There are identical definitions in `rustc_type_ir` and `rustc_ast`. This commit removes them and places a single definition in `rustc_ast_ir`. This requires adding `rust_span` as a dependency of `rustc_ast_ir`, but means a bunch of silly conversion functions can be removed. The one annoying wrinkle is that the old version had differences in their `Debug` impls, e.g. one printed `u32` while the other printed `U32`. Some compiler error messages rely on the former (yuk), and some clippy output depends on the latter. So the commit also changes clippy to not rely on `Debug` and just implement what it needs itself.
