Disallow ambiguous attributes on expressions
This implements the suggestion in [#15701](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/15701#issuecomment-2033124217) to disallow ambiguous outer attributes on expressions. This should resolve one of the concerns blocking the stabilization of `stmt_expr_attributes`.
The current message for "`->` used for field access" is the following:
```rust
error: expected one of `!`, `.`, `::`, `;`, `?`, `{`, `}`, or an operator, found `->`
--> src/main.rs:2:6
|
2 | a->b;
| ^^ expected one of 8 possible tokens
```
(playground link[1])
This PR tries to address this by adding a dedicated error message and recovery. The proposed error message is:
```
error: `->` used for field access or method call
--> ./tiny_test.rs:2:6
|
2 | a->b;
| ^^ help: try using `.` instead
|
= help: the `.` operator will dereference the value if needed
```
(feel free to bikeshed it as much as necessary)

For the `MiddleDot` case, current behaviour:
- For a case like `1.2`, `sym1` is `1` and `sym2` is `2`, and `self.token`
holds `1.2`.
- It creates a new ident token from `sym1` that it puts into `self.token`.
- Then it does `bump_with` with a new dot token, which moves the `sym1`
token into `prev_token`.
- Then it does `bump_with` with a new ident token from `sym2`, which moves the
`dot` token into `prev_token` and discards the `sym1` token.
- Then it does `bump`, which puts whatever is next into `self.token`,
moves the `sym2` token into `prev_token`, and discards the `dot` token
altogether.
New behaviour:
- Skips creating and inserting the `sym1` and dot tokens, because they are
unnecessary.
- This also demonstrates that the comment about `Spacing::Alone` is
wrong -- that value is never used. That comment was added in #77250,
and AFAICT it has always been incorrect.
The commit also expands comments. I found this code hard to read
previously, the examples in comments make it easier.
Pass in the span for the field rather than using `prev_token`.
Also rename it `mk_expr_tuple_field_access`, because it doesn't do any
actual parsing, it just creates an expression with what it's given.
Not much of a clarity win by itself, but unlocks additional subsequent
simplifications.
Experimental feature postfix match
This has a basic experimental implementation for the RFC postfix match (rust-lang/rfcs#3295, #121618). [Liaison is](423301844) ```@scottmcm``` with the lang team's [experimental feature gate process](https://github.com/rust-lang/lang-team/blob/master/src/how_to/experiment.md).
This feature has had an RFC for a while, and there has been discussion on it for a while. It would probably be valuable to see it out in the field rather than continue discussing it. This feature also allows to see how popular postfix expressions like this are for the postfix macros RFC, as those will take more time to implement.
It is entirely implemented in the parser, so it should be relatively easy to remove if needed.
This PR is split in to 5 commits to ease review.
1. The implementation of the feature & gating.
2. Add a MatchKind field, fix uses, fix pretty.
3. Basic rustfmt impl, as rustfmt crashes upon seeing this syntax without a fix.
4. Add new MatchSource to HIR for Clippy & other HIR consumers
Interpolated cleanups
Various cleanups I made while working on attempts to remove `Interpolated`, that are worth merging now. Best reviewed one commit at a time.
r? `@petrochenkov`
There are many cases where, due to codegen or a massively unruly codebase,
a deeply nested call(call(call(call(call(call(call(call(call(f())))))))))
can happen. This is a spot where it would be good to grow our stack, so that
we can survive to tell the programmer their code is dubiously written.
Existing names for values of this type are `sess`, `parse_sess`,
`parse_session`, and `ps`. `sess` is particularly annoying because
that's also used for `Session` values, which are often co-located, and
it can be difficult to know which type a value named `sess` refers to.
(That annoyance is the main motivation for this change.) `psess` is nice
and short, which is good for a name used this much.
The commit also renames some `parse_sess_created` values as
`psess_created`.
Detect more cases of `=` to `:` typo
When a `Local` is fully parsed, but not followed by a `;`, keep the `:` span arround and mention it. If the type could continue being parsed as an expression, suggest replacing the `:` with a `=`.
```
error: expected one of `!`, `+`, `->`, `::`, `;`, or `=`, found `.`
--> file.rs:2:32
|
2 | let _: std::env::temp_dir().join("foo");
| - ^ expected one of `!`, `+`, `->`, `::`, `;`, or `=`
| |
| while parsing the type for `_`
| help: use `=` if you meant to assign
```
Fix#119665.

Stashed errors used to be counted as errors, but could then be
cancelled, leading to `ErrorGuaranteed` soundness holes. #120828 changed
that, closing the soundness hole. But it introduced other difficulties
because you sometimes have to account for pending stashed errors when
making decisions about whether errors have occured/will occur and it's
easy to overlook these.
This commit aims for a middle ground.
- Stashed errors (not warnings) are counted immediately as emitted
errors, avoiding the possibility of forgetting to consider them.
- The ability to cancel (or downgrade) stashed errors is eliminated, by
disallowing the use of `steal_diagnostic` with errors, and introducing
the more restrictive methods `try_steal_{modify,replace}_and_emit_err`
that can be used instead.
Other things:
- `DiagnosticBuilder::stash` and `DiagCtxt::stash_diagnostic` now both
return `Option<ErrorGuaranteed>`, which enables the removal of two
`delayed_bug` calls and one `Ty::new_error_with_message` call. This is
possible because we store error guarantees in
`DiagCtxt::stashed_diagnostics`.
- Storing the guarantees also saves us having to maintain a counter.
- Calls to the `stashed_err_count` method are no longer necessary
alongside calls to `has_errors`, which is a nice simplification, and
eliminates two more `span_delayed_bug` calls and one FIXME comment.
- Tests are added for three of the four fixed PRs mentioned below.
- `issue-121108.rs`'s output improved slightly, omitting a non-useful
error message.

