This reworks the force-frame-pointer PR to explicitly only consider the
value of the flag if it is provided, and use a target default otherwise.
Something that was tried but not kept was renaming the flag to
`frame-pointer`, because for flag `frame-pointer=no`, there is no
guarante, that LLVM will elide *all* the frame pointers; oposite of what
the literal reading of the flag would suggest.
We apparently used to generate bad/incomplete debug info causing
debuggers not to find symbols of stack allocated variables. This was
somehow worked around by having frame pointers.
With the current codegen, this seems no longer necessary, so we can
remove the code that force-enables frame pointers whenever debug info
is requested.
Since certain situations, like profiling code profit from having frame
pointers, we add a -Cforce-frame-pointers flag to always enable frame
pointers.
Fixes#11906
move skolemized regions into global tcx
Experimental branch to move skolemized regions into global tcx. This is probably not what we want long term but may be convenient to unblock @sgrif in the short term.
I'd like to do a perf run, though the main concern I guess would be memory usage.

check that #[used] is used only on statics
this attribute has no effect on other items. This makes the implementation match what's described in the RFC.

Add more links in panic docs
Fixes#48695 by adding a link to `AssertUnwindSafe`. Also added some other links in the module's docs to make things clearer.
Make `Vec::new` a `const fn`
`RawVec::empty/_in` are a hack. They're there because `if size_of::<T> == 0 { !0 } else { 0 }` is not allowed in `const` yet. However, because `RawVec` is unstable, the `empty/empty_in` constructors can be removed when #49146 is done...
Bury Error::description()
Second attempt of #49536https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2230
The exact wording of the default implementation is still up in the air, but I think it's a detail that can be amended later.
