Resurrect: rustc_target: Add alignment to indirectly-passed by-value types, correcting the alignment of byval on x86 in the process.
Same as #111551, which I [accidentally closed](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/111551#issuecomment-1571222612) :/

This resurrects PR #103830, which has sat idle for a while.
Beyond #103830, this also:
- fixes byval alignment for types containing vectors on Darwin (see `tests/codegen/align-byval-vector.rs`)
- fixes byval alignment for overaligned types on x86 Windows (see `tests/codegen/align-byval.rs`)
- fixes ABI for types with 128bit requested alignment on ARM64 Linux (see `tests/codegen/aarch64-struct-align-128.rs`)

`@pcwalton's` original PR description is reproduced below:
Commit 88e4d2c from five years ago removed
support for alignment on indirectly-passed arguments because of problems with
the `i686-pc-windows-msvc` target. Unfortunately, the `memcpy` optimizations I
recently added to LLVM 16 depend on this to forward `memcpy`s. This commit
attempts to fix the problems with `byval` parameters on that target and now
correctly adds the `align` attribute.
The problem is summarized in [this comment] by `@eddyb.` Briefly, 32-bit x86 has
special alignment rules for `byval` parameters: for the most part, their
alignment is forced to 4. This is not well-documented anywhere but in the Clang
source. I looked at the logic in Clang `TargetInfo.cpp` and tried to replicate
it here. The relevant methods in that file are
`X86_32ABIInfo::getIndirectResult()` and
`X86_32ABIInfo::getTypeStackAlignInBytes()`. The `align` parameter attribute
for `byval` parameters in LLVM must match the platform ABI, or miscompilations
will occur. Note that this doesn't use the approach suggested by eddyb, because
I felt it was overkill to store the alignment in `on_stack` when special
handling is really only needed for 32-bit x86.
As a side effect, this should fix#80127, because it will make the `align`
parameter attribute for `byval` parameters match the platform ABI on LLVM
x86-64.
[this comment]: #80822 (comment)
Always name the return place.
MIR opts more and more consider `_0` as just another local, so there is no point in keeping the special case in debug-info logic.
It makes it sound like the `ExprKind` and `Rvalue` are supposed to represent all pointer related
casts, when in reality their just used to share a some enum variants. Make it clear there these
are only coercion to make it clear why only some pointer related "casts" are in the enum.
Make simd_shuffle_indices use valtrees
This removes the second-to-last user of the `destructure_mir_constant` query. So in a follow-up we can remove the query and just move the query provider function directly into pretty printing (which is the last user).
cc `@rust-lang/clippy` there's a small functional change, but I think it is correct?
Support for native WASM exceptions
### Motivation
Currently, rustc does not support native WASM exceptions. It does support JavaScript based exceptions for the wasm32-emscripten-target, but this requires back&forth with javascript for many calls, which is very slow.
Native wasm support for exceptions is quite common: Clang+LLVM implemented them years ago, and all major browsers support them by now. They enable zero-cost exceptions, at least with regard to runtime-performance-cost. They may increase startup-time and code size, though.
### Important: This PR does not change default behaviour
Exceptions usually add a lot of code in form of unwinding blocks, increasing the binary size. Most users probably do not want that, especially which regard to web development.
Therefore, wasm exceptions play a similar role as WASM-threads: rustc should support them, like clang does, but users who want to use it have to use some command-line magic like rustflags to opt in.
### What does this PR do?
As stated above, the default behaviour is not changed. It is already possible to opt-in into wasm exceptions using the command line. Unfortunately, the LLVM IR is invalid and the LLVM backend crashes.
```
rustc <sourcefile>
--target wasm32-unknown-unknown
-C panic=unwind
-C llvm-args=-wasm-enable-eh
-C target-feature=+exception-handling
```
As it turns out, LLVM is quite picky when it comes to IR for exception handling. If the IR does not look exactly like it should, some LLVM-assertions fail and the code generation crashes.
This PR adds the necessary modifications to the code generator to make it work. It also adds `exception-handling` as a wasm target feature.
### What this PR does not / what is missing
This PR is not a full fledges solution. It is the first step. A few parts are still missing; however, it is already useable (see next section).
Currently missing:
* The std library has to be adapted. Currently, only [no_std] crates work
* Usually, nested exceptions abort the program (i.e. a panic during the cleanup of another panic). This is currently not done yet.
- Currently, code inside cleanup handlers does not unwind
- To fix this requires a little more work: The code generator currently maintains a single terminate block per function for this. Unfortunately, WASM requires funclet based exception handling. Therefore, we need to create a terminate block per funclet. This is probably not a big problem, but I want to keep this PR simple.
### How to use the compiler given this PR?
This PR does not add any command line flags or features. It uses those which are already there. To compile with exceptions enabled, you need
* to set the panic strategy to unwind, i.e. `-C panic=unwind`
* to enable the exception-handling target feature, i.e. `-C target-feature=+exception-handling`
* to tell LLVM about the exception handling, i.e. `-C llvm-args=-wasm-enable-eh`
Since the standard library has not been adapted, you can only use it in [no_std] crates as of now. The intrinsic `core::intrinsics::r#try` works. To throw exceptions, you need the ```@llvm.wasm.throw``` intrinsic.
I created a sample application which works for me: https://github.com/mirkootter/rust-wasm-demos

