rustc: Store metadata-in-rlibs in object files
This commit updates how rustc compiler metadata is stored in rlibs.
Previously metadata was stored as a raw file that has the same format as
`--emit metadata`. After this commit, however, the metadata is encoded
into a small object file which has one section which is the contents of
the metadata.
The motivation for this commit is to fix a common case where #83730
arises. The problem is that when rustc crates a `dylib` crate type it
needs to include entire rlib files into the dylib, so it passes
`--whole-archive` (or the equivalent) to the linker. The problem with
this, though, is that the linker will attempt to read all files in the
archive. If the metadata file were left as-is (today) then the linker
would generate an error saying it can't read the file. The previous
solution was to alter the rlib just before linking, creating a new
archive in a temporary directory which has the metadata file removed.
This problem from before this commit is now removed if the metadata file
is stored in an object file that the linker can read. The only caveat we
have to take care of is to ensure that the linker never actually
includes the contents of the object file into the final output. We apply
similar tricks as the `.llvmbc` bytecode sections to do this.
This involved changing the metadata loading code a bit, namely updating
some of the LLVM C APIs used to use non-deprecated ones and fiddling
with the lifetimes a bit to get everything to work out. Otherwise though
this isn't intended to be a functional change really, only that metadata
is stored differently in archives now.
This should end up fixing #83730 because by default dylibs will no
longer have their rlib dependencies "altered" meaning that
split-debuginfo will continue to have valid paths pointing at the
original rlibs. (note that we still "alter" rlibs if LTO is enabled to
remove Rust object files and we also "alter" for the #[link(cfg)]
feature, but that's rarely used).
Closes#83730

Support Android ndk versions `r23-beta3` and up
Since android ndk version `r23-beta3`, `libgcc` has been replaced with `libunwind`. This moves the linking of `libgcc`/`libunwind` into the `unwind` crate where we check if the system compiler can find `libunwind` and fall back to `libgcc` if needed.

Reduce the amount of untracked state in TyCtxt
Access to untracked global state may generate instances of #84970.
The GlobalCtxt contains the lowered HIR, the resolver outputs and interners.
By wrapping the resolver inside a query, we make sure those accesses are properly tracked.
As a no_hash query, all dependent queries essentially become `eval_always`,
what they should have been from the beginning.
Don't panic when failing to initialize incremental directory.
This removes a panic when rustc fails to initialize the incremental directory. This can commonly happen on various filesystems that don't support locking (often various network filesystems). Panics can be confusing and scary, and there are already plenty of issues reporting this.
This has been panicking since 1.22 due to I think #44502 which was a major rework of how things work. Previously, things were simpler and the [`load_dep_graph`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/1.21.0/src/librustc_incremental/persist/load.rs#L43-L65) function would emit an error and then continue on without panicking. With 1.22, [`load_dep_graph`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/1.22.0/src/librustc_incremental/persist/load.rs#L44) was changed so that it assumes it can load the data without errors. Today, the problem is that it calls [`prepare_session_directory`](fbf1b1a719/compiler/rustc_interface/src/passes.rs (L175-L179)) and then immediately calls `garbage_collect_session_directories` which will panic since the session is `IncrCompSession::NotInitialized`.
The solution here is to have `prepare_session_directory` return an error that must be handled so that compilation stops if it fails.
Some other options:
* Ignore directory lock failures.
* Print a warning on directory lock failure, but otherwise continue with incremental enabled.
* Print a warning on directory lock failure, and disable incremental.
* Provide a different locking mechanism.
Cargo ignores lock errors if locking is not supported, so that would be a precedent for the first option. These options would require quite a bit more changes, but I'm happy to entertain any of them, as I think they all have valid justifications.
There is more discussion on the many issues where this is reported: #49773, #59224, #66513, #76251. I'm not sure if this can be considered closing any of those, though, since I think there is some value in discussing if there is a way to avoid the error altogether. But I think it would make sense to at least close all but one to consolidate them.
Update cc
Recent commits have improved `cc`'s finding of MSVC tools on Windows. In particular it should help to address these issues: #83043 and #43468
This avoids the following warning:

Use the object crate for metadata reading
This allows sharing the metadata reader between cg_llvm, cg_clif and other codegen backends.
This is not currently useful for rlib reading with cg_spirv ([rust-gpu](https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu/)) as it uses tar rather than ar as .rlib format, but it is useful for dylib reading required for loading proc macros. (cc `@eddyb)`
The object crate is already trusted as dependency of libstd through backtrace. As far as I know it supports reading all object file formats used by targets for which we support rust dylibs with crate metadata, but I am not certain. If this happens to not be the case, I could keep using LLVM for reading dylib metadata.
Marked as WIP for a perf run and as it is based on #83637.
Implement `x.py test src/tools/clippy --bless`
- Add clippy_dev to the rust workspace
Before, it would give an error that it wasn't either included or
excluded from the workspace:
```
error: current package believes it's in a workspace when it's not:
current: /home/joshua/rustc/src/tools/clippy/clippy_dev/Cargo.toml
workspace: /home/joshua/rustc/Cargo.toml
this may be fixable by adding `src/tools/clippy/clippy_dev` to the `workspace.members` array of the manifest located at: /home/joshua/rustc/Cargo.toml
Alternatively, to keep it out of the workspace, add the package to the `workspace.exclude` array, or add an empty `[workspace]` table to the package's manifest.
```
- Change clippy's copy of compiletest not to special-case
rust-lang/rust. Using OUT_DIR confused `clippy_dev` and it couldn't find
the test outputs. This is one of the reasons why `cargo dev bless` used
to silently do nothing (the others were that `CARGO_TARGET_DIR` and
`PROFILE` weren't set appropriately).
- Run clippy_dev on test failure
I tested this by removing a couple lines from a stderr file, and they
were correctly replaced.
- Fix clippy_dev warnings
Update grab bag
This PR slides a bunch of crate versions forward until suddenly a bunch of deps fall out of the tree!
In doing so this mostly picks up a version bump in the `redox_users` crate which makes most of the features default to optional.
crossbeam-utils 0.7 => 0.8.3 (where applicable)
https://github.com/crossbeam-rs/crossbeam/blob/master/crossbeam-utils/CHANGELOG.md
directories 3.0.1 => 3.0.2
ignore 0.4.16 => 0.4.17
tempfile 3.0.5 => tempfile 3.2
Removes constant_time_eq from deps exceptions
Removes arrayref from deps exceptions
And also removes:
- blake2b_simd
- const_fn (the package, not the feature)
- constant_time_eq
- redox_users 0.3.4
- rust-argon2
