Remove special case for Box<ZST> in trans
Remove extra lang item, `exchange_free`; use `box_free` instead.
Trans used to insert code equivalent to `box_free` in a wrapper around
`exchange_free`, and that code is now removed from trans.
Fixes#37710.
- `--emit=asm --target=nvptx64-nvidia-cuda` can be used to turn a crate
into a PTX module (a `.s` file).
- intrinsics like `__syncthreads` and `blockIdx.x` are exposed as
`"platform-intrinsics"`.
- "cabi" has been implemented for the nvptx and nvptx64 architectures.
i.e. `extern "C"` works.
- a new ABI, `"ptx-kernel"`. That can be used to generate "global"
functions. Example: `extern "ptx-kernel" fn kernel() { .. }`. All
other functions are "device" functions.
initial SPARC support
### UPDATE
Can now compile `no_std` executables with:
```
$ cargo new --bin app && cd $_
$ edit Cargo.toml && tail -n2 $_
[dependencies]
core = { path = "/path/to/rust/src/libcore" }
$ edit src/main.rs && cat $_
#![feature(lang_items)]
#![no_std]
#![no_main]
#[no_mangle]
pub fn _start() -> ! {
loop {}
}
#[lang = "panic_fmt"]
fn panic_fmt() -> ! {
loop {}
}
$ edit sparc-none-elf.json && cat $_

Someone wants to attempt launching some Rust [into space](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/5h76oa/c_interop/) but their platform is based on the SPARCv8 architecture. Let's not block them by enabling LLVM's SPARC backend.
Something very important that they'll also need is the "cabi" stuff as they'll be embedding some Rust code into a bigger C application (i.e. heavy use of `extern "C"`). The question there is what name(s) should we use for "target_arch" as the "cabi" implementation [varies according to that parameter](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/1.13.0/src/librustc_trans/abi.rs#L498-L523).
AFAICT, SPARCv8 is a 32-bit architecture and SPARCv9 is a 64-bit architecture. And, LLVM uses `sparc`, `sparcv9` and `sparcel` for [the architecture triple](ac1c94226e/include/llvm/ADT/Triple.h (L67-L69)) so perhaps we should use `target_arch = "sparc"` (32-bit) and `target_arch = "sparcv9"` (64-bit) as well.
r? @alexcrichton This PR only enables this LLVM backend when rustbuild is used. Do I also need to implement this for the old Makefile-based build system? Or are all our nightlies now being generated using rustbuild?

This does not make unreachable and other terminators take self by-value
because it is deemed too difficult. We would need to create by-value
methods on BAB that call into Builder, due to the Deref to builder.
