37ed7a4438 Add ConstArgKind::Path and make ConstArg its own HIR node
This is a very large commit since a lot needs to be changed in order to
make the tests pass. The salient changes are:

- `ConstArgKind` gets a new `Path` variant, and all const params are now
  represented using it. Non-param paths still use `ConstArgKind::Anon`
  to prevent this change from getting too large, but they will soon use
  the `Path` variant too.

- `ConstArg` gets a distinct `hir_id` field and its own variant in
  `hir::Node`. This affected many parts of the compiler that expected
  the parent of an `AnonConst` to be the containing context (e.g., an
  array repeat expression). They have been changed to check the
  "grandparent" where necessary.

- Some `ast::AnonConst`s now have their `DefId`s created in
  rustc_ast_lowering rather than `DefCollector`. This is because in some
  cases they will end up becoming a `ConstArgKind::Path` instead, which
  has no `DefId`. We have to solve this in a hacky way where we guess
  whether the `AnonConst` could end up as a path const since we can't
  know for sure until after name resolution (`N` could refer to a free
  const or a nullary struct). If it has no chance as being a const
  param, then we create a `DefId` in `DefCollector` -- otherwise we
  decide during ast_lowering. This will have to be updated once all path
  consts use `ConstArgKind::Path`.

- We explicitly use `ConstArgHasType` for array lengths, rather than
  implicitly relying on anon const type feeding -- this is due to the
  addition of `ConstArgKind::Path`.

- Some tests have their outputs changed, but the changes are for the
  most part minor (including removing duplicate or almost-duplicate
  errors). One test now ICEs, but it is for an incomplete, unstable
  feature and is now tracked at #127009.

d8470bb00b Sorting arbitrary constants should not be done, as it relies on DefId ordering, which breaks incremental compilation. 2024-03-21 10:45:30 +00:00

648a35e327 Add ability to transmute with generic consts
Previously if the expression contained generic consts and did not have a directly equivalent
type, transmuting the type in this way was forbidden, despite the two sizes being identical.
Instead, we should be able to lazily tell if the two consts are identical, and if so allow them
to be transmuted.
