It's common to import dependencies from the sysroot via `extern crate`
rather than use an explicit cargo dependency, when it's necessary to use
the same dependency version as used by rustc itself. However, this is
dangerous for crates.io crates, since rustc may not pull in the
dependency on some targets, or may pull in multiple versions. In both
cases, the `extern crate` fails to resolve.
To address this, re-export all such dependencies from the appropriate
`rustc_*` crates, and use this alias from crates which would otherwise
need to use `extern crate`.
Support for `f16` and `f128` is varied across targets, backends, and
backend versions. Eventually we would like to reach a point where all
backends support these approximately equally, but until then we have to
work around some of these nuances of support being observable.
Introduce the `cfg_target_has_reliable_f16_f128` internal feature, which
provides the following new configuration gates:
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f16)`
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f16_math)`
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f128)`
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f128_math)`
`reliable_f16` and `reliable_f128` indicate that basic arithmetic for
the type works correctly. The `_math` versions indicate that anything
relying on `libm` works correctly, since sometimes this hits a separate
class of codegen bugs.
These options match configuration set by the build script at [1]. The
logic for LLVM support is duplicated as-is from the same script. There
are a few possible updates that will come as a follow up.
The config introduced here is not planned to ever become stable, it is
only intended to replace the build scripts for `std` tests and
`compiler-builtins` that don't have any way to configure based on the
codegen backend.

`rustc_codegen_llvm` and `rustc_codegen_gcc` duplicated logic for
checking if tied target features were partially enabled. This commit
consolidates these checks into `rustc_codegen_ssa` in the
`codegen_fn_attrs` query, which also is run pre-monomorphisation for
each function, which ensures that this check is run for unused functions,
as would be expected.
