Add SEMICOLON_IN_EXPRESSIONS_FROM_MACROS lint

cc #79813

This PR adds an allow-by-default future-compatibility lint
`SEMICOLON_IN_EXPRESSIONS_FROM_MACROS`. It fires when a trailing semicolon in a
macro body is ignored due to the macro being used in expression
position:

```rust
macro_rules! foo {
    () => {
        true; // WARN
    }
}

fn main() {
    let val = match true {
        true => false,
        _ => foo!()
    };
}
```

The lint takes its level from the macro call site, and
can be allowed for a particular macro by adding
`#[allow(semicolon_in_expressions_from_macros)]`.

The lint is set to warn for all internal rustc crates (when being built
by a stage1 compiler). After the next beta bump, we can enable
the lint for the bootstrap compiler as well.

/// The `semicolon_in_expressions_from_macros` lint detects trailing semicolons
/// in macro bodies when the macro is invoked in expression position.
/// This was previous accepted, but is being phased out.
///
/// ### Example
///
/// ```rust,compile_fail
/// #![deny(semicolon_in_expressions_from_macros)]
/// macro_rules! foo {
/// () => { true; }
/// }
///
/// fn main() {
/// let val = match true {
/// true => false,
/// _ => foo!()
/// };
/// }
/// ```
///
/// {{produces}}
///
/// ### Explanation
///
/// Previous, Rust ignored trailing semicolon in a macro
/// body when a macro was invoked in expression position.
/// However, this makes the treatment of semicolons in the language
/// inconsistent, and could lead to unexpected runtime behavior
/// in some circumstances (e.g. if the macro author expects
/// a value to be dropped).
///
/// This is a [future-incompatible] lint to transition this
/// to a hard error in the future. See [issue #79813] for more details.
///
