bors db002a06ae Auto merge of #87570 - nikic:llvm-13, r=nagisa 
Upgrade to LLVM 13

Work in progress update to LLVM 13. Main changes:

 * InlineAsm diagnostics reported using SrcMgr diagnostic kind are now handled. Previously these used a separate diag handler.
 * Codegen tests are updated for additional attributes.
 * Some data layouts have changed.
 * Switch `#[used]` attribute from `llvm.used` to `llvm.compiler.used` to avoid SHF_GNU_RETAIN flag introduced in https://reviews.llvm.org/D97448, which appears to trigger a bug in older versions of gold.
 * Set `LLVM_INCLUDE_TESTS=OFF` to avoid Python 3.6 requirement.

Upstream issues:

 * ~~https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51210 (InlineAsm diagnostic reporting for module asm)~~ Fixed by 1558bb80c0.
 * ~~https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51476 (Miscompile on AArch64 due to incorrect comparison elimination)~~ Fixed by 81b106584f.
 * https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51207 (Can't set custom section flags anymore). Problematic change reverted in our fork, https://reviews.llvm.org/D107216 posted for upstream revert.
 * https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51211 (Regression in codegen for #83623). This is an optimization regression that we may likely have to eat for this release. The fix for #83623 was based on an incorrect premise, and this needs to be properly addressed in the MergeICmps pass.

The [compile-time impact](https://perf.rust-lang.org/compare.html?start=ef9549b6c0efb7525c9b012148689c8d070f9bc0&end=0983094463497eec22d550dad25576a894687002) is mixed, but quite positive as LLVM upgrades go.

The LLVM 13 final release is scheduled for Sep 21st. The current nightly is scheduled for stable release on Oct 21st.

README.md

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.
