![]() 7891: Improve handling of rustc_private r=matklad a=DJMcNab
This PR changes how `rust-analyzer` handles `rustc_private`. In particular, packages now must opt-in to using `rustc_private` in `Cargo.toml`, by adding:
```toml
[package.metadata.rust-analyzer]
rustc_private=true
```
This means that depending on crates which also use `rustc_private` will be significantly improved, since their dependencies on the `rustc_private` crates will be resolved properly.
A similar approach could be used in #6714 to allow annotating that your package uses the `test` crate, although I have not yet handled that in this PR.
Additionally, we now only index the crates which are transitive dependencies of `rustc_driver` in the `rustcSource` directory. This should not cause any change in behaviour when using `rustcSource: "discover"`, as the source used then will only be a partial clone. However, if `rustcSource` pointing at a local checkout of rustc, this should significantly improve the memory usage and lower indexing time. This is because we avoids indexing all crates in `src/tools/`, which includes `rust-analyzer` itself.
Furthermore, we also prefer named dependencies over dependencies from `rustcSource`. This ensures that feature resolution for crates which are depended on by both `rustc` and your crate uses the correct set for analysing your crate.
