Arbitrary self types v2: main compiler changes This is the main PR in a series of PRs related to Arbitrary Self Types v2, tracked in #44874. Specifically this is step 7 of the plan [described here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44874#issuecomment-2122179688), for [RFC 3519](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3519). Overall this PR: * Switches from the `Deref` trait to the new `Receiver` trait when the unstable `arbitrary_self_types` feature is enabled (the simple bit) * Introduces new algorithms to spot "shadowing"; that is, the case where a newly-added method in an outer smart pointer might end up overriding a pre-existing method in the pointee (the complex bit). Most of this bit was explored in [this earlier perf-testing PR](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/127812#issuecomment-2236911900). * Lots of tests This should not break compatibility for: * Stable users, where it should have no effect * Users of the existing `arbitrary_self_types` feature (because we implement `Receiver` for `T: Deref`) _unless_ those folks have added methods which may shadow methods in inner types, which we no longer want to allow Subsequent PRs will add better diagnostics. It's probably easiest to review this commit-by-commit. r? `@wesleywiser`
