Removed the dbg! in favor of simpler println! as the dbg! used the debug representation of strings which renders \ as \\ which interacts poorly with compiletest normalization.

Stabilize `-Zremap-path-scope`

# Stabilization report of `--remap-path-scope`

## Summary

RFC 3127 trim-paths aims to improve the current status of sanitizing paths emitted by the compiler via the `--remap-path-prefix=FROM=TO` command line flag, by offering a profile setting named `trim-paths` in Cargo to sanitize absolute paths introduced during compilation that may be embedded in the compiled binary executable or library.

As part of that RFC the compiler was asked to add the `--remap-path-scope` command-line flag to control the scoping of how paths get remapped in the resulting binary.

Tracking:

- rust-lang#111540

### What is stabilized

The rustc `--remap-path-scope` flag is being stabilized by this PR. It defines which scopes of paths should be remapped by `--remap-path-prefix`.

This flag accepts a comma-separated list of values and may be specified multiple times, in which case the scopes are aggregated together.

The valid scopes are:

- `macro` - apply remappings to the expansion of `std::file!()` macro. This is where paths in embedded panic messages come from
- `diagnostics` - apply remappings to printed compiler diagnostics
- `debuginfo` - apply remappings to debug informations
- `coverage` - apply remappings to coverage informations
- `object` - apply remappings to all paths in compiled executables or libraries, but not elsewhere. Currently an alias for `macro,coverage,debuginfo`.
- `all` (default) - an alias for all of the above, also equivalent to supplying only `--remap-path-prefix` without `--remap-path-scope`.

#### Example

```sh
# With `object` scope only the build outputs will be remapped, the diagnostics won't be remapped.
rustc --remap-path-prefix=$(PWD)=/remapped --remap-path-scope=object main.rs
```

### What isn't stabilized

None of the Cargo facility is being stabilized in this stabilization PR, only the `--remap-path-scope` flag in `rustc` is being stabilized.

## Design

### RFC history

- [RFC3127 - trim-paths](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/3127-trim-paths.html)

### Answers to unresolved questions

> What questions were left unresolved by the RFC? How have they been answered? Link to any relevant lang decisions.

There are no unresolved questions regarding `--remap-path-scope`.

(The tracking issue list a bunch of unresolved questions but they are for `--remap-path-prefix` or the bigger picture `trim-paths` in Cargo and are not related the functionality provided by `--remap-path-scope`.)

### Post-RFC changes

The RFC described more scopes, in particularly regarding split debuginfo. Those scopes where removed after analysis by `michaelwoerister` of all the possible combinations in rust-lang#111540 (comment).

### Nightly extensions

There are no nightly extensions.

### Doors closed

We are committing to having to having a flag that control which paths are being remapped based on a "scope".

## Feedback

### Call for testing

> Has a "call for testing" been done? If so, what feedback was received?

No call for testing has been done per se but feedback has been received on both the rust-lang/rust and rust-lang/cargo tracking issue.

The feedback was mainly related to deficiencies in *our best-effort* `--remap-path-prefix` implementation, in particular regarding linkers added paths, which does not change anything for `--remap-path-scope`.

### Nightly use

> Do any known nightly users use this feature? Counting instances of `#![feature(FEATURE_NAME)]` on GitHub with grep might be informative.

Except for Cargo unstable `trim-paths` there doesn't appear any committed use [on GitHub](https://github.com/search?q=%22--remap-path-scope%22+NOT+path%3A%2F%5Esrc%5C%2Fcargo%5C%2Fcore%5C%2Fcompiler%5C%2F%2F+NOT+path%3A%2F%5Etext%5C%2F%2F+NOT+path%3A%2F%5Erust%5C%2Fsrc%5C%2Fdoc%5C%2Funstable-book%5C%2Fsrc%5C%2Fcompiler-flags%5C%2F%2F+NOT+path%3A%2F%5Esrc%5C%2Fdoc%5C%2Funstable-book%5C%2Fsrc%5C%2Fcompiler-flags%5C%2F%2F+NOT+path%3A%2F%5Ecollector%5C%2Fcompile-benchmarks%5C%2Fcargo-0%5C.87%5C.1%5C%2Fsrc%5C%2Fcargo%5C%2Fcore%5C%2Fcompiler%5C%2F%2F&type=code).

