`UsePath` contains a `SmallVec<[Res; 3]>`. This holds up to three `Res`
results, one per namespace (type, value, or macro). `lower_import_res`
takes a `PerNS<Option<Res<NodeId>>>` result and lowers it into the
`SmallVec`. This is pretty weird. The input `PerNS` makes it clear which
`Res` belongs to which namespace, but the `SmallVec` throws that
information away.
And code that operates on the `SmallVec` tends to use iteration (or even
just grabbing the first entry!) without knowing which namespace the
`Res` belongs to. Even weirder! Also, `SmallVec` is an overly flexible
type to use here, because it can contain any number of elements (even
though it's optimized for 3 in this case).
This commit changes `UsePath` so it also contains a
`PerNS<Option<Res<HirId>>>`. This type preserves more information and is
more self-documenting. The commit also changes a lot of the use sites to
access the result for a particular namespace. E.g. if you're looking up
a trait, it will be in the `Res` for the type namespace if it's present;
it's silly to look in the `Res` for the value namespace or macro
namespace. Overall I find the new code much easier to understand.
However, some use sites still iterate. These now use `present_items`
because that filters out the `None` results.
Also, `redundant_pub_crate.rs` gets a bigger change. A
`UseKind:ListStem` item gets no `Res` results, which means the old `all`
call in `is_not_macro_export` would succeed (because `all` succeeds on
an empty iterator) and the `ListStem` would be ignored. This is what we
want, but was more by luck than design. The new code detects `ListStem`
explicitly. The commit generalizes the name of that function
accordingly.
Finally, the commit also removes the `use_path` arena, because
`PerNS<Option<Res>>` impls `Copy` (unlike `SmallVec`) and it can be
allocated in the arena shared by all `Copy` types.
PR 138515, we insert a placeholder attribute so that checks for attributes can still know about the placement of `cfg` attributes. When we suggest removing items with `cfg_attr`s (fix Issue 56328) and make them verbose. We tweak the wording of the existing "unused `extern crate`" lint.

`ast::Item` has an `ident` field.
- It's always non-empty for these item kinds: `ExternCrate`, `Static`,
`Const`, `Fn`, `Mod`, `TyAlias`, `Enum`, `Struct`, `Union`,
`Trait`, `TraitAlias`, `MacroDef`, `Delegation`.
- It's always empty for these item kinds: `Use`, `ForeignMod`,
`GlobalAsm`, `Impl`, `MacCall`, `DelegationMac`.
There is a similar story for `AssocItemKind` and `ForeignItemKind`.
Some sites that handle items check for an empty ident, some don't. This
is a very C-like way of doing things, but this is Rust, we have sum
types, we can do this properly and never forget to check for the
exceptional case and never YOLO possibly empty identifiers (or possibly
dummy spans) around and hope that things will work out.
The commit is large but it's mostly obvious plumbing work. Some notable
things.
- `ast::Item` got 8 bytes bigger. This could be avoided by boxing the
fields within some of the `ast::ItemKind` variants (specifically:
`Struct`, `Union`, `Enum`). I might do that in a follow-up; this
commit is big enough already.
- For the visitors: `FnKind` no longer needs an `ident` field because
the `Fn` within how has one.
- In the parser, the `ItemInfo` typedef is no longer needed. It was used
in various places to return an `Ident` alongside an `ItemKind`, but
now the `Ident` (if present) is within the `ItemKind`.
- In a few places I renamed identifier variables called `name` (or
`foo_name`) as `ident` (or `foo_ident`), to better match the type, and
because `name` is normally used for `Symbol`s. It's confusing to see
something like `foo_name.name`.
This fixes two problems with the autofixes for the `unused_imports`
lint:
- `use std::collections::{HashMap, self as coll};` would suggest, when
`HashMap` is unused, the incorrect `use std::collections::self as coll;`
which does not compile.
- `use std::borrow::{self, Cow};` would suggest, when `self` is unused,
`use std::borrow::{Cow};`, which contains unnecessary brackets.
`rustc_span::symbol` defines some things that are re-exported from
`rustc_span`, such as `Symbol` and `sym`. But it doesn't re-export some
closely related things such as `Ident` and `kw`. So you can do `use
rustc_span::{Symbol, sym}` but you have to do `use
rustc_span::symbol::{Ident, kw}`, which is inconsistent for no good
reason.
This commit re-exports `Ident`, `kw`, and `MacroRulesNormalizedIdent`,
and changes many `rustc_span::symbol::` qualifiers in `compiler/` to
`rustc_span::`. This is a 200+ net line of code reduction, mostly
because many files with two `use rustc_span` items can be reduced to
one.
`rustc_resolve` allocates many things in `ResolverArenas`. The lifetime
used for references into the arena is mostly `'a`, and sometimes `'b`.
This commit changes it to `'ra`, which is much more descriptive. The
commit also changes the order of lifetimes on a couple of structs so
that '`ra` is second last, before `'tcx`, and does other minor
renamings such as `'r` to `'a`.
Translation of the lint message happens when the actual diagnostic is
created, not when the lint is buffered. Generating the message from
BuiltinLintDiag ensures that all required data to construct the message
is preserved in the LintBuffer, eventually allowing the messages to be
moved to fluent.
Remove the `msg` field from BufferedEarlyLint, it is either generated
from the data in the BuiltinLintDiag or stored inside
BuiltinLintDiag::Normal.

For example unnecessary imports in std::prelude that can be eliminated:
```rust
use std::option::Option::Some;//~ WARNING the item `Some` is imported redundantly
use std::option::Option::None; //~ WARNING the item `None` is imported redundantly
```
Currently a `{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage` can be created from any type that
impls `Into<String>`. That includes `&str`, `String`, and `Cow<'static,
str>`, which are reasonable. It also includes `&String`, which is pretty
weird, and results in many places making unnecessary allocations for
patterns like this:
```
self.fatal(&format!(...))
```
This creates a string with `format!`, takes a reference, passes the
reference to `fatal`, which does an `into()`, which clones the
reference, doing a second allocation. Two allocations for a single
string, bleh.
This commit changes the `From` impls so that you can only create a
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage` from `&str`, `String`, or `Cow<'static,
str>`. This requires changing all the places that currently create one
from a `&String`. Most of these are of the `&format!(...)` form
described above; each one removes an unnecessary static `&`, plus an
allocation when executed. There are also a few places where the existing
use of `&String` was more reasonable; these now just use `clone()` at
the call site.
As well as making the code nicer and more efficient, this is a step
towards possibly using `Cow<'static, str>` in
`{D,Subd}iagnosticMessage::{Str,Eager}`. That would require changing
the `From<&'a str>` impls to `From<&'static str>`, which is doable, but
I'm not yet sure if it's worthwhile.
