Compiling simple (but long) code with lots of `async`/`await` takes hours

[Yoric]

I attempted to compile the attached code (see z.zip).

The code is basically a bunch of

let node_i = async {
   let node_a = node_a.cloned().await;
   let node_b = node_b.cloned().await;
   // ...
   let result : Data = [...];
   result
}.shared(); // From `futures::future::FutureExt`

Attempting to build this with 5-10 nodes works nicely. Attempting to build this with 100 nodes... well, I gave up after 173 minutes. I looked at a second run, which took 45Gb of RAM.

Meta

Tested with

• rustc 1.45.0-nightly (664fcd3 2020-05-27);
• rustc 1.43.1 (8d69840 2020-05-04)

on macOS 10.15.5 (19F96) on a 8 cores macBook Pro.

Notes

The problem appears even without the dependency to crate futures. It's just not correct wrt borrow checking.

@jonas-schievink I just killed the compiler. It took 45Gb RAM, so this probably also deserves an I-compilemem.

It's not responsible for most of the slowdown here, but check_mod_privacy really shouldn't be that slow?

This seems to result in extremely complex types that take a long time to process (some generator witness types contain hundreds of bound lifetimes, although they never contain more than a few dozen types each)
