Remove the unstable `extern "wasm"` ABI (`wasm_abi` feature tracked in #83788). As discussed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/127513#issuecomment-2220410679 and following, this ABI is a failed experiment that did not end up being used for anything. Keeping support for this ABI in LLVM 19 would require us to switch wasm targets to the `experimental-mv` ABI, which we do not want to do. It should be noted that `Abi::Wasm` was internally used for two things: The `-Z wasm-c-abi=legacy` ABI that is still used by default on some wasm targets, and the `extern "wasm"` ABI. Despite both being `Abi::Wasm` internally, they were not the same. An explicit `extern "wasm"` additionally enabled the `+multivalue` feature. I've opted to remove `Abi::Wasm` in this patch entirely, instead of keeping it as an ABI with only internal usage. Both `-Z wasm-c-abi` variants are now treated as part of the normal C ABI, just with different different treatment in adjust_for_foreign_abi. |

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.
