Add methods to create StableMIR constant
I've been experimenting with transforming the StableMIR to instrument the code with potential UB checks.
The modified body will only be used by our analysis tool, however, constants in StableMIR must be backed by rustc constants. Thus, I'm adding a few functions to build constants, such as building string and other primitives.
One question I have is whether we should create a global allocation instead for strings.

Add `intrinsic_name` to get plain intrinsic name
Add an `intrinsic_name` API to retrieve the plain intrinsic name. The plain name does not include type arguments (as `trimmed_name` does), which is more convenient to match with intrinsic symbols.

Add asm goto support to `asm!`
Tracking issue: #119364
This PR implements asm-goto support, using the syntax described in "future possibilities" section of [RFC2873](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/2873-inline-asm.html#asm-goto).
Currently I have only implemented the `label` part, not the `fallthrough` part (i.e. fallthrough is implicit). This doesn't reduce the expressive though, since you can use label-break to get arbitrary control flow or simply set a value and rely on jump threading optimisation to get the desired control flow. I can add that later if deemed necessary.

`CompilerError` has `CompilationFailed` and `ICE` variants, which seems
reasonable at first. But the way it identifies them is flawed:
- If compilation errors out, i.e. `RunCompiler::run` returns an `Err`,
it uses `CompilationFailed`, which is reasonable.
- If compilation panics with `FatalError`, it catches the panic and uses
`ICE`. This is sometimes right, because ICEs do cause `FatalError`
panics, but sometimes wrong, because certain compiler errors also
cause `FatalError` panics. (The compiler/rustdoc/clippy/whatever just
catches the `FatalError` with `catch_with_exit_code` in `main`.)
In other words, certain non-ICE compilation failures get miscategorized
as ICEs. It's not possible to reliably distinguish the two cases, so
this commit merges them. It also renames the combined variant as just
`Failed`, to better match the existing `Interrupted` and `Skipped`
variants.
Here is an example of a non-ICE failure that causes a `FatalError`
panic, from `tests/ui/recursion_limit/issue-105700.rs`:
```
#![recursion_limit="4"]
#![invalid_attribute]
#![invalid_attribute]
#![invalid_attribute]
#![invalid_attribute]
#![invalid_attribute]
//~^ERROR recursion limit reached while expanding
fn main() {{}}
```
The internal function was unsound, it could cause UB in rare cases where
the user inadvertly stored the returned object in a location that could
outlive the TyCtxt.
In order to make it safe, we now take a type context as an argument to
the internal fn, and we ensure that interned items are lifted using the
provided context.
Thus, this change ensures that the compiler can properly enforce
that the object does not outlive the type context it was lifted to.
Make tcx optional from StableMIR run macro and extend it to accept closures
Change `run` macro to avoid sometimes unnecessary dependency on `TyCtxt`, and introduce `run_with_tcx` to capture use cases where `tcx` is required. Additionally, extend both macros to accept closures that may capture variables.
I've also modified the `internal()` method to make it safer, by accepting the type context to force the `'tcx` lifetime to match the context lifetime.
These are non-backward compatible changes, but they only affect internal APIs which are provided today as helper functions until we have a stable API to start the compiler.
I added `tcx` argument to `internal` to force 'tcx to be the same
lifetime as TyCtxt. The only other solution I could think is to change
this function to be `unsafe`.
Simplify the `run` macro to avoid sometimes unnecessary dependency
on `TyCtxt`. Instead, users can use the new internal method `tcx()`.
Additionally, extend the macro to accept closures that may capture
variables.
These are non-backward compatible changes, but they only affect
internal APIs which are provided today as helper functions until we
have a stable API to start the compiler.
Add method to get instance instantiation arguments
Add a method to get the instance instantiation arguments, and include that information in the instance debug.
Add function ABI and type layout to StableMIR
This change introduces a new module to StableMIR named `abi` with information from `rustc_target::abi` and `rustc_abi`, that allow users to retrieve more low level information required to perform bit-precise analysis.
The layout of a type can be retrieved via `Ty::layout`, and the instance ABI can be retrieved via `Instance::fn_abi()`.
To properly handle errors while retrieve layout information, we had to implement a few layout related traits.
