Perform unused assignment and unused variables lints on MIR.

[cjgillot]

Rebase of #101500

Fixes #51003.

The first commit moves detection of uninhabited types from the current liveness pass to MIR building.

In order to keep the same level of diagnostics, I had to instrument MIR a little more:

• keep for which original local a guard local is created;
• store in the VarBindingForm the list of introducer places and whether this was a shorthand pattern.

I am not very proud of the handling of self-assignments. The proposed scheme is in two parts: first detect probable self-assignments, by pattern matching on MIR, and second treat them specially during dataflow analysis. I welcome ideas.

Please review carefully the changes in tests. There are many small changes to behaviour, and I'm not sure all of them are desirable.

Overall result: ❌✅ regressions and improvements - please read the text below

Benchmarking this pull request means it may be perf-sensitive – we'll automatically label it not fit for rolling up. You can override this, but we strongly advise not to, due to possible changes in compiler perf.

Next Steps: If you can justify the regressions found in this try perf run, please do so in sufficient writing along with @rustbot label: +perf-regression-triaged. If not, please fix the regressions and do another perf run. If its results are neutral or positive, the label will be automatically removed.

[davidtwco]

Any idea how to bless cargo testsuite from rustc?

I'm not sure, haven't had to do this before. Maybe ask on Zulip?

[davidtwco]

In case it needs said, r=me if you've managed to get the Cargo test working.

[cjgillot]

I haven't found how to. But tool no-breakage week is finished, so let's try.
