3efe51eb8b Reorganize and rewrite examples
This commit is a large-ish scale reorganization of our examples. The
main goal here is to have a dedicated section of the guide for example,
and all examples will be listed there. Each example's `README` is now
just boilerplate pointing at the guide along with a blurb about how to
run it.

Some examples like `math` and `smorgasboard` have been deleted as they
didn't really serve much purpose, and others like `closures` have been
rewritten with `web-sys` instead of hand-bound bindings.

Overall it's hoped that this puts us in a good and consistent state for
our examples, with all of them being described in the guide, excerpts
are in the guide, and they're all relatively idiomatically using
`web-sys`.

Prepare to have targeted error diagnostics (#604)
This commit starts to add infrastructure for targeted diagnostics in the
`#[wasm_bindgen]` attribute, intended eventually at providing much better errors
as they'll be pointing to exactly the code in question rather than always to a
`#[wasm_bindgen]` attribute.

The general changes are are:

* A new `Diagnostic` error type is added to the backend. A `Diagnostic` is
  created with a textual error or with a span, and it can also be created from a
  list of diagnostics. A `Diagnostic` implements `ToTokens` which emits a bunch
  of invocations of `compile_error!` that will cause rustc to later generate
  errors.

* Fallible implementations of `ToTokens` have switched to using a new trait,
  `TryToTokens`, which returns a `Result` to use `?` with.

* The `MacroParse` trait has changed to returning a `Result` to propagate errors
  upwards.

* A new `ui-tests` crate was added which uses `compiletest_rs` to add UI tests.
  These UI tests will verify that our output improves over time and does not
  regress. This test suite is added to CI as a new builder as well.

* No `Diagnostic` instances are created just yet, everything continues to panic
  and return `Ok`, with the one exception of the top-level invocations of
  `syn::parse` which now create a `Diagnostic` and pass it along.

This commit does not immediately improve diagnostics but the intention is that
it is laying the groundwork for improving diagnostics over time. It should
ideally be much easier to contribute improved diagnostics after this commit!
