We now make `'empty` indexed by a universe index, resulting
in a region lattice like this:
```
static ----------+-----...------+ (greatest)
| | |
early-bound and | |
free regions | |
| | |
scope regions | |
| | |
empty(root) placeholder(U1) |
| / |
| / placeholder(Un)
empty(U1) -- /
| /
... /
| /
empty(Un) -------- (smallest)
```
Therefore, `exists<A> { forall<B> { B: A } }` is now unprovable,
because A must be at least Empty(U1) and B is placeholder(U2), and hence
the two regions are unrelated.
Rustdoc mutability removal
Fixes#67470.
As discussed in another PR, the `clean::Mutability` type in rustdoc is useless. So let's remove it!

Add simpler entry points to const eval for common usages.
I found the `tcx.const_eval` API to be complex/awkward to work with, because of the inherent complexity from all of the different situations it is called from. Though it mainly used in one of the following ways:
- Evaluates the value of a constant without any substitutions, e.g. evaluating a static, discriminant, etc.
- Evaluates the value of a resolved instance of a constant. this happens when evaluating unevaluated constants or normalising trait constants.
- Evaluates a promoted constant.
This PR adds three new functions `const_eval_mono`, `const_eval_resolve`, and `const_eval_promoted` to `TyCtxt`, which each cater to one of the three ways `tcx.const_eval`
is normally used.
Allocate HIR on an arena 1/4
This PR is the first in a series of 4, aiming at allocating the HIR on an arena, as a memory optimisation.
1. This first PR lays the groundwork and migrates some low-hanging fruits.
2. The second PR will migrate `hir::Expr`, `hir::Pat` and related.
3. The third PR will migrate `hir::Ty` and related.
4. The final PR will be dedicated to eventual cleanups.
In order to make the transition as gradual as possible, some lowering routines receive `Box`-allocated data and move it into the arena. This is a bit wasteful, but hopefully temporary.
Nonetheless, special care should be taken to avoid double arena allocations.

Make GATs less ICE-prone.
After this PR simple lifetime-generic associated types can now be used in a compiling program. There are two big limitations:
* #30472 has not been addressed in any way (see src/test/ui/generic-associated-types/iterable.rs)
* Using type- and const-generic associated types errors because bound types and constants aren't handled by trait solving.
* The errors are technically non-fatal, but they happen in a [part of the compiler](4abb0ad273/src/librustc_typeck/lib.rs (L298)) that fairly aggressively stops compiling on errors.

support issue = "none" in unstable attributes
This works towards fixing #41260.
This PR allows the use of `issue = "none"` in unstable attributes and makes changes to internally store the issue number as an `Option<NonZeroU32>`. For example:
```rust
#[unstable(feature = "unstable_test_feature", issue = "none")]
fn unstable_issue_none() {}
```
It was not made optional because feedback seen here #60860 suggested that people might forget the issue field if it was optional.
I could not remove the current uses of `issue = "0"` (of which there are a lot) because the stage 0 compiler expects the old syntax. Once this is available in the stage 0 compiler we can replace all uses of `"0"` with `"none"` and no longer allow `"0"`. This is my first time contributing, so I'm not sure what the protocol is with two-part things like this, so some guidance would be appreciated.
