This makes it possible to instruct libstd to never touch the signal
handler for `SIGPIPE`, which makes programs pipeable by default (e.g.
with `./your-program | head -n 1`) without `ErrorKind::BrokenPipe`
errors.
This avoids having to parse the dylibs to get all symbols and matches
the way the dynamic linker resolves symbols. Furthermore it fixes the
jit on Windows.
Add pointer masking convenience functions
This PR adds the following public API:
```rust
impl<T: ?Sized> *const T {
fn mask(self, mask: usize) -> *const T;
}
impl<T: ?Sized> *mut T {
fn mask(self, mask: usize) -> *const T;
}
// mod intrinsics
fn mask<T>(ptr: *const T, mask: usize) -> *const T
```
This is equivalent to `ptr.map_addr(|a| a & mask)` but also uses a cool llvm intrinsic.

Because `PassMode::Cast` is by far the largest variant, but is
relatively rare.
This requires making `PassMode` not impl `Copy`, and `Clone` is no
longer necessary. This causes lots of sigil adjusting, but nothing very
notable.
Cranelift 0.87 now supports lowering `fma` as a libcall on x86 [0].
With 0.88 enabling the native x86 instruction under the `has_fma` flag.
aarch64 and s390x already support this as a native instruction, so it's
nice that we emit it for those.
We can't lower the SIMD version using the `fma` instruction since the
lowering can fail if the x86 `has_fma` flag is not enabled. Cranelift
doesn't yet know how to fallback for these cases

Replace most uses of `pointer::offset` with `add` and `sub`
As PR title says, it replaces `pointer::offset` in compiler and standard library with `pointer::add` and `pointer::sub`. This generally makes code cleaner, easier to grasp and removes (or, well, hides) integer casts.
This is generally trivially correct, `.offset(-constant)` is just `.sub(constant)`, `.offset(usized as isize)` is just `.add(usized)`, etc. However in some cases we need to be careful with signs of things.

_split off from #100746_
This commit adds the following functions all of which have a signature
`pointer, usize -> pointer`:
- `<*mut T>::mask`
- `<*const T>::mask`
- `intrinsics::ptr_mask`
These functions are equivalent to `.map_addr(|a| a & mask)` but they
utilize `llvm.ptrmask` llvm intrinsic.
