See #6681's description for more details.

Latest commit reverts a potential regression.

Note that I messed up the subtree push by doing a rebase which should have been done via a merge commit/edit the original merge commit. Will figure it out later.

In the AST, currently we use `BinOpKind` within `ExprKind::AssignOp` and
`AssocOp::AssignOp`, even though this allows some nonsensical
combinations. E.g. there is no `&&=` operator. Likewise for HIR and
THIR.

This commit introduces `AssignOpKind` which only includes the ten
assignable operators, and uses it in `ExprKind::AssignOp` and
`AssocOp::AssignOp`. (And does similar things for `hir::ExprKind` and
`thir::ExprKind`.) This avoids the possibility of nonsensical
combinations, as seen by the removal of the `bug!` case in
`lang_item_for_binop`.

The commit is mostly plumbing, including:
- Adds an `impl From<AssignOpKind> for BinOpKind` (AST) and `impl
  From<AssignOp> for BinOp` (MIR/THIR).
- `BinOpCategory` can now be created from both `BinOpKind` and
  `AssignOpKind`.
- Replaces the `IsAssign` type with `Op`, which has more information and
  a few methods.
- `suggest_swapping_lhs_and_rhs`: moves the condition to the call site,
  it's easier that way.
- `check_expr_inner`: had to factor out some code into a separate
  method.

I'm on the fence about whether avoiding the nonsensical combinations is
worth the extra code.
"Missing" patterns are possible in bare fn types (`fn f(u32)`) and
similar places. Currently these are represented in the AST with
`ast::PatKind::Ident` with no `by_ref`, no `mut`, an empty ident, and no
sub-pattern. This flows through to `{hir,thir}::PatKind::Binding` for
HIR and THIR.

This is a bit nasty. It's very non-obvious, and easy to forget to check
for the exceptional empty identifier case.

This commit adds a new variant, `PatKind::Missing`, to do it properly.

The process I followed:
- Add a `Missing` variant to `{ast,hir,thir}::PatKind`.
- Chang `parse_param_general` to produce `ast::PatKind::Missing`
  instead of `ast::PatKind::Missing`.
- Look through `kw::Empty` occurrences to find functions where an
  existing empty ident check needs replacing with a `PatKind::Missing`
  check: `print_param`, `check_trait_item`, `is_named_param`.
- Add a `PatKind::Missing => unreachable!(),` arm to every exhaustive
  match identified by the compiler.
- Find which arms are actually reachable by running the test suite,
  changing them to something appropriate, usually by looking at what
  would happen to a `PatKind::Ident`/`PatKind::Binding` with no ref, no
  `mut`, an empty ident, and no subpattern.

Quite a few of the `unreachable!()` arms were never reached. This makes
sense because `PatKind::Missing` can't happen in every pattern, only
in places like bare fn tys and trait fn decls.

I also tried an alternative approach: modifying `ast::Param::pat` to
hold an `Option<P<Pat>>` instead of a `P<Pat>`, but that quickly turned
into a very large and painful change. Adding `PatKind::Missing` is much
easier.
By replacing them with `{Open,Close}{Param,Brace,Bracket,Invisible}`.

PR #137902 made `ast::TokenKind` more like `lexer::TokenKind` by
replacing the compound `BinOp{,Eq}(BinOpToken)` variants with fieldless
variants `Plus`, `Minus`, `Star`, etc. This commit does a similar thing
with delimiters. It also makes `ast::TokenKind` more similar to
`parser::TokenType`.

This requires a few new methods:
- `TokenKind::is_{,open_,close_}delim()` replace various kinds of
  pattern matches.
- `Delimiter::as_{open,close}_token_kind` are used to convert
  `Delimiter` values to `TokenKind`.

Despite these additions, it's a net reduction in lines of code. This is
because e.g. `token::OpenParen` is so much shorter than
`token::OpenDelim(Delimiter::Parenthesis)` that many multi-line forms
reduce to single line forms. And many places where the number of lines
doesn't change are still easier to read, just because the names are
shorter, e.g.:
```
-   } else if self.token != token::CloseDelim(Delimiter::Brace) {
+   } else if self.token != token::CloseBrace {
```
So they match the order of the parts in the source code, e.g.:
```
struct Foo<T, U> { t: T, u: U }
       <-><----> <------------>
       /   |       \
   ident generics  variant_data
```
Keep the `P` constructor function for now, to minimize immediate churn.

All the `into_inner` calls are removed, which is nice.
"{{root}}" is an internal-only name, and cannot appear in Rust code
being formatted.
`panic!` does not print any identifying information for threads that are
unnamed. However, in many cases, the thread ID can be determined.

This changes the panic message from something like this:

    thread '<unnamed>' panicked at src/main.rs:3:5:
    explicit panic

To something like this:

    thread '<unnamed>' (0xff9bf) panicked at src/main.rs:3:5:
    explicit panic

Stack overflow messages are updated as well.

This change applies to both named and unnamed threads. The ID printed is
the OS integer thread ID rather than the Rust thread ID, which should
also be what debuggers print.
`ModKind::Loaded` has an `inline` field and a `had_parse_error` field.
If the `inline` field is `Inline::Yes` then `had_parse_error` must be
`Ok(())`.

This commit moves the `had_parse_error` field into the `Inline::No`
variant. This makes it impossible to create the nonsensical combination
of `inline == Inline::Yes` and `had_parse_error = Err(_)`.
By updating rustfmt to use `dirs-6.0.0`.
This is to prove that the frontmatter is preserved.

The choices in tests is intended for showing the different parts of the
proposed Style Guide for frontmatters.
Normally, changes to rustfmt go into the separate repo. But, in
this case, the bug is introduced in a local change and therefore
isn't present in the rustfmt repo.
I.e. do not mark them as used, or non-speculative loaded, or similar.
Previously they were sometimes finalized during early resolution, causing issues like rust-lang/rust#144793 (comment).
