don't encode only locally used attrs

Part of https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/505.

We now filter builtin attributes before encoding them in the crate metadata in case they should only be used in the local crate. To prevent accidental misuse `get_attrs` now requires the caller to state which attribute they are interested in. For places where that isn't trivially possible, I've added a method `fn get_attrs_unchecked` which I intend to remove in a followup PR.

After this pull request landed, we can then slowly move all attributes to only be used in the local crate while being certain that we don't accidentally try to access them from extern crates.

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.
