Stabilise inline_const
# Stabilisation Report
## Summary
This PR will stabilise `inline_const` feature in expression position. `inline_const_pat` is still unstable and will *not* be stabilised.
The feature will allow code like this:
```rust
foo(const { 1 + 1 })
```
which is roughly desugared into
```rust
struct Foo;
impl Foo {
const FOO: i32 = 1 + 1;
}
foo(Foo::FOO)
```
This feature is from https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2920 and is tracked in #76001 (the tracking issue should *not* be closed as it needs to track inline const in pattern position). The initial implementation is done in #77124.
## Difference from RFC
There are two major differences (enhancements) as implemented from the RFC. First thing is that the RFC says that the type of an inline const block inferred from the content *within* it, but we currently can infer the type using the information from outside the const block as well. This is a frequently requested feature to the initial implementation (e.g. #89964). The inference is implemented in #89561 and is done by treating inline const similar to a closure and therefore share inference context with its parent body.
This allows code like:
```rust
let v: Vec<i32> = const { Vec::new() };
```
Another enhancement that differs from the RFC is that we currently allow inline consts to reference generic parameters. This is implemented in #96557.
This allows code like:
```rust
fn create_none_array<T, const N: usize>() -> [Option<T>; N] {
[const { None::<T> }; N]
}
```
This enhancement also makes inline const usable as static asserts:
```rust
fn require_zst<T>() {
const { assert!(std::mem::size_of::<T>() == 0) }
}
```

## Unresolved issues
We still have a few issues that are not resolved, but I don't think it necessarily has to block stabilisation:
* expr fragment specifier issue: #86730
* ~~`const {}` behaves similar to `async {}` but not to `{}` and `unsafe {}` (they are treated as `ExpressionWithoutBlock` rather than `ExpressionWithBlock`): https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/213817-t-lang/topic/const.20blocks.20differ.20from.20normal.20and.20from.20unsafe.20blocks/near/290229453~~
## Tests
There are a few tests in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/tree/master/src/test/ui/inline-const
Add diagnostic item for `std::iter::Enumerate`
This adds a diagnostic item for `std::iter::Enumerate`. The change will be used by the clippy `unused_enumerate_index` lint to move away from type paths to using diagnostic items.
see: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/5393
windows fill_utf16_buf: explain the expected return value
The comment just says "return what the syscall returns", but that doesn't work for all syscalls as the Windows API is not consistent in how buffer size is negotiated. For instance, GetUserProfileDirectoryW works a bit differently, and so home_dir_crt has to translate this to the usual protocol itself. So it's worth describing that protocol.

Bump Fuchsia versions
This updates the Fuchsia commit used in `auto - x86_64-gnu-integration` CI bot to use the Rust commit 703dc9ce64. This should help improve the coverage of this builder.
It also updates the SDK version to F20.20240412.3.1, and the Fuchsia Clang version to c777c011a709dffd4fa5e79cad7947b7c3405d02.

More DefineOpaqueTypes::Yes
This accepts more code on stable. It is now possible to have match arms return a function item `foo::<ConcreteType>` and a function item `foo::<OpaqueTypeInDefiningScope>` in another, and that will constrain `OpaqueTypeInDefiningScope` to have the hidden type `ConcreteType`. So the following function will now compile, but on master it errors with a type mismatch on the second match arm
```rust
// The function item whose generic params we want to merge.
fn foo<T>(t: T) -> T { t }
// Helper ensuring we can constrain `T` on `F` without explicitly specifying it
fn bind<T, F: FnOnce(T) -> T>(_: T, f: F) -> F { f }
fn k() -> impl Sized {
let x = match true {
true => {
// `f` is `FnDef(foo, [infer_var])`
let f = foo;
// Get a value of an opaque type on stable
let t = k();
// this returns `FnDef(foo, [k::return])`
bind(t, f)
}
false => foo::<()>,
};
todo!()
}
```

Test `#[unix_sigpipe = "inherit"]` with both `SIG_DFL` and `SIG_IGN`
Extend our `#[unix_sigpipe = "inherit"]` test so that it detects if `SIGPIPE` wrongly ends up being `SIG_DFL` when the parent has `SIG_IGN`. We have no current test for this particular case.

delegation: Support renaming, and async, const, extern "ABI" and C-variadic functions
Also allow delegating to functions with opaque types (`impl Trait`).
The delegation item will refer to the original opaque type from the callee, fresh opaque type won't be created, which seems like a reasonable behavior.
(Such delegation items will cause query cycles when used in trait impls, but it can be fixed later.)

Require explicitly marking closures as coroutines
instead of relying on patching up the closure to be a coroutine if it happens to contain a `yield` expression.
I only do this in the 2024 edition, as the `gen` keyword is only available there.
CI: dynamic jobs
This PR modifies our CI workflows to be dynamic. This means that when a GitHub event is generated, we will run a Python script (`calculate-job-matrix.py`), which decides which CI jobs should be generated. These jobs are defined in `src/ci/github-actions/jobs.yml`).
This should provide a few benefits:
- Once the migration to dynamic jobs is complete, we shouldn't need `expand-yaml-anchors` anymore.
- The job table on PRs (and also the left job column on auto/try builds) should be much cleaner and contain only the jobs that are actually relevant/executed.
- It should be much easier to support dynamic try builds, i.e. to run an arbitrary CI job on a try build.
See [this Zulip discussion](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/242791-t-infra/topic/job.20matrix.20re-ordered.20PR.20list) for more context.

