The first use case of this detection of regression for trimmed paths
computation, that is in the case of rustc, which should be computed only
in case of errors or warnings.
Our current user of this method is deeply nested, being a side effect
from `Display` formatting on lots of rustc types. So taking only the
caller to the error message is not enough - we should collect the
traceback instead.
Similar to `-Z dump-mir-graphviz`, this adds the option to write
HTML+CSS files that allow users to analyze the spans associated with MIR
elements (by individual statement, just terminator, or overall basic
block).
This PR was split out from PR #76004, and exposes an API for spanview
HTML+CSS files that is also used to analyze code regions chosen for
coverage instrumentation (in a follow-on PR).

Fix `-Z instrument-coverage` on MSVC
Found that `-C link-dead-code` (which was enabled automatically
under `-Z instrument-coverage`) was causing the linking error that
resulted in segmentation faults in coverage instrumented binaries. Link
dead code is now disabled under MSVC, allowing `-Z instrument-coverage`
to be enabled under MSVC for the first time.
More details are included in Issue #76038 .
Note this PR makes it possible to support `Z instrument-coverage` but
does not enable instrument coverage for MSVC in existing tests. It will be
enabled in another PR to follow this one (both PRs coming from original
PR #75828).

Fixes#75050
Previously, we would unconditionally suppress the panic hook during
proc-macro execution. This commit adds a new flag
-Z proc-macro-backtrace, which allows running the panic hook for
easier debugging.
