Optimize builder sizes
The infra-team is continuously monitoring the efficiency of the CI system in an effort to improve overall build times and resource usage. Some builders have used much less than their allocated resources, so we are testing smaller builder sizes for them.

Spelling misc
These two files seem to be fairly distinct from everything else.
That said, if this project doesn't like changing changelogs, I'm happy to drop the changes to `RELEASES.md`
Like #107044, this will let us track compatibility with LLVM 16 going
forward, especially after we eventually upgrade our own to the next.
This also drops `tidy` here and in `x86_64-gnu-llvm-15`, syncing with
that change in #106085.
These builders aren't particularly high on overall average CPU usage and finish in typically around
30 minutes. Cutting their core counts will hopefully not significantly increase wall-time while
cutting costs, allowing us to shift some of the wins into our slower builders.
For now this keeps all the configuration identical (AFAICT) but we'll
likely want to play with the specifics to move some of the slower
builders to larger machines and the faster builders to smaller machines,
likely reducing overall usage and improving CI times.
Previously, it would only run on changes to subtrees, submodules, or select directories.
That made it so that changes to the compiler that broke tools would only be detected on a full bors merge.
This makes it so the tools builder runs by default, making it easier to catch breaking changes to clippy (which was the most effected).
Enable Cargo's sparse protocol in CI
This enables the sparse protocol in CI in order to exercise and dogfood it. This is intended test the production server in a real-world situation.
Closes#107342
Include both md and yaml ICE ticket templates
* Existing compilers link to the md version
* The YAML version field for the backtrace *doesn't let us paste a full backtrace*
* We will need the YAML version in order to be able to submit reports once we start storing the backtrace to disk
Follow up to #106831. Reaction to #106874, which made me realize that *really* long backtraces are rejected by GitHub Forms. A single backtrace won't hit this, but ICEs sometimes compound.
Port pgo.sh to Python
This PR ports the `pgo.sh` multi stage build file from bash to Python, to make it easier to add new functionality and gather statistics. Main changes:
1) `pgo.sh` rewritten from Bash to Python. Jump from ~200 Bash LOC to ~650 Python LOC. Bash is, unsurprisingly, more concise for running scripts and binaries.
2) Better logging. Each separate stage is now clearly separated in logs, and the logs can be quickly grepped to find out which stage has completed or failed, and how long it took.
3) Better statistics. At the end of the run, there is now a table that shows the duration of the individual stages, along with a percentual ratio of the total workflow run:

A sample run can be seen [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/actions/runs/3923980164/jobs/6707932029).
I tried to keep the code compatible with Python 3.6 and don't use dependencies, which required me to reimplement some small pieces of functionality (like formatting bytes). I suppose that it shouldn't be so hard to upgrade to a newer Python or install dependencies in the CI container, but I'd like to avoid it if it won't be needed.
The code is in a single file `stage-build.py`, so it's a bit cluttered. I can also separate it into multiple files, although having it in a single file has some benefits. The code could definitely be nicer, but I'm a bit wary of introducing a lot of abstraction and similar stuff, as long as the code is stuffed into a single file.
Currently, the Python pipeline should faithfully mirror the bash pipeline one by one. After this PR, I'd like to try to optimize it, e.g. by caching the LLVM builds on S3.

This duplicates mingw-check into two jobs where one job
runs `tidy` only while the other job does not. The tidy
job will not cancel other jobs on failure.
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.
