This PR implements template strings (t-strings) in the parser and
formatter for Ruff.
Minimal changes necessary to compile were made in other parts of the code (e.g. ty, the linter, etc.). These will be covered properly in follow-up PRs.
While looking into potential AST optimizations, I noticed the `AstNode`
trait and `AnyNode` type aren't used anywhere in Ruff or Red Knot. It
looks like they might be historical artifacts of previous ways of
consuming AST nodes?
- `AstNode::cast`, `AstNode::cast_ref`, and `AstNode::can_cast` are not
used anywhere.
- Since `cast_ref` isn't needed anymore, the `Ref` associated type isn't
either.
This is a pure refactoring, with no intended behavior changes.
This PR replaces most of the hard-coded AST definitions with a
generation script, similar to what happens in `rust_python_formatter`.
I've replaced every "rote" definition that I could find, where the
content is entirely boilerplate and only depends on what syntax nodes
there are and which groups they belong to.
This is a pretty massive diff, but it's entirely a refactoring. It
should make absolutely no changes to the API or implementation. In
particular, this required adding some configuration knobs that let us
override default auto-generated names where they don't line up with
types that we created previously by hand.
## Test plan
There should be no changes outside of the `rust_python_ast` crate, which
verifies that there were no API changes as a result of the
auto-generation. Aggressive `cargo clippy` and `uvx pre-commit` runs
after each commit in the branch.

This PR splits the string formatting code in the formatter to be handled
by the respective nodes.
Previously, the string formatting was done through a single
`FormatString` interface. Now, the nodes themselves are responsible for
formatting.
The following changes were made:
1. Remove `StringLayout::ImplicitStringConcatenationInBinaryLike` and
inline the call to `FormatStringContinuation`. After the refactor, the
binary like formatting would delegate to `FormatString` which would then
delegate to `FormatStringContinuation`. This removes the intermediary
steps.
2. Add formatter implementation for `FStringPart` which delegates it to
the respective string literal or f-string node.
3. Add `ExprStringLiteralKind` which is either `String` or `Docstring`.
If it's a docstring variant, then the string expression would not be
implicitly concatenated. This is guaranteed by the
`DocstringStmt::try_from_expression` constructor.
4. Add `StringLiteralKind` which is either a `String`, `Docstring` or
`InImplicitlyConcatenatedFString`. The last variant is for when the
string literal is implicitly concatenated with an f-string (`"foo" f"bar
{x}"`).
5. Remove `FormatString`.
6. Extract the f-string quote detection as a standalone function which
is public to the crate. This is used to detect the quote to be used for
an f-string at the expression level (`ExprFString` or
`FormatStringContinuation`).

Rebase of #6365 authored by @davidszotten.
## Summary
This PR updates the AST structure for an f-string elements.
The main **motivation** behind this change is to have a dedicated node
for the string part of an f-string. Previously, the existing
`ExprStringLiteral` node was used for this purpose which isn't exactly
correct. The `ExprStringLiteral` node should include the quotes as well
in the range but the f-string literal element doesn't include the quote
as it's a specific part within an f-string. For example,
```python
f"foo {x}"
# ^^^^
# This is the literal part of an f-string
```
The introduction of `FStringElement` enum is helpful which represent
either the literal part or the expression part of an f-string.
### Rule Updates
This means that there'll be two nodes representing a string depending on
the context. One for a normal string literal while the other is a string
literal within an f-string. The AST checker is updated to accommodate
this change. The rules which work on string literal are updated to check
on the literal part of f-string as well.
#### Notes
1. The `Expr::is_literal_expr` method would check for
`ExprStringLiteral` and return true if so. But now that we don't
represent the literal part of an f-string using that node, this improves
the method's behavior and confines to the actual expression. We do have
the `FStringElement::is_literal` method.
2. We avoid checking if we're in a f-string context before adding to
`string_type_definitions` because the f-string literal is now a
dedicated node and not part of `Expr`.
3. Annotations cannot use f-string so we avoid changing any rules which
work on annotation and checks for `ExprStringLiteral`.
## Test Plan
- All references of `Expr::StringLiteral` were checked to see if any of
the rules require updating to account for the f-string literal element
node.
- New test cases are added for rules which check against the literal
part of an f-string.
- Check the ecosystem results and ensure it remains unchanged.
## Performance
There's a performance penalty in the parser. The reason for this remains
unknown as it seems that the generated assembly code is now different
for the `__reduce154` function. The reduce function body is just popping
the `ParenthesizedExpr` on top of the stack and pushing it with the new
location.
- The size of `FStringElement` enum is the same as `Expr` which is what
it replaces in `FString::format_spec`
- The size of `FStringExpressionElement` is the same as
`ExprFormattedValue` which is what it replaces
I tried reducing the `Expr` enum from 80 bytes to 72 bytes but it hardly
resulted in any performance gain. The difference can be seen here:
- Original profile: https://share.firefox.dev/3Taa7ES
- Profile after boxing some node fields:
https://share.firefox.dev/3GsNXpD
### Backtracking
I tried backtracking the changes to see if any of the isolated change
produced this regression. The problem here is that the overall change is
so small that there's only a single checkpoint where I can backtrack and
that checkpoint results in the same regression. This checkpoint is to
revert using `Expr` to the `FString::format_spec` field. After this
point, the change would revert back to the original implementation.
## Review process
The review process is similar to #7927. The first set of commits update
the node structure, parser, and related AST files. Then, further commits
update the linter and formatter part to account for the AST change.

Part of #5062
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/issues/5931
Implements formatting of a sequence of type parameters in a dedicated
struct for reuse by classes, functions, and type aliases (preparing for
#5929). Adds formatting of type parameters in class and function
definitions — previously, they were just elided.
## Summary
This is the result of running `cargo +nightly clippy --workspace
--all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings` and fixing all violations.
Just wanted to see if there were any interesting new checks on nightly
