bors a89ca2c85e Auto merge of #134243 - nnethercote:re-export-more-rustc_span, r=jieyouxu
Re-export more `rustc_span::symbol` things from `rustc_span`.

`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 to `rustc_span::`. This is a 300+ net line of code reduction, mostly because many files with two `use rustc_span` items can be reduced to one.

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.
