add support for unchecked math
add compiler support for
```rust
/// Returns the result of an unchecked addition, resulting in
/// undefined behavior when `x + y > T::max_value()` or `x + y < T::min_value()`.
pub fn unchecked_add<T>(x: T, y: T) -> T;
/// Returns the result of an unchecked substraction, resulting in
/// undefined behavior when `x - y > T::max_value()` or `x - y < T::min_value()`.
pub fn unchecked_sub<T>(x: T, y: T) -> T;
/// Returns the result of an unchecked multiplication, resulting in
/// undefined behavior when `x * y > T::max_value()` or `x * y < T::min_value()`.
pub fn unchecked_mul<T>(x: T, y: T) -> T;
```

`LocalInternedString::intern(x)` is preferable to
`Symbol::intern(x).as_str()`, because the former involves one call to
`with_interner` while the latter involves two.
Add intrinsic to create an integer bitmask from a vector mask
This PR adds a new simd intrinsic: `simd_bitmask(vector) -> unsigned integer` that creates an integer bitmask from a vector mask by extracting one bit of each vector lane.
This is required to implement: https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/packed_simd/issues/166 .
EDIT: the reason we need an intrinsics for this is that we have to truncate the vector lanes to an `<i1 x N>` vector, and then bitcast that to an `iN` integer (while making sure that we only materialize `i8`, ... , `i64` - that is, no `i1`, `i2`, `i4`, types), and we can't do any of that in a Rust library.

This was originally attempted in #57048 but it was realized that we
could fully remove the crate via the `"unadjusted"` ABI on intrinsics.
This means that all intrinsics in stdsimd are implemented directly
against LLVM rather than using the abstraction layer provided here. That
ends up meaning that this crate is no longer used at all.
This crate developed long ago to implement the SIMD intrinsics, but we
didn't end up using it in the long run. In that case let's remove it!
This is going to be required for binding a number of AVX-512 intrinsics
in the `stdsimd` repository, and this intrinsic is the same as
`simd_select` except that it takes a bitmask as the first argument
instead of a SIMD vector. This bitmask is then transmuted into a `<NN x
i8>` argument, depending on how many bits it is.

This was intended to land way back in 1.24, but it was backed out due to
breakage which has long since been fixed. An unstable `#[unwind]`
attribute can be used to tweak the behavior here, but this is currently
simply switching rustc's internal default to abort-by-default if an
`extern` function panics, making our codegen sound primarily (as
currently you can produce UB with safe code)
Closes#52652
