Remove the install prefix from the rpath set when using -Crpath
It was broken anyway for rustup installs and nobody seems to have noticed.

Unify duplicate linker_and_flavor methods in rustc_codegen_{cranelift,ssa}.
The two methods were exactly the same so this removes the cranelift copy. This will help make sure both they don't get out of sync.
Driver improvements
This PR contains a couple of cleanups for the driver and a few small improvements for the custom codegen backend interface. It also implements `--version` and `-Cpasses=list` support for custom codegen backends.
- Combine all native library arguments together, to simplify potential support for library deduplication and similar things
- Split arguments into order-independent and order-dependent, to define more precisely what (pre,post,late)-link-args mean
Tweak wasm_base target spec to indicate linker is not GNU and update linker inferring logic for wasm-ld.
Reported via [Zulip](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/131828-t-compiler/topic/wasi.20linker.20unknown.20argument.3A.20--as-needed): we try passing `--as-needed` to the linker if it's GNU ld which `wasm-ld` is not. Usually this isn't an issue for wasm as we would use the WasmLd linker driver but because the linker in question (`wasm32-unknown-wasi-wasm-ld`) ended with `-ld` our linker inferring [logic](f64503eb55/compiler/rustc_codegen_ssa/src/back/link.rs (L957-L1040)) used the `GccLinker` implementations. (UPD: The linker inferring logic actually didn't apply in this case because the linker is actually invoked through gcc in the reported issue. But it's still worth updating the logic I think.)
This change then has 2 parts:
1. Update wasm_base target spec to indicate `linker_is_gnu: false` plus a few additions of `target.is_like_wasm` to handle flags `wasm-ld` does in fact support.
2. Improve the linker detection logic to properly determine the correct flavor of wasm linker we're using when we can.
We need to add the new `target.is_like_wasm` branches to handle the case where the "linker" used could be something like clang which would then under the hood call wasm-ld.
Preserve metadata w/ Solaris-like linkers.
#84468 moved the `-zignore` linker flag from the `gc_sections` method to `add_as_needed` which is more accurate but Solaris-style linkers will also end up removing an unreferenced ELF sections [1]. This had the unfortunate side effect of causing the `.rustc` section (which has the metada) to be removed which could cause issues when trying to link against the resulting crates or use proc macros.
Since the `-zignore` is positional, we fix this by moving the metadata objects to before the flag.
[1] Specifically a section is considered unreferenced if:
* The section is allocatable
* No other sections bind to (relocate) to this section
* The section provides no global symbols

