Otherwise we would have to replay the query in question, which we may not be able to do if the query
key is not reconstructible from the dep node fingerprint.
So we must track these flags to avoid replaying incorrect diagnostics.
Improved collapse_debuginfo attribute, added command-line flag
Improved attribute collapse_debuginfo with variants: `#[collapse_debuginfo=(no|external|yes)]`.
Added command-line flag for default behaviour.
Work-in-progress: will add more tests.

Remove `-Zdont-buffer-diagnostics`.
It was added in #54232. It seems like it was aimed at NLL development, which is well in the past. Also, it looks like `-Ztreat-err-as-bug` can be used to achieve the same effect. So it doesn't seem necessary.

Add -Zuse-sync-unwind
Currently Rust uses async unwind by default, but async unwind will bring non-negligible size overhead. it would be nice to allow users to choose this.
In addition, async unwind currently prevents LLVM from generate compact unwind for MachO, if one wishes to generate compact unwind for MachO, then also needs this flag.

Remove `-Zreport-delayed-bugs`.
It's not used within the repository in any way (e.g. in tests), and doesn't seem useful.
It was added in #52568.

Remove `-Zdump-mir-spanview`
The `-Zdump-mir-spanview` flag was added back in #76074, as a development/debugging aid for the initial work on what would eventually become `-Cinstrument-coverage`. It causes the compiler to emit an HTML file containing a function's source code, with various spans highlighted based on the contents of MIR.
When the suggestion was made to [triage and remove unnecessary `-Z` flags (Zulip)](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/131828-t-compiler/topic/.60-Z.60.20option.20triage), I noted that this flag could potentially be worth removing, but I wanted to keep it around to see whether I found it useful for my own coverage work.
But when I actually tried to use it, I ran into various issues (e.g. it crashes on `tests/coverage/closure.rs`). If I can't trust it to work properly without a full overhaul, then instead of diving down a rabbit hole of trying to fix arcane span-handling bugs, it seems better to just remove this obscure old code entirely.

rework `-Zverbose`
implements the changes described in https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/706
the first commit is only a name change from `-Zverbose` to `-Zverbose-internals` and does not change behavior. the second commit changes diagnostics.
possible follow up work:
- `ty::pretty` could print more info with `--verbose` than it does currently. `-Z verbose-internals` shows too much info in a way that's not helpful to users. michael had ideas about this i didn't fully understand: https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/233931-t-compiler.2Fmajor-changes/topic/uplift.20some.20-Zverbose.20calls.20and.20rename.20to.E2.80.A6.20compiler-team.23706/near/408984200
- `--verbose` should imply `-Z write-long-types-to-disk=no`. the code in `ty_string_with_limit` should take `--verbose` into account (apparently this affects `Ty::sort_string`, i'm not familiar with this code). writing a file to disk should suggest passing `--verbose`.

Implement `--env` compiler flag (without `tracked_env` support)
Part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/80792.
Implementation of https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/653.
Not an implementation of https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2794.
It adds the `--env` compiler flag option which allows to set environment values used by `env!` and `option_env!`.
Important to note: When trying to retrieve an environment variable value, it will first look into the ones defined with `--env`, and if there isn't one, then only it will look into the environment variables. So if you use `--env PATH=a`, then `env!("PATH")` will return `"a"` and not the actual `PATH` value.
As mentioned in the title, `tracked_env` support is not added here. I'll do it in a follow-up PR.

Currently LLVM uses emutls by default
for some targets (such as android, openbsd),
but rust does not use it, because `has_thread_local` is false.
This commit has some changes to allow users to enable emutls:
1. add `-Zhas-thread-local` flag to specify
that std uses `#[thread_local]` instead of pthread key.
2. when using emutls, decorate symbol names
to find thread local symbol correctly.
3. change `-Zforce-emulated-tls` to `-Ztls-model=emulated`
to explicitly specify whether to generate emutls.
This is intended to be used for Linux kernel RETHUNK builds.
With this commit (optionally backported to Rust 1.73.0), plus a
patched Linux kernel to pass the flag, I get a RETHUNK build with
Rust enabled that is `objtool`-warning-free and is able to boot in
QEMU and load a sample Rust kernel module.

In the future Windows will enable Control-flow Enforcement Technology
(CET aka Shadow Stacks). To protect the path where the context is
updated during exception handling, the binary is required to enumerate
valid unwind entrypoints in a dedicated section which is validated when
the context is being set during exception handling.
The required support for EHCONT has already been merged into LLVM,
long ago. This change adds the Rust codegen option to enable it.
Reference:
* https://reviews.llvm.org/D40223
This also adds a new `ehcont-guard` option to the bootstrap config which
enables EHCont Guard when building std.
Add -Z llvm_module_flag
Allow adding values to the `!llvm.module.flags` metadata for a generated module. The syntax is
`-Z llvm_module_flag=<name>:<type>:<value>:<behavior>`
Currently only u32 values are supported but the type is required to be specified for forward compatibility. The `behavior` element must match one of the named LLVM metadata behaviors.viors.
This flag is expected to be perma-unstable.
Remove `-Zperf-stats`.
The included measurements have varied over the years. At one point there were quite a few more, but #49558 deleted a lot that were no longer used. Today there's just four, and it's a motley collection that doesn't seem particularly valuable.
I think it has been well and truly subsumed by self-profiling, which collects way more data.

Remove `-Zkeep-hygiene-data`.
It was added way back in #28585 under the name `-Zkeep-mtwt-tables`. The justification was:
> This is so that the resolution results can be used after analysis,
> potentially for tool support.
There are no uses of significance in the code base, and various Google searches for both option names (and variants) found nothing of interest. I think this can safely be removed.

Add `std:#️⃣:{DefaultHasher, RandomState}` exports (needs FCP)
This implements rust-lang/libs-team#267 to move the libstd hasher types to `std::hash` where they belong, instead of `std::collections::hash_map`.
<details><summary>The below no longer applies, but is kept for clarity.</summary>
This is a small refactor for #27242, which moves the definitions of `RandomState` and `DefaultHasher` into `std::hash`, but in a way that won't be noticed in the public API.
I've opened rust-lang/libs-team#267 as a formal ACP to move these directly into the root of `std::hash`, but for now, they're at least separated out from the collections code in a way that will make moving that around easier.
I decided to simply copy the rustdoc for `std::hash` from `core::hash` since I think it would be ideal for the two to diverge longer-term, especially if the ACP is accepted. However, I would be willing to factor them out into a common markdown document if that's preferred.

@petrochenkov says removing this part (and it's only part) of the
hygiene data is dubious. It doesn't seem that big, so let's just keep it
around.
It was stabilized as `-C strip` in November 2021. The unstable option
was kept around as a temporary measure to ease the transition. Two years
is more than enough!
Remove support for alias `-Z symbol-mangling-version`
(This is very similar to the removal of `-Z instrument-coverage` in #117111.)
`-C symbol-mangling-version` was stabilized back in rustc 1.59.0 (2022-02-24) via #90128, with the old unstable flag kept around (with a warning) as an alias to ease migration.
