This change adds a check in the #[global_allocator] macro to prevent simultaneous use with #[thread_local], which is logically incompatible. The global allocator must be a single instance across all threads. Fixes rust-lang#85517

Summary
Disallow simultaneous use of
#[global_allocator]and#[thread_local]on the same static item. This fixes a logical incompatibility where the global allocator (a single program-wide instance) cannot coexist with thread-local storage.Test Plan
src/test/ui/allocator/global-allocator-thread-local-conflict.rsthat verifies the error is emitted when both attributes are present.#[global_allocator](without#[thread_local]) still compile successfully.Related Issues
Fixes #85517.
Rationale
The global allocator is designed to be a single instance shared across all threads. Using
#[thread_local]would create a separate instance per thread, which contradicts the purpose of the global allocator and could lead to unexpected behavior. Adding this check prevents such invalid code from compiling.
