Add links to the reference and rust by example for asm! docs and lints
These were previously removed in #91728 due to broken links.
cc ``@ehuss`` since this updates the rust-by-example submodule
Use consistent function parameter order for early context construction and early linting
Rename some functions to make it clear that they do not necessarily work on the whole crate
Change lint message to be stronger for &T -> &mut T transmute
The old message implied that it's only UB if you use the reference to mutate, which (as far as I know) is not true. As in, the following program has UB, and a &T -> &mut T transmute is effectively an `unreachable_unchecked`.
```rust
fn main() {
#[allow(mutable_transmutes)]
unsafe {
let _ = std::mem::transmute::<&i32, &mut i32>(&0);
}
}
```
In the future, it might be a good idea to use the edition system to make this a hard error, since I don't think it is *ever* defined behaviour? Unless we rule that `&UnsafeCell<i32> -> &mut i32` is fine. (That, and you always could just use `.get()`, so you're not losing anything)
Remove `SymbolStr`
This was originally proposed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/74554#discussion_r466203544. As well as removing the icky `SymbolStr` type, it allows the removal of a lot of `&` and `*` occurrences.

They are also removed from the prelude as per the decision in
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87228.
stdarch and compiler-builtins are updated to work with the new, stable
asm! and global_asm! macros.
TraitKind -> Trait
TyAliasKind -> TyAlias
ImplKind -> Impl
FnKind -> Fn
All `*Kind`s in AST are supposed to be enums.
Tuple structs are converted to braced structs for the types above, and fields are reordered in syntactic order.
Also, mutable AST visitor now correctly visit spans in defaultness, unsafety, impl polarity and constness.
This also adjusts the lint docs generation to accept (and ignore) an allow
attribute, rather than expecting the documentation to be immediately followed by
the lint name.
Instead of updating global state to mark attributes as used,
we now explicitly emit a warning when an attribute is used in
an unsupported position. As a side effect, we are to emit more
detailed warning messages (instead of just a generic "unused" message).
`Session.check_name` is removed, since its only purpose was to mark
the attribute as used. All of the callers are modified to use
`Attribute.has_name`
Additionally, `AttributeType::AssumedUsed` is removed - an 'assumed
used' attribute is implemented by simply not performing any checks
in `CheckAttrVisitor` for a particular attribute.
We no longer emit unused attribute warnings for the `#[rustc_dummy]`
attribute - it's an internal attribute used for tests, so it doesn't
mark sense to treat it as 'unused'.
With this commit, a large source of global untracked state is removed.
Associated functions that contain extern indicator or have `#[rustc_std_internal_symbol]` are reachable
Previously these fails to link with ``undefined reference to `foo'``:

<summary>Example 2</summary>
```rs
#![crate_name = "lib"]
#![crate_type = "lib"]
struct AssocFn;
impl AssocFn {
#[no_mangle]
fn foo() {}
}
```
```rs
extern crate lib;
fn main() {
extern "Rust" {
fn foo();
}
unsafe { foo() }
}
```
</details>
But I believe they should link successfully, because this works:
<details>
```rs
#[no_mangle]
fn foo() {}
fn main() {
extern "Rust" {
fn foo();
}
unsafe { foo() }
}
```

This PR fixes the problem, by adding associated functions that have "custom linkage" to `reachable_set`, just like normal functions.
I haven't tested whether #76211 and [Miri](https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/1837) are fixed by this PR yet, but I'm submitting this anyway since this fixes the examples above.
I added a `run-pass` test that combines my two examples above, but I'm not sure if that's the right way to test this. Maybe I should add / modify an existing codegen test (`src/test/codegen/export-no-mangle.rs`?) instead?
