The new implementation doesn't use weak lang items and instead changes `#[alloc_error_handler]` to an attribute macro just like `#[global_allocator]`. The attribute will generate the `__rg_oom` function which is called by the compiler-generated `__rust_alloc_error_handler`. If no `__rg_oom` function is defined in any crate then the compiler shim will call `__rdl_oom` in the alloc crate which will simply panic. This also fixes link errors with `-C link-dead-code` with `default_alloc_error_handler`: `__rg_oom` was previously defined in the alloc crate and would attempt to reference the `oom` lang item, even if it didn't exist. This worked as long as `__rg_oom` was excluded from linking since it was not called. This is a prerequisite for the stabilization of `default_alloc_error_handler` (#102318). |

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.
