Nicholas Nethercote aefbb616af Remove -Zperf-stats.
The included measurements have varied over the years. At one point there
were quite a few more, but #49558 deleted a lot that were no longer
used. Today there's just four, and it's a motley collection that doesn't
seem particularly valuable.

I think it has been well and truly subsumed by self-profiling, which
collects way more data.

The driver crate is effectively the "main" function for the rust compiler. It orchestrates the compilation process and "knits together" the code from the other crates within rustc. This crate itself does not contain any of the "main logic" of the compiler (though it does have some code related to pretty printing or other minor compiler options).

For more information about how the driver works, see the rustc dev guide.
