Nicholas Nethercote e55df623ea Remove an unchecked_claim_error_was_emitted call.
When `catch_fatal_errors` catches a `FatalErrorMarker`, it returns an
`ErrorGuaranteed` that is conjured out of thin air with
`unchecked_claim_error_was_emitted`. But that `ErrorGuaranteed` is never
used.

This commit changes it to instead conjure a `FatalError` out of thin
air. (A non-deprecated action!) This makes more sense because
`FatalError` and `FatalErrorMarker` are a natural pairing -- a
`FatalErrorMarker` is created by calling `FatalError::raise`, so this is
effectively getting back the original `FatalError`.

This requires a tiny change in `catch_with_exit_code`. The old result of
the `catch_fatal_errors` call there was
`Result<Result<(), ErrorGuaranteed>, ErrorGuaranteed>` which could be
`flatten`ed into `Result<(), ErrorGuaranteed>`. The new result of the
`catch_fatal_errors` calls is
`Result<Result<(), ErrorGuaranteed>, FatalError>`, which can't be
`flatten`ed but is still easily matched for the success case.

README.md

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.
