Avoid specialization in the metadata serialization code
With the exception of a perf-only specialization for byte slices and byte vectors.
This uses the same trick of introducing a new trait and having the Encodable and Decodable derives add a bound to it as used for TyEncoder/TyDecoder. The new code is clearer about which encoder/decoder uses which impl and it reduces the dependency of rustc on specialization, making it easier to remove support for specialization entirely or turn it into a construct that is only allowed for perf optimizations if we decide to do this.
Replace a number of FxHashMaps/Sets with stable-iteration-order alternatives
This PR replaces almost all of the remaining `FxHashMap`s in query results with either `FxIndexMap` or `UnordMap`. The only case that is missing is the `EffectiveVisibilities` struct which turned out to not be straightforward to transform. Once that is done too, we can remove the `HashStable` implementation from `HashMap`.
The first commit adds the `StableCompare` trait which is a companion trait to `StableOrd`. Some types like `Symbol` can be compared in a cross-session stable way, but their `Ord` implementation is not stable. In such cases, a `StableCompare` implementation can be provided to offer a lightweight way for stable sorting. The more heavyweight option is to sort via `ToStableHashKey`, but then sorting needs to have access to a stable hashing context and `ToStableHashKey` can also be expensive as in the case of `Symbol` where it has to allocate a `String`.
The rest of the commits are rather mechanical and don't overlap, so they are best reviewed individually.

custom mir: make it clear what the return block is
Custom MIR recently got support for specifying the "unwind action", so now there's two things coming after the actual call part of `Call` terminators. That's not very self-explaining so I propose we change the syntax to imitate keyword arguments:
```
Call(popped = Vec::pop(v), ReturnTo(drop), UnwindContinue())
```
Also fix some outdated docs and add some docs to `Call` and `Drop`.

Add lint against ambiguous wide pointer comparisons
This PR is the resolution of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/106447 decided in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/117717 by T-lang.
## `ambiguous_wide_pointer_comparisons`
*warn-by-default*
The `ambiguous_wide_pointer_comparisons` lint checks comparison of `*const/*mut ?Sized` as the operands.
### Example
```rust
let ab = (A, B);
let a = &ab.0 as *const dyn T;
let b = &ab.1 as *const dyn T;
let _ = a == b;
```
### Explanation
The comparison includes metadata which may not be expected.
-------
This PR also drops `clippy::vtable_address_comparisons` which is superseded by this one.
~~One thing: is the current naming right? `invalid` seems a bit too much.~~
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/117717
rustc_arena: add `alloc_str`
Two places called `from_utf8_unchecked` for strings from `alloc_slice`,
and one's SAFETY comment said this was for lack of `alloc_str` -- so
let's just add that instead!

Cleanup blocks are declared with `bb (cleanup) = { ... }`.
`Call` and `Drop` terminators take an additional argument describing the
unwind action, which is one of the following:
* `UnwindContinue()`
* `UnwindUnreachable()`
* `UnwindTerminate(reason)`, where reason is `ReasonAbi` or `ReasonInCleanup`
* `UnwindCleanup(block)`
Also support unwind resume and unwind terminate terminators:
* `UnwindResume()`
* `UnwindTerminate(reason)`
Give a better diagnostic for missing parens in Fn* bounds
Fixes#108109
It would be nice to try and recover here, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort, especially as the bounds on the recovered function would be incorrect.
Pretty print `Fn` traits in `rustc_on_unimplemented`
I don't think that users really ever should need to think about `Fn*` traits' tupled args for a simple trait error.

Implement `gen` blocks in the 2024 edition
Coroutines tracking issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/43122
`gen` block tracking issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/117078
This PR implements `gen` blocks that implement `Iterator`. Most of the logic with `async` blocks is shared, and thus I renamed various types that were referring to `async` specifically.
An example usage of `gen` blocks is
```rust
fn foo() -> impl Iterator<Item = i32> {
gen {
yield 42;
for i in 5..18 {
if i.is_even() { continue }
yield i * 2;
}
}
}
```
The limitations (to be resolved) of the implementation are listed in the tracking issue
