Replace `rustc_data_structures::thin_vec::ThinVec` with `thin_vec::ThinVec`
`rustc_data_structures::thin_vec::ThinVec` looks like this:
```
pub struct ThinVec<T>(Option<Box<Vec<T>>>);
```
It's just a zero word if the vector is empty, but requires two
allocations if it is non-empty. So it's only usable in cases where the
vector is empty most of the time.
This commit removes it in favour of `thin_vec::ThinVec`, which is also
word-sized, but stores the length and capacity in the same allocation as
the elements. It's good in a wider variety of situation, e.g. in enum
variants where the vector is usually/always non-empty.
The commit also:
- Sorts some `Cargo.toml` dependency lists, to make additions easier.
- Sorts some `use` item lists, to make additions easier.
- Changes `clean_trait_ref_with_bindings` to take a
`ThinVec<TypeBinding>` rather than a `&[TypeBinding]`, because this
avoid some unnecessary allocations.

In some places we use `Vec<Attribute>` and some places we use
`ThinVec<Attribute>` (a.k.a. `AttrVec`). This results in various points
where we have to convert between `Vec` and `ThinVec`.
This commit changes the places that use `Vec<Attribute>` to use
`AttrVec`. A lot of this is mechanical and boring, but there are
some interesting parts:
- It adds a few new methods to `ThinVec`.
- It implements `MapInPlace` for `ThinVec`, and introduces a macro to
avoid the repetition of this trait for `Vec`, `SmallVec`, and
`ThinVec`.
Overall, it makes the code a little nicer, and has little effect on
performance. But it is a precursor to removing
`rustc_data_structures::thin_vec::ThinVec` and replacing it with
`thin_vec::ThinVec`, which is implemented more efficiently.
Don't derive `PartialEq::ne`.
Currently we skip deriving `PartialEq::ne` for C-like (fieldless) enums
and empty structs, thus reyling on the default `ne`. This behaviour is
unnecessarily conservative, because the `PartialEq` docs say this:
> Implementations must ensure that eq and ne are consistent with each other:
>
> `a != b` if and only if `!(a == b)` (ensured by the default
> implementation).
This means that the default implementation (`!(a == b)`) is always good
enough. So this commit changes things such that `ne` is never derived.
The motivation for this change is that not deriving `ne` reduces compile
times and binary sizes.
Observable behaviour may change if a user has defined a type `A` with an
inconsistent `PartialEq` and then defines a type `B` that contains an
`A` and also derives `PartialEq`. Such code is already buggy and
preserving bug-for-bug compatibility isn't necessary.
Two side-effects of the change:
- There is only one error message produced for types where `PartialEq`
cannot be derived, instead of two.
- For coverage reports, some warnings about generated `ne` methods not
being executed have disappeared.
Both side-effects seem fine, and possibly preferable.

Currently `#![forbid(unused_qualifications)]` is incompatible with all
derive's because we add `#[allow(unused_qualifications)]` in all
generated impl's.
Currently, for the enums and comparison traits we always check the tag
for equality before doing anything else. This is a bit clumsy. This
commit changes things so that the tags are handled very much like a
zeroth field in the enum.
For `eq`/ne` this makes the code slightly cleaner.
For `partial_cmp` and `cmp` it's a more notable change: in the case
where the tags aren't equal, instead of having a tag equality check
followed by a tag comparison, it just does a single tag comparison.
The commit also improves how `Hash` works for enums: instead of having
duplicated code to hash the tag for every arm within the match, we do
it just once before the match.
All this required replacing the `EnumNonMatchingCollapsed` value with a
new `EnumTag` value.
For fieldless enums the new code is particularly improved. All the code
now produced is close to optimal, being very similar to what you'd write
by hand.
Use `tag` in names of things referring to tags, instead of the
mysterious `vi`.
Also change `arg_N` in output to `argN`, which has the same length as
`self` and so results in nicer vertical alignments.
By producing `&T` expressions for fields instead of `T`. This matches
what the existing comments (e.g. on `FieldInfo`) claim is happening, and
it's also what most of the trait-specific code needs.
The exception is `PartialEq`, which needs `T` expressions for lots of
special case error messaging to work. So we now convert the `&T` back to
a `T` for `PartialEq`.
E.g. improving code like this:
```
match &*self {
&Enum1::Single { x: ref __self_0 } => {
::core:#️⃣:Hash::hash(&*__self_0, state)
}
}
```
to this:
```
match self {
Enum1::Single { x: __self_0 } => {
::core:#️⃣:Hash::hash(&*__self_0, state)
}
}
```
by removing the `&*`, the `&`, and the `ref`.
I suspect the current generated code predates deref-coercion.
The commit also gets rid of `use_temporaries`, instead passing around
`always_copy`, which makes things a little clearer. And it fixes up some
comments.
