rustdoc: Replaces fn main search and extern crate search with proper parsing during doctests.
Fixes#21299.
Fixes#33731.
Let me know if there's any additional changes you'd like made!
This commit avoids an allocation when parsing any float and integer
literals that don't involved underscores.
This reduces the number of allocations done for the `tuple-stress`
benchmark by 10%, reducing its instruction count by just under 1%.
syntax: Optimize some literal parsing
Currently in the `wasm-bindgen` project we have a very very large crate that's
procedurally generated, `web-sys`. To generate this crate we parse all of a
browser's WebIDL and we then generate bindings for all of the APIs contained
within.
The resulting Rust file is 18MB large (wow!) and currently takes a very long
time to compile in debug mode. On the nightly compiler a *debug* build takes 90s
for the crate to finish. I was curious what was taking so long and upon
investigating a *massive* portion of the time was spent in the `lit_token`
method of the compiler, primarily formatting strings via `format!`.
Upon some more investigation it looks like the `byte_str_lit` was allocating an
error message once per byte, causing a very large number of allocations to
happen for large literals, of which wasm-bindgen generates quite a few (some are
MB large).
This commit fixes the issue by lazily allocating the error message, only doing
so if the error message is actually needed (which should be never). As a result,
the debug mode compilation time for our `web-sys` crate decreased from 90s to
20s, a very nice improvement! (although we've still got some work to do).

async/await
This PR implements `async`/`await` syntax for `async fn` in Rust 2015 and `async` closures and `async` blocks in Rust 2018 (tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/50547). Limitations: non-`move` async closures with arguments are currently not supported, nor are `async fn` with multiple different input lifetimes. These limitations are not fundamental and will be removed in the future, however I'd like to go ahead and get this PR merged so we can start experimenting with this in combination with futures 0.3.
Based on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/51414.

This is gated on edition 2018 & the `async_await` feature gate.
The parser will accept `async fn` and `async unsafe fn` as fn
items. Along the same lines as `const fn`, only `async unsafe fn`
is permitted, not `unsafe async fn`.The parser will not accept
`async` functions as trait methods.
To do a little code clean up, four fields of the function type
struct have been merged into the new `FnHeader` struct: constness,
asyncness, unsafety, and ABI.
Also, a small bug in HIR printing is fixed: it previously printed
`const unsafe fn` as `unsafe const fn`, which is grammatically
incorrect.
In the common case, the string value in a string literal Token is the
same as the string value in a string literal LitKind. (The exception is
when escapes or \r are involved.) This patch takes advantage of that to
avoid calling str_lit() and re-interning the string in that case. This
speeds up incremental builds for a few of the rustc-benchmarks, the best
by 3%.
`char_lit` uses an allocation in order to ignore '_' chars in \u{...}
literals. This patch changes it to not do that by processing the chars
more directly.
This improves various rustc-perf benchmark measurements by up to 6%,
particularly regex, futures, clap, coercions, hyper, and encoding.
