Auto merge of #7507 - ehuss:virtual-ws-features, r=alexcrichton

Reject feature flags in a virtual workspace.

This generates an error if feature flags are used in the root of a virtual workspace. Previously these flags were completely ignored.  In the interest of avoiding confusion, I think it would be good to be explicit that these don't currently work.  This could alternatively be a warning, but I think it is better to reject it outright.

cc #4753, #3620, #5015, #6195, etc.
