Add verbatim linker to AIXLinker
This adds support for the "verbatim" native link modifier on AIX, will successfully pass the `native-link-modifier-verbatim-linker test case`
Use `std::mem::{size_of, size_of_val, align_of, align_of_val}` from the
prelude instead of importing or qualifying them.
These functions were added to all preludes in Rust 1.80.
Clean up various LLVM FFI things in codegen_llvm
cc ```@ZuseZ4``` I touched some autodiff parts
The major change of this PR is [bfd88ce](bfd88cead0) which makes `CodegenCx` generic just like `GenericBuilder`
The other commits mostly took advantage of the new feature of making extern functions safe, but also just used some wrappers that were already there and shrunk unsafe blocks.

Support raw-dylib link kind on ELF
raw-dylib is a link kind that allows rustc to link against a library without having any library files present.
This currently only exists on Windows. rustc will take all the symbols from raw-dylib link blocks and put them in an import library, where they can then be resolved by the linker.
While import libraries don't exist on ELF, it would still be convenient to have this same functionality. Not having the libraries present at build-time can be convenient for several reasons, especially cross-compilation. With raw-dylib, code linking against a library can be cross-compiled without needing to have these libraries available on the build machine. If the libc crate makes use of this, it would allow cross-compilation without having any libc available on the build machine. This is not yet possible with this implementation, at least against libc's like glibc that use symbol versioning. The raw-dylib kind could be extended with support for symbol versioning in the future.
This implementation is very experimental and I have not tested it very well. I have tested it for a toy example and the lz4-sys crate, where it was able to successfully link a binary despite not having a corresponding library at build-time.
I was inspired by Björn's comments in https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/bundle-zig-cc-in-rustup-by-default/22096/27

Fix link failure on AVR (incompatible ISA error)
Fixes#137739. A reproducer of the issue is present there. I believe the root cause was introducing the avr-none target (which has no CPU by default) while also trying to get the ISA revision from the target spec. This commit uses the `target-cpu` option instead, which is already required to be present for the target.

The embedded bitcode should always be prepared for LTO/ThinLTO
Fixes#115344. Fixes#117220.
There are currently two methods for generating bitcode that used for LTO. One method involves using `-C linker-plugin-lto` to emit object files as bitcode, which is the typical setting used by cargo. The other method is through `-C embed-bitcode=yes`.
When using with `-C embed-bitcode=yes -C lto=no`, we run a complete non-LTO LLVM pipeline to obtain bitcode, then the bitcode is used for LTO. We run the Call Graph Profile Pass twice on the same module.
This PR is doing something similar to LLVM's `buildFatLTODefaultPipeline`, obtaining the bitcode for embedding after running `buildThinLTOPreLinkDefaultPipeline`.

Make `#[used]` work when linking with `ld64`
To make `#[used]` work in static libraries, we use the `symbols.o` trick introduced in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/95604.
However, the linker shipped with Xcode, ld64, works a bit differently from other linkers; in particular, [it completely ignores undefined symbols by themselves](https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/ld64/blob/ld64-954.16/src/ld/parsers/macho_relocatable_file.cpp#L2455-L2468), and only consider them if they have relocations (something something atoms something fixups, I don't know the details).
So to make the `symbols.o` file work on ld64, we need to actually insert a relocation. That's kinda cumbersome to do though, since the relocation must be valid, and hence must point to a valid piece of machine code, and is hence very architecture-specific.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/133491, see that for investigation.

Another option would be to pass `-u _foo` to the final linker invocation. This has the problem that `-u` causes the linker to not be able to dead-strip the symbol, which is undesirable. (If we did this, we would possibly also want to do it by putting the arguments in a file by itself, and passing that file via ``@`,` e.g. ``@undefined_symbols.txt`,` similar to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/52699, though that [is only supported since Xcode 12](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode-release-notes/xcode-12-release-notes#Linking), and I'm not sure we wanna bump that).
Various other options that are probably all undesirable as they affect link time performance:
- Pass `-all_load` to the linker.
- Pass `-ObjC` to the linker (the Objective-C support in the linker has different code paths that load more of the binary), and instrument the binaries that contain `#[used]` symbols.
- Pass `-force_load` to libraries that contain `#[used]` symbols.
Failed attempt: Embed `-u _foo` in the object file with `LC_LINKER_OPTION`, akin to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/121293. Doesn't work, both because `ld64` doesn't read that from archive members unless it already has a reason to load the member (which is what this PR is trying to make it do), and because `ld64` only support the `-l`, `-needed-l`, `-framework` and `-needed_framework` flags in there.

