored out from PR #64648
As requested by @Mark-Simulacrum, I put this in a separate commit to make it easier to review. (As far as I can tell, no violations of the policy here, and they are simply in a separate PR because they're not directly related to the import of that PR.)

syntax: recover trailing `|` in or-patterns
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/64879.
For example (this also shows that we are sensitive to the typo `||`):
```
error: a trailing `|` is not allowed in an or-pattern
--> $DIR/remove-leading-vert.rs:33:11
|
LL | A || => {}
| - ^^ help: remove the `||`
| |
| while parsing this or-pattern starting here
|
= note: alternatives in or-patterns are separated with `|`, not `||`
```

syntax: fix dropping of attribute on first param of non-method assocated fn
Fixes#64682.
The general idea is that we bake parsing of `self` into `parse_param_general` and then we just use standard list parsing. Overall, this simplifies the parsing and makes it more consistent.

Rename `*.node` to `*.kind`, and `hair::Pattern*` to `hair::Pat*`
In both `ast::Expr` and `hir::Expr`:
- Rename `Expr.node` to `Expr.kind`.
- Rename `Pat.node` to `Pat.kind`.
- Rename `ImplItem.node` to `ImplItem.kind`.
- Rename `Lit.node` to `Lit.kind`.
- Rename `TraitItem.node` to `TraitItem.kind`.
- Rename `Ty.node` to `Ty.kind`.
- Rename `Stmt.node` to `Stmt.kind`.
- Rename `Item.node` to `Item.kind`.
- Rename `ForeignItem.node` to `ForeignItem.kind`.
- Rename `MetaItem.node` to `MetaItem.kind`.
Also:
- Rename `hair::FieldPattern` to `hair::FieldPat`.
- Rename `hair::PatternKind` to `hair::PatKind`.
- Rename `hair::PatternRange` to `hair::PatRange`.
- Rename `PatternContext` to `PatCtxt`.
- Rename `PatternTypeProjection` to `PatTyProj`.
- Rename `hair::Pattern` to `hair::Pat`.
These two sets of changes are grouped together to aid with merging. The only changes are renamings.

Based on issue #64732, when creating a byte literal with single quotes,
the suggestion message would indicate that you meant to write a `str` literal,
but we actually meant to write a byte string literal.
So I changed the unescape_error_reporting.rs to decide whether to print out
"if you meant to write a `str` literal, use double quotes",
or "if you meant to write a byte string literal, use double quotes".
Refactor librustc_errors::Handler API
This should be reviewed by-commit.
The last commit moves all fields into an inner struct behind a single lock; this is done to prevent possible deadlocks in a multi-threaded compiler, as well as inconsistent state observation.
