Remove `DiagMessage::Translated` in favour of `DiagMessage::Str`
This variant did not seem to be meaningfully different from `DiagMessage::Str`.
Am I missing something or was this just an oversight?

remove duplicated columns from `rustc_error_code::error_codes!`
Possible because of rust-lang/rust#146308 ~~, but currently still blocked on the next stage0 bump~~.
refactor: Move to anstream + anstyle for styling
`rustc` uses [`termcolor`](https://crates.io/crates/termcolor) for styling and writing, while `annotate-snippets` uses [`anstyle`](https://crates.io/crates/anstyle) for styling and currently writes directly to a `String`. When rendering directly to a terminal, there isn't/shouldn't be any differences. Still, there are differences in the escape sequences, which leads to slightly different output in JSON and SVG tests. As part of my work to have `rustc` use `annotate-snippets`, and to reduce the test differences between the two, I switched `rustc` to use `anstlye` and [`anstream`](https://crates.io/crates/anstream) for styling and writing.
The first commit migrates to `anstyle` and `anstream` and notably does not change the output. This is because it includes extra formatting to ensure that `anstyle` + `anstream` match the current output exactly. Most of this code is unnecessary, as it adds redundant resets or uses 256-color (8-bit) when it could be using 4-bit color. The subsequent commits remove this extra formatting while maintaining the correct output when rendered.
[Zulip discussion](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/147480-t-compiler.2Fdiagnostics/topic/annotate-snippets.20hurdles)
Lint buffering currently relies on a giant enum `BuiltinLintDiag`
containing all the lints that might potentially get buffered. In
addition to being an unwieldy enum in a central crate, this also makes
`rustc_lint_defs` a build bottleneck: it depends on various types from
various crates (with a steady pressure to add more), and many crates
depend on it.
Having all of these variants in a separate crate also prevents detecting
when a variant becomes unused, which we can do with a dedicated type
defined and used in the same crate.
Refactor this to use a dyn trait, to allow using `LintDiagnostic` types
directly.
This requires boxing, but all of this is already on the slow path
(emitting an error).
Because the existing `BuiltinLintDiag` requires some additional types in
order to decorate some variants, which are only available later in
`rustc_lint`, use an enum `DecorateDiagCompat` to handle both the `dyn
LintDiagnostic` case and the `BuiltinLintDiag` case.
Some crates depend on `rustc_hir` but only want `HirId` and similar id
types. `rustc_hir` is a heavy dependency, since it pulls in
`rustc_target`. Split these types out into their own crate
`rustc_hir_id`.
This allows `rustc_errors` to drop its direct dependency on `rustc_hir`.
(`rustc_errors` still depends on `rustc_hir` indirectly through
`rustc_lint_defs`; a subsequent commit will fix that.)
`rustc_errors` depends on numerous crates, solely to implement its
`IntoDiagArg` trait on types from those crates. Many crates depend on
`rustc_errors`, and it's on the critical path.
We can't swap things around to make all of those crates depend on
`rustc_errors` instead, because `rustc_errors` would end up in
dependency cycles.
Instead, move `IntoDiagArg` into `rustc_error_messages`, which has far
fewer dependencies, and then have most of these crates depend on
`rustc_error_messages`.
This allows `rustc_errors` to drop dependencies on several crates,
including the large `rustc_target`.
(This doesn't fully reduce dependency chains yet, as `rustc_errors`
still depends on `rustc_hir` which depends on `rustc_target`. That will
get fixed in a subsequent commit.)
Implement initial support for timing sections (`--json=timings`)
This PR implements initial support for emitting high-level compilation section timings. The idea is to provide a very lightweight way of emitting durations of various compilation sections (frontend, backend, linker, or on a more granular level macro expansion, typeck, borrowck, etc.). The ultimate goal is to stabilize this output (in some form), make Cargo pass `--json=timings` and then display this information in the HTML output of `cargo build --timings`, to make it easier to quickly profile "what takes so long" during the compilation of a Cargo project. I would personally also like if Cargo printed some of this information in the interactive `cargo build` output, but the `build --timings` use-case is the main one.
Now, this information is already available with several other sources, but I don't think that we can just use them as they are, which is why I proposed a new way of outputting this data (`--json=timings`):
- This data is available under `-Zself-profile`, but that is very expensive and forever unstable. It's just a too big of a hammer to tell us the duration it took to run the linker.
- It could also be extracted with `-Ztime-passes`. That is pretty much "for free" in terms of performance, and it can be emitted in a structured form to JSON via `-Ztime-passes-format=json`. I guess that one alternative might be to stabilize this flag in some form, but that form might just be `--json=timings`? I guess what we could do in theory is take the already emitted time passes and reuse them for `--json=timings`. Happy to hear suggestions!
I'm sending this PR mostly for a vibeck, to see if the way I implemented it is passable. There are some things to figure out:
- How do we represent the sections? Originally I wanted to output `{ section, duration }`, but then I realized that it might be more useful to actually emit `start` and `end` events. Both because it enables to see the output incrementally (in case compilation takes a long time and you read the outputs directly, or Cargo decides to show this data in `cargo build` some day in the future), and because it makes it simpler to represent hierarchy (see below). The timestamps currently emit microseconds elapsed from a predetermined point in time (~start of rustc), but otherwise they are fully opaque, and should be only ever used to calculate the duration using `end - start`. We could also precompute the duration for the user in the `end` event, but that would require doing more work in rustc, which I would ideally like to avoid :P
- Do we want to have some form of hierarchy? I think that it would be nice to show some more granular sections rather than just frontend/backend/linker (e.g. macro expansion, typeck and borrowck as a part of the frontend). But for that we would need some way of representing hierarchy. A simple way would be something like `{ parent: "frontend" }`, but I realized that with start/end timestamps we get the hierarchy "for free", only the client will need to reconstruct it from the order of start/end events (e.g. `start A`, `start B` means that `B` is a child of `A`).
- What exactly do we want to stabilize? This is probably a question for later. I think that we should definitely stabilize the format of the emitted JSON objects, and *maybe* some specific section names (but we should also make it clear that they can be missing, e.g. you don't link everytime you invoke `rustc`).
The PR be tested e.g. with `rustc +stage1 src/main.rs --json=timings --error-format=json -Zunstable-options` on a crate without dependencies (it is not easy to use `--json` with stock Cargo, because it also passes this flag to `rustc`, so this will later need Cargo integration to be usable with it).

r? ``@nnethercote``
This commit adds a lint to prevent the use of rustc_type_ir in random
compiler crates, except for type system internals traits, which are
explicitly allowed. Moreover, this fixes diagnostic_items() to include
the CRATE_OWNER_ID, otherwise rustc_diagnostic_item attribute is ignored
on the crate root.
