Implement `#[rustc_must_implement_one_of]` attribute
This PR adds a new attribute — `#[rustc_must_implement_one_of]` that allows changing the "minimal complete definition" of a trait. It's similar to GHC's minimal `{-# MINIMAL #-}` pragma, though `#[rustc_must_implement_one_of]` is weaker atm.
Such attribute was long wanted. It can be, for example, used in `Read` trait to make transitions to recently added `read_buf` easier:
```rust
#[rustc_must_implement_one_of(read, read_buf)]
pub trait Read {
fn read(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize> {
let mut buf = ReadBuf::new(buf);
self.read_buf(&mut buf)?;
Ok(buf.filled_len())
}
fn read_buf(&mut self, buf: &mut ReadBuf<'_>) -> Result<()> {
default_read_buf(|b| self.read(b), buf)
}
}
impl Read for Ty0 {}
//^ This will fail to compile even though all `Read` methods have default implementations
// Both of these will compile just fine
impl Read for Ty1 {
fn read(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize> { /* ... */ }
}
impl Read for Ty2 {
fn read_buf(&mut self, buf: &mut ReadBuf<'_>) -> Result<()> { /* ... */ }
}
```
For now, this is implemented as an internal attribute to start experimenting on the design of this feature. In the future we may want to extend it:
- Allow arbitrary requirements like `a | (b & c)`
- Allow multiple requirements like
- ```rust
#[rustc_must_implement_one_of(a, b)]
#[rustc_must_implement_one_of(c, d)]
```
- Make it appear in rustdoc documentation
- Change the syntax?
- Etc
Eventually, we should make an RFC and make this (or rather similar) attribute public.

I'm fairly new to compiler development and not at all sure if the implementation makes sense, but at least it passes tests :)
