This adds support for rust-lld for Apple *OS targets.
This was tested against targets "aarch64-apple-ios" and "aarch64-apple-ios-sim".
For targets "armv7-apple-ios" and "armv7s-apple-ios", it doesn't link because of
"symbols.o" not being generated with the correct CPU subtype (changes in
the "object" crate needs to be done to support it).
It makes very little sense to maintain denylists of ABIs when, as far as
non-generic ABIs are concerned, targets usually only support a small
subset of the available ABIs.
This has historically been a cause of bugs such as us allowing use of
the platform-specific ABIs on x86 targets – these in turn would cause
LLVM errors or assertions to fire.

This PR adds ability for the target specifications to specify frame
pointer emission type that's not just “always” or “whatever cg decides”.
In particular there's a new mode that allows omission of the frame
pointer for leaf functions (those that don't call any other functions).
We then set this new mode for Aarch64-based Apple targets.
Fixes#86196
This ends up disabling frame pointer elimination on aarch64_apple_darwin
which matches what clang does by default along with the
aarch64_apple_ios and x86_64_apple_darwin targets.
Further, the Apple docs "Writing ARM64 Code for Apple Platforms" has a section
called "Respect the Purpose of Specific CPU Registers" which
specifically calls out the frame pointer register (x29):
The frame pointer register (x29) must always address a valid frame
record. Some functions — such as leaf functions or tail calls — may
opt not to create an entry in this list As a result, stack traces
are always meaningful, even without debug information.
Other platforms are updated to not override the default.
