bors 9a757817c3 Auto merge of #89597 - michaelwoerister:improve-vtable-debuginfo, r=wesleywiser
Create more accurate debuginfo for vtables.

Before this PR all vtables would have the same name (`"vtable"`) in debuginfo. Now they get an unambiguous name that identifies the implementing type and the trait that is being implemented.

This is only one of several possible improvements:
- This PR describes vtables as arrays of `*const u8` pointers. It would nice to describe them as structs where function pointer is represented by a field with a name indicative of the method it maps to. However, this requires coming up with a naming scheme that avoids clashes between methods with the same name (which is possible if the vtable contains multiple traits).
- The PR does not update the debuginfo we generate for the vtable-pointer field in a fat `dyn` pointer. Right now there does not seem to be an easy way of getting ahold of a vtable-layout without also knowing the concrete self-type of a trait object.
