Add ThreadId for comparing threads
This adds the capability to store and compare threads with the current calling thread via a new struct, `std:🧵:ThreadId`. Addresses the need outlined in issue #21507.
This avoids the need to add any special checks to the existing thread structs and does not rely on the system to provide an identifier for a thread, since it seems that this approach is unreliable and undesirable. Instead, this simply uses a lazily-created, thread-local `usize` whose value is copied from a global atomic counter. The code should be simple enough that it should be as much reliable as the `#[thread_local]` attribute it uses (however much that is).
`ThreadId`s can be compared directly for equality and have copy semantics.

Working asmjs and wasm targets
This patch set results in a working standard library for the asmjs-unknown-emscripten and wasm32-unknown-emscripten targets. It is based on the work of @badboy and @rschulman.
It does a few things:
- Updates LLVM with the emscripten [fastcomp](https://github.com/rust-lang/llvm/pull/50) patches, which include the pnacl IR legalizer and the asm.js backend. This patch is thought not to have any significant effect on existing targets.
- Teaches rustbuild to correctly link C code with emscripten
- Updates gcc-rs to work correctly with emscripten
- Teaches rustbuild to run crate tests for emscripten with node
- Modifies Thread::new to return an error on emscripten, to facilitate debugging a common failure mode
- Modifies libtest to run in single-threaded mode for emscripten
- Ignores a host of tests that don't work yet, mostly dealing with threads and I/O
- Updates libc with wasm32 definitions (presently the same as asmjs)
- Adds a wasm32-unknown-emscripten target that feeds the output of LLVM's asmjs backend through emcc to generate wasm
Notes and caveats:
- This is only known to work with `--enable-rustbuild`.
- The wasm32 target can't be tested correctly yet because of issues in compiletest and limitations in node https://github.com/kripken/emscripten/issues/4542, but hello.rs does seem to work when run on node via the binaryen interpreter
- This requires an up to date installation of the emscripten sdk from its incoming branch
- Unwinding is very broken
- When enabling the emscripten targets jemalloc is disabled for all targets, which results in test failures for the host
Next steps are to fix the jemalloc issue, start building the two emscripten targets on the auto builders, then start producing nightlies.

upgrade thread_local! invocation syntax
Allows declaring multiple statics in one macro invocation, and supports attaching attributes to the generated items. In particular, `#![forbid(missing_docs, unused)]` is now tenable on a crate/module containing thread locals.
For an example see [here](https://is.gd/aVFZZF). This change is fully backwards compatible as far as I can tell.

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1513] which allows applications to
alter the behavior of panics at compile time. A new compiler flag, `-C panic`,
is added and accepts the values `unwind` or `panic`, with the default being
`unwind`. This model affects how code is generated for the local crate, skipping
generation of landing pads with `-C panic=abort`.
[RFC 1513]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1513-less-unwinding.md
Panic implementations are then provided by crates tagged with
`#![panic_runtime]` and lazily required by crates with
`#![needs_panic_runtime]`. The panic strategy (`-C panic` value) of the panic
runtime must match the final product, and if the panic strategy is not `abort`
then the entire DAG must have the same panic strategy.
With the `-C panic=abort` strategy, users can expect a stable method to disable
generation of landing pads, improving optimization in niche scenarios,
decreasing compile time, and decreasing output binary size. With the `-C
panic=unwind` strategy users can expect the existing ability to isolate failure
in Rust code from the outside world.
Organizationally, this commit dismantles the `sys_common::unwind` module in
favor of some bits moving part of it to `libpanic_unwind` and the rest into the
`panicking` module in libstd. The custom panic runtime support is pretty similar
to the custom allocator support with the only major difference being how the
panic runtime is injected (takes the `-C panic` flag into account).
Previously, the thread name (&str) was converted to a CString in the
new thread, but outside unwind::try, causing a panic to continue into FFI.
This patch changes that behaviour, so that the panic instead happens
in the parent thread (where panic infrastructure is properly set up),
not the new thread.
This could potentially be a breaking change for architectures who don't
support thread names.

Removes all unstable and deprecated APIs prior to the 1.8 release. All APIs that
are deprecated in the 1.8 release are sticking around for the rest of this
cycle.
Some notable changes are:
* The `dynamic_lib` module was moved into `rustc_back` as the compiler still
relies on a few bits and pieces.
* The `DebugTuple` formatter now special-cases an empty struct name with only
one field to append a trailing comma.
This commit is the result of the FCPs ending for the 1.8 release cycle for both
the libs and the lang suteams. The full list of changes are:
Stabilized
* `braced_empty_structs`
* `augmented_assignments`
* `str::encode_utf16` - renamed from `utf16_units`
* `str::EncodeUtf16` - renamed from `Utf16Units`
* `Ref::map`
* `RefMut::map`
* `ptr::drop_in_place`
* `time::Instant`
* `time::SystemTime`
* `{Instant,SystemTime}::now`
* `{Instant,SystemTime}::duration_since` - renamed from `duration_from_earlier`
* `{Instant,SystemTime}::elapsed`
* Various `Add`/`Sub` impls for `Time` and `SystemTime`
* `SystemTimeError`
* `SystemTimeError::duration`
* Various impls for `SystemTimeError`
* `UNIX_EPOCH`
* `ops::{Add,Sub,Mul,Div,Rem,BitAnd,BitOr,BitXor,Shl,Shr}Assign`

* Scoped TLS (the `scoped_thread_local!` macro)
* `Ref::filter_map`
* `RefMut::filter_map`
* `RwLockReadGuard::map`
* `RwLockWriteGuard::map`
* `Condvar::wait_timeout_with`

This test has been deadlocking and causing problems on the bots basically since
its inception. Some memory safety issues were fixed in 987dc84b, but the
deadlocks remained afterwards unfortunately.
After some investigation, I've concluded that this is just a situation where OSX
is not guaranteed to run destructors. The fix in 987dc84b observed that OSX was
rewriting the backing TLS memory to its initial state during destruction while
we weren't looking, and this would have the effect of canceling the destructors
of any other initialized TLS slots.
While very difficult to pin down, this is basically what I assume is happening
here, so there doesn't seem to really be anythig we can do to ensure the test
robustly passes on OSX, so just ignore it for now.
This transitions the standard library's `thread_local!` macro to use the
freshly-added and gated `#[cfg(target_thread_local)]` attribute. This greatly
simplifies the `#[cfg]` logic in play here, but requires that the standard
library expose both the OS and ELF TLS implementation modules as unstable
implementation details.
The implementation details were shuffled around a bit but end up generally
compiling to the same thing.
Closes#26581 (this supersedes the need for the option)
Closes#27057 (this also starts ignoring the option)