> What questions were left unresolved by the RFC? How have they been answered? Link to any relevant lang decisions.

There are no unresolved questions regarding `--remap-path-scope`.

(The tracking issue list a bunch of unresolved questions but they are for `--remap-path-prefix` or the bigger picture `trim-paths` in Cargo and are not related the functionality provided by `--remap-path-scope`.)

### Post-RFC changes

The RFC described more scopes, in particularly regarding split debuginfo. Those scopes where removed after analysis by `michaelwoerister` of all the possible combinations in rust-lang/rust#111540 (comment).

### Nightly extensions

There are no nightly extensions.

### Doors closed

We are committing to having to having a flag that control which paths are being remapped based on a "scope".

## Feedback

### Call for testing

> Has a "call for testing" been done? If so, what feedback was received?

No call for testing has been done per se but feedback has been received on both the rust-lang/rust and rust-lang/cargo tracking issue.

The feedback was mainly related to deficiencies in *our best-effort* `--remap-path-prefix` implementation, in particular regarding linkers added paths, which does not change anything for `--remap-path-scope`.

### Nightly use

> Do any known nightly users use this feature? Counting instances of `#![feature(FEATURE_NAME)]` on GitHub with grep might be informative.

Except for Cargo unstable `trim-paths` there doesn't appear any committed use [on GitHub](https://github.com/search?q=%22--remap-path-scope%22+NOT+path%3A%2F%5Esrc%5C%2Fcargo%5C%2Fcore%5C%2Fcompiler%5C%2F%2F+NOT+path%3A%2F%5Etext%5C%2F%2F+NOT+path%3A%2F%5Erust%5C%2Fsrc%5C%2Fdoc%5C%2Funstable-book%5C%2Fsrc%5C%2Fcompiler-flags%5C%2F%2F+NOT+path%3A%2F%5Esrc%5C%2Fdoc%5C%2Funstable-book%5C%2Fsrc%5C%2Fcompiler-flags%5C%2F%2F+NOT+path%3A%2F%5Ecollector%5C%2Fcompile-benchmarks%5C%2Fcargo-0%5C.87%5C.1%5C%2Fsrc%5C%2Fcargo%5C%2Fcore%5C%2Fcompiler%5C%2F%2F&type=code).

Stabilize `-Zremap-path-scope`

# Stabilization report of `--remap-path-scope`

## Summary

RFC 3127 trim-paths aims to improve the current status of sanitizing paths emitted by the compiler via the `--remap-path-prefix=FROM=TO` command line flag, by offering a profile setting named `trim-paths` in Cargo to sanitize absolute paths introduced during compilation that may be embedded in the compiled binary executable or library.

As part of that RFC the compiler was asked to add the `--remap-path-scope` command-line flag to control the scoping of how paths get remapped in the resulting binary.

Tracking:

- rust-lang/rust#111540

### What is stabilized

The rustc `--remap-path-scope` flag is being stabilized by this PR. It defines which scopes of paths should be remapped by `--remap-path-prefix`.

This flag accepts a comma-separated list of values and may be specified multiple times, in which case the scopes are aggregated together.

The valid scopes are:

- `macro` - apply remappings to the expansion of `std::file!()` macro. This is where paths in embedded panic messages come from
- `diagnostics` - apply remappings to printed compiler diagnostics
- `debuginfo` - apply remappings to debug informations
- `coverage` - apply remappings to coverage informations
- `object` - apply remappings to all paths in compiled executables or libraries, but not elsewhere. Currently an alias for `macro,coverage,debuginfo`.
- `all` (default) - an alias for all of the above, also equivalent to supplying only `--remap-path-prefix` without `--remap-path-scope`.

#### Example

```sh
# With `object` scope only the build outputs will be remapped, the diagnostics won't be remapped.
rustc --remap-path-prefix=$(PWD)=/remapped --remap-path-scope=object main.rs
```

### What isn't stabilized

None of the Cargo facility is being stabilized in this stabilization PR, only the `--remap-path-scope` flag in `rustc` is being stabilized.
