c-variadic: allow c-variadic inherent and trait methods
tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44930
Continuing the work of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/146342, allow inherent and trait methods to be c-variadic. However, a trait that contains a c-variadic method is no longer dyn-compatible.
There is, presumably, some way to make c-variadic methods dyn-compatible. However currently, we don't have confidence that it'll work reliably: when methods from a `dyn` object are cast to a function pointer, a `ReifyShim` is created. If that shim is c-variadic, it would need to forward the C variable argument list.
That does appear to work, because the `va_list` is not represented in MIR at all in this case, so the registers from the call site are untouched by the shim and can be read by the actual implementation. That just does not seem like a solid implementation.
Also, intuitively, why would c-variadic function, primarily needed for FFI, need to be used with `dyn` objects at all? We can revisit this limitation if a need arises.

but a C-variadic method makes a trait dyn-incompatible. That is because
methods from dyn traits, when cast to a function pointer, create a shim.
That shim can't really forward the c-variadic arguments.

While reviewing rust-lang/rust#142633 I overlooked a few details because I was kind of excited.

Fix some comments and related types and locals where it is obvious, e.g.
- bare_fn -> fn_ptr
- LifetimeBinderKind::BareFnType -> LifetimeBinderKind::FnPtrType

New const traits syntax
This PR only affects the AST and doesn't actually change anything semantically.
All occurrences of `~const` outside of libcore have been replaced by `[const]`. Within libcore we have to wait for rustfmt to be bumped in the bootstrap compiler. This will happen "automatically" (when rustfmt is run) during the bootstrap bump, as rustfmt converts `~const` into `[const]`. After this we can remove the `~const` support from the parser
Caveat discovered during impl: there is no legacy bare trait object recovery for `[const] Trait` as that snippet in type position goes down the slice /array parsing code and will error
r? ``@fee1-dead``
cc ``@nikomatsakis`` ``@traviscross`` ``@compiler-errors``
It's very old (added in #12087). It's strange, and it's not clear what
its use cases are. It only works with the crate root file because it
runs before expansion. I suspect it won't be missed.
Reorder trait bound modifiers *after* `for<...>` binder in trait bounds
This PR suggests changing the grammar of trait bounds from:
```
[CONSTNESS] [ASYNCNESS] [?] [BINDER] [TRAIT_PATH]
const async ? for<'a> Sized
```
to
```
([BINDER] [CONSTNESS] [ASYNCNESS] | [?]) [TRAIT_PATH]
```
i.e., either
```
? Sized
```
or
```
for<'a> const async Sized
```
(but not both)
### Why?
I think it's strange that the binder applies "more tightly" than the `?` trait polarity. This becomes even weirder when considering that we (or at least, I) want to have `async` trait bounds expressed like:
```
where T: for<'a> async Fn(&'a ()) -> i32,
```
and not:
```
where T: async for<'a> Fn(&'a ()) -> i32,
```
### Fallout
No crates on crater use this syntax, presumably because it's literally useless. This will require modifying the reference grammar, though.
### Alternatives
If this is not desirable, then we can alternatively keep parsing `for<'a>` after the `?` but deprecate it with either an FCW (or an immediate hard error), and begin parsing `for<'a>` *before* the `?`.
Support C23's Variadics Without a Named Parameter
Fixes#123773
This PR removes the static check that disallowed extern functions
with ellipsis (varargs) as the only parameter since this is now
valid in C23.
This will not break any existing code as mentioned in the proposal
document: https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2975.pdf.
Also, adds a doc comment for `check_decl_cvariadic_pos()` and
fixes the name of the function (`varadic` -> `variadic`).
