Reduce precedence of expressions that have an outer attr
Previously, `-Zunpretty=expanded` would expand this program as follows:
```rust
#![feature(stmt_expr_attributes)]
macro_rules! repro {
($e:expr) => {
#[allow(deprecated)] $e
};
}
#[derive(Default)]
struct Thing {
#[deprecated]
field: i32,
}
fn main() {
let thing = Thing::default();
let _ = repro!(thing).field;
}
```
```rs
#![feature(prelude_import)]
#![feature(stmt_expr_attributes)]
#[prelude_import]
use std::prelude::rust_2021::*;
#[macro_use]
extern crate std;
struct Thing {
#[deprecated]
field: i32,
}
#[automatically_derived]
impl ::core::default::Default for Thing {
#[inline]
fn default() -> Thing {
Thing { field: ::core::default::Default::default() }
}
}
fn main() {
let thing = Thing::default();
let _ = #[allow(deprecated)] thing.field;
}
```
This is not the correct expansion. The correct output would have `(#[allow(deprecated)] thing).field` with the attribute applying only to `thing`, not to `thing.field`.
The rustc_ast crate contains those things concerned purely with syntax
– that is, the AST ("abstract syntax tree"), along with some definitions for tokens and token streams, data structures/traits for mutating ASTs, and shared definitions for other AST-related parts of the compiler (like the lexer and macro-expansion).
For more information about how these things work in rustc, see the rustc dev guide:
