Discovered in #61416 an accidental regression in libstd's backtrace
behavior is that it previously attempted to consult libbacktrace and
would then fall back to `dladdr` if libbacktrace didn't report anything.
The `backtrace` crate, however, did not do this, so that's now been
fixed!

This adds a new diagnostic writer `AnnotateRsEmitterWriter` that uses
the [`annotate-snippet`][as] library to print out the human readable
diagnostics.
The goal is to eventually switch over to using the library instead of
maintaining our own diagnostics output.
This commit does *not* add all the required features to the new
diagnostics writer. It is only meant as a starting point so that other
people can contribute as well.

strip synstructure consts from compiler docs
Fixes#60150.
Unfortunately this PR depends on the use of the deprecated `--passes` flag in bootstrap to keep the `--strip-hidden` pass while still documenting private items. I've opened #60884 to track stabilization of a new flag that encapsulates this behavior.

This commit removes all in-tree support for generating backtraces in
favor of depending on the `backtrace` crate on crates.io. This resolves
a very longstanding piece of duplication where the standard library has
long contained the ability to generate a backtrace on panics, but the
code was later extracted and duplicated on crates.io with the
`backtrace` crate. Since that fork each implementation has seen various
improvements one way or another, but typically `backtrace`-the-crate has
lagged behind libstd in one way or another.
The goal here is to remove this duplication of a fairly critical piece
of code and ensure that there's only one source of truth for generating
backtraces between the standard library and the crate on crates.io.
Recently I've been working to bring the `backtrace` crate on crates.io
up to speed with the support in the standard library which includes:
* Support for `StackWalkEx` on MSVC to recover inline frames with
debuginfo.
* Using `libbacktrace` by default on MinGW targets.
* Supporting `libbacktrace` on OSX as an option.
* Ensuring all the requisite support in `backtrace`-the-crate compiles
with `#![no_std]`.
* Updating the `libbacktrace` implementation in `backtrace`-the-crate to
initialize the global state with the correct filename where necessary.
After reviewing the code in libstd the `backtrace` crate should be at
exact feature parity with libstd today. The backtraces generated should
have the same symbols and same number of frames in general, and there's
not known divergence from libstd currently.
Note that one major difference between libstd's backtrace support and
the `backtrace` crate is that on OSX the crates.io crate enables the
`coresymbolication` feature by default. This feature, however, uses
private internal APIs that aren't published for OSX. While they provide
more accurate backtraces this isn't appropriate for libstd distributed
as a binary, so libstd's dependency on the `backtrace` crate explicitly
disables this feature and forces OSX to use `libbacktrace` as a
symbolication strategy.
The long-term goal of this refactoring is to eventually move us towards
a world where we can drop `libbacktrace` entirely and simply use Gimli
and the surrounding crates for backtrace support. That's still aways off
but hopefully will much more easily enabled by having the source of
truth for backtraces live in crates.io!
Procedurally if we go forward with this I'd like to transfer the
`backtrace-rs` crate to the rust-lang GitHub organization as well, but I
figured I'd hold off on that until we get closer to merging.
This commit bumps the `compiler-builtins` dependency to 0.1.15 which
expects to have the source for `compiler-rt` provided externally if the
`c` feature is enabled. This then plumbs through the necessary support
in the build system to ensure that if the `llvm-project` directory is
checked out and present that we enable the `c` feature of
`compiler-builtins` and compile in all the C intrinsics.
This updates to 0.1.13 for `compiler_builtins`, published to fix a few
issues. The feature changes here are updated because `compiler_builtins`
no longer enables the `c` feature by default but we want to do so
through our build still.
Closes#60747Closes#60782
`find_attr_val(&line, "since")` returns `Some(", issue = ")` when
`line` is set to the following line:
```
[unstable(feature = "checked_duration_since", issue = "58402")]
```
Make `find_attr_val` use regex that is a little bit more
precise (requires `=` after key name).
It still does not handle all cases (e.g., extra leading chars in key
name, or escaped quotes in value), but is good enough for now.
The commit moves metadata writing from `link_binary` to
`encode_metadata` (and renames the latter as
`encode_and_write_metadata`). This is at the very start of code
generation.
