This replaces the drop_in_place reference with null in vtables. On
librustc_driver.so, this drops about ~17k dynamic relocations from the
output, since many vtables can now be placed in read-only memory, rather
than having a relocated pointer included.
This makes a tradeoff by adding a null check at vtable call sites.
That's hard to avoid without changing the vtable format (e.g., to use a
pc-relative relocation instead of an absolute address, and avoid the
dynamic relocation that way). But it seems likely that the check is
cheap at runtime.
This skips emitting extra arguments at every callsite (of which there
can be many). For a librustc_driver build with overflow checks enabled,
this cuts 0.7MB from the resulting binary.