Misc. `rustc_codegen_ssa` cleanups 🧹
Just a bunch of stuff I found while reading the crate's code.
Each commit can stand on its own.
Maybe r? `@Noratrieb` because I saw you did some similar cleanups on these files a while ago? (feel free to re-assign, I'm just guessing)
Pass through of target features to llvm-bitcode-linker and handling them
When using the llvm-bitcode-linker (`linker-flavor=llbc`) target-features are not passed through and are not handled by it.
The llvm-bitcode-linker is mainly used as a self contained linker to link llvm bitcode for the nvptx64 target. It uses `llvm-link`, `opt` and `llc` internally. To produce a `.ptx` file of a specific ptx-version it is necessary to pass the version to llc with the `--mattr` option. Without explicitly setting it, the emitted `.ptx`-version is the minimum supported version of the `--target-cpu`.
I would like to be able to explicitly set the ptx version as [some llvm problems only occur in earlier `.ptx`-versions](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/112998).
Therefore this pull request adds support for passing target features to llvm-bitcode-linker and handling them.
I was not quite sure if adding these features to `rustc_target/src/target_features.rs` is necessary or not. If so I will gladly add these.
r? ``@kjetilkjeka``
This commit removes the `avr-unknown-gnu-atmega328` target and replaces
it with a more generic `avr-none` variant that must be specialized with
the `-C target-cpu` flag (e.g. `-C target-cpu=atmega328p`).
The .ptx version produced by llc can be specified by passing it with --mattr. Currently it is not possible to specify the .ptx version with -Ctarget-feature because these are not passed through to llvm-bitcode-linker and handled by it. This commit adds both.
--target-feature and -mattr are passed with equals to mitigate issues when the value starts with a - (minus).
Export kernel descriptor for amdgpu kernels
The host runtime (HIP or HSA) expects a kernel descriptor object for each kernel in the ELF file. The amdgpu LLVM backend generates the object. It is created as a symbol with the name of the kernel plus a `.kd` suffix.
Add it to the exported symbols in the linker script, so that it can be found.
For reference, the symbol is created here in LLVM: d5457e4c16/llvm/lib/Target/AMDGPU/MCTargetDesc/AMDGPUTargetStreamer.cpp (L966)
I wrote [a test](6a9115b121) for this as well, I’ll add that once the target is merged and working.
With this, all PRs to get working code for amdgpu are open (this + the target + the two patches adding addrspacecasts for alloca and global variables).

- Don't show environment variables. Seeing PATH is almost never useful, and it can be extremely long.
- For .rlibs in the sysroot, replace crate hashes with a `"-*"` string. This will expand to the full crate name when pasted into the shell.
- Move `.rlib` to outside the glob.
- Abbreviate the sysroot path to `<sysroot>` wherever it appears in the arguments.
This also adds an example of the linker output as a run-make test. Currently it only runs on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, because each platform has its own linker arguments. So that it's stable across machines, pass BUILD_ROOT as an argument through compiletest through to run-make tests.
- Only use linker-flavor=gnu-cc if we're actually going to compare the output. It doesn't exist on MacOS.
These cannot be silenced with a CLI flag, and are not useful to warn
about. They can still be viewed for debugging purposes using
`RUSTC_LOG=rustc_codegen_ssa:🔗:back`.
If we build the standard library with wasm-eh then we need to link
with `-fwasm-exceptions` even if we compile with `panic=abort`
Without this change, linking a `panic=abort` crate fails with:
`undefined symbol: __cpp_exception`.
Followup to #131830.
Add support for wasm exception handling to Emscripten target
This is a draft because we need some additional setting for the Emscripten target to select between the old exception handling and the new exception handling. I don't know how to add a setting like that, would appreciate advice from Rust folks. We could maybe choose to use the new exception handling if `Ctarget-feature=+exception-handling` is passed? I tried this but I get errors from llvm so I'm not doing it right.
Pass the arch rather than full target name to windows_registry::find_tool
The full target name can be anything with custom target specs. Passing just the arch wasn't possible before cc 1.2, but is now thanks to https://github.com/rust-lang/cc-rs/pull/1285.
