Make it so that every structured error annotated with `#[derive(Diagnostic)]` that has a field of type `Ty<'_>`, the printing of that value into a `String` will look at the thread-local storage `TyCtxt` in order to shorten to a length appropriate with the terminal width. When this happen, the resulting error will have a note with the file where the full type name was written to.
```
error[E0618]: expected function, found `((..., ..., ..., ...), ..., ..., ...)``
--> long.rs:7:5
|
6 | fn foo(x: D) { //~ `x` has type `(...
| - `x` has type `((..., ..., ..., ...), ..., ..., ...)`
7 | x(); //~ ERROR expected function, found `(...
| ^--

| call expression requires function

= note: the full name for the type has been written to 'long.long-type-14182675702747116984.txt'
= note: consider using `--verbose` to print the full type name to the console

`rustc_span::symbol` defines some things that are re-exported from
`rustc_span`, such as `Symbol` and `sym`. But it doesn't re-export some
closely related things such as `Ident` and `kw`. So you can do `use
rustc_span::{Symbol, sym}` but you have to do `use
rustc_span::symbol::{Ident, kw}`, which is inconsistent for no good
reason.
This commit re-exports `Ident`, `kw`, and `MacroRulesNormalizedIdent`,
and changes many `rustc_span::symbol::` qualifiers in `compiler/` to
`rustc_span::`. This is a 200+ net line of code reduction, mostly
because many files with two `use rustc_span` items can be reduced to
one.
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`.
Because it's almost always static.
This makes `impl IntoDiagnosticArg for DiagnosticArgValue` trivial,
which is nice.
There are a few diagnostics constructed in
`compiler/rustc_mir_build/src/check_unsafety.rs` and
`compiler/rustc_mir_transform/src/errors.rs` that now need symbols
converted to `String` with `to_string` instead of `&str` with `as_str`,
but that' no big deal, and worth it for the simplifications elsewhere.
