Add a link validator to rustbuild
This commit was originally targeted at just adding a link checking script to the rustbuild system. This ended up snowballing a bit to extend rustbuild to be amenable to various tools we have as part of the build system in general.
There's a new `src/tools` directory which has a number of scripts/programs that are purely intended to be used as part of the build system and CI of this repository. This is currently inhabited by rustbook, the error index generator, and a new linkchecker script added as part of this PR. I suspect that more tools like compiletest, tidy scripts, snapshot scripts, etc will migrate their way into this directory over time.
The commit which adds the error index generator shows the steps necessary to add new tools to the build system, namely:
1. New steps are defined for building the tool and running the tool
2. The dependencies are configured
3. The steps are implemented
In terms of the link checker, these commits do a few things:
* A new `src/tools/linkchecker` script is added. This will read an entire documentation tree looking for broken relative links (HTTP links aren't followed yet).
* A large number of broken links throughout the documentation were fixed. Many of these were just broken when viewed from core as opposed to std, but were easily fixed.
* A few rustdoc bugs here and there were fixed
rustc: Add an i586-pc-windows-msvc target
Similarly to #31629 where an i586-unknown-linux-gnu target was added, there is
sometimes a desire to compile for x86 Windows as well where SSE2 is disabled.
This commit mirrors the i586-unknown-linux-gnu target and simply adds a variant
for Windows as well.
This is motivated by a recent [Gecko bug][ff] where crashes were seen on 32-bit
Windows due to users having CPUs that don't support SSE2 instructions. It was
requested that we could have non-SSE2 builds of the standard library available
so they could continue to use vanilla releases and nightlies.

mk: Distribute fewer TARGET_CRATES
Right now everything in TARGET_CRATES is built by default for all non-fulldeps
tests and is distributed by default for all target standard library packages.
Currenly this includes a number of unstable crates which are rarely used such as
`graphviz` and `rbml`>
This commit trims down the set of `TARGET_CRATES`, moves a number of tests to
`*-fulldeps` as a result, and trims down the dependencies of libtest so we can
distribute fewer crates in the `rust-std` packages.

Adding -Wno-error is more reliable and simple than trying to modify existing
flags. We've been using this in Debian already for the past few releases.
Making this change also encourages future maintainers towards "best practises".
Also take the opportunity to use the same method at all places in the file.

The `--disable-jemalloc` configure option has a failure mode where it will
create a distribution that is not compatible with other compilers. For example
the nightly for Linux will assume that it will link to jemalloc by default as
an allocator for executable crates. If, however, a standard library is used
which was built via `./configure --disable-jemalloc` then this will fail
because the jemalloc crate wasn't built.
While this seems somewhat reasonable as a niche situation, the same mechanism is
used for disabling jemalloc for platforms that just don't support it. For
example if the rumprun target is compiled then the sibiling Linux target *also*
doesn't have jemalloc. This is currently a problem for our cross-build nightlies
which build many targets. If rumprun is also built, it will disable jemalloc for
all targets, which isn't desired.
This commit moves the platform-specific disabling of jemalloc as hardcoded logic
into the makefiles that is scoped per-platform. This way when configuring
multiple targets **without the `--disable-jemalloc` option specified** all
targets will get jemalloc as they should.

You can now group tests into directories like `run-pass/borrowck` or `compile-fail/borrowck`. By default, all `.rs` files within any directory are considered tests: to ignore some directory, create a placeholder file called `compiletest-ignore-dir` (I had to do this for several existing directories).

Right now the compiler's we're using actually default to armv7/thumb2 I believe,
so this should help push them back to what the arm-unknown-linux-* targets are
for. This at least matches that clang does for the `arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf`
target which is to map it to an armv6 architecture.
Closes#31787

use CXX value found at configure time inside run-make tests.
it permits OpenBSD to pass llvm-module-pass test (which use CXX
variable).

This is because the tool compiler passes the name of the tool
as a command line `--cfg`. The improved session config parser
is stricter and no longer permits invalid meta items (such as
"error-index-generator").
Now that we properly only link in jemalloc when building executables, we have
far less to worry about in terms of polluting the global namespace with the
`free` and `malloc` symbols on Linux. This commit will primarily allow LLVM to
use jemalloc so the compiler will only be using one allocator overall.
Locally this took compile time for libsyntax from 95 seconds to 89 (a 6%
improvement).

I still need to add error code explanation test with this, but I can't figure out a way to generate the `.md` files in order to test example source codes.
Will fix#27328.
When building with Cargo we need to detect `feature = "jemalloc"` to enable
jemalloc, so propagate this same change to the build system to pass the right
`--cfg` argument.
Backtraces, and the compilation of libbacktrace for asmjs, are disabled.
This port doesn't use jemalloc so, like pnacl, it disables jemalloc *for all targets*
in the configure file.
It disables stack protection.
Without this patch, `compiler-rt` fails to build when the `CFLAGS` environment variable contains a `-Werror=*` flag (for example `-Werror=format-security`).
The build system was removing only the `-Werror` part from the flag, thus passing an unrecognized `=*` (for example `=format-security`) argument to gcc.
This pull request adds support for [Illumos](http://illumos.org/)-based operating systems: SmartOS, OpenIndiana, and others. For now it's x86-64 only, as I'm not sure if 32-bit installations are widespread. This PR is based on #28589 by @potatosalad, and also closes#21000, #25845, and #25846.
Required changes in libc are already merged: https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/libc/pull/138
Here's a snapshot required to build a stage0 compiler:
https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/nbaksalyar/rustc-sunos-snapshot.tar.gz
It passes all checks from `make check`.
There are some changes I'm not quite sure about, e.g. macro usage in `src/libstd/num/f64.rs` and `DirEntry` structure in `src/libstd/sys/unix/fs.rs`, so any comments on how to rewrite it better would be greatly appreciated.
Also, LLVM configure script might need to be patched to build it successfully, or a pre-built libLLVM should be used. Some details can be found here: https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=25409
Thanks!

Currently any compilation to MIPS spits out the warning:
'generic' is not a recognized processor for this target (ignoring processor)
Doesn't make for a great user experience! We don't encounter this in the normal
bootstrap because the cpu/feature set are set by the makefiles. Instead let's
just propagate these to the defaults for the entire target all the time (still
overridable from the command line) and prevent warnings from being emitted by
default.
This target covers MIPS devices that run the trunk version of OpenWRT.
The x86_64-unknown-linux-musl target always links statically to C libraries. For
the mips(el)-unknown-linux-musl target, we opt for dynamic linking (like most of
other targets do) to keep binary size down.
As for the C compiler flags used in the build system, we use the same flags used
for the mips(el)-unknown-linux-gnu target.

I don't believe these test cases have served any purpose in years.
The shootout benchmarks are now upstreamed. A new benchmark suite
should rather be maintained out of tree.

These commits perform a few high-level changes with the goal of enabling i686 MSVC unwinding:
* LLVM is upgraded to pick up the new exception handling instructions and intrinsics for MSVC. This puts us somewhere along the 3.8 branch, but we should still be compatible with LLVM 3.7 for non-MSVC targets.
* All unwinding for MSVC targets (both 32 and 64-bit) are implemented in terms of this new LLVM support. I would like to also extend this to Windows GNU targets to drop the runtime dependencies we have on MinGW, but I'd like to land this first.
* Some tests were fixed up for i686 MSVC here and there where necessary. The full test suite should be passing now for that target.
In terms of landing this I plan to have this go through first, then verify that i686 MSVC works, then I'll enable `make check` on the bots for that target instead of just `make` as-is today.
Closes#25869