mir opt + codegen: handle subtyping
fixes#107205
the same issue was caused in multiple places:
- mir opts: both copy and destination propagation
- codegen: assigning operands to locals (which also propagates values)
I changed codegen to always update the type in the operands used for locals which should guard against any new occurrences of this bug going forward. I don't know how to make mir optimizations more resilient here. Hopefully the added tests will be enough to detect any trivially wrong optimizations going forward.
These tend to have special handling in a bunch of places anyway, so the variant helps remember that. And I think it's easier to grok than non-Scalar Aggregates sometimes being `Immediates` (like I got wrong and caused 109992). As a minor bonus, it means we don't need to generate poison LLVM values for them to pass around in `OperandValue::Immediate`s.
offset_of: don't require type to be `Sized`
Fixes#112051
~~The RFC [explicitly forbids](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/3308-offset_of.html#limitations) non-`Sized` types, but it looks like only the fields being recursed into were checked. The sized check also seemed to have been completely missing for tuples~~
change `BorrowKind::Unique` to be a mutating `PlaceContext`
fixes#112056
I believe that `BorrowKind::Unique` is a footgun in general, so I added a FIXME and opened https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/112072. This is a bit too involved for this PR though.
Optimize scalar and scalar pair representations loaded from ByRef in llvm
in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/105653 I noticed that we were generating suboptimal LLVM IR if we had a `ConstValue::ByRef` that could be represented by a `ScalarPair`. Before https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/105653 this is probably rare, but after it, every slice will go down this suboptimal code path that requires LLVM to untangle a bunch of indirections and translate static allocations that are only used once to read a scalar pair from.
Use `Option::is_some_and` and `Result::is_ok_and` in the compiler
`.is_some_and(..)`/`.is_ok_and(..)` replace `.map_or(false, ..)` and `.map(..).unwrap_or(false)`, making the code more readable.

Allow MIR debuginfo to point to a variable's address
MIR optimizations currently do not to operate on borrowed locals.
When enabling #106285, many borrows will be left as-is because they are used in debuginfo. This pass allows to replace this pattern directly in MIR debuginfo:
```rust
a => _1
_1 = &raw? mut? _2
```
becomes
```rust
a => &_2
// No statement to borrow _2.
```
This pass is implemented as a drive-by in ReferencePropagation MIR pass.
This transformation allows following following MIR opts to treat _2 as an unborrowed local, and optimize it as such, even in builds with debuginfo.
In codegen, when encountering `a => &..&_2`, we create a list of allocas:
```llvm
store ptr %_2.dbg.spill, ptr %a.ref0.dbg.spill
store ptr %a.ref0.dbg.spill, ptr %a.ref1.dbg.spill
...
call void `@llvm.dbg.declare(metadata` ptr %a.ref{n}.dbg.spill, /* ... */)
```
Caveat: this transformation looses the exact type, we do not differentiate `a` as a immutable, mutable reference or a raw pointer. Everything is declared to `*mut` to codegen. I'm not convinced this is a blocker.
Align unsized locals
Allocate an extra space for unsized locals and manually align the storage, since alloca doesn't support dynamic alignment.
Fixes#71416.
Fixes#71695.
Make `(try_)subst_and_normalize_erasing_regions` take `EarlyBinder`
Changes `subst_and_normalize_erasing_regions` and `try_subst_and_normalize_erasing_regions` to take `EarlyBinder<T>` instead of `T`.
(related to #105779)
This was suggested by `@BoxyUwU` in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/107753#discussion_r1105828139. After changing `type_of` to return `EarlyBinder`, there were several places where the binder was immediately skipped to call `tcx.subst_and_normalize_erasing_regions`, only for the binder to be reconstructed inside of that method.
