Rust's current mangling scheme depends on compiler internals; loses
information about generic parameters (and other things) which makes for
a worse experience when using external tools that need to interact with
Rust symbol names; is inconsistent; and can contain `.` characters
which aren't universally supported. Therefore, Rust has defined its own
symbol mangling scheme which is defined in terms of the Rust language,
not the compiler implementation; encodes information about generic
parameters in a reversible way; has a consistent definition; and
generates symbols that only use the characters `A-Z`, `a-z`, `0-9`, and
`_`.
Support for the new Rust symbol mangling scheme has been added to
upstream tools that will need to interact with Rust symbols (e.g.
debuggers).
This commit changes the default symbol mangling scheme from the legacy
scheme to the new Rust mangling scheme.

This adds a test for the cold attribute to verify that it actually does
something, and that it applies correctly in all the positions it is
expected to work.
