compile-time evaluation: detect writes through immutable pointers
This has two motivations:
- it unblocks https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/116745 (and therefore takes a big step towards `const_mut_refs` stabilization), because we can now detect if the memory that we find in `const` can be interned as "immutable"
- it would detect the UB that was uncovered in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/117905, which was caused by accidental stabilization of `copy` functions in `const` that can only be called with UB
When UB is detected, we emit a future-compat warn-by-default lint. This is not a breaking change, so completely in line with [the const-UB RFC](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/3016-const-ub.html), meaning we don't need t-lang FCP here. I made the lint immediately show up for dependencies since it is nearly impossible to even trigger this lint without `const_mut_refs` -- the accidentally stabilized `copy` functions are the only way this can happen, so the crates that popped up in #117905 are the only causes of such UB (in the code that crater covers), and the three cases of UB that we know about have all been fixed in their respective crates already.
The way this is implemented is by making use of the fact that our interpreter is already generic over the notion of provenance. For CTFE we now use the new `CtfeProvenance` type which is conceptually an `AllocId` plus a boolean `immutable` flag (but packed for a more efficient representation). This means we can mark a pointer as immutable when it is created as a shared reference. The flag will be propagated to all pointers derived from this one. We can then check the immutable flag on each write to reject writes through immutable pointers.
I just hope perf works out.
Currently, `Handler::fatal` returns `FatalError`. But `Session::fatal`
returns `!`, because it calls `Handler::fatal` and then calls `raise` on
the result. This inconsistency is unfortunate.
This commit changes `Handler::fatal` to do the `raise` itself, changing
its return type to `!`. This is safe because there are only two calls to
`Handler::fatal`, one in `rustc_session` and one in
`rustc_codegen_cranelift`, and they both call `raise` on the result.
`HandlerInner::fatal` still returns `FatalError`, so I renamed it
`fatal_no_raise` to emphasise the return type difference.
Subtree sync for rustc_codegen_cranelift
The main highlights this time are implementing a bunch of new vendor intrinsics and fixing some existing ones. And fixing polymorphization for coroutines.

There were three issues previously:
* The self argument was pinned, despite Iterator::next taking an
unpinned mutable reference.
* A resume argument was passed, despite Iterator::next not having one.
* The return value was CoroutineState<Item, ()> rather than Option<Item>
While these things just so happened to work with the LLVM backend,
cg_clif does much stricter checks when trying to assign a value to a
place. In addition it can't handle the mismatch between the amount of
arguments specified by the FnAbi and the FnSig.
They've been deprecated for four years.
This commit includes the following changes.
- It eliminates the `rustc_plugin_impl` crate.
- It changes the language used for lints in
`compiler/rustc_driver_impl/src/lib.rs` and
`compiler/rustc_lint/src/context.rs`. External lints are now called
"loaded" lints, rather than "plugins" to avoid confusion with the old
plugins. This only has a tiny effect on the output of `-W help`.
- E0457 and E0498 are no longer used.
- E0463 is narrowed, now only relating to unfound crates, not plugins.
- The `plugin` feature was moved from "active" to "removed".
- It removes the entire plugins chapter from the unstable book.
- It removes quite a few tests, mostly all of those in
`tests/ui-fulldeps/plugin/`.
Closes#29597.
share some track_caller logic between interpret and codegen
Also move the code that implements the track_caller intrinsics out of the core interpreter engine -- it's just a helper creating a const-allocation, doesn't need to be part of the interpreter core.
Distribute cg_clif as rustup component on the nightly channel
This makes it possible to use cg_clif using:
```bash
$ rustup component add rustc-codegen-cranelift-preview --toolchain nightly
$ RUSTFLAGS="-Zcodegen-backend=cranelift" cargo +nightly build
```

Bump stdarch submodule and remove special handling for LLVM intrinsics that are no longer needed
Bumps stdarch to pull https://github.com/rust-lang/stdarch/pull/1477, which reimplemented some functions with portable SIMD intrinsics instead of arch specific LLVM intrinsics.
Handling of those LLVM intrinsics is removed from cranelift codegen and miri.
cc `@RalfJung` `@bjorn3`
This ensures that cg_clif can be built for targets that aren't natively
supported by Cranelift. It will not be possible to compile for the host
in this case, but cross-compilation will still be possible.
We won't distribute cg_clif as rustup component for any targets that
aren't natively supported by Cranelift, but will still build it if
codegen-backends lists "cranelift".
bootstrap major change detection implementation
The use of `changelog-seen` and `bootstrap/CHANGELOG.md` has not been functional in any way for many years. We often do major/breaking changes but never update the changelog file or the `changelog-seen`. This is an alternative method for tracking major or breaking changes and informing developers when such changes occur.
Example output when bootstrap detects a major change:
Prototype using const generic for simd_shuffle IDX array
cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/85229
r? `@workingjubilee` on the design
TLDR: there is now a `fn simd_shuffle_generic<T, U, const IDX: &'static [u32]>(x: T, y: T) -> U;` intrinsic that allows replacing
```rust
simd_shuffle(a, b, const { stuff })
```
with
```rust
simd_shuffle_generic::<_, _, {&stuff}>(a, b)
```
which makes the compiler implementations much simpler, if we manage to at some point eliminate `simd_shuffle`.
There are some issues with this today though (can't do math without bubbling it up in the generic arguments). With this change, we can start porting the simple cases and get better data on the others.
