Currently, rustc can emit a FatalError diagnostic during parsing of literals and tokenstreams. These are handled under the hood as a panic, which means that proc-macro code needed to catch_unwind if it wanted to fallibly parse some code. These still emit diagnostics, so in practice this isn't a full fix, but it at least makes the interface on the macro side a bit more uniform. This is primarily motivated by wasm proc macros which can't use catch_unwind and so this lets the test's output be the same with and without them.

Currently, rustc can emit a FatalError diagnostic during parsing of literals and tokenstreams. These are handled under the hood as a panic, which means that proc-macro code needed to catch_unwind if it wanted to fallibly parse some code. These still emit diagnostics, so in practice this isn't a full fix, but it at least makes the interface on the macro side a bit more uniform. The long-term fix should be to get rid of those FatalErrors (and in general all diagnostics that actually get emitted out during parsing, not just returned), but this seems like a reasonable improvement in the meantime.
This is primarily motivated by wasm proc macros which can't use catch_unwind and so this lets the test's output be the same with and without them.
