rfc3052 followup: Remove authors field from Cargo manifests
Since RFC 3052 soft deprecated the authors field, hiding it from
crates.io, docs.rs, and making Cargo not add it by default, and it is
not generally up to date/useful information for contributors, we may as well
remove it from crates in this repo.

Use small code model for UEFI targets
* Since the code model only applies to the code and not the data and the code model
only applies to functions you call through using `call`, `jmp` and data with `lea`, etc…
If you are calling functions using the function pointers from the UEFI structures the code
model does not apply in that case. It’s just related to the address space size of your own binary.
Since UEFI (uefi is all relocatable) uses relocatable PEs (relocatable code does not care about the
code model) so, we use the small code model here.
* Since applications don't usually take gigabytes of memory, setting the
target to use the small code model should result in better codegen (comparable
with majority of other targets).
Large code models are also known for generating horrible code, for
example 16 bytes of code to load a single 8-byte value.

Do not allow JSON targets to set is-builtin: true
Note that this will affect (and make builds fail for) all of the projects out there that have target files invalid in this way. Crater, however, does not really cover these kinds of the codebases, so it is quite difficult to measure the impact. That said, the target files invalid in this way can start causing build failures each time LLVM is upgraded, anyway, so it is probably a good opportunity to disallow this property, entirely.
Another approach considered was to simply not parse this field anymore, which would avoid making the builds explicitly fail, but it wasn't clear to me if `is-builtin` was always set unintentionally… In case this was the case, I'd expect people to file a feature request stating specifically for what purpose they were using `is-builtin`.

* Use the LLVM default code model for the architecture for the
x86_64-unknown-uefi targets. For reference small is the default
code model on x86 in LLVM: <7de2173c2a/llvm/lib/Target/X86/X86TargetMachine.cpp (L204)>
* Remove the comments too as they are not UEFI-specific and applies
to pretty much any target. I added them before as I was explicitily
setting the code model to small.

target abi
Implement cfg(target_abi) (RFC 2992)
Add an `abi` field to `TargetOptions`, defaulting to "". Support using
`cfg(target_abi = "...")` for conditional compilation on that field.
Gated by `feature(cfg_target_abi)`.
Add a test for `target_abi`, and a test for the feature gate.

Update targets to use `target_abi`
All eabi targets have `target_abi = "eabi".`
All eabihf targets have `target_abi = "eabihf"`.
`armv6_unknown_freebsd` and `armv7_unknown_freebsd` have `target_abi = "eabihf"`.
All abi64 targets have `target_abi = "abi64"`.
All ilp32 targets have `target_abi = "ilp32"`.

once `cfg_target_abi` becomes stable. (All of them are tier 3 targets.)
Add a test for `target_abi` in `--print cfg`.
Add clobber-only register classes for asm!
These are needed to properly express a function call ABI using a clobber
list, even though we don't support passing actual values into/out of

This does not add an abi to any existing target.
It makes very little sense to maintain denylists of ABIs when, as far as
non-generic ABIs are concerned, targets usually only support a small
subset of the available ABIs.
This has historically been a cause of bugs such as us allowing use of
the platform-specific ABIs on x86 targets – these in turn would cause
LLVM errors or assertions to fire.
Fixes#57182

This PR adds ability for the target specifications to specify frame
pointer emission type that's not just “always” or “whatever cg decides”.
In particular there's a new mode that allows omission of the frame
pointer for leaf functions (those that don't call any other functions).
We then set this new mode for Aarch64-based Apple targets.
Fixes#86196
Emit warnings for unused fields in custom targets.
Add a warning which lists any fields in a custom target `json` file that aren't used. Currently unrecognized fields are ignored so, for example, a typo in the `json` will silently produce a target which isn't the one intended.
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.
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.
wasm: Make simd types passed via indirection again
This commit updates wasm target specs to use `simd_types_indirect: true`
again. Long ago this was added since wasm simd types were always
translated to `v128` under-the-hood in LLVM, meaning that it didn't
matter whether that target feature was enabled or not. Now, however,
`v128` is conditionally used in codegen depending on target features
enabled, meaning that it's possible to get linker errors about different
signatures in code that correctly uses simd types. The fix is the same
as for all other platforms, which is to pass the type indirectly.
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.

Turn off frame pointer elimination on all Apple platforms.
This ends up disabling frame pointer elimination on aarch64_apple_darwin
which matches what clang does by default along with the
aarch64_apple_ios and x86_64_apple_darwin targets.
Further, the Apple docs "Writing ARM64 Code for Apple Platforms" has a section
called "Respect the Purpose of Specific CPU Registers" which
specifically calls out the frame pointer register (x29):
The frame pointer register (x29) must always address a valid frame
record. Some functions — such as leaf functions or tail calls — may
opt not to create an entry in this list As a result, stack traces
are always meaningful, even without debug information.
Other platforms are updated to not override the default.

CTFE core engine allocation & memory API improvemenets
This is a first step towards https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/841.
- make `Allocation` API offset-based (no more making up `Pointer`s just to access an `Allocation`)
- make `Memory` API higher-level (combine checking for access and getting access into one operation)
The Miri-side PR is at https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/pull/1804.

Only pass --[no-]gc-sections if linker is GNU ld.
Fixes a regression from #84468 where linking now fails with solaris linkers. LinkerFlavor::Gcc does not always mean GNU ld specifically. And in the case of at least the solaris ld in illumos, that flag is unrecognized and will cause the linking step to fail.
Even though removing the `is_like_solaris` branch from `gc_sections` in #84468 made sense as `-z ignore/record` are more analogous to the `--[no-]-as-needed` flags, it inadvertently caused solaris linkers to be passed the `--gc-sections` flag. So let's just change it to be more explicit about when we pass those flags.
Fix unused attributes on macro_rules.
The `unused_attributes` lint wasn't firing on attributes of `macro_rules` definitions. The consequence is that many attributes are silently ignored on `macro_rules`. The reason is that `unused_attributes` is a late-lint pass, and only has access to the HIR, which does not have macro_rules definitions.
My solution here is to change `non_exported_macro_attrs` to be `macro_attrs` (a list of all attributes used for `macro_rules`, instead of just those for `macro_export`), and then to check this list in the `unused_attributes` lint. There are a number of alternate approaches, but this seemed the most reliable and least invasive. I am open to completely different approaches, though.
One concern is that I don't fully understand the implications of extending `non_exported_macro_attrs` to include non-exported macros. That list was originally added in #62042 to handle stability attributes, so I suspect it was just an optimization since that was all that was needed. It was later extended to be included in SVH in #83901. #80641 also added a use to check for `invalid` attributes, which seems a little odd to me (it didn't validate non-exported macros, and seems highly specific).
Overall, there doesn't seem to be a clear story of when `unused_attributes` should be used versus an error like E0518. I considered alternatively using an "allow list" of built-in attributes that can be used on macro_rules (allow, warn, deny, forbid, cfg, cfg_attr, macro_export, deprecated, doc), but I feel like that could be a pain to maintain.
Some built-in attributes already present hard-errors when used with macro_rules. These are each hard-coded in various places:
- `derive`
- `test` and `bench`
- `proc_macro` and `proc_macro_derive`
- `inline`
- `global_allocator`
The primary motivation is that I sometimes see people use `#[macro_use]` in front of `macro_rules`, which indicates there is some confusion out there (evident that there was even a case of it in rustc).
