Parameter patterns are lowered to an `Ident` by
`lower_fn_params_to_names`, which is used when lowering bare function
types, trait methods, and foreign functions. Currently, there are two
exceptional cases where the lowered param can become an empty `Ident`.
- If the incoming pattern is an empty `Ident`. This occurs if the
parameter is anonymous, e.g. in a bare function type.
- If the incoming pattern is neither an ident nor an underscore. Any
such parameter will have triggered a compile error (hence the
`span_delayed_bug`), but lowering still occurs.
This commit replaces these empty `Ident` results with `None`, which
eliminates a number of `kw::Empty` uses, and makes it impossible to fail
to check for these exceptional cases.
Note: the `FIXME` comment in `is_unwrap_or_empty_symbol` is removed. It
actually should have been removed in #138482, the precursor to this PR.
That PR changed the lowering of wild patterns to `_` symbols instead of
empty symbols, which made the mentioned underscore check load-bearing.
