Commit 6a06f6f72 (Deduplicate reference search results, 2022-11-07) deduplicates references
within each definition.
There is an edge case when requesting references of a macro argument. Apparently, our
descend_into_macros() stanza in references.rs produces a cartesian product of
- references inside the macro times
- times references outside the macro.
Since the above deduplication only applies to the references within a single definition, we
return them all, leading to many redundant references.
Work around this by deduplicating definitions as well. Perhaps there is a better fix to not
produce this cartesian product in the first place; but I think at least for definitions the
problem would remain; a macro can contain multiple definitions of the same name, but since the
navigation target will be the unresolved location, it's the same for all of them.
We can't use unique() because we don't want to drop references that don't have a declaration
(though I dont' have an example for this case).
I discovered this working with the "bitflags" macro from the crate of the same name.
Fixes#16357
This commit also adds `tracing` to NotificationDispatcher/RequestDispatcher,
bumps `rust-analyzer-salsa` to 0.17.0-pre.6, `always-assert` to 0.2, and
removes the homegrown `hprof` implementation in favor of a vendored
tracing-span-tree.
Let `reuse` look inside git submodules
Changes `collect-license-metadata` and `generate-copyright` so they can now look at the git submodules.
Unfortunately `reuse` chokes on the LLVM submodule - it finds the word "Copyright" or the unicode copyright symbol in all kinds of places, including UTF-8 test cases. The `reuse` tool expressly won't let you ignore folders, so we let it scan everything and then strip out the LLVM sub-folder in post. Instead, we add in a hand-curated list of copyright information gleaned by reading the LLVM codebase carefully, which is stored in `.reuse/dep5` in Debian format where `reuse` can find and use it.
The `.reuse/dep5` continues to track copyright info for files in the tree that do not have SPDX metadata in them (i.e. all of them)
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.
