RUST DELEGATION LANDS, ANALYZER FIXES REFERENCE COERCION BUG

The compiler shipped delegation without method call generation [ref:6], while rust-analyzer fixed a critical assist that was stacking references instead of converting them [ref:13].

Delegation is now live in the compiler [1], removing the old method call generation path and reusing the method probing engine to handle adjustments. This extends support to trait methods and sets the foundation for free function delegation. The change is part of the larger delegation work tracked in rust-lang/rust#118212 and ships in today's rollup [3], which also includes stdarch updates and better error messages for unimplemented trait methods [3]. Over on rust-analyzer, a nasty bug in the add_reference_here assist is fixed [2]: it was incorrectly stacking references when converting &T to &mut T instead of modifying the existing reference. The fix ships in the latest nightly [12]. On the infrastructure side, the tidy tool got a cleanup [4], and the LLDB debugging integration finally has proper callback registration [5]. Crates.io saw routine updates to the tsoracle driver ecosystem [6] [7] [8], plus a crate deletion [9]. Annotate-snippets pulled in two consecutive prek dependency updates [10] [11], with v0.4.3 fixing stat-only hook rewrites.
