allow overwriting the output of `rustc --version`
Our wonderful bisection folk [have to work around](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/123276#issuecomment-2075001510) crates that do incomplete nightly/feature detection, as otherwise the bisection just points to where the feature detection breaks, and not to the actual breakage they are looking for.
This is also annoying behaviour to nightly users who did not opt-in to those nightly features. Most nightly users want to be in control of the nightly breakage they get, by
* choosing when to update rustc
* choosing when to update dependencies
* choosing which nightly features they are willing to take the breakage for
The reason this breakage occurs is that the build script of some crates run `rustc --version`, and if the version looks like nightly or dev, it will enable nightly features. These nightly features may break in random ways whenever we change something in nightly, so every release of such a crate will only work with a small range of nightly releases. This causes bisection to fail whenever it tries an unsupported nightly, even though that crate is not related to the bisection at all, but is just an unrelated dependency.
This PR (and the policy I want to establish with this FCP) is only for situations like the `version_check`'s `supports_feature` function. It is explicitly not for `autocfg` or similar feature-detection-by-building-rust-code, irrespective of my opinions on it and the similarity of nightly breakage that can occur with such schemes. These cause much less breakage, but should the breakage become an issue, they should get covered by this policy, too.
This PR allows changing the version and release strings reported by `rustc --version` via the `RUSTC_OVERRIDE_VERSION_STRING` env var. The bisection issue is then fixed by https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo-bisect-rustc/pull/335.
I mainly want to establish a compiler team policy:
> We do not consider feature detection on nightly (on stable via compiler version numbering is fine) a valid use case that we need to support, and if it causes problems, we are at liberty to do what we deem best - either actively working to prevent it or to actively ignore it. We may try to work with responsive and cooperative authors, but are not obligated to.
Should they subvert the workarounds that nightly users or cargo-bisect-rustc can use, we should be able to land rustc PRs that target the specific crates that cause issues for us and outright replace their build script's logic to disable nightly detection.
I am not including links to crates, PRs or issues here, as I don't actually care about the specific use cases and don't want to make it trivial to go there and leave comments. This discussion is going to be interesting enough on its own, without branching out.
We don't want to have questions in the diagnostic output. Instead, we use wording that communicates uncertainty, like "might":

Remove the unstable `extern "wasm"` ABI (`wasm_abi` feature tracked
in #83788).
As discussed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/127513#issuecomment-2220410679
and following, this ABI is a failed experiment that did not end
up being used for anything. Keeping support for this ABI in LLVM 19
would require us to switch wasm targets to the `experimental-mv`
ABI, which we do not want to do.
It should be noted that `Abi::Wasm` was internally used for two
things: The `-Z wasm-c-abi=legacy` ABI that is still used by
default on some wasm targets, and the `extern "wasm"` ABI. Despite
both being `Abi::Wasm` internally, they were not the same. An
explicit `extern "wasm"` additionally enabled the `+multivalue`
feature.
I've opted to remove `Abi::Wasm` in this patch entirely, instead
of keeping it as an ABI with only internal usage. Both
`-Z wasm-c-abi` variants are now treated as part of the normal
C ABI, just with different different treatment in
adjust_for_foreign_abi.
patchable-function-entry: Add unstable compiler flag and attribute
Tracking issue: #123115
Add the -Z patchable-function-entry compiler flag and the #[patchable_function_entry(prefix_nops = m, entry_nops = n)] attribute.
Rebased and adjusted the canditate implementation to match changes in the RFC.
ast: Standardize visiting order for attributes and node IDs
This should only affect `macro_rules` scopes and order of diagnostics.
Also add a deprecation lint for `macro_rules` called outside of their scope, like in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/124535.
Place tail expression behind terminating scope
This PR implements #123739 so that we can do further experiments in nightly.
A little rewrite has been applied to `for await` lowering. It was previously `unsafe { Pin::unchecked_new(into_async_iter(..)) }`. Under the edition 2024 rule, however, `into_async_iter` gets dropped at the end of the `unsafe` block. This presumably the first Edition 2024 migration rule goes by hoisting `into_async_iter(..)` into `match` one level above, so it now looks like the following.
```rust
match into_async_iter($iter_expr) {
ref mut iter => match unsafe { Pin::unchecked_new(iter) } {
...
}
}
```
Remove empty test suite `tests/run-make-fulldeps`
After #109770, there were only a handful of tests left in the run-make-fulldeps suite.
As of #126111, there are no longer *any* run-make-fulldeps tests, so now we can:
- Remove the directory
- Remove related bootstrap/compiletest code
- Remove various other references in CI scripts and documentation.
By removing this suite, we also no longer need to worry about discrepancies between it and ui-fulldeps, and we don't have to worry about porting tests from Makefile to [rmake](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/121876) (or whether rmake even works with fulldeps).
This test never actually checked anything useful, so presumably it only existed
to silence the tidy check for feature gate tests, with the real checks being
performed elsewhere (in tests that have since been deleted).
Match ergonomics 2024: align implementation with RFC
- Remove eat-two-layers (`ref_pat_everywhere`)
- Consolidate `mut_preserve_binding_mode_2024` into `ref_pat_eat_one_layer_2024`
- `&mut` no longer peels off `&`
- Apply "no `ref mut` behind `&`" rule on all editions with `ref_pat_eat_one_layer_2024`
- Require `mut_ref` feature gate for all mutable by-reference bindings

Rename HIR `TypeBinding` to `AssocItemConstraint` and related cleanup
Rename `hir::TypeBinding` and `ast::AssocConstraint` to `AssocItemConstraint` and update all items and locals using the old terminology.
Motivation: The terminology *type binding* is extremely outdated. "Type bindings" not only include constraints on associated *types* but also on associated *constants* (feature `associated_const_equality`) and on RPITITs of associated *functions* (feature `return_type_notation`). Hence the word *item* in the new name. Furthermore, the word *binding* commonly refers to a mapping from a binder/identifier to a "value" for some definition of "value". Its use in "type binding" made sense when equality constraints (e.g., `AssocTy = Ty`) were the only kind of associated item constraint. Nowadays however, we also have *associated type bounds* (e.g., `AssocTy: Bound`) for which the term *binding* doesn't make sense.
---
Old terminology (HIR, rustdoc):
```
`TypeBinding`: (associated) type binding
├── `Constraint`: associated type bound
└── `Equality`: (associated) equality constraint (?)
├── `Ty`: (associated) type binding
└── `Const`: associated const equality (constraint)
```
Old terminology (AST, abbrev.):
```
`AssocConstraint`
├── `Bound`
└── `Equality`
├── `Ty`
└── `Const`
```
New terminology (AST, HIR, rustdoc):
```
`AssocItemConstraint`: associated item constraint
├── `Bound`: associated type bound
└── `Equality`: associated item equality constraint OR associated item binding (for short)
├── `Ty`: associated type equality constraint OR associated type binding (for short)
└── `Const`: associated const equality constraint OR associated const binding (for short)
