Rename HIR `TypeBinding` to `AssocItemConstraint` and related cleanup
Rename `hir::TypeBinding` and `ast::AssocConstraint` to `AssocItemConstraint` and update all items and locals using the old terminology.
Motivation: The terminology *type binding* is extremely outdated. "Type bindings" not only include constraints on associated *types* but also on associated *constants* (feature `associated_const_equality`) and on RPITITs of associated *functions* (feature `return_type_notation`). Hence the word *item* in the new name. Furthermore, the word *binding* commonly refers to a mapping from a binder/identifier to a "value" for some definition of "value". Its use in "type binding" made sense when equality constraints (e.g., `AssocTy = Ty`) were the only kind of associated item constraint. Nowadays however, we also have *associated type bounds* (e.g., `AssocTy: Bound`) for which the term *binding* doesn't make sense.

Old terminology (HIR, rustdoc):
```
`TypeBinding`: (associated) type binding
├── `Constraint`: associated type bound
└── `Equality`: (associated) equality constraint (?)
├── `Ty`: (associated) type binding
└── `Const`: associated const equality (constraint)
```
Old terminology (AST, abbrev.):
```
`AssocConstraint`
├── `Bound`
└── `Equality`
├── `Ty`
└── `Const`
```
New terminology (AST, HIR, rustdoc):
```
`AssocItemConstraint`: associated item constraint
├── `Bound`: associated type bound
└── `Equality`: associated item equality constraint OR associated item binding (for short)
├── `Ty`: associated type equality constraint OR associated type binding (for short)
└── `Const`: associated const equality constraint OR associated const binding (for short)
```

The current way of stepping through each comment in `Comments` is a bit
weird. There is a `Vec<Comments>` and a `current` index, which is fine.
The `Comments::next` method clones the current comment but doesn't
advance `current`; the advancing instead happens in `print_comment`,
which is where each cloned comment is actually finally used (or not, in
some cases, if the comment fails to satisfy a predicate).
This commit makes things more iterator-like:
- `Comments::next` now advances `current` instead of `print_comment`.
- `Comments::peek` is added so you can inspect a comment and check a
predicate without consuming it.
- This requires splitting `PrintState::comments` into immutable and
mutable versions. The commit also moves the ref inside the `Option` of
the return type, to save callers from having to use `as_ref`/`as_mut`.
- It also requires adding `PrintState::peek_comment` alongside the
existing `PrintState::next_comment`. (The lifetimes in the signature
of `peek_comment` ended up more complex than I expected.)
We now have a neat separation between consuming (`next`) and
non-consuming (`peek`) uses of each comment. As well as being clearer,
this will facilitate the next commit that avoids unnecessary cloning.
Implement syntax for `impl Trait` to specify its captures explicitly (`feature(precise_capturing)`)
Implements `impl use<'a, 'b, T, U> Sized` syntax that allows users to explicitly list the captured parameters for an opaque, rather than inferring it from the opaque's bounds (or capturing *all* lifetimes under 2024-edition capture rules). This allows us to exclude some implicit captures, so this syntax may be used as a migration strategy for changes due to #117587.
We represent this list of captured params as `PreciseCapturingArg` in AST and HIR, resolving them between `rustc_resolve` and `resolve_bound_vars`. Later on, we validate that the opaques only capture the parameters in this list.
We artificially limit the feature to *require* mentioning all type and const parameters, since we don't currently have support for non-lifetime bivariant generics. This can be relaxed in the future.
We also may need to limit this to require naming *all* lifetime parameters for RPITIT, since GATs have no variance. I have to investigate this. This can also be relaxed in the future.

Invert diagnostic lints.
That is, change `diagnostic_outside_of_impl` and `untranslatable_diagnostic` from `allow` to `deny`, because more than half of the compiler has been converted to use translated diagnostics.
This commit removes more `deny` attributes than it adds `allow` attributes, which proves that this change is warranted.

Collect lang items from AST, get rid of `GenericBound::LangItemTrait`
r? `@cjgillot`
cc #115178
Looking forward, the work to remove `QPath::LangItem` will also be significantly more difficult, but I plan on doing it as well. Specifically, we have to change:
1. A lot of `rustc_ast_lowering` for things like expr `..`
2. A lot of astconv, since we actually instantiate lang and non-lang paths quite differently.
3. A ton of diagnostics and clippy lints that are special-cased via `QPath::LangItem`
Meanwhile, it was pretty easy to remove `GenericBound::LangItemTrait`, so I just did that here.
detects redundant imports that can be eliminated.
for #117772 :
In order to facilitate review and modification, split the checking code and
removing redundant imports code into two PR.
The AST and HIR versions of `State::print_ident` are textually
identical, but the types differ slightly. This commit factors out the
common code they both have by replacing `print_ident` with `ann_post`,
which is a smaller function that still captures the type difference.
