ty::print::pretty's p! macro should support string literals. #70948

Description

@eddyb

E.g. printing ty::Slice(ty) uses:

p!(write("["), print(ty), write("]"))

but we could allow writing it like this, by letting the macro use $...:literal:

p!("[", print(ty), "]")

But I'm not sure the macro can handle it easily.

Maybe we should just have Print implemented for more types and just make p!(a, b, c) print a, b and c (and we can then rename it to print!).
