`macro-issue1233.rs` is broken on big-endian systems

[CohenArthur]

The issue probably comes to how we perform cfg expansion in blocks, regarding statements and final expressions. Here is a test case failing as well on LE systems.

// { dg-additional-options "-w" }

macro_rules! impl_uint {
    ($($ty:ident = $lang:literal),*) => {
        $(
            impl $ty {
                pub fn to_le(self) -> Self {
                    #[cfg(not(target_endian = "big"))]
                    {
                        self
                    }
                    #[cfg(target_endian = "big")]
                    {
                        self
                    }
                }
            }
        )*
    }
}

impl_uint!(u8 = "u8", u16 = "u16", u32 = "u32");

The order of the "blocks + cfg" in the test case matter, which means that what is probably happening is we are parsing the first block + cfg as a statement. When the second block + cfg gets removed, due to the predicate not being met, we end up with a statement and no return expression. So the function gets a Self as a statement, ignores that, returns a (), and we get a type error.

And for an example that rustc can compile without complaining about redefining primitive items:

// { dg-additional-options "-w" }

macro_rules! impl_uint {
    ($($ty:ident = $lang:literal),*) => {
        $(
            struct $ty;

            impl $ty {
                pub fn to_le(self) -> Self {
                    #[cfg(not(target_endian = "big"))]
                    {
                        self
                    }
                    #[cfg(target_endian = "big")]
                    {
                        self
                    }
                }
            }
        )*
    }
}

impl_uint!(z1 = "z1", z16 = "z16", z12 = "z12");

The corresponding struct in rustc simply contains one Vec<Stmt> and no optional tail expression: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/77972d2d0134fb597249b3b64dcf9510a790c34e/compiler/rustc_ast/src/ast.rs#L567-L583

This should be fixed by #2156 as well