Stop using LLVM struct types for alloca
The alloca type has no semantic meaning, only the size (and alignment, but we specify it explicitly) matter. Using `[N x i8]` is a more direct way to specify that we want `N` bytes, and avoids relying on LLVM's struct layout. It is likely that a future LLVM version will change to an untyped alloca representation.
Split out from #121577.

restrict promotion of `const fn` calls
We only promote them in `const`/`static` initializers, but even that is still unfortunate -- we still cannot add promoteds to required_consts. But we should add them there to make sure it's always okay to evaluate every const we encounter in a MIR body. That effort of not promoting things that can fail to evaluate is tracked in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/80619. These `const fn` calls are the last missing piece.
So I propose that we do not promote const-fn calls in const when that may fail without the entire const failing, thereby completing https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/80619. Unfortunately we can't just reject promoting these functions outright due to backwards compatibility. So let's see if we can find a hack that makes crater happy...
For the record, this is the [crater analysis](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/80243#issuecomment-751885520) from when I tried to entirely forbid this kind of promotion. It's a tiny amount of breakage and if we had a nice alternative for code like that, we could conceivably push it through... but sadly, inline const expressions are still blocked on t-lang concerns about post-monomorphization errors and we haven't yet figured out an implementation that can resolve those concerns. So we're forced to make progress via other means, such as terrible hacks like this.
Attempt one: only promote calls on the "safe path" at the beginning of a MIR block. This is the path that starts at the start block and continues via gotos and calls, but stops at the first branch. If we had imposed this restriction before stabilizing `if` and `match` in `const`, this would have definitely been sufficient...
EDIT: Turns out that works. :)

Enable `CrateNum` query feeding via `TyCtxt`
Instead of having a magic function that violates some `TyCtxtFeed` invariants, add a `create_def` equivalent for `CrateNum`s.
Note that this still isn't tracked by the query system (unlike `create_def`), and that feeding most `CrateNum` queries for crates other than the local one will likely cause performance regressions.
These things should be attempted on their own separately, but this PR should stand on its own
Also allow `impl Trait` in delegated functions.
The delegation item will refer to the original opaque type from the callee, fresh opaque type won't be created.

Don't fatal when calling `expect_one_of` when recovering arg in `parse_seq`
In `parse_seq`, when parsing a sequence of token-separated items, if we don't see a separator, we try to parse another item eagerly in order to give a good diagnostic and recover from a missing separator:
d1a0fa5ed3/compiler/rustc_parse/src/parser/mod.rs (L900-L901)
If parsing the item itself calls `expect_one_of`, then we will fatal because of #58903:
d1a0fa5ed3/compiler/rustc_parse/src/parser/mod.rs (L513-L516)
For `precise_capturing` feature I implemented, we do end up calling `expected_one_of`:
d1a0fa5ed3/compiler/rustc_parse/src/parser/ty.rs (L712-L714)
This leads the compiler to fatal *before* having emitted the first error, leading to absolutely no useful information for the user about what happened in the parser.
This PR makes it so that we stop doing that.

Do `check_coroutine_obligations` once per typeck root
We only need to do `check_coroutine_obligations` once per typeck root, especially since the new solver can't really (easily) associate which obligations correspond to which coroutines.
This requires us to move the checks for sized coroutine fields into `mir_coroutine_witnesses`, but that's fine imo.

alloc::Layout: explicitly document size invariant on the type level
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/95295 added this to the constructor, but it seems worth documenting the type invariant at the type level.
deref patterns: lower deref patterns to MIR
This lowers deref patterns to MIR. This is a bit tricky because this is the first kind of pattern that requires storing a value in a temporary. Thanks to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/123324 false edges are no longer a problem.
The thing I'm not confident about is the handling of fake borrows. This PR ignores any fake borrows inside a deref pattern. We are guaranteed to at least fake borrow the place of the first pointer value, which could be enough, but I'm not certain.
Suggest using type args directly instead of equality constraint
When type arguments are written erroneously using an equality constraint we suggest specifying them directly without the equality constraint.
Fixes#122162

Use fulfillment in method probe, not evaluation
This PR reworks method probing to use fulfillment instead of a `for`-loop of `evaluate_predicate` calls, and moves normalization from method candidate assembly into the `consider_probe`, where it's applied to *all* candidates. This last part coincidentally fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/121643#issuecomment-1975371248.
Regarding *why* this large rewrite is done: In general, it's an anti-pattern to do `for o in obligations { evaluate(o); }` because it's not compatible with the way that the new solver emits alias-relate obligations which constrain variables that may show up in other predicates.
