Aaron Hill c6337a6098 Rollup merge of #82269 - LeSeulArtichaut:cleanup-ppmode, r=spastorino
Cleanup `PpMode` and friends

This PR:
 - Separates `PpSourceMode` and `PpHirMode` to remove invalid states
 - Renames the variant to remove the redundant `Ppm` prefix
 - Adds basic documentation for the different pretty-print modes
 - Cleanups some code to make it more idiomatic

Not sure if this is actually useful, but it looks cleaner to me.

The driver crate is effectively the "main" function for the rust compiler. It orchestrates the compilation process and "knits together" the code from the other crates within rustc. This crate itself does not contain any of the "main logic" of the compiler (though it does have some code related to pretty printing or other minor compiler options).

For more information about how the driver works, see the rustc dev guide.
