diagnostics: shorten paths of unique symbols
This is a step towards implementing a fix for #50310, and continuation of the discussion in [Pre-RFC: Nicer Types In Diagnostics - compiler - Rust Internals](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/pre-rfc-nicer-types-in-diagnostics/11139). Impressed upon me from previous discussion in #21934 that an RFC for this is not needed, and I should just come up with code.
The recent improvements to `use` suggestions that I've contributed have given rise to this implementation. Contrary to previous suggestions, it's rather simple logic, and I believe it only reduces the amount of cognitive load that a developer would need when reading type errors.

If a symbol name can only be imported from one place, and as long as it was not glob-imported anywhere in the current crate, we can trim its printed path to the last component.
This has wide implications on error messages with types, for example, shortening `std::vec::Vec` to just `Vec`, as long as there is no other `Vec` importable from anywhere.
If a symbol name can only be imported from one place for a type, and
as long as it was not glob-imported anywhere in the current crate, we
can trim its printed path and print only the name.
This has wide implications on error messages with types, for example,
shortening `std::vec::Vec` to just `Vec`, as long as there is no other
`Vec` importable anywhere.
This adds a new '-Z trim-diagnostic-paths=false' option to control this
feature.
On the good path, with no diagnosis printed, we should try to avoid
issuing this query, so we need to prevent trimmed_def_paths query on
several cases.
This change also relies on a previous commit that differentiates
between `Debug` and `Display` on various rustc types, where the latter
is trimmed and presented to the user and the former is not.
The HIR Id trick is insufficient to prevent query cycles when optimizing
generators, since merely requesting a layout of a generator also
computes its `optimized_mir`.
Make no attempts to inline functions into generators within the same
crate to avoid query cycles.
Similar to `-Z dump-mir-graphviz`, this adds the option to write
HTML+CSS files that allow users to analyze the spans associated with MIR
elements (by individual statement, just terminator, or overall basic
block).
This PR was split out from PR #76004, and exposes an API for spanview
HTML+CSS files that is also used to analyze code regions chosen for
coverage instrumentation (in a follow-on PR).

Fix `-Z instrument-coverage` on MSVC
Found that `-C link-dead-code` (which was enabled automatically
under `-Z instrument-coverage`) was causing the linking error that
resulted in segmentation faults in coverage instrumented binaries. Link
dead code is now disabled under MSVC, allowing `-Z instrument-coverage`
to be enabled under MSVC for the first time.
More details are included in Issue #76038 .
Note this PR makes it possible to support `Z instrument-coverage` but
does not enable instrument coverage for MSVC in existing tests. It will be
enabled in another PR to follow this one (both PRs coming from original
PR #75828).

(This PR was broken out from PR #75828)
This commit removes the obsolete printer and replaces all uses of it
with `FmtPrinter`. Of the replaced uses, all but one use was in `debug!`
logging, two cases were notable:
- `MonoItem::to_string` is used in `-Z print-mono-items` and therefore
affects the output of all codegen-units tests.
- `DefPathBasedNames` was used in `librustc_codegen_llvm/type_of.rs`
with `LLVMStructCreateNamed` and that'll now get different values, but
this should result in no functional change.
