improve normalization of `Pointee::Metadata`
This PR makes it so that `<Wrapper<Tail> as Pointee>::Metadata` is normalized to `<Tail as Pointee>::Metadata` if we don't know `Wrapper<Tail>: Sized`. With that, the trait solver can prove projection predicates like `<Wrapper<Tail> as Pointee>::Metadata == <Tail as Pointee>::Metadata`, which makes it possible to use the metadata APIs to cast between the tail and the wrapper:
```rust
#![feature(ptr_metadata)]
use std::ptr::{self, Pointee};
fn cast_same_meta<T: ?Sized, U: ?Sized>(ptr: *const T) -> *const U
where
T: Pointee<Metadata = <U as Pointee>::Metadata>,
{
let (thin, meta) = ptr.to_raw_parts();
ptr::from_raw_parts(thin, meta)
}
struct Wrapper<T: ?Sized>(T);
fn cast_to_wrapper<T: ?Sized>(ptr: *const T) -> *const Wrapper<T> {
cast_same_meta(ptr)
}
```
Previously, this failed to compile:
```
error[E0271]: type mismatch resolving `<Wrapper<T> as Pointee>::Metadata == <T as Pointee>::Metadata`
--> src/lib.rs:16:5
|
15 | fn cast_to_wrapper<T: ?Sized>(ptr: *const T) -> *const Wrapper<T> {
| - found this type parameter
16 | cast_same_meta(ptr)
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected `Wrapper<T>`, found type parameter `T`
|
= note: expected associated type `<Wrapper<T> as Pointee>::Metadata`
found associated type `<T as Pointee>::Metadata`
= note: an associated type was expected, but a different one was found
```
(Yes, you can already do this with `as` casts. But using functions is so much ✨ *safer* ✨, because you can't change the metadata on accident.)

This PR essentially changes the built-in impls of `Pointee` from this:
```rust
// before
impl Pointee for u8 {
type Metadata = ();
}
impl Pointee for [u8] {
type Metadata = usize;
}
// ...
impl Pointee for Wrapper<u8> {
type Metadata = ();
}
impl Pointee for Wrapper<[u8]> {
type Metadata = usize;
}
// ...
// This impl is only selected if `T` is a type parameter or unnormalizable projection or opaque type.
fallback impl<T: ?Sized> Pointee for Wrapper<T>
where
Wrapper<T>: Sized
{
type Metadata = ();
}
// This impl is only selected if `T` is a type parameter or unnormalizable projection or opaque type.
fallback impl<T /*: Sized */> Pointee for T {
type Metadata = ();
}
```
to this:
```rust
// after
impl Pointee for u8 {
type Metadata = ();
}
impl Pointee for [u8] {
type Metadata = usize;
}
// ...
impl<T: ?Sized> Pointee for Wrapper<T> {
// in the old solver this will instead project to the "deep" tail directly,
// e.g. `Wrapper<Wrapper<T>>::Metadata = T::Metadata`
type Metadata = <T as Pointee>::Metadata;
}
// ...
// This impl is only selected if `T` is a type parameter or unnormalizable projection or opaque type.
fallback impl<T /*: Sized */> Pointee for T {
type Metadata = ();
}
```
Invert diagnostic lints.
That is, change `diagnostic_outside_of_impl` and `untranslatable_diagnostic` from `allow` to `deny`, because more than half of the compiler has been converted to use translated diagnostics.
This commit removes more `deny` attributes than it adds `allow` attributes, which proves that this change is warranted.

Remove unused args from functions
`#[instrument]` suppresses the unused arguments from a function, *and* suppresses unused methods too! This PR removes things which are only used via `#[instrument]` calls, and fixes some other errors (privacy?) that I will comment inline.
It's possible that some of these arguments were being passed in for the purposes of being instrumented, but I am unconvinced by most of them.
Introduce `enter_forall` to supercede `instantiate_binder_with_placeholders`
r? `@lcnr`
Long term we'd like to experiment with decrementing the universe count after "exiting" binders so that we do not end up creating infer vars in non-root universes even when they logically reside in the root universe. The fact that we dont do this currently results in a number of issues in the new trait solver where we consider goals to be ambiguous because otherwise it would require lowering the universe of an infer var. i.e. the goal `?x.0 eq <T as Trait<?y.1>>::Assoc` where the alias is rigid would not be able to instantiate `?x` with the alias as there would be a universe error.
This PR is the first-ish sort of step towards being able to implement this as eventually we would want to decrement the universe in `enter_forall`. Unfortunately its Difficult to actually implement decrementing universes nicely so this is a separate step which moves us closer to the long term goal ✨
Stop bailing out from compilation just because there were incoherent traits

but also has a lot of "type annotations needed" fallout. Some are fixed in the second commit.
Normalize type outlives obligations in NLL for new solver
Normalize the type outlives assumptions and obligations in MIR borrowck. This should fix any of the lazy-norm-related MIR borrowck problems.
Also some cleanups from last PR:
1. Normalize obligations in a loop in lexical region resolution
2. Use `deeply_normalize_with_skipped_universes` in lexical resolution since we may have, e.g. `for<'a> Alias<'a>: 'b`.

- `emitted_at` isn't used outside the crate.
- `code` and `messages` are public fields, so there's no point have
trivial getters/setters for them.
- `suggestions` is public, so the comment about "functionality on
`Diagnostic`" isn't needed.
