Michael Woerister e169261a6f debuginfo: Fix debuginfo for Box<T> where T is unsized.
Before this fix, the debuginfo for the fields was generated from the
struct defintion of Box<T>, but (at least at the moment) the compiler
pretends that Box<T> is just a (fat) pointer, so the fields need to be
`pointer` and `vtable` instead of `__0: Unique<T>` and `__1: Allocator`.

This is meant as a temporary mitigation until we can make sure that
simply treating Box as a regular struct in debuginfo does not cause too
much breakage in the ecosystem.

README.md

The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR, and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code that runs towards the end of the compilation process.

For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
