8f803c2026 Remove "powerpc64le" and "mipsel" target_arch
Currently the `mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu` target doesn't actually set the
`target_arch` value to `mipsel` but it rather uses `mips`. Alternatively the
`powerpc64le` target does indeed set the `target_arch` as `powerpc64le`,
causing a bit of inconsistency between theset two.

As these are just the same instance of one instruction set, let's use
`target_endian` to switch between them and only set the `target_arch` as one
value. This should cut down on the number of `#[cfg]` annotations necessary and
all around be a little more ergonomic.

303892ee15 Auto merge of #30448 - alexcrichton:llvmup, r=nikomatsakis
These commits perform a few high-level changes with the goal of enabling i686 MSVC unwinding:

* LLVM is upgraded to pick up the new exception handling instructions and intrinsics for MSVC. This puts us somewhere along the 3.8 branch, but we should still be compatible with LLVM 3.7 for non-MSVC targets.
* All unwinding for MSVC targets (both 32 and 64-bit) are implemented in terms of this new LLVM support. I would like to also extend this to Windows GNU targets to drop the runtime dependencies we have on MinGW, but I'd like to land this first.
* Some tests were fixed up for i686 MSVC here and there where necessary. The full test suite should be passing now for that target.

In terms of landing this I plan to have this go through first, then verify that i686 MSVC works, then I'll enable `make check` on the bots for that target instead of just `make` as-is today.

Closes #25869

3e9589c0f4 trans: Reimplement unwinding on MSVC
This commit transitions the compiler to using the new exception handling
instructions in LLVM for implementing unwinding for MSVC. This affects both 32
and 64-bit MSVC as they're both now using SEH-based strategies. In terms of
standard library support, lots more details about how SEH unwinding is
implemented can be found in the commits.

In terms of trans, this change necessitated a few modifications:

* Branches were added to detect when the old landingpad instruction is used or
  the new cleanuppad instruction is used to `trans::cleanup`.
* The return value from `cleanuppad` is not stored in an `alloca` (because it
  cannot be).
* Each block in trans now has an `Option<LandingPad>` instead of `is_lpad: bool`
  for indicating whether it's in a landing pad or not. The new exception
  handling intrinsics require that on MSVC each `call` inside of a landing pad
  is annotated with which landing pad that it's in. This change to the basic
  block means that whenever a `call` or `invoke` instruction is generated we
  know whether to annotate it as part of a cleanuppad or not.
* Lots of modifications were made to the instruction builders to construct the
  new instructions as well as pass the tagging information for the call/invoke
  instructions.
* The translation of the `try` intrinsics for MSVC has been overhauled to use
  the new `catchpad` instruction. The filter function is now also a
  rustc-generated function instead of a purely libstd-defined function. The
  libstd definition still exists, it just has a stable ABI across architectures
  and leaves some of the really weird implementation details to the compiler
  (e.g. the `localescape` and `localrecover` intrinsics).

d1cace17af trans: Upgrade LLVM
This brings some routine upgrades to the bundled LLVM that we're using, the most
notable of which is a bug fix to the way we handle range asserts when loading
the discriminant of an enum. This fix ended up being very similar to f9d4149c
where we basically can't have a range assert when loading a discriminant due to
filling drop, and appropriate flags were added to communicate this to
`trans::adt`.

fdf65e719c Fix truncated drop pattern on 32bit -> 64bit cross compilation
When cross compiling for a target that has a larger usize type than the
host system, we use a truncated value to mark data as dropped,
eventually leading to drop calls on already dropped data. To properly
handle this, the drop pattern needs to be of type u64.

Since C_integral truncates its given value to the requested size anyway,
we can also drop the function that chose between the u32 and u64 values,
and always use the u64 constant.

Fixes #31139

862911df9a Implement the translation item collector.
The purpose of the translation item collector is to find all monomorphic instances of functions, methods and statics that need to be translated into LLVM IR in order to compile the current crate.
So far these instances have been discovered lazily during the trans path. For incremental compilation we want to know the set of these instances in advance, and that is what the trans::collect module provides.
In the future, incremental and regular translation will be driven by the collector implemented here.

8f36038490 Auto merge of #31087 - nikomatsakis:incr-comp-fulfillment-cache, r=arielb1
This is a fix for #30741. It simplifies dep-graph tracking for trait matching. I was experimenting with having a greater resolution here, but decided to pare back to just have one dep node for "trait resolutions on trait `Foo`", which means that adding an impl to the trait `Foo` will invalidate all fns that had to do any trait matching at all on `Foo`. This seems like a reasonable starting place.

Independently, I realized I had neglected to record a dependency from trans on typeck -- this is obviously needed, since trans consumes a bunch of data structures that typeck produces (but which are not currently individually tracked) -- and because trans assumes that typeck has been done. Eventually those are going to go away and be replaced with MIR, which will be tracked, so this edge would presumably be derived automatically then, but it's an obvious enough thing to want for now.

r? @arielb1

cc @michaelwoerister -- this might indirectly fix the problem you observed with the trans cache, though it'd be nice to try and craft an independent test case for that.

