Description

@Veykril said:

Another thing (also from the salsa migration) is the fact hat we currently use #[salsa::interned(.., no_lifetime)] in a bunch of places. no_lifetime is a hack that we also need to remove at some point, but the issue with that is that this infests a lot of places with lifetimes, so we need to incrementally start adding lifetimes where required until we at some point can remove these no_lifetime uses.
