bootstrap major change detection implementation
The use of `changelog-seen` and `bootstrap/CHANGELOG.md` has not been functional in any way for many years. We often do major/breaking changes but never update the changelog file or the `changelog-seen`. This is an alternative method for tracking major or breaking changes and informing developers when such changes occur.
Example output when bootstrap detects a major change:

This fixes the changes brought to codegen tests when effect params are
added to libcore, by not attempting to monomorphize functions that get
the host param by being `const fn`.
codegen_llvm/llvm_type: avoid matching on the Rust type
This `match` is highly suspicious. Looking at `scalar_llvm_type_at` I think it makes no difference. But if it were to make a difference that would be a huge problem, since it doesn't look through `repr(transparent)`!

Use the same DISubprogram for each instance of the same inlined function within a caller
# Issue Details:
The call to `panic` within a function like `Option::unwrap` is translated to LLVM as a `tail call` (as it will never return), when multiple calls to the same function like this is inlined LLVM will notice the common `tail call` block (i.e., loading the same panic string + location info and then calling `panic`) and merge them together.
When merging these instructions together, LLVM will also attempt to merge the debug locations as well, but this fails (i.e., debug info is dropped) as Rust emits a new `DISubprogram` at each inline site thus LLVM doesn't recognize that these are actually the same function and so thinks that there isn't a common debug location.
As an example of this when building for x86_64 Windows (note the lack of `.cv_loc` before the call to `panic`, thus it will be attributed to the same line at the `addq` instruction):
```
.cv_loc 0 1 23 0 # src\lib.rs:23:0
addq $40, %rsp
retq
leaq .Lalloc_f570dea0a53168780ce9a91e67646421(%rip), %rcx
leaq .Lalloc_629ace53b7e5b76aaa810d549cc84ea3(%rip), %r8
movl $43, %edx
callq _ZN4core9panicking5panic17h12e60b9063f6dee8E
int3
```
# Fix Details:
Cache the `DISubprogram` emitted for each inlined function instance within a caller so that this can be reused if that instance is encountered again, this also requires caching the `DILexicalBlock` and `DIVariable` objects to avoid creating duplicates.
After this change the above assembly now looks like:
```
.cv_loc 0 1 23 0 # src\lib.rs:23:0
addq $40, %rsp
retq
.cv_inline_site_id 5 within 0 inlined_at 1 0 0
.cv_inline_site_id 6 within 5 inlined_at 1 12 0
.cv_loc 6 2 935 0 # library\core\src\option.rs:935:0
leaq .Lalloc_5f55955de67e57c79064b537689facea(%rip), %rcx
leaq .Lalloc_e741d4de8cb5801e1fd7a6c6795c1559(%rip), %r8
movl $43, %edx
callq _ZN4core9panicking5panic17hde1558f32d5b1c04E

```
Use `unstable_target_features` when checking inline assembly
This is necessary to properly validate register classes even when the relevant target feature name is still unstable.
Add a new `compare_bytes` intrinsic instead of calling `memcmp` directly
As discussed in #113435, this lets the backends be the place that can have the "don't call the function if n == 0" logic, if it's needed for the target. (I didn't actually *add* those checks, though, since as I understood it we didn't actually need them on known targets?)
Doing this also let me make it `const` (unstable), which I don't think `extern "C" fn memcmp` can be.

cleanup: remove pointee types
This can't be merged until the oldest LLVM version we support uses opaque pointers, which will be the case after #114148. (Also note `-Cllvm-args="-opaque-pointers=0"` can technically be used in LLVM 15, though I don't think we should support that configuration.)
I initially hoped this would provide some minor perf win, but in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/105412#issuecomment-1341224450 it had very little impact, so this is only valuable as a cleanup.
As a followup, this will enable #96242 to be resolved.

Reuse `codegen_ssa` monomorphization errors in `codegen_gcc`
Removes monomorphization errors duplication by reusing the ones defined in `codegen_ssa`.
Also updates `expected_simd` errors usage in `codegen_gcc` by assuming we want to treat those parameters as translatable. See 7a888fb56e
Prototype: Add unstable `-Z reference-niches` option
MCP: rust-lang/compiler-team#641
Relevant RFC: rust-lang/rfcs#3204
This prototype adds a new `-Z reference-niches` option, controlling the range of valid bit-patterns for reference types (`&T` and `&mut T`), thereby enabling new enum niching opportunities. Like `-Z randomize-layout`, this setting is crate-local; as such, references to built-in types (primitives, tuples, ...) are not affected.
The possible settings are (here, `MAX` denotes the all-1 bit-pattern):
| `-Z reference-niches=` | Valid range |
|:---:|:---:|
| `null` (the default) | `1..=MAX` |
| `size` | `1..=(MAX- size)` |
| `align` | `align..=MAX.align_down_to(align)` |
| `size,align` | `align..=(MAX-size).align_down_to(align)` |
------
This is very WIP, and I'm not sure the approach I've taken here is the best one, but stage 1 tests pass locally; I believe this is in a good enough state to unleash this upon unsuspecting 3rd-party code, and see what breaks.
