expand: Stop using nonterminals for passing tokens to attribute and derive macros
Make one more step towards fully token-based expansion and fix issues described in rust-lang#72545 (comment).
Now `struct S;` is passed to `foo!(struct S;)` and `#[foo] struct S;` in the same way - as a token stream `struct S ;`, rather than a single non-terminal token `NtItem` which is then broken into parts later.
The cost is making pretty-printing of token streams less pretty.
Some of the pretty-printing regressions will be recovered by keeping jointness with each token, which we will need to do anyway.
Unfortunately, this is not exactly the same thing as rust-lang#73102.
One more observable effect is how `$crate` is printed in the attribute input.
Inside `NtItem` was printed as `crate` or `that_crate`, now as a part of a token stream it's printed as `$crate` (there are good reasons for these differences, see rust-lang#62393 and related PRs).
This may break old proc macros (custom derives) written before the main portion of the proc macro API (macros 1.2) was stabilized, those macros did `input.to_string()` and reparsed the result, now that result can contain `$crate` which cannot be reparsed.
So, I think we should do this regardless, but we need to run crater first.