The only way to get a value for a zero-sized type is `undef`, so
there's really no point in actually having a return type other than
void for such types. Also, while the comment in return_type_is_void
mentioned something about aiding C ABI support, @eddyb correctly
pointed out on IRC that there is no such thing as a zero-sized type in
C. And even with clang, which allows empty structs, those get
translated as void return types as well.

e51de045ef Rollup merge of #30851 - jonas-schievink:unneeded-dropflags, r=pnkfelix
Apparently we allocate and maintain non-working dropflag hints since June... In anticipation of a working implementation of on-stack drop flag hints, let's not spend even more time on types that don't even need to be dropped.

```rust
fn main() {
    let (i,j,k,l) = (0,0,0,0);
}
```
used to translate to (unoptimized only, of course):
```llvm
define internal void @_ZN4main20ha8deb085c47920d8eaaE() unnamed_addr #0 {
entry-block:
  %dropflag_hint_10 = alloca i8
  %dropflag_hint_11 = alloca i8
  %dropflag_hint_12 = alloca i8
  %dropflag_hint_13 = alloca i8
  %const = alloca { i32, i32, i32, i32 }
  %i = alloca i32
  %j = alloca i32
  %k = alloca i32
  %l = alloca i32
  store i8 61, i8* %dropflag_hint_10
  store i8 61, i8* %dropflag_hint_11
  store i8 61, i8* %dropflag_hint_12
  store i8 61, i8* %dropflag_hint_13
  %0 = bitcast { i32, i32, i32, i32 }* %const to i8*
  call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i64(i8* %0, i8* bitcast ({ i32, i32, i32, i32 }* @const2752 to i8*), i64 16, i32 4, i1 false)
  %1 = getelementptr inbounds { i32, i32, i32, i32 }, { i32, i32, i32, i32 }* %const, i32 0, i32 0
  %2 = load i32, i32* %1, align 4
  store i32 %2, i32* %i, align 4
  %3 = getelementptr inbounds { i32, i32, i32, i32 }, { i32, i32, i32, i32 }* %const, i32 0, i32 1
  %4 = load i32, i32* %3, align 4
  store i32 %4, i32* %j, align 4
  %5 = getelementptr inbounds { i32, i32, i32, i32 }, { i32, i32, i32, i32 }* %const, i32 0, i32 2
  %6 = load i32, i32* %5, align 4
  store i32 %6, i32* %k, align 4
  %7 = getelementptr inbounds { i32, i32, i32, i32 }, { i32, i32, i32, i32 }* %const, i32 0, i32 3
  %8 = load i32, i32* %7, align 4
  store i32 %8, i32* %l, align 4
  ret void
}
```

Now it gives:
```llvm

  %1 = getelementptr inbounds { i32, i32, i32, i32 }, { i32, i32, i32, i32 }* %const, i32 0, i32 0

Let's hope I didn't break anything!

decc286757 add doc for new fn alloc_ty_init.
(Note that it might be a good idea to replace *all* calls of
`alloc_ty` with calls to `alloc_ty_init`, to encourage programmers to
consider the appropriate value for the `init` flag when creating
temporary values.)

7706e2333e revise lifetime handling for alloca's that are initialized as "dropped."
(This can/should be revisited when drop flags are stored out of band.)

8168765d43 Factored out private routine for emitting LLVM lifetime intrinsic calls.
(The reason this is not factored as far as possible because a
subsequent commit is going to need to do construction without having
access to a `cx`.)

f251ff4081 bug fixes for issues 30018 and 30822.
includes bugfixes pointed out during review:

 * Only `call_lifetime_start` for an alloca if the function entry does
   not itself initialize it to "dropped."

 * Remove `schedule_lifetime_end` after writing an *element* into a
   borrowed slice. (As explained by [dotdash][irc], "the lifetime end
   that is being removed was for an element in the slice, which is not
   an alloca of its own and has no lifetime start of its own")

965b0bfefe Issue 30530: initialize allocas for Datum::to_lvalue_datum_in_scope.
In particular, bring back the `zero` flag for `lvalue_scratch_datum`,
which controls whether the alloca's created immediately at function
start are uninitialized at that point or have their embedded
drop-flags initialized to "dropped".

Then made `to_lvalue_datum_in_scope` pass "dropped" as `zero` flag.

Fixes #30772

We used to have a untested special case which didn’t really work anyway, because of lacking casts. This PR removes the case in question.

2f86c1605c Change destination accessor to return references
Previously it was returning a value, mostly for the two reasons:

* Cloning Lvalue is very cheap most of the time (i.e. when Lvalue is not a Projection);
* There’s users who want &mut lvalue and there’s users who want &lvalue. Returning a value allows
  to make either one easier when pattern matching (i.e. Some(ref dest) or Some(ref mut dest)).

However, I’m now convinced this is an invalid approach. Namely the users which want a mutable
reference may modify the Lvalue in-place, but the changes won’t be reflected in the final MIR,
since the Lvalue modified is merely a clone.

Instead, we have two accessors `destination` and `destination_mut` which return a reference to the
destination in desired mode.
