Don’t report missing fields in struct exprs with syntax errors.
@Noratrieb [told me](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/custom-cargo-command-to-show-only-errors-avoid-setting-rustflags-every-time/24032/7?u=kpreid) that “it is a bug if this recovery causes follow-up errors that would not be there if the user fixed the first error.” So, here’s a contribution to hide a follow-up error that annoyed me recently.
Specifically, if the user writes a struct literal with a syntax error, such as
```rust
StructName { foo: 1 bar: 2 }
```
the compiler will no longer report that the field `bar` is missing in addition to the syntax error.
This is my first time attempting any change to the parser or AST; please let me know if there is a better way to do what I’ve done here. ~~The part I’m least happy with is the blast radius of adding another field to `hir::ExprKind::Struct`, but this seems to be in line with the style of the rest of the code. (If this were my own code, I would consider changing `hir::ExprKind::Struct` to a nested struct, the same way it is in `ast::ExprKind`.)~~ The additional information is now stored as an additional variant of `ast::StructRest` / `hir::StructTailExpr`.
**Note to reviewers:** I recommend reviewing each commit separately, and in the case of the first one with indentation changes ignored.
This adds a variant `NoneWithError` to AST and HIR representations of
the “rest” or “tail”, which is currently always treated identically to
the `None` variant.
Don't allow subdiagnostic to use variables from their parent
Tangentially related to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/151366
This is PR 1/2 for structured diagnostics, will do the unstructured ones next. After the second PR I will be able to remove some code that should compensate for this PR being positive.
Regardless of this PR having a positive diff, I feel that subdiagnostics being able to use variables from their parent is very confusing, so this is for the better,.

> [!NOTE]
> This is a rewrite of #146307 by using a lang item instead of a custom `TyKind`. We still need a `hir::TyKind::FieldOf` variant, because resolving the field name cannot be done before HIR construction. The advantage of doing it this way is that we don't need to make any changes to types after HIR (including symbol mangling). At the very beginning of this feature implementation, I tried to do it using a lang item, but then quickly abandoned the approach, because at that time I was still intending to support nested fields.
Here is a [range-diff](https://triagebot.infra.rust-lang.org/gh-range-diff/rust-lang/rust/605f49b27444a738ea4032cb77e3bdc4eb811bab..d15f5052095b3549111854a2555dd7026b0a729e/605f49b27444a738ea4032cb77e3bdc4eb811bab..f5f42d1e03495dbaa23671c46b15fccddeb3492f) between the two PRs

# Add Field Representing Types (FRTs)
This PR implements the first step of the field projection lang experiment (Tracking Issue: rust-lang/rust#145383). Field representing types (FRTs) are a new kind of type. They can be named through the use of the `field_of!` macro with the first argument being the type and the second the name of the field (or variant and field in the case of an enum). No nested fields are supported.
FRTs natively implement the `Field` trait that's also added in this PR. It exposes information about the field such as the type of the field, the type of the base (i.e. the type that contains the field) and the offset within that base type. Only fields of non-packed structs are supported, fields of enums an unions have unique types for each field, but those do not implement the `Field` trait.
This PR was created in collaboration with @dingxiangfei2009, it wouldn't have been possible without him, so huge thanks for mentoring me!
I updated my library solution for field projections to use the FRTs from `core` instead of creating my own using the hash of the name of the field. See the [Rust-for-Linux/field-projection `lang-experiment` branch](https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/field-projection/tree/lang-experiment).
## API added to `core::field`
```rust
pub unsafe trait Field {
type Base;
type Type;
const OFFSET: usize;
}
pub macro field_of($Container:ty, $($fields:expr)+ $(,)?);
```
Along with a perma-unstable type that the compiler uses in the expansion of the macro:
```rust
#[unstable(feature = "field_representing_type_raw", issue = "none")]
pub struct FieldRepresentingType<T: ?Sized, const VARIANT: u32, const FIELD: u32> {
_phantom: PhantomData<T>,
}
```
## Explanation of Field Representing Types (FRTs)
FRTs are used for compile-time & trait-level reflection for fields of structs & tuples. Each struct & tuple has a unique compiler-generated type nameable through the `field_of!` macro. This type natively contains information about the field such as the outermost container, type of the field and its offset. Users may implement additional traits on these types in order to record custom information (for example a crate may define a [`PinnableField` trait](https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/field-projection/blob/lang-experiment/src/marker.rs#L9-L23) that records whether the field is structurally pinned).
They are the foundation of field projections, a general operation that's generic over the fields of a struct. This genericism needs to be expressible in the trait system. FRTs make this possible, since an operation generic over fields can just be a function with a generic parameter `F: Field`.
> [!NOTE]
> The approach of field projections has changed considerably since this PR was opened. In the end we might not need FRTs, so this API is highly experimental.
FRTs should act as though they were defined as `struct MyStruct_my_field<StructGenerics>;` next to the struct. So it should be local to the crate defining the struct so that one can implement any trait for the FRT from that crate. The `Field` traits should be implemented by the compiler & populated with correct information (`unsafe` code needs to be able to rely on them being correct).
## TODOs
There are some `FIXME(FRTs)` scattered around the code:
- Diagnostics for `field_of!` can be improved
- `tests/ui/field_representing_types/nonexistent.rs`
- `tests/ui/field_representing_types/non-struct.rs`
- `tests/ui/field_representing_types/offset.rs`
- `tests/ui/field_representing_types/not-field-if-packed.rs`
- `tests/ui/field_representing_types/invalid.rs`
- Simple type alias already seem to work, but might need some extra work in `compiler/rustc_hir_analysis/src/hir_ty_lowering/mod.rs`

