Implement the toolchain side of proposal #7254, removing the `:!`
binding
syntax for generic and template parameters in favor of the keywords
`generic`,
`template`, and `runtime` plus contextual defaults for phase.
For valid programs this is semantics-preserving: each binding resolves
to the
same phase, and produces the same SemIR, as it did under `:!`/`:`. The
parser
derives a binding's phase from its syntactic context plus any explicit
phase
keyword; new diagnostics and error recovery for misused keywords are
described
below.
Implementation details for each component:
- Lexer: remove the `:!` (`ColonExclaim`) token, move its virtual
parse-node
budget onto `:`, and add the `generic` and `runtime` keywords.
- Parser: thread a `BindingContext` (`ExplicitParam`, `DeducedParam`, or
`CompileTimeEntityParam`) from declaration introducers down through
parameter
lists to each binding pattern, using a one-token lookahead to
distinguish a
name-qualifier parameter list from a declaration's own final list.
Parameters
of a compile-time entity (`class`, `interface`, `constraint`, `choice`,
`alias`, `export`, `namespace`) and deduced `[]` parameters default to
checked
generic; explicit function parameters and local bindings default to
runtime.
`HandleBindingPattern` resolves the phase from that context plus the
keyword: a
`generic` keyword needs no node of its own (the phase is carried by the
binding's node kind), while a `runtime` keyword is preserved as a
`RuntimeBindingName` node so `check` can name it in a diagnostic. A
phase
keyword that is merely redundant with the contextual default is
diagnosed
here, without invalidating the parse tree.
- Check: a phase keyword that is invalid for its context (for example
`runtime`
on a checked-generic parameter) is diagnosed here, and recovers by
building an
error binding that still introduces the name so that later uses of it do
not
produce cascading errors.
The removed `:!` syntax is now rejected as an ordinary parse error.
The `form`/`:?`/`->?` ("extended types") portion of proposal #7254 is
left for a
separate change.

Implementation of unused pattern bindings #2022, continued.
Whereas previous PR #6460 took care of parsing, and PR #6479 prepared
the stage by using _ in some test cases, this PR has the the actual
implementation, using a simple dataflow analysis.

The main direction of this change is the edits to `destroy.carbon`
(matching in both prelude and min_prelude).
Previously there was a no-op blanket impl for `Destroy`, which hid all
missing implementations of `Destroy`. This does a few things:
- Sets up builtin aggregate destruction for struct and tuple types as
before, but also adds C++ class types and array types to the same
handling. (all as a TODO for actual implementation)
- Also maybe-unformed destruction, for now at least. (there's a chance I
may try a different approach on this, but the impl lookup wasn't working
as I'd hope in order to write it in code)
- Adds handlers for simple things that are easy to do in code: `type`,
`bool`, pointers. (because these are no-op destruction)
- Redirect `const T` destruction to `T` destruction.
This leaves as future issues:
- `partial T` destruction. (this can't be done similar to `const`
because it only works for non-`final` class types; I think `class`
definitions should just generate what's needed)
- Destruction of other prelude-provided types. (will probably come up as
we implement class destruction, that the adapted builtin type doesn't
implement `Destroy` -- but may end up special-casing that in a way that
moots it)
This moves the `&` operator from `facet_types.carbon` to
`convert.carbon` because more things need to handle type and now that
we're getting separate copy and destroy interfaces. It should be
low-cost (an interface and builtin) so hopefully this is the right
balance for complexity and re-use.
A few tests are also edited in order to focus them more on what they
intend to test, and avoid a `Destroy` dependency.
Now that included files can specify `EXTRA-ARGS`, this uses that to
handle min_prelude files. Also moves `As`/`ImplicitAs` out to a shared
file, partly because we duplicate it a few times over, partly just to
show that it works.
Also removes the `min_prelude/` subdirectories because many of these
files were touched by autoupdate regardless. I noticed one conflict for
`impl_thunk.carbon`, so renaming that one to
`impl_thunk_min_prelude.carbon`.
`GetArgReplacements` I simply noticed was unused, so removing it.
