Fix implicit closure return type generation for libsyntax

The `lambda` function for constructing closures in libsyntax was explicitly setting the return type to `_`, which resulted in incorrect corresponding syntax (as `|| -> _ x` is not valid, without the enclosing brackets). This meant the generated code, when printed, was invalid.

I also took the opportunity to slightly improve the generated code for the `RustcEncodable::encode` method for unit structs.

Fixes #42213.
