Make rustc_target usable outside of rustc
I'm working on showing type size in rust-analyzer (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-analyzer/pull/13490) and I currently copied rustc code inside rust-analyzer, which works, but is bad. With this change, I would become able to use `rustc_target` and `rustc_index` directly in r-a, reducing the amount of copy needed.
This PR contains some feature flag to put nightly features behind them to make crates buildable on the stable compiler + makes layout related types generic over index type + removes interning of nested layouts.
Avoid `GenFuture` shim when compiling async constructs
Previously, async constructs would be lowered to "normal" generators, with an additional `from_generator` / `GenFuture` shim in between to convert from `Generator` to `Future`.
The compiler will now special-case these generators internally so that async constructs will *directly* implement `Future` without the need to go through the `from_generator` / `GenFuture` shim.
The primary motivation for this change was hiding this implementation detail in stack traces and debuginfo, but it can in theory also help the optimizer as there is less abstractions to see through.

Given this demo code:
```rust
pub async fn a(arg: u32) -> Backtrace {
let bt = b().await;
let _arg = arg;
bt
}
pub async fn b() -> Backtrace {
Backtrace::force_capture()
}
```
I would get the following with the latest stable compiler (on Windows):
```
4: async_codegen::b::async_fn$0
at .\src\lib.rs:10
5: core::future::from_generator::impl$1::poll<enum2$<async_codegen::b::async_fn_env$0> >
at /rustc/897e37553bba8b42751c67658967889d11ecd120\library\core\src\future\mod.rs:91
6: async_codegen::a::async_fn$0
at .\src\lib.rs:4
7: core::future::from_generator::impl$1::poll<enum2$<async_codegen::a::async_fn_env$0> >
at /rustc/897e37553bba8b42751c67658967889d11ecd120\library\core\src\future\mod.rs:91
```
whereas now I get a much cleaner stack trace:
```
3: async_codegen::b::async_fn$0
at .\src\lib.rs:10
4: async_codegen::a::async_fn$0
at .\src\lib.rs:4
```

Small accessibility improvements
From this [reddit post](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/z1gyz7/accessible_documentation/), I started to check a bit how to improve accessibility and how we could add test for it.
So these two fixes come from the use of the [pa11y tool](https://github.com/pa11y/pa11y). To make it work, I had to update its puppeteer version to the last one but otherwise it seems to be quite nice. I didn't fix all the errors it reported because they were about colors. To get the same result as mine, you can use this config:
```json
{
"ignore": [
"WCAG2AA.Principle1.Guideline1_4.1_4_3.G18.Fail",
"WCAG2AA.Principle3.Guideline3_2.3_2_2.H32.2"
]
}
```
I think trying to improve accessibility is something we should definitely aim for. I'll try to integrate a tool to enforce this check (very likely `pa11y`) directly into the CI.

Add regression test for issue #99938
That issue was a dupe of #99852, and it got fixed since, but it's always better to have multiple regression tests rather than one.
closes#99938
Pass `InferCtxt` to `DropRangeVisitor` so we can resolve vars
The types that we encounter in the `TypeckResults` that we pass to the `DropRangeVisitor` are not yet fully resolved, since that only happens in writeback after type checking is complete.
Instead, pass down the whole `InferCtxt` so that we can resolve any inference vars that have been constrained since they were written into the results. This is similar to how the `MemCategorizationContext` in the `ExprUseVisitor` also needs to pass down both typeck results _and_ the inference context.
Fixes an ICE mentioned in this comment: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/104382#issuecomment-1324410781
Properly handle `Pin<&mut dyn* Trait>` receiver in codegen
This ensures we can actually await a `dyn* Future`, which seems important for async fn in dyn trait.
Also, disable `dyn*` trait upcasting. It's not exactly complete right now, and can cause strange ICEs for no reason -- nobody's using it either. I thought it was cute to implement when I did it, but I didn't think about how it interacts structurally with `CoerceUnsized` correctly.
Fixes#104794, presumably removing `dyn*` upcasting and its `CoerceUnsized` issues does the trick.
Use `as_deref` in compiler (but only where it makes sense)
This simplifies some code :3
(there are some changes that are not exacly `as_deref`, but more like "clever `Option`/`Result` method use")
copy doc output files by format
This pr provides copying doc outputs by checking output format without removing output directory on each trigger.
Resolves#103785
