Issue Details:
In some cases it is necessary to generate an "allocator shim" to forward various Rust allocation functions (e.g., `__rust_alloc`) to an underlying function (e.g., `malloc`). However, since this allocator shim is a manually created LLVM module it is not processed via the normal module processing code and so no debug info is generated for it (if debugging info is enabled).
Fix Details:
* Modify the `debuginfo` code to allow creating debug info for a module without a `CodegenCx` (since it is difficult, and expensive, to create one just to emit some debug info).
* After creating the allocator shim add in basic debug info.
Rather than relying on `getPointerElementType()` from LLVM function
pointers, we now pass the function type explicitly when building `call`
or `invoke` instructions.
with an eye on merging `TargetOptions` into `Target`.
`TargetOptions` as a separate structure is mostly an implementation detail of `Target` construction, all its fields logically belong to `Target` and available from `Target` through `Deref` impls.
Preparation for a subsequent change that replaces
rustc_target::config::Config with its wrapped Target.
On its own, this commit breaks the build. I don't like making
build-breaking commits, but in this instance I believe that it
makes review easier, as the "real" changes of this PR can be
seen much more easily.

Rename target_pointer_width to pointer_width because it is already
member of the Target struct.
The compiler supports only three valid values for target_pointer_width:
16, 32, 64. Thus it can safely be turned into an int.
This means less allocations and clones as well as easier handling of the type.

Guarded with `#![feature(default_alloc_error_handler)]` a default
`alloc_error_handler` is called, if a custom allocator is used and no
other custom `#[alloc_error_handler]` is defined.
The panic message does not contain the size anymore, because it would
pull in the fmt machinery, which would blow up the code size
significantly.
