Stabilize `unrestricted_attribute_tokens`
In accordance with a plan described in https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/unrestricted-attribute-tokens-feature-status/8561/3.
Delimited non-macro non-builtin attributes now support the same syntax as macro attributes:
```
PATH
PATH `(` TOKEN_STREAM `)`
PATH `[` TOKEN_STREAM `]`
PATH `{` TOKEN_STREAM `}`
```
Such attributes mostly serve as inert proc macro helpers or tool attributes.
To some extent these attributes are de-facto stable due to a hole in feature gate checking (feature gating is done too late - after macro expansion.)
So if macro *removes* such helper attributes during expansion (and it must remove them, unless it's a derive macro), then the code will work on stable.
Key-value non-macro non-builtin attributes are now restricted to bare minimum required to support what we support on stable - unsuffixed literals (#34981).
```
PATH `=` LITERAL
```
(Key-value macro attributes are not supported at all right now.)
Crater run in #57321 found no regressions for this change.
There are multiple possible ways to extend key-value attributes (#57321 (comment)), but I'd expect an RFC for that and it's not a pressing enough issue to block stabilization of delimited attributes.
Built-in attributes are still restricted to the "classic" meta-item syntax, nothing changes here.
#57321 goes further and adds some additional restrictions (more consistent input checking) to built-in attributes.
Closes#55208
