Alex Crichton 45bf1ed1a1 rustc: Allow changing the default allocator
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1183][rfc] which allows swapping out
the default allocator on nightly Rust. No new stable surface area should be
added as a part of this commit.

[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1183

Two new attributes have been added to the compiler:

* `#![needs_allocator]` - this is used by liballoc (and likely only liballoc) to
  indicate that it requires an allocator crate to be in scope.
* `#![allocator]` - this is a indicator that the crate is an allocator which can
  satisfy the `needs_allocator` attribute above.

The ABI of the allocator crate is defined to be a set of symbols that implement
the standard Rust allocation/deallocation functions. The symbols are not
currently checked for exhaustiveness or typechecked. There are also a number of
restrictions on these crates:

* An allocator crate cannot transitively depend on a crate that is flagged as
  needing an allocator (e.g. allocator crates can't depend on liballoc).
* There can only be one explicitly linked allocator in a final image.
* If no allocator is explicitly requested one will be injected on behalf of the
  compiler. Binaries and Rust dylibs will use jemalloc by default where
  available and staticlibs/other dylibs will use the system allocator by
  default.

Two allocators are provided by the distribution by default, `alloc_system` and
`alloc_jemalloc` which operate as advertised.

Closes #27389
