This commit deletes the `alloc_system` crate from the standard
distribution. This unstable crate is no longer needed in the modern
stable global allocator world, but rather its functionality is folded
directly into the standard library. The standard library was already the
only stable location to access this crate, and as a result this should
not affect any stable code.
Rename sanitizer runtime libraries on OSX
Currently we ship sanitizer libraries as they're built, but these names
unfortunately conflict with the names of the sanitizer libraries
installed on the system. If a crate, for example, links in C code that
wants to use the system sanitizer and the Rust code doesn't use
sanitizers at all, then using `cargo` may accidentally pull in the
Rust-installed sanitizer library due to a conflict in names.
This change is intended to be entirely transparent for Rust users of
sanitizers, it should only hopefully improve our story with other users!
Closes#54134

This commit is an attempted fix at #50887. It was noticed that on that issue
we're building both x86_64 and i386 versions of libraries, but we only actually
need the x86_64 versions! This hopes that the build race condition exhibited
in #50887 is connected to building both architectures and/or building a lot of
libraries, so this should help us build precisely what we need and no more.
This PR is an implementation of [RFC 1974] which specifies a new method of
defining a global allocator for a program. This obsoletes the old
`#![allocator]` attribute and also removes support for it.
[RFC 1974]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/197
The new `#[global_allocator]` attribute solves many issues encountered with the
`#![allocator]` attribute such as composition and restrictions on the crate
graph itself. The compiler now has much more control over the ABI of the
allocator and how it's implemented, allowing much more freedom in terms of how
this feature is implemented.

ASan and TSan are supported on macOS, and this commit enables their
support.
The sanitizers are always built as *.dylib on Apple platforms, so they
cannot be statically linked into the corresponding `rustc_?san.rlib`. The
dylibs are directly copied to `lib/rustlib/x86_64-apple-darwin/lib/`
instead.
Note, although Xcode also ships with their own copies of ASan/TSan dylibs,
we cannot use them due to version mismatch.
There is a caveat: the sanitizer libraries are linked as @rpath, so the
user needs to additionally pass `-C rpath`:
rustc -Z sanitizer=address -C rpath file.rs
^~~~~~~~
Otherwise there will be a runtime error:
dyld: Library not loaded: @rpath/libclang_rt.asan_osx_dynamic.dylib
Referenced from: /path/to/executable
Reason: image not found
Abort trap: 6
The next commit includes a temporary change in compiler to force the linker
to emit a usable @rpath.
Now that we've also updated cargo's release process this commit also changes the
download location of Cargo from Cargos archives back to the static.r-l.o
archives. This should ensure that the Cargo download is the exact Cargo paired
with the rustc that we release.
