Most coverage metadata is encoded into two sections in the final executable.
The `__llvm_covmap` section mostly just contains a list of filenames, while the
`__llvm_covfun` section contains encoded coverage maps for each instrumented
function.
The catch is that each per-function record also needs to contain a hash of the
filenames list that it refers to. Historically this was handled by assembling
most of the per-function data into a temporary list, then assembling the
filenames buffer, then using the filenames hash to emit the per-function data,
and then finally emitting the filenames table itself.
However, now that we build the filenames table up-front (via a separate
traversal of the per-function data), we can hash and emit that part first, and
then emit each of the per-function records immediately after building. This
removes the awkwardness of having to temporarily store nearly-complete
per-function records.
The main change here is that `VirtualFileMapping` now uses an internal hashmap
to de-duplicate incoming global file IDs. That removes the need for
`encode_mappings_for_function` to re-sort its mappings by filename in order to
de-duplicate them.
(We still de-duplicate runs of identical filenames to save work, but this is
not load-bearing for correctness, so a sort is not necessary.)
The combined `get_expressions_and_counter_regions` method was an artifact of
having to prepare the expressions and mappings at the same time, to avoid
ownership/lifetime problems with temporary data used by both.
Now that we have an explicit transition from `FunctionCoverageCollector` to the
final `FunctionCoverage`, we can prepare any shared data during that step and
store it in the final struct.
This gives us a clearly-defined place to run code after the instance's MIR has
been traversed by codegen, but before we emit its `__llvm_covfun` record.

This is the minimal change required to make the second what-to-include.md example valid.
Another more modern solution could be considered:
```
/// Example
/// ```rust
/// let fortytwo = "42".parse::<u32>()?;
/// println!("{} + 10 = {}", fortytwo, fortytwo+10);
/// # Ok::<(), <u32 as std::str::FromStr>::Err>(())
/// ```
```
Use gdb.ValuePrinter tag class
GDB 14 has a "gdb.ValuePrinter" tag class that was introduced to let GDB evolve the pretty-printer API. Users of this tag are required to hide any local attributes or methods. This patch makes this change to the Rust pretty-printers. At present this is just a cleanup, providing the basis for any future changes.
ci: add a runner for vanilla LLVM 17
For CI cost, this can be seen as replacing the llvm-14 runner we dropped in #114148.
Also, I've set `IS_NOT_LATEST_LLVM` in the llvm-16 runner, since that's not the latest anymore.
Fix x86_64-gnu-llvm-15 CI tests
The CI script was broken - if there was a test failure in the first command chain (inside the `if`), CI would not report the failure.
It happened because there were two command chains separated by `&&` in the script, and since `set -e` doesn't exit for chained commands, if the first chain has failed, the script would happily continue forward, ignoring any test failures.
This could be fixed e.g. by adding some `|| exit 1` to the first chain, but I suppose that the `&&` chaining is unnecessary here anyway.

Sync rustc_codegen_cranelift
The main highlights this time is new support for riscv64 linux enabled by a cranelift update. I have also updated some of the crates built as part of cg_clif's test suite which enabled removing several patches for them. And finally I have fixed a couple of tests in rustc's test suite with cg_clif.

Mention the syntax for `use` on `mod foo;` if `foo` doesn't exist
Newcomers might get confused that `mod` is the only way of defining scopes, and that it can be used as if it were `use`.
Fix#69492.
coverage: Emit mappings for unused functions without generating stubs
For a while I've been annoyed by the fact that generating coverage maps for unused functions involves generating a stub function at the LLVM level.
As I suspected, generating that stub function isn't actually necessary, as long as we specifically tell LLVM about the symbol names of all the functions that have coverage mappings but weren't codegenned (due to being unused).

There is some helper code that gets moved around in the follow-up patches, so look at the first patch to see the most important functional changes.
