Auto merge of #48326 - RalfJung:generic-bounds, r=petrochenkov

Warn about ignored generic bounds in `for`

This adds a new lint to fix #42181. For consistency and to avoid code duplication, I also moved the existing "bounds in type aliases are ignored" here.

Questions to the reviewer:
* Is it okay to just remove a diagnostic error code like this? Should I instead keep the warning about type aliases where it is? The old code provided a detailed explanation of what's going on when asked, that information is now lost. On the other hand, `span_warn!` seems deprecated (after this patch, it has exactly one user left!).
* Did I miss any syntactic construct that can appear as `for` in the surface syntax? I covered function types (`for<'a> fn(...)`), generic traits (`for <'a> Fn(...)`, can appear both as bounds as as trait objects) and bounds (`for<'a> F: ...`).
* For the sake of backwards compatibility, this adds a warning, not an error. @nikomatsakis suggested an error in #42181 (comment), but I feel that can only happen in a new epoch -- right?
