Likewise for `NestedMetaItem::tokens()`. Also, add
`MetaItemKind::token_trees_and_joints()`, which `MetaItemKind::tokens()`
now calls.
This avoids some unnecessary `TokenTree` to `TokenStream` conversions,
and removes the need for the clumsy
`TokenStream::append_to_tree_and_joint_vec()`.
It means an allocation is required to create an empty `TokenStream`, but
all other operations are simpler and marginally faster due to not having
to check for `None`. Overall it simplifies the code for a negligible
performance effect.
The commit also removes `TokenStream::empty` by implementing `Default`,
which is now possible.
Instead just use `pprust::path_to_string(..)` where needed.
This has two benefits:
a) The AST definition is now independent of printing it.
(Therefore we get closer to extracting a data-crate.)
b) Debugging should be easier as program flow is clearer.
Implement another internal lints
cc #49509
This adds ~~two~~ one internal lint~~s~~:
1. LINT_PASS_IMPL_WITHOUT_MACRO: Make sure, that the `{declare,impl}_lint_pass` macro is used to implement lint passes. cc #59669
2. ~~USAGE_OF_TYCTXT_AND_SPAN_ARGS: item 2 on the list in #49509~~
~~With 2. I wasn't sure, if this lint should be applied everywhere. That means a careful review of 0955835 would be great. Also 73fb9b4 allows this lint on some functions. Should I also apply this lint there?~~
TODO (not directly relevant for review):
- [ ] https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/59316#discussion_r280186517 (not sure yet, if this works or how to query for `rustc_private`, since it's not in [`Features`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/syntax/feature_gate/struct.Features.html) 🤔 cc @eddyb)
- [x] https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/61735#discussion_r292389870
- [x] Check explicitly for the `{declare,impl}_lint_pass!` macros

Allow attributes in formal function parameters
Implements https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/60406.
This is my first contribution to the compiler and since this is a large and complex project, I am not fully aware of the consequences of the changes I have made.
**TODO**
- [x] Forbid some built-in attributes.
- [x] Expand cfg/cfg_attr
