Rollup merge of #146025 - Enselic:big-array-debuginfo-span, r=wesleywiser
compiler: Include span of too huge array with `-Cdebuginfo=2`

We have a few ui tests to ensure we emit an error if we encounter too big arrays. Before this fix, compiling the tests with `-Cdebuginfo=2` would not include the spans of the instantiation sites, because the error is then emitted from a different code path that does not include the span.

Propagate the span to the error also in the debuginfo case, so the tests passes regardless of debuginfo level.

r? ``@wesleywiser`` since this is a natural continuation of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/145967 that you approved (thanks!).

cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/61117 since this takes is one step closer to increasing `rust.debuginfo-level-tests` to `2` in the **x86_64-gnu-debug** CI job.

As can be seen, the span info is missing with debuginfo=2 without the fix.

The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR, and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code that runs towards the end of the compilation process.

For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
