Add a new `compare_bytes` intrinsic instead of calling `memcmp` directly
As discussed in #113435, this lets the backends be the place that can have the "don't call the function if n == 0" logic, if it's needed for the target. (I didn't actually *add* those checks, though, since as I understood it we didn't actually need them on known targets?)
Doing this also let me make it `const` (unstable), which I don't think `extern "C" fn memcmp` can be.

Add documentation to has_deref
Documentation of `has_deref` needed some polish to be more clear about where it should be used and what's it's purpose.

const validation: point at where we found a pointer but expected an integer
Instead of validation just printing "unable to turn pointer into bytes", make this a regular validation error that says where in the value the bad pointer was found. Also distinguish "expected integer, got pointer" from "expected pointer, got partial pointer or mix of pointers".
To avoid duplicating things too much I refactored the diagnostics for validity a bit, so that "got uninit, expected X" and "got pointer, expected X" can share the "X" part. Also all the errors emitted for validation are now grouped under `const_eval_validation` so that they are in a single group in the ftl file.

Miri: fix error on dangling pointer inbounds offset
We used to claim that the pointer was "dereferenced", but that is just not true.
Can be reviewed commit-by-commit. The first commit is an unrelated rename that didn't seem worth splitting into its own PR.

clarify MIR uninit vs LLVM undef/poison
In [this LLVM discussion](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-load-instruction-uninitialized-memory-semantics/67481) I learned that mapping our uninitialized memory in MIR to poison in LLVM would be quite problematic due to the lack of a byte type. I am not sure where to write down this insight but this seems like a reasonable start.
miri will report an UB when calling a function that has a `#[target_feature(enable = ...)]` attribute is called and the required feature is not available.
"Available features" are the same that `is_x86_feature_detected!` (or equivalent) reports to be available during miri execution (which can be enabled or disabled with the `-C target-feature` flag).
Rename `adjustment::PointerCast` and variants using it to `PointerCoercion`
It makes it sounds like the `ExprKind` and `Rvalue` are supposed to represent all pointer related casts, when in reality their just used to share a little enum variants. Make it clear there these are only coercions and that people who see this and think "why are so many pointer related casts not in these variants" aren't insane.
This enum was added in #59987. I'm not sure whether the variant sharing is actually worth it, but this at least makes it less confusing.

Move `TyCtxt::mk_x` to `Ty::new_x` where applicable
Part of rust-lang/compiler-team#616
turns out there's a lot of places we construct `Ty` this is a ridiculously huge PR :S
