Replace const eval limit by a lint and add an exponential backoff warning
The lint triggers at the first power of 2 that comes after 1 million function calls or traversed back-edges (takes less than a second on usual programs). After the first emission, an unsilenceable warning is repeated at every following power of 2 terminators, causing it to get reported less and less the longer the evaluation runs.

This PR adds support for detecting if overflow checks are enabled in similar fashion as debug_assertions are detected.
Possible use-case of this, for example, if we want to use checked integer casts in builds with overflow checks, e.g.
```rust
pub fn cast(val: usize)->u16 {
if cfg!(overflow_checks) {
val.try_into().unwrap()
}
else{
vas as _
}
}
```
Resolves#91130.

Implement builtin # syntax and use it for offset_of!(...)
Add `builtin #` syntax to the parser, as well as a generic infrastructure to support both item and expression position builtin syntaxes. The PR also uses this infrastructure for the implementation of the `offset_of!` macro, added by #106934.

Stabilize raw-dylib, link_ordinal, import_name_type and -Cdlltool
This stabilizes the `raw-dylib` feature (#58713) for all architectures (i.e., `x86` as it is already stable for all other architectures).
Changes:
* Permit the use of the `raw-dylib` link kind for x86, the `link_ordinal` attribute and the `import_name_type` key for the `link` attribute.
* Mark the `raw_dylib` feature as stable.
* Stabilized the `-Zdlltool` argument as `-Cdlltool`.
* Note the path to `dlltool` if invoking it failed (we don't need to do this if `dlltool` returns an error since it prints its path in the error message).
* Adds tests for `-Cdlltool`.
* Adds tests for being unable to find the dlltool executable, and dlltool failing.
* Fixes a bug where we were checking the exit code of dlltool to see if it failed, but dlltool always returns 0 (indicating success), so instead we need to check if anything was written to `stderr`.
NOTE: As previously noted (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104218#issuecomment-1315895618) using dlltool within rustc is temporary, but this is not the first time that Rust has added a temporary tool use and argument: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104218#issuecomment-1318720482

Add cross-language LLVM CFI support to the Rust compiler
This PR adds cross-language LLVM Control Flow Integrity (CFI) support to the Rust compiler by adding the `-Zsanitizer-cfi-normalize-integers` option to be used with Clang `-fsanitize-cfi-icall-normalize-integers` for normalizing integer types (see https://reviews.llvm.org/D139395).
It provides forward-edge control flow protection for C or C++ and Rust -compiled code "mixed binaries" (i.e., for when C or C++ and Rust -compiled code share the same virtual address space). For more information about LLVM CFI and cross-language LLVM CFI support for the Rust compiler, see design document in the tracking issue #89653.
Cross-language LLVM CFI can be enabled with -Zsanitizer=cfi and -Zsanitizer-cfi-normalize-integers, and requires proper (i.e., non-rustc) LTO (i.e., -Clinker-plugin-lto).
Thank you again, ``@bjorn3,`` ``@nikic,`` ``@samitolvanen,`` and the Rust community for all the help!

Mark`feature(return_position_impl_trait_in_trait)` and`feature(async_fn_in_trait)` as not incomplete
I think they've graduated, since as far as I'm aware, they don't cause compiler crashes or unsoundness anymore.
Stabilize debugger_visualizer
This stabilizes the `debugger_visualizer` attribute (#95939).
* Marks the `debugger_visualizer` feature as `accepted`.
* Marks the `debugger_visualizer` attribute as `ungated`.
* Deletes feature gate test, removes feature gate from other tests.

Split out a separate feature gate for impl trait in associated types
in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/107645 it was decided that we'll take a new route for type alias impl trait. The exact route isn't clear yet, so while I'm working on implementing some of these proposed changes (e.g. in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/110010) to be able to experiment with them, I will also work on stabilizing another sugar version first: impl trait in associated types. Similarly I'll look into creating feature gates for impl trait in const/static types.
This PR does nothing but split the feature gate, so that you need to enable a different feature gate for
```rust
impl Trait for Type {
type Assoc = impl SomeTrait;
}
```
than what you need for `type Foo = impl SomeTrait;`
Add ability to transmute (somewhat) with generic consts in arrays
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.
This is done by normalizing the forms of expressions into sorted order of multiplied terms, which is not generic over all expressions, but should handle most cases.
This allows for some _basic_ transmutations between types that are equivalent in size without requiring additional stack space at runtime.
I only see one other location at which `SizeSkeleton` is being used, and it checks for equality so this shouldn't affect anywhere else that I can tell.
See [this Stackoverflow post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73085012/transmute-nested-const-generic-array-rust) for what was previously necessary to convert between types. This PR makes converting nested `T -> [T; 1]` transmutes possible, and `[uB*2; N] -> [uB; N * 2]` possible as well.
I'm not sure whether this is something that would be wanted, and if it is it definitely should not be insta-stable, so I'd add a feature gate.
Stabilize `#![feature(target_feature_11)]`
## Stabilization report
### Summary
Allows for safe functions to be marked with `#[target_feature]` attributes.
Functions marked with `#[target_feature]` are generally considered as unsafe functions: they are unsafe to call, cannot be assigned to safe function pointers, and don't implement the `Fn*` traits.
However, calling them from other `#[target_feature]` functions with a superset of features is safe.
```rust
// Demonstration function
#[target_feature(enable = "avx2")]
fn avx2() {}
fn foo() {
// Calling `avx2` here is unsafe, as we must ensure
// that AVX is available first.
unsafe {
avx2();
}
}
#[target_feature(enable = "avx2")]
fn bar() {
// Calling `avx2` here is safe.
avx2();
}
```
### Test cases
Tests for this feature can be found in [`src/test/ui/rfcs/rfc-2396-target_feature-11/`](b67ba9ba20/src/test/ui/rfcs/rfc-2396-target_feature-11/).
### Edge cases
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/73631
Closures defined inside functions marked with `#[target_feature]` inherit the target features of their parent function. They can still be assigned to safe function pointers and implement the appropriate `Fn*` traits.
```rust
#[target_feature(enable = "avx2")]
fn qux() {
let my_closure = || avx2(); // this call to `avx2` is safe
let f: fn() = my_closure;
}
```
This means that in order to call a function with `#[target_feature]`, you must show that the target-feature is available while the function executes *and* for as long as whatever may escape from that function lives.
