The very point of compile_error! is to never be reached, and one of the use cases of the macro, currently also listed as examples in the documentation of compile_error, is to create nicer errors for wrong macro invocations. Thus, we shuuld never warn about unused macro arms that contain invocations of compile_error.
Prior to this commit, if a macro had any malformed rules, all rules would be reported as unused, regardless of whether they were used or not. So we just turn off unused rule checking completely for macros with malformed rules.
The unused_macro_rules lint had a bug where it would regard all rules of a macro as unused if one rule were malformed. This bug doesn't exist with the unused_macros lint. To ensure it doesn't appear in the future, we add a test for it.

…ror, r=petrochenkov Never regard macro rules with compile_error! invocations as unused The very point of compile_error! is to never be reached, and one of the use cases of the macro, currently also listed as examples in the documentation of compile_error, is to create nicer errors for wrong macro invocations. Thus, we should never warn about unused macro arms that contain invocations of compile_error. See also rust-lang#96150 (comment) and the discussion after that. Furthermore, the PR also contains two commits to silence `unused_macro_rules` when a macro has an invalid rule, and to add a test that `unused_macros` does not behave badly in the same situation. r? `@petrochenkov` as I've talked to them about this
