Fix 32-bit overflows in LLVM composite constants Inspired by #121868. Fixes unsoundness created when constructing constant arrays, strings, and structs with 2^32 or more elements on x86_64. This introduces copies of a few LLVM functions that have their signatures updated to use size_t in place of unsigned int. Alternatively we could just add overflow checks and just disallow huge composite constants. That introduces less code, but maybe a huge static block of memory is useful in embedded/no-os situations? |

The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR,
and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code
that runs towards the end of the compilation process.
For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
