Rollup merge of #74661 - SNCPlay42:lifetime-names-refactor, r=estebank

Refactor `region_name`: add `RegionNameHighlight`

This PR does not change any diagnostics itself, rather it enables further code changes, but I would like to get approval for the refactoring first before making use of it.

In `rustc_mir::borrow_check::diagnostics::region_name`, there is code that allows for, when giving a synthesized name like `'1` to an anonymous lifetime, pointing at e.g. the exact '`&`' that introduces the lifetime.

This PR decouples that code from the specific case of arguments, adding a new enum `RegionNameHighlight`, enabling future changes to use it in other places.

This allows:

* We could change the other `AnonRegionFrom*` variants to use `RegionNameHighlight` to precisely point at where lifetimes are introduced in other locations when they have type annotations, e.g. a closure return `|...| -> &i32`.
  * Because of how async functions are lowered this affects async functions as well, see #74072
* for #74597, we could add a second, optional `RegionNameHighlight` to the `AnonRegionFromArgument` variant that highlights a lifetime in the return type of a function when, due to elision, this is the same as the argument lifetime.
* in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/74497#issuecomment-6606229707 I noticed that a diagnostic was trying to introduce a lifetime `'2` in the opaque type `impl std::future::Future`. The code for the case of arguments has [code to handle cases like this](bbebe7351f/src/librustc_mir/borrow_check/diagnostics/region_name.rs (L365)) but not the others. This refactoring would allow the same code path to handle this.
  * It might be appropriate to add another variant of `RegionNameHighlight` to say something like `lifetime '1 appears in the opaque type impl std::future::Future`.

These are quite a few changes so I thought I would make sure the refactoring is OK before I start making changes that rely on it. :)
