Motivation
Motivation is to fix #5518, by no longer attaching questionable spans to tokens for improved diagnostics.
Solution
Turns out we can further improve diagnostics while not having to attach tail expression spans to tokens, bringing the diagnostics closer to what rustc reports for non
tokio
attributed async functions by just re-emitting a local version of the annotated function instead of using an async block. Compare the test output with the output of the non attributed versions (playground link for those)They are now equal.
Closes #5518