Work around a false `err.emit();` type error in rust-analyzer
For whatever reason, rust-analyzer doesn't see that these calls to `err.emit();` are diverging, so the trailing semicolon makes r-a complain about a type mismatch between `()` and some other type.
Removing the trailing semicolon makes no functional difference (because the emit still unwinds the stack), but seems to be enough to allow rust-analyzer to see that emitting an error returns `!` in these cases, which silences the false error.
Implement RFC 3678: Final trait methods
Tracking: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/131179
This PR is based on rust-lang/rust#130802, with some minor changes and conflict resolution.
Futhermore, this PR excludes final methods from the vtable of a dyn Trait.
And some excerpt from the original PR description:
> Implements the surface part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3678.
>
> I'm using the word "method" in the title, but in the diagnostics and the feature gate I used "associated function", since that's more accurate.

Update mgca to use `type const` syntax instead of the `#[type_const]` attribute.
This PR changes the `#[type_const]` attribute to the `type const` syntax for https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/132980.
This will fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/151273 and similar issues, since we need to check `type const` of items before expansion. The move to add a syntax was mentioned here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/151289#issuecomment-3765241397
The first part of this PR adds support by allowing `type const <IDENT>: <TYPE> { = <EXPR> };` syntax in `rustc_parse/src/parser/item.rs`.
The next part since the AST item does not contain enough information to determine if we have a `type const` was rework `ConstItemRhs` into `ConstItemRhsKind` to store the information since we no longer have the attribute acting as a source of extra data/metadata.
The hir node `ConstItemRhsKind` current shape mostly works, except in the case of `TraitItemKind` where it is an option. I initially went about giving `hir::ConstItemRhsKind` a similar form the AST, but it touches a lot more lines of code and files so because of that, the less invasive option was to add a simple boolean flag to `TraitItemKind`.
The forth part of this PR includes adding a query I called `is_rhs_type_const` so that we can handle both local and foreign def_ids.
The fifth aspect of the PR is adding a `mgca_type_const_syntax` feature gate that is checked before expansion. The standard mgca feature gate is ran after expansion. This feature gate allows for conditional compilation (e.g #[cfg(..)]) of the `type const` syntax in nightly without `min_generic_const_args` being enabled.
The last bit is updating all the the tests that used the `#[type_const]` attribute to use the new syntax that failed because of the changes. This is the bulk of touched/edited files in the PR.

Implement MVP for opaque generic const arguments
This is meant to be the interim successor to generic const expressions.
Essentially, const item RHS's will be allowed to do arbitrary const
operations using generics. The limitation is that these const items will
be treated opaquely, like ADTs in nominal typing, such that uses of them
will only be equal if the same const item is referenced. In other words,
two const items with the exact same RHS will not be considered equal.
I also added some logic to check feature gates that depend on others
being enabled (like oGCA depending on mGCA).
### Coherence
During coherence, OGCA consts should be normalized ambiguously because
they are opaque but eventually resolved to a real value. We don't want
two OGCAs that have the same value to be treated as distinct for
coherence purposes. (Just like opaque types.)
This actually doesn't work yet because there are pre-existing
fundamental issues with equate relations involving consts that need to
be normalized. The problem is that we normalize only one layer of the
const item and don't actually process the resulting anon const. Normally
the created inference variable should be handled, which in this case
would cause us to hit the anon const, but that's not happening.
Specifically, `visit_const` on `Generalizer` should be updated to be
similar to `visit_ty`.
