Type inference for inline consts
Fixes#78132Fixes#78174Fixes#81857Fixes#89964
Perform type checking/inference of inline consts in the same context as the outer def, similar to what is currently done to closure.
Doing so would require `closure_base_def_id` of the inline const to return the outer def, and since `closure_base_def_id` can be called on non-local crate (and thus have no HIR available), a new `DefKind` is created for inline consts.
The type of the generated anon const can capture lifetime of outer def, so we couldn't just use the typeck result as the type of the inline const's def. Closure has a similar issue, and it uses extra type params `CK, CS, U` to capture closure kind, input/output signature and upvars. I use a similar approach for inline consts, letting it have an extra type param `R`, and then `typeof(InlineConst<[paremt generics], R>)` would just be `R`. In borrowck region requirements are also propagated to the outer MIR body just like it's currently done for closure.
With this PR, inline consts in expression position are quitely usable now; however the usage in pattern position is still incomplete -- since those does not remain in the MIR borrowck couldn't verify the lifetime there. I have left an ignored test as a FIXME.
Some disucssions can be found on [this Zulip thread](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/260443-project-const-generics/topic/inline.20consts.20typeck).

Use `is_global` in `candidate_should_be_dropped_in_favor_of`
This manifistated in #90195 with compiler being unable to keep
one candidate for a trait impl, if where is a global impl and more
than one trait bound in the where clause.
Before #87280 `candidate_should_be_dropped_in_favor_of` was using
`TypeFoldable::is_global()` that was enough to discard the two
`ParamCandidate`s. But #87280 changed it to use
`TypeFoldable::is_known_global()` instead, which is pessimistic, so
now the compiler drops the global impl instead (because
`is_known_global` is not sure) and then can't decide between the
two `ParamCandidate`s.
Switching it to use `is_global` again solves the issue.
Fixes#90195.
Revert "Add rustc lint, warning when iterating over hashmaps"
Fixes perf regressions introduced in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/90235 by temporarily reverting the relevant PR.

Use the "nice E0277 errors"[1] for `!Send` `impl Future` from foreign crate
Partly address #78543 by making the error quieter.
We don't have access to the `typeck` tables from foreign crates, so we
used to completely skip the new code when checking foreign crates. Now,
we carry on and don't provide as nice output (we don't clarify *what* is
making the `Future: !Send`), but at least we no longer emit a sea of
derived obligations in the output.

Implement coherence checks for negative trait impls
The main purpose of this PR is to be able to [move Error trait to core](https://github.com/rust-lang/project-error-handling/issues/3).
This feature is necessary to handle the following from impl on box.
```rust
impl From<&str> for Box<dyn Error> { ... }
```
Without having negative traits affect coherence moving the error trait into `core` and moving that `From` impl to `alloc` will cause the from impl to no longer compiler because of a potential future incompatibility. The compiler indicates that `&str` _could_ introduce an `Error` impl in the future, and thus prevents the `From` impl in `alloc` that would cause overlap with `From<E: Error> for Box<dyn Error>`. Adding `impl !Error for &str {}` with the negative trait coherence feature will disable this error by encoding a stability guarantee that `&str` will never implement `Error`, making the `From` impl compile.
We would have this in `alloc`:
```rust
impl From<&str> for Box<dyn Error> {} // A
impl<E> From<E> for Box<dyn Error> where E: Error {} // B
```
and this in `core`:
```rust
trait Error {}
impl !Error for &str {}
```

This PR was built on top of `@yaahc` PR #85764.
Language team proposal: to https://github.com/rust-lang/lang-team/issues/96
This doesn't work properly yet, we would probably need to implement an
`assembly_neg_candidates` and consider things like `T: !AB` as `T: !A`
|| `T: !B`
