Enable ThinLTO for rustc on `x86_64-apple-darwin`
Local measurements seemed to show an improvement on a couple benchmarks, so I'd like to test real CI builds, and see if the builder doesn't timeout with the expected slight increase in build times.
Let's start with x64 rustc ThinLTO, and then figure out the file structure to configure LLVM ThinLTO. Maybe we'll then try `aarch64` builds since that also looked good locally.
Enable ThinLTO for rustc on x64 msvc
This applies the great work from `@bjorn3` and `@Kobzol` in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/101403 to x64 msvc.
Here are the local results for the try build `68c5c85ed759334a11f0b0e586f5032a23f85ce4`, compared to its parent `0a6b941df354c59b546ec4c0d27f2b9b0cb1162c`. Looking better than my previous local builds.
(I can't show cycle counts, as that option is failing on the windows version of the perf collector, but I'll try to analyze and debug this soon)
This will be the first of a few tests for rustc / llvm / both ThinLTO on the windows and mac targets.
Distribute bootstrap in CI
This pre-compiles bootstrap from source and adds it to the existing `rust-dev` component. There are two main goals here:
1. Make it faster to build rust from source, both the first time and incrementally
2. Make it easier to add non-python entrypoints, since they can call out to bootstrap directly rather than having to figure out the right flags to pre-compile it. This second part is still in a bit of flux, see the tracking issue below for more information.
There are also several changes to make bootstrap able to run on a machine other than the one it was built (particularly around `config.src` and `config.out` detection). I (`@jyn514)` am slightly concerned these will regress unless tested - maybe we should add an automated test that runs bootstrap in a chroot or something? Unclear whether the effort is worth the test coverage.
Helps with https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/94829.
- Add a new `bootstrap` component
Originally, we planned to combine this with the `rust-dev` component.
However, I realized that would force LLVM to be redownloaded whenever bootstrap is modified.
LLVM is a much larger download, so split this to get better caching.
- Build bootstrap for all tier 1 and 2 targets
See comment added for details on the test builder restriction. This is primarily
intended for macOS CI, but is likely to be a slight win on other builders too.

For some reason, `tar` behaves differently in such a way that it does
not create symlinks on Windows correctly, resulting in
`Cannot create symlink to 'ld.gold': No such file or directory`
errors.
This builder is the slowest in the fleet. This should cut a considerable
amount of time. The manifest should now include the docs from
x86_64-apple-darwin. Although those docs are slightly different, it
should be close enough. When aarch64-apple-darwin heads towards tier 1,
we can revisit whether or not to re-enable the docs.
Before, you could have the confusing situation where the command to
generate a component had no relation to the name of that component (e.g.
the `rustc` component was generated with `src/librustc`). This changes
the name to make them match up.
Skip documentation for tier 2 targets on dist-x86_64-apple-darwin
I don't have an easy way to test this locally, but I believe it should work. Based on one log result should shave ~14 minutes off the dist-x86_64-apple builder (doesn't help with aarch64 dist or x86_64 test builder, so not actually decreasing total CI time most likely).

CI: Enable overflow checks for test (non-dist) builds
They stay disabled for Apple builds though, which take the most time already due to running on slow hw.
Build aarch64-apple-ios-sim as part of the full macOS build
Part of the [MCP 428](https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/428) to promote this target to Tier 2.
This adds the aarch64-apple-ios-sim target as a tier 2 target, currently cross-compiled from our x86_64 apple builders. The compiler team has approved the addition per the MCP noted above, and the infrastructure team has not raised concerns with this addition at this time (as the CI time impact is expected to be minimal; this is only building std).
