This puts every function and data object in their own section. This
allows the linker to omit unused functions and data objects with
--gc-sections.
On linux this shrinks a hello world binary without optimizations
(neither sysroot nor binary) from 17MB to 13MB. It shrinks a hello world
binary with only sysroot optimizations from 14MB to 13MB. For comparison
cg_llvm produces a 3.5MB debug mode hello world binary with an optimized
sysroot. Cg_clif produces a 10MB debug mode hello world binary without
an optimized sysroot.
Previously foreign statics would actually cause a local static to be
defined and exported. This issue was found because std::env::vars() was
found to return no env vars despite many being defined. This was caused
by libstd importing environ as foreign static. The accidental definition
of environ caused libstd to read a null pointer which was interpreted as
there being no environment variables at all.
Also fix tests. STDOUT is not defined by libc. The correct name is stdout.
This previously worked as STDOUT was incorrectly defined as null pointer
during codegen.
The field is also renamed from `ident` to `name. In most cases,
we don't actually need the `Span`. A new `ident` method is added
to `VariantDef` and `FieldDef`, which constructs the full `Ident`
using `tcx.def_ident_span()`. This method is used in the cases
where we actually need an `Ident`.
This makes incremental compilation properly track changes
to the `Span`, without all of the invalidations caused by storing
a `Span` directly via an `Ident`.
Mark drop calls in landing pads `cold` instead of `noinline`
Now that deferred inlining has been disabled in LLVM (#92110), this shouldn't cause catastrophic size blowup.
I confirmed that the test cases from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/41696#issuecomment-298696944 still compile quickly (<1s) after this change. ~Although note that I wasn't able to reproduce the original issue using a recent rustc/llvm with deferred inlining enabled, so those tests may no longer be representative. I was also unable to create a modified test case that reproduced the original issue.~ (edit: I reproduced it on CI by accident--the first commit timed out on the LLVM 12 builder, because I forgot to make it conditional on LLVM version)

Remove `SymbolStr`
This was originally proposed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/74554#discussion_r466203544. As well as removing the icky `SymbolStr` type, it allows the removal of a lot of `&` and `*` occurrences.
Best reviewed one commit at a time.

Use `OutputFilenames` to generate output file for `-Zllvm-time-trace`
The resulting profile will include the crate name and will be stored in
the `--out-dir` directory.
This implementation makes it convenient to use LLVM time trace together
with cargo, in the contrast to the previous implementation which would
overwrite profiles or store them in `.cargo/registry/..`.

They are also removed from the prelude as per the decision in
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87228.
stdarch and compiler-builtins are updated to work with the new, stable
asm! and global_asm! macros.
Remove the reg_thumb register class for asm! on ARM
Also restricts r8-r14 from being used on Thumb1 targets as per #90736.

Use object crate for .rustc metadata generation
We already use the object crate for generating uncompressed .rmeta
metadata object files. This switches the generation of compressed
.rustc object files to use the object crate as well. These have
slightly different requirements in that .rmeta should be completely
excluded from any final compilation artifacts, while .rustc should
be part of shared objects, but not loaded into memory.
The primary motivation for this change is #90326: In LLVM 14, the
current way of setting section flags (and in particular, preventing
the setting of SHF_ALLOC) will no longer work. There are other ways
we could work around this, but switching to the object crate seems
like the most elegant, as we already use it for .rmeta, and as it
makes this independent of the codegen backend. In particular, we
don't need separate handling in codegen_llvm and codegen_gcc.
codegen_cranelift should be able to reuse the implementation as
well, though I have omitted that here, as it is not based on
codegen_ssa.
This change mostly extracts the existing code for .rmeta handling
to allow using it for .rustc as well, and adjusts the codegen
infrastructure to handle the metadata object file separately: We
no longer create a backend-specific module for it, and directly
produce the compiled module instead.
This does not `fix` #90326 by itself yet, as .llvmbc will need to be
handled separately.
