Why is this preferable?
I used resolve_path solely for stylistic reasons - it returns exactly what we want here (PathResolution), and returns "fully correct" result with all the adjustments like Def::Local -> Def::Upvar (even if they don't matter here).
I also don't like mixing "intermediate" resolution byproducts like LocalDef with final PathResolutions, again for stylistic reasons - high-level routines like resolve_pattern should work only with the latter. Can resolve_identifier return fully adjusted Result<PathResolution>, like resolve_path?

I changed from resolve_path to resolve_identifier specifically to avoid the adjustments.
For example, consider:

fn f(x: i32) {
    fn g(x: i32) {}
}

Here, if we call resolve_path on g's argument x, it "should" resolve to f's argument x. When this resolution gets adjusted, it would emit

can't capture dynamic environment in a fn item

(since we've already pushed the Ribs for g), which we clearly don't want.

I say "should" because right now, g's argument x does not resolve to f's argument x because of an implementation detail of the current hygiene algorithm. I'm working on a simplification of the hygiene algorithm after which g's argument x will resolve to f's argument x, and this change is groundwork for that.

Something is wrong here. Ideally, the adjustment routine should not report "can't capture" errors, it should just leave Locals outside of closures unadjusted.
Regarding

fn f(x: i32) {
    fn g(x: i32) {}
}

the consensus in #33118 seemed to be that items in block scopes are isolated from local variables, i.e. g shouldn't "see" the outer x and the inner x won't resolve to it.

@petrochenkov
I agree with that consensus, but haven't gotten around to implementing it yet. Once that's implemented and the inner x doesn't resolve to the outer x as you described, I agree that it would probably be better to use resolve_path or to have resolve_identifier do adjustment.

Ok, this is not a big deal anyway.

What is the motivation for the first commit? The precise behaviour here was not specified in the RFC (16) and I don't see why one behaviour is better than the other. (My personal preference is not to allow attributes on expressions, only statements, and implementing that would require reverting this commit, I think).

I don't think the first commit will change any observable behavior (correct me if I'm wrong). Also, I don't think it would preclude forbidding attributes on expressions.

My motivation is to have each attribute apply to exactly one AST node. Right now, we consider attributes on an item in a statement position to apply to both the item and the statement (that is, the attribute is included in stmt.attrs() and item.attrs()). After the first commit, stmt.attrs() will be empty on item declaration statements so that the item's attributes are only in item.attrs().

That being said, this isn't a big deal -- if you still don't like it I'll remove that commit.