Partial support for raw-dylib linkage
First cut of functionality for issue #58713: add support for `#[link(kind = "raw-dylib")]` on `extern` blocks in lib crates compiled to .rlib files. Does not yet support `#[link_name]` attributes on functions, or the `#[link_ordinal]` attribute, or `#[link(kind = "raw-dylib")]` on `extern` blocks in bin crates; I intend to publish subsequent PRs to fill those gaps. It's also not yet clear whether this works for functions in `extern "stdcall"` blocks; I also intend to investigate that shortly and make any necessary changes as a follow-on PR.
This implementation calls out to an LLVM function to construct the actual `.idata` sections as temporary `.lib` files on disk and then links those into the generated .rlib.
BPF target support
This adds `bpfel-unknown-none` and `bpfeb-unknown-none`, two new no_std targets that generate little and big endian BPF. The approach taken is very similar to the cuda target, where `TargetOptions::obj_is_bitcode` is enabled and code generation is done by the linker.
I added the targets to `dist-various-2`. There are [some tests](https://github.com/alessandrod/bpf-linker/tree/main/tests/assembly) in bpf-linker and I'm planning to add more. Those are currently not ran as part of rust CI.
Remove special handling of `box_free` from `LocalAnalyzer`
The special casing of `box_free` predates the use of dominators in
analyzer. It is no longer necessary now that analyzer verifies that
the first assignment dominates all uses.
This does not yet support #[link_name] attributes on functions, the #[link_ordinal]
attribute, #[link(kind = "raw-dylib")] on extern blocks in bin crates, or
stdcall functions on 32-bit x86.
rustc: Store metadata-in-rlibs in object files
This commit updates how rustc compiler metadata is stored in rlibs.
Previously metadata was stored as a raw file that has the same format as
`--emit metadata`. After this commit, however, the metadata is encoded
into a small object file which has one section which is the contents of
the metadata.
The motivation for this commit is to fix a common case where #83730
arises. The problem is that when rustc crates a `dylib` crate type it
needs to include entire rlib files into the dylib, so it passes
`--whole-archive` (or the equivalent) to the linker. The problem with
this, though, is that the linker will attempt to read all files in the
archive. If the metadata file were left as-is (today) then the linker
would generate an error saying it can't read the file. The previous
solution was to alter the rlib just before linking, creating a new
archive in a temporary directory which has the metadata file removed.
This problem from before this commit is now removed if the metadata file
is stored in an object file that the linker can read. The only caveat we
have to take care of is to ensure that the linker never actually
includes the contents of the object file into the final output. We apply
similar tricks as the `.llvmbc` bytecode sections to do this.
This involved changing the metadata loading code a bit, namely updating
some of the LLVM C APIs used to use non-deprecated ones and fiddling
with the lifetimes a bit to get everything to work out. Otherwise though
this isn't intended to be a functional change really, only that metadata
is stored differently in archives now.
This should end up fixing #83730 because by default dylibs will no
longer have their rlib dependencies "altered" meaning that
split-debuginfo will continue to have valid paths pointing at the
original rlibs. (note that we still "alter" rlibs if LTO is enabled to
remove Rust object files and we also "alter" for the #[link(cfg)]
feature, but that's rarely used).

For extern providers, both provide and provide_extern are called.
wasm_import_module_map is already provided in provide, so it doesn't
need to be provided in provide_extern.
Reland - Report coverage `0` of dead blocks
Fixes: #84018
With `-Z instrument-coverage`, coverage reporting of dead blocks
(for example, blocks dropped because a conditional branch is dropped,
based on const evaluation) is now supported.
Note, this PR relands an earlier, reverted PR that failed when compiling
generators. The prior issues with generators has been resolved and a new
test was added to prevent future regressions.
Check out the resulting changes to test coverage of dead blocks in the
test coverage reports in this PR.

Remove unused feature gates
The first commit removes a usage of a feature gate, but I don't expect it to be controversial as the feature gate was only used to workaround a limitation of rust in the past. (closures never being `Clone`)
The second commit uses `#[allow_internal_unstable]` to avoid leaking the `trusted_step` feature gate usage from inside the index newtype macro. It didn't work for the `min_specialization` feature gate though.
The third commit removes (almost) all feature gates from the compiler that weren't used anyway.
Previously, we would generate a single struct with the layout of the
dataful variant plus an extra field whose name contained the value of
the niche (this would only really work for things like `Option<&_>`
where we can determine that the `None` case maps to `0` but for enums
that have multiple tag only variants, this doesn't work).
Now, we generate a union of two structs, one which is the layout of the
dataful variant and one which just has a way of reading the
discriminant. We also generate an enum which maps the discriminant value
to the tag only variants.
We also encode information about the range of values which correspond to
the dataful variant in the type name and then use natvis to determine
which union field we should display to the user.
As a result of this change, all niche-layout enums render correctly in
WinDbg and Visual Studio!

Update cc
Recent commits have improved `cc`'s finding of MSVC tools on Windows. In particular it should help to address these issues: #83043 and #43468
Update list of allowed aarch64 features
I recently added these features to std_detect for aarch64 linux, pending [review](https://github.com/rust-lang/stdarch/pull/1146).
I have commented any features not supported by LLVM 9, the current minimum version for Rust. Some (PAuth at least) were renamed between 9 & 12 and I've left them disabled. TME, however, is not in LLVM 9 but I've left it enabled.
See https://github.com/rust-lang/stdarch/issues/993
