Module rustc_session::config::cfg

cfg and check-cfg configuration

This module contains the definition of Cfg and CheckCfg as well as the logic for creating the default configuration for a given Session.

It also contains the filling of the well known configs, which should ALWAYS be in sync with the default_configuration.

Adding a new cfg

Adding a new feature requires two new symbols one for the cfg it-self and the second one for the unstable feature gate, those are defined in rustc_span::symbol.

As well as the following points,

• Add the activation logic in default_configuration
• Add the cfg to CheckCfg::fill_well_known (and related files), so that the compiler can know the cfg is expected
• Add the cfg in disallow_cfgs to disallow users from setting it via --cfg
• Add the feature gating in compiler/rustc_feature/src/builtin_attrs.rs
