The initial naming of "Abi" was an awful mistake, conveying wrong ideas
about how psABIs worked and even more about what the enum meant.
It was only meant to represent the way the value would be described to
a codegen backend as it was lowered to that intermediate representation.
It was never meant to mean anything about the actual psABI handling!
The conflation is because LLVM typically will associate a certain form
with a certain ABI, but even that does not hold when the special cases
that actually exist arise, plus the IR annotations that modify the ABI.
Reframe `rustc_abi::Abi` as the `BackendRepr` of the type, and rename
`BackendRepr::Aggregate` as `BackendRepr::Memory`. Unfortunately, due to
the persistent misunderstandings, this too is now incorrect:
- Scattered ABI-relevant code is entangled with BackendRepr
- We do not always pre-compute a correct BackendRepr that reflects how
we "actually" want this value to be handled, so we leave the backend
interface to also inject various special-cases here
- In some cases `BackendRepr::Memory` is a "real" aggregate, but in
others it is in fact using memory, and in some cases it is a scalar!
Our rustc-to-backend lowering code handles this sort of thing right now.
That will eventually be addressed by lifting duplicated lowering code
to either rustc_codegen_ssa or rustc_target as appropriate.
llvm: replace some deprecated functions
`LLVMMDStringInContext` and `LLVMMDNodeInContext` are deprecated, replace them with `LLVMMDStringInContext2` and `LLVMMDNodeInContext2`.
Also replace `Value` with `Metadata` in some function signatures for better consistency.
Supertraits of `BuilderMethods` are all called `XyzBuilderMethods`.
Supertraits of `CodegenMethods` are all called `XyzMethods`. This commit
changes the latter to `XyzCodegenMethods`, for consistency.
Add `f16` inline ASM support for 32-bit ARM
Adds `f16` inline ASM support for 32-bit ARM. SIMD vector types are taken from [here](https://developer.arm.com/architectures/instruction-sets/intrinsics/#f:`@navigationhierarchiesreturnbasetype=[float]&f:@navigationhierarchieselementbitsize=[16]&f:@navigationhierarchiesarchitectures=[A32]).`

We already use `Instance` at declaration sites when available to glean
additional information about possible abstractions of the type in use.
This does the same when possible at callsites as well.
The primary purpose of this change is to allow CFI to alter how it
generates type information for indirect calls through `Virtual`
instances.
Use `unstable_target_features` when checking inline assembly
This is necessary to properly validate register classes even when the relevant target feature name is still unstable.
Add cross-language LLVM CFI support to the Rust compiler
This PR adds cross-language LLVM Control Flow Integrity (CFI) support to the Rust compiler by adding the `-Zsanitizer-cfi-normalize-integers` option to be used with Clang `-fsanitize-cfi-icall-normalize-integers` for normalizing integer types (see https://reviews.llvm.org/D139395).
It provides forward-edge control flow protection for C or C++ and Rust -compiled code "mixed binaries" (i.e., for when C or C++ and Rust -compiled code share the same virtual address space). For more information about LLVM CFI and cross-language LLVM CFI support for the Rust compiler, see design document in the tracking issue #89653.
Cross-language LLVM CFI can be enabled with -Zsanitizer=cfi and -Zsanitizer-cfi-normalize-integers, and requires proper (i.e., non-rustc) LTO (i.e., -Clinker-plugin-lto).
Thank you again, ``@bjorn3,`` ``@nikic,`` ``@samitolvanen,`` and the Rust community for all the help!

...and remove it from `PointeeInfo`, which isn't meant for this.
There are still various places (marked with FIXMEs) that assume all pointers
have the same size and alignment. Fixing this requires parsing non-default
address spaces in the data layout string, which will be done in a followup.
LLVM 16: Switch to using MemoryEffects
This adapts the compiler to the changes required by 304f1d59ca.
AFAICT, `WriteOnly` isn't used by the compiler, all `ReadNone` uses were migrated and the remaining use of `ReadOnly` is only for function parameters.
To simplify the FFI, this PR uses an enum to represent `MemoryEffects` across the FFI boundary, which then gets mapped to the matching static factory method when constructing the attribute.
Fixes#103961.

asm: Work around LLVM bug on AArch64
Upstream issue: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/58384
LLVM gets confused if we assign a 32-bit value to a 64-bit register, so pass the 32-bit register name to LLVM in that case.
asm: Match clang behavior for inlateout fixed register operands
We have 2 options for representing LLVM constraints for `inlateout` operands on a fixed register (e.g. `r0`): `={r0},0` or `={r0},{r0}`.
This PR changes the behavior to the latter, which matches the behavior of Clang since https://reviews.llvm.org/D87279.
