`description` has been documented as soft-deprecated since 1.27.0 (17 months ago). There is no longer any reason to call it or implement it. This commit: - adds #[rustc_deprecated(since = "1.41.0")] to Error::description; - moves description (and cause, which is also deprecated) below the source and backtrace methods in the Error trait; - reduces documentation of description and cause to take up much less vertical real estate in rustdocs, while preserving the example that shows how to render errors without needing to call description; - removes the description function of all *currently unstable* Error impls in the standard library; - marks #[allow(deprecated)] the description function of all *stable* Error impls in the standard library; - replaces miscellaneous uses of description in example code and the compiler. |

The driver crate is effectively the "main" function for the rust
compiler. It orchestrates the compilation process and "knits together"
the code from the other crates within rustc. This crate itself does
not contain any of the "main logic" of the compiler (though it does
have some code related to pretty printing or other minor compiler
options).
For more information about how the driver works, see the rustc guide.
