This commit builds on #65501 continue to simplify the build system and
compiler now that we no longer have multiple LLVM backends to ship by
default. Here this switches the compiler back to what it once was long
long ago, which is linking LLVM directly to the compiler rather than
dynamically loading it at runtime. The `codegen-backends` directory of
the sysroot no longer exists and all relevant support in the build
system is removed. Note that `rustc` still supports a dynamically loaded
codegen backend as it did previously, it just no longer supports
dynamically loaded codegen backends in its own sysroot.
Additionally as part of this the `librustc_codegen_llvm` crate now once
again explicitly depends on all of its crates instead of implicitly
loading them through the sysroot. This involved filling out its
`Cargo.toml` and deleting all the now-unnecessary `extern crate`
annotations in the header of the crate. (this in turn required adding a
number of imports for names of macros too).
The end results of this change are:
* Rustbuild's build process for the compiler as all the "oh don't forget
the codegen backend" checks can be easily removed.
* Building `rustc_codegen_llvm` is much simpler since it's simply
another compiler crate.
* Managing the dependencies of `rustc_codegen_llvm` is much simpler since
it's "just another `Cargo.toml` to edit"
* The build process should be a smidge faster because there's more
parallelism in the main rustc build step rather than splitting
`librustc_codegen_llvm` out to its own step.
* The compiler is expected to be slightly faster by default because the
codegen backend does not need to be dynamically loaded.
* Disabling LLVM as part of rustbuild is still supported, supporting
multiple codegen backends is still supported, and dynamic loading of a
codegen backend is still supported.
As discussed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/10184
Currently, casting a floating point number to an integer with `as` is Undefined Behavior if the value is out of range. `-Z saturating-float-casts` fixes this soundness hole by making `as` “saturate” to the maximum or minimum value of the integer type (or zero for `NaN`), but has measurable negative performance impact in some benchmarks. There is some consensus in that thread for enabling saturation by default anyway, but provide an `unsafe fn` alternative for users who know through some other mean that their values are in range.
rustc: split FnAbi's into definitions/direct calls ("of_instance") and indirect calls ("of_fn_ptr").
After this PR:
* `InstanceDef::Virtual` is only used for "direct" virtual calls, and shims around those calls use `InstanceDef::ReifyShim` (i.e. for `<dyn Trait as Trait>::f as fn(_)`)
* this could easily be done for intrinsics as well, to allow their reification, but I didn't do it
* `FnAbi::of_instance` is **always** used for declaring/defining an `fn`, and for direct calls to an `fn`
* this is great for e.g. https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/65881 (`#[track_caller]`), which can introduce the "caller location" argument into "codegen signatures" by only changing `FnAbi::of_instance`, after this PR
* `FnAbi::of_fn_ptr` is used primarily for indirect calls, i.e. to `fn` pointers
* *not* virtual calls (which use `FnAbi::of_instance` with `InstanceDef::Virtual`)
* there's also a couple uses where the `rustc_codegen_llvm` needs to declare (i.e. FFI-import) an LLVM function that has no Rust declaration available at all
* at least one of them could probably be a "weak lang item" instead
As there are many steps, this PR is best reviewed commit by commit - some of which arguably should be in their own PRs, I may have gotten carried away a bit.

LLVM 7 is over a year old, which should be plenty for compatibility. The
last LLVM 6 holdout was llvm-emscripten, which went away in #65501.
I've also included a fix for LLVM 8 lacking `MemorySanitizerOptions`,
which was broken by #66522.
We also sever syntax's dependency on rustc_target as a result.
This should slightly improve pipe-lining.
Moreover, some cleanup is done in related code.
rustc_target: rename {Fn,Arg}Type to {Fn,Arg}Abi.
I was trying to tweak the API of `FnType` (now `FnAbi`) and the name kept bothering me.
`FnAbi` is to a function signature a bit like a layout is to a type, so the name still isn't perfect yet, but at least it doesn't have the misleading `Type` in it anymore.
If this can't land I think I can continue my original refactor without it, so I'm not strongly attached to it.

LLVM assumes that a thread will eventually cause side effect. This is
not true in Rust if a loop or recursion does nothing in its body,
causing undefined behavior even in common cases like `loop {}`.
Inserting llvm.sideeffect fixes the undefined behavior.
As a micro-optimization, only insert llvm.sideeffect when jumping back
in blocks or calling a function.
A patch for LLVM is expected to allow empty non-terminate code by
default and fix this issue from LLVM side.

so rename it `new_sized_aligned`.
6/11 use `align` = `layout.align.abi`.
`from_const_alloc` uses `alloc.align`, but that is `assert_eq!` to `layout.align.abi`.
only 4/11 use something interesting for `align`.
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.