`cs_fold` has four distinct cases, covered by three different function
arguments:
- first field
- combine current field with previous results
- no fields
- non-matching enum variants
This commit clarifies things by replacing the three function arguments
with one that takes a new `CsFold` type with four slightly different)
cases
- single field
- combine result for current field with results for previous fields
- no fields
- non-matching enum variants
This makes the code shorter and clearer.
When deriving functions for zero-variant enums, we just generated a
function body that calls `std::instrincs::unreachable`. There is a large
comment with some not-very-useful historical discussion about
alternatives, including some discussion of feature-gating zero-variant
enums, which is clearly irrelevant today.
This commit cuts the comment down greatly.
The deriving code has some complex parts involving iterations over
selflike args and also fields within structs and enum variants.
The return types for a few functions demonstrate this:
- `TraitDef::create_{struct_pattern,enum_variant_pattern}` returns a
`(P<ast::Pat>, Vec<(Span, Option<Ident>, P<Expr>)>)`
- `TraitDef::create_struct_field_accesses` returns a `Vec<(Span,
Option<Ident>, P<Expr>)>`.
This results in per-field data stored within per-selflike-arg data, with
lots of repetition within the per-field data elements. This then has to
be "transposed" in two places (`expand_struct_method_body` and
`expand_enum_method_body`) into per-self-like-arg data stored within
per-field data. It's all quite clumsy and confusing.
This commit rearranges things greatly. Data is obtained in the needed
form up-front, avoiding the need for transposition. Also, various
functions are split, removed, and added, to make things clearer and
avoid tuple return values.
The diff is hard to read, which reflects the messiness of the original
code -- there wasn't an easy way to break these changes into small
pieces. (Sorry!) It's a net reduction of 35 lines and a readability
improvement. The generated code is unchanged.
The deriving code has inconsistent terminology to describe args.
In some places it distinguishes between:
- the `&self` arg (if present), versus
- all other args.
In other places it distinguishes between:
- the `&self` arg (if present) and any other arguments with the same
type (in practice there is at most one, e.g. in `PartialEq::eq`),
versus
- all other args.
The terms "self_args" and "nonself_args" are sometimes used for the
former distinction, and sometimes for the latter. "args" is also
sometimes used for "all other args".
This commit makes the code consistently uses "self_args"/"nonself_args"
for the former and "selflike_args"/"nonselflike_args" for the latter.
This change makes the code easier to read.
The commit also adds a panic on an impossible path (the `Self_` case) in
`extract_arg_details`.
We currently do a match on the comparison of every field in a struct or
enum variant. But the last field has a degenerate match like this:
```
match ::core::cmp::Ord::cmp(&self.y, &other.y) {
::core::cmp::Ordering::Equal =>
::core::cmp::Ordering::Equal,
cmp => cmp,
},
```
This commit changes it to this:
```
::core::cmp::Ord::cmp(&self.y, &other.y),
```
This is fairly straightforward thanks to the existing `cs_fold1`
function.
The commit also removes the `cs_fold` function which is no longer used.
(Note: there is some repetition now in `cs_cmp` and `cs_partial_cmp`. I
will remove that in a follow-up PR.)
All derive ops currently use match-destructuring to access fields. This
is reasonable for enums, but sub-optimal for structs. E.g.:
```
fn eq(&self, other: &Point) -> bool {
match *other {
Self { x: ref __self_1_0, y: ref __self_1_1 } =>
match *self {
Self { x: ref __self_0_0, y: ref __self_0_1 } =>
(*__self_0_0) == (*__self_1_0) &&
(*__self_0_1) == (*__self_1_1),
},
}
}
```
This commit changes derive ops on structs to use field access instead, e.g.:
```
fn eq(&self, other: &Point) -> bool {
self.x == other.x && self.y == other.y
}
```
This is faster to compile, results in smaller binaries, and is simpler to
generate. Unfortunately, we have to keep the old pattern generating code around
for `repr(packed)` structs because something like `&self.x` (which doesn't show
up in `PartialEq` ops, but does show up in `Debug` and `Hash` ops) isn't
allowed. But this commit at least changes those cases to use let-destructuring
instead of match-destructuring, e.g.:
```
fn hash<__H: ::core:#️⃣:Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H) -> () {
{
let Self(ref __self_0_0) = *self;
{ ::core:#️⃣:Hash::hash(&(*__self_0_0), state) }
}
}
```
There are some unnecessary blocks remaining in the generated code, but I
will fix them in a follow-up PR.
The existing derive code allows for various possibilities that aren't
needed in practice, which complicates the code. There are only a few
auto-derived traits and new ones are unlikely, so this commit simplifies
things.
- `PtrTy` has been eliminated. The `Raw` variant was never used, and the
lifetime for the `Borrowed` variant was always `None`. That left just
the mutability field, which has been inlined as necessary.
- `MethodDef::explicit_self` was a confusing `Option<Option<PtrTy>>`.
Indicating either `&self` or nothing. It's now a `bool`.
- `borrowed_self` is renamed as `self_ref`.
- `Ty::Ptr` is renamed to `Ty::Ref`.
