Rollup merge of #133603 - dtolnay:precedence, r=lcnr
Eliminate magic numbers from expression precedence
Context: see rust-lang/rust#133140.
This PR continues on backporting Syn's expression precedence design into rustc. Rustc's design used mysterious integer quantities represented variously as `i8` or `usize` (e.g. `PREC_CLOSURE = -40i8`), a special significance around `0` that is never named, and an extra `PREC_FORCE_PAREN` precedence level that does not correspond to any expression. Syn's design uses a C-like enum with variants that clearly correspond to specific sets of expression kinds.
This PR is a refactoring that has no intended behavior change on its own, but it unblocks other precedence work that rustc's precedence design was poorly suited to accommodate.
- Asymmetrical precedence, so that a pretty-printer can tell `(return 1) + 1` needs parens but `1 + return 1` does not.
- Squashing the `Closure` and `Jump` cases into a single precedence level.
- Numerous remaining false positives and false negatives in rustc pretty-printer's parenthesization of macro metavariables, for example in `$e < rhs` where $e is `lhs as Thing<T>`.
FYI `@fmease` — you don't need to review if rustbot picks someone else, but you mentioned being interested in the followup PRs.
