Rollup merge of #113723 - khei4:khei4/llvm-stats, r=oli-obk,nikic
Resurrect: rustc_llvm: Add a -Z `print-codegen-stats` option to expose LLVM statistics.

This resurrects PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104000, which has sat idle for a while. And I want to see the effect of stack-move optimizations on LLVM (like https://reviews.llvm.org/D153453) :).

I have applied the changes requested by `@oli-obk` and `@nagisa`  https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104000#discussion_r1014625377 and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104000#discussion_r1014642482 in the latest commits.

r? `@oli-obk`

LLVM has a neat [statistics](https://llvm.org/docs/ProgrammersManual.html#the-statistic-class-stats-option) feature that tracks how often optimizations kick in. It's very handy for optimization work. Since we expose the LLVM pass timings, I thought it made sense to expose the LLVM statistics too.

(Edit: fix broken link
(Edit2: fix segmentation fault and use malloc

If `rustc` is built with
```toml
[llvm]
assertions = true
```
Then you can see like
```
rustc +stage1 -Z print-codegen-stats -C opt-level=3  tmp.rs
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
                          ... Statistics Collected ...
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
         3 aa                           - Number of MayAlias results
       193 aa                           - Number of MustAlias results
       531 aa                           - Number of NoAlias results
...
```

And the current default build emits only
```
$ rustc +stage1 -Z print-codegen-stats -C opt-level=3  tmp.rs
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
                          ... Statistics Collected ...
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
$
```
This might be better to emit the message to tell assertion flag necessity, but now I can't find how to do that...
