Auto merge of #118958 - c410-f3r:concat-again, r=petrochenkov

Add a new concat metavar expr

Revival of #111930

Giving it another try now that #117050 was merged.

With the new rules, meta-variable expressions must be referenced with a dollar sign (`$`) and this can cause misunderstands with `$concat`.

```rust
macro_rules! foo {
    ( $bar:ident ) => {
        const ${concat(VAR, bar)}: i32 = 1;
    };
}

// Will produce `VARbar` instead of `VAR_123`
foo!(_123);
```

In other words, forgetting the dollar symbol can produce undesired outputs.
