This commit updates rustc, with an applicable LLVM version, to use
LLVM's new `llvm.fpto{u,s}i.sat.*.*` intrinsics to implement saturating
floating-point-to-int conversions. This results in a little bit tighter
codegen for x86/x86_64, but the main purpose of this is to prepare for
upcoming changes to the WebAssembly backend in LLVM where wasm's
saturating float-to-int instructions will now be implemented with these
intrinsics.
This change allows simplifying a good deal of surrounding code, namely
removing a lot of wasm-specific behavior. WebAssembly no longer has any
special-casing of saturating arithmetic instructions and the need for
`fptoint_may_trap` is gone and all handling code for that is now
removed. This means that the only wasm-specific logic is in the
`fpto{s,u}i` instructions which only get used for "out of bounds is
undefined behavior". This does mean that for the WebAssembly target
specifically the Rust compiler will no longer be 100% compatible with
pre-LLVM 12 versions, but it seems like that's unlikely to be relied on
by too many folks.
Note that this change does immediately regress the codegen of saturating
float-to-int casts on WebAssembly due to the specialization of the LLVM
intrinsic not being present in our LLVM fork just yet. I'll be following
up with an LLVM update to pull in those patches, but affects a few other
SIMD things in flight for WebAssembly so I wanted to separate this change.
Eventually the entire `cast_float_to_int` function can be removed when
LLVM 12 is the minimum version, but that will require sinking the
complexity of it into other backends such as Cranelfit.
`fast-math` implies things like functions not being able to accept as an
argument or return as a result, say, `inf` which made these functions
confusingly named or behaving incorrectly, depending on how you
interpret it. Since the time when these intrinsics have been implemented
the intrinsics user's (stdsimd) approach has changed significantly and
so now it is required that these intrinsics operate normally rather than
in "whatever" way.
Fixes#84268
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.

Sometimes, a backend may need to emit warnings, errors, or otherwise
need to know the span of the current item in a basic block. So, add a
set_span method to give the backend that information.
The main use case of TrustedLen is allowing APIs to specialize on it,
but no use of it uses that specialization. Instead, only the .len()
function provided by ExactSizeIterator is used, which is already
required to be accurate.
Thus, the TrustedLen requirement on BuilderMethods::switch is redundant.
Make to_immediate/from_immediate configurable by backends
`librustc_codegen_ssa` has the concept of an immediate vs. memory type, and `librustc_codegen_llvm` uses this distinction to implement `bool`s being `i8` in memory, and `i1` in immediate contexts. However, some of that implementation leaked into `codegen_ssa` when converting to/from immediate values. So, move those methods into builder traits, so that behavior can be configured by backends.
This is useful if a backend is able to keep bools as bools, or, needs to do more trickery than just bools to bytes.
(Note that there's already a large amount of things abstracted with "immediate types" - this is just bringing this particular thing in line to be abstracted as well)

Pinging @eddyb since that's who I was talking about this change with when they suggested I submit a PR.