Add newtypes for bool fields/params/return types
Fixed all the cases of this found with some simple searches for `*/ bool` and `bool /*`; probably many more
There are lots of functions that modify a diagnostic. This can be via a
`&mut Diagnostic` or a `&mut DiagnosticBuilder`, because the latter type
wraps the former and impls `DerefMut`.
This commit converts all the `&mut Diagnostic` occurrences to `&mut
DiagnosticBuilder`. This is a step towards greatly simplifying
`Diagnostic`. Some of the relevant function are made generic, because
they deal with both errors and warnings. No function bodies are changed,
because all the modifier methods are available on both `Diagnostic` and
`DiagnosticBuilder`.
errors: only eagerly translate subdiagnostics
Subdiagnostics don't need to be lazily translated, they can always be eagerly translated. Eager translation is slightly more complex as we need to have a `DiagCtxt` available to perform the translation, which involves slightly more threading of that context.
This slight increase in complexity should enable later simplifications - like passing `DiagCtxt` into `AddToDiagnostic` and moving Fluent messages into the diagnostic structs rather than having them in separate files (working on that was what led to this change).

This mostly works well, and eliminates a couple of delayed bugs.
One annoying thing is that we should really also add an
`ErrorGuaranteed` to `proc_macro::bridge::LitKind::Err`. But that's
difficult because `proc_macro` doesn't have access to `ErrorGuaranteed`,
so we have to fake it.
Be more careful about interpreting a label/lifetime as a mistyped char literal.
Currently the parser interprets any label/lifetime in certain positions as a mistyped char literal, on the assumption that the trailing single quote was accidentally omitted. In such cases it gives an error with a suggestion to add the trailing single quote, and then puts the appropriate char literal into the AST. This behaviour was introduced in #101293.
This is reasonable for a case like this:
```
let c = 'a;
```
because `'a'` is a valid char literal. It's less reasonable for a case like this:
```
let c = 'abc;
```
because `'abc'` is not a valid char literal.
Prior to #120329 this could result in some sub-optimal suggestions in error messages, but nothing else. But #120329 changed `LitKind::from_token_lit` to assume that the char/byte/string literals it receives are valid, and to assert if not. This is reasonable because the lexer does not produce invalid char/byte/string literals in general. But in this "interpret label/lifetime as unclosed char literal" case the parser can produce an invalid char literal with contents such as `abc`, which triggers an assertion failure.
This PR changes the parser so it's more cautious about interpreting labels/lifetimes as unclosed char literals.
Fixes#120397.
r? `@compiler-errors`
Currently the parser will interpret any label/lifetime in certain
positions as a mistyped char literal, on the assumption that the
trailing single quote was accidentally omitted. This is reasonable for a
something like 'a (because 'a' would be valid) but not reasonable for a
something like 'abc (because 'abc' is not valid).
This commit restricts this behaviour only to labels/lifetimes that would
be valid char literals, via the new `could_be_unclosed_char_literal`
function. The commit also augments the `label-is-actually-char.rs` test
in a couple of ways:
- Adds testing of labels/lifetimes with identifiers longer than one
char, e.g. 'abc.
- Adds a new match with simpler patterns, because the
`recover_unclosed_char` call in `parse_pat_with_range_pat` was not
being exercised (in this test or any other ui tests).
Fixes#120397, an assertion failure, which was caused by this behaviour
in the parser interacting with some new stricter char literal checking
added in #120329.
Remove special handling of `box` expressions from parser
#108471 added a temporary hack to parse `box expr`. It's been almost a year since then, so I think it's safe to remove the special handling.
As a drive-by cleanup, move `parser/removed-syntax*` tests to their own directory.
In #119606 I added them and used a `_mv` suffix, but that wasn't great.
A `with_` prefix has three different existing uses.
- Constructors, e.g. `Vec::with_capacity`.
- Wrappers that provide an environment to execute some code, e.g.
`with_session_globals`.
- Consuming chaining methods, e.g. `Span::with_{lo,hi,ctxt}`.
The third case is exactly what we want, so this commit changes
`DiagnosticBuilder::foo_mv` to `DiagnosticBuilder::with_foo`.
Thanks to @compiler-errors for the suggestion.
Instead of taking `seq` as a mutable reference,
`maybe_recover_struct_lit_bad_delims` now consumes `seq` on the recovery
path, and returns `seq` unchanged on the non-recovery path. The commit
also combines an `if` and a `match` to merge two identical paths.
Also change `recover_seq_parse_error` so it receives a `PErr` instead of
a `PResult`, because all the call sites now handle the `Ok`/`Err`
distinction themselves.
