These appear along the cleanup path inside functions with
`#[unwind(aborts)]`. We don't const-check the cleanup path anyways,
since const-eval already has "abort-on-panic" semantics and there's
often drops that would otherwise be forbidden, so the check wasn't
really preventing anything anyways.
Add `-Zprecise-enum-drop-elaboration`
Its purpose is to assist in debugging #77382 and #74551. Passing `-Zprecise-enum-drop-elaboration=no` will turn off the added precision that seems to be causing issues on some platforms. This assumes that we can reproduce #77382 on the latest master. I should have done this earlier. Oh well.

Overhaul const-checking diagnostics
The primary purpose of this PR was to remove `NonConstOp::STOPS_CONST_CHECKING`, which causes any additional errors found by the const-checker to be silenced. I used this flag to preserve diagnostic parity with `qualify_min_const_fn.rs`, which has since been removed.
However, simply removing the flag caused a deluge of errors in some cases, since an error would be emitted any time a local or temporary had a wrong type. To remedy this, I added an alternative system (`DiagnosticImportance`) to silence additional error messages that were likely to distract the user from the underlying issue. When an error of the highest importance occurs, all less important errors are silenced. When no error of the highest importance occurs, all less important errors are emitted after checking is complete. Following the suggestions from the important error is usually enough to fix the less important errors, so this should lead to better UX most of the time.
There's also some unrelated diagnostics improvements in this PR isolated in their own commits. Splitting them out would be possible, but a bit of a pain. This isn't as tidy as some of my other PRs, but it should *only* affect diagnostics, never whether or not something passes const-checking. Note that there are a few trivial exceptions to this, like banning `Yield` in all const-contexts, not just `const fn`.
As always, meant to be reviewed commit-by-commit.

This helper function was meant to reduce code duplication between
const-checking pre- and post-drop-elaboration. Most of the functionality
is only relevant for the pre-drop-elaboration pass.

Remove `#[rustc_allow_const_fn_ptr]` and add `#![feature(const_fn_fn_ptr_basics)]`
`rustc_allow_const_fn_ptr` was a hack to work around the lack of an escape hatch for the "min `const fn`" checks in const-stable functions. Now that we have co-opted `allow_internal_unstable` for this purpose, we no longer need a bespoke attribute.
Now this functionality is gated under `const_fn_fn_ptr_basics` (how concise!), and `#[allow_internal_unstable(const_fn_fn_ptr_basics)]` replaces `#[rustc_allow_const_fn_ptr]`. `const_fn_fn_ptr_basics` allows function pointer types to appear in the arguments and locals of a `const fn` as well as function pointer casts to be performed inside a `const fn`. Both of these were allowed in constants and statics already. Notably, this does **not** allow users to invoke function pointers in a const context. Presumably, we will use a nicer name for that (`const_fn_ptr`?).

[mir-opt] Introduce a new flag to enable experimental/unsound mir opts
This implements part of https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/319. The exact name of this flag was not decided as part of that MCP and some people expressed that it should include "unsound" in some way.
I've chosen to use `enable-experimental-unsound-mir-opts` as the name. While long, I don't think that matters too much as really it will only be used by some mir-opt tests. If you object or have a better name, please leave a comment!

Replace `discriminant_switch_effect` with more general version
#68528 added a new edge-specific effect for `SwitchInt` terminators, `discriminant_switch_effect`, to the dataflow framework. While this accomplished the short-term goal of making drop elaboration more precise, it wasn't really useful in other contexts: It only supported `SwitchInt`s on the discriminant of an `enum` and did not allow effects to be applied along the "otherwise" branch. In const-propagation, for example, arbitrary edge-specific effects for the targets of a `SwitchInt` can be used to remember the value a `match` scrutinee must have in each arm.
This PR replaces `discriminant_switch_effect` with a more general `switch_int_edge_effects` method. The new method has a slightly different interface from the other edge-specific effect methods (e.g. `call_return_effect`). This divergence is explained in the new method's documentation, and reading the changes to the various dataflow impls as well as `direction.rs` should further clarify things. This PR should not change behavior.
This was a hack to work around the lack of an escape hatch for the "min
`const fn`" checks in const-stable functions. Now that we have co-opted
`allow_internal_unstable` for this purpose, we no longer need the
bespoke attribute.
Check for missing const-stability attributes in `rustc_passes`
Currently, this happens as a side effect of `is_min_const_fn`, which is non-obvious. Also adds a test for this case, since we didn't seem to have one before.
Move helper function for `missing_const_for_fn` out of rustc to clippy
cc @rust-lang/clippy @ecstatic-morse #76618
r? @Manishearth
I also removed all support for suggesting a function could be `const fn` when that would require feature gates to actually work.
This means we'll now have to maintain this ourselves in clippy, but that's how most lints work anyway, so...
Enable const propagation into operands at mir_opt_level=2
Feature was added in #74507 but gated with `mir_opt_level>=3` because of compile time regressions. Let's see whether the LLVM 11 update solves that.
As the [perf results](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/77107#issuecomment-697668154) show, enabling this optimization results in a lot less regression as before.
