compiler: rename LayoutS to LayoutData
Bid `LayoutS` goodbye because it looks like a typo.
`LayoutS` is the last of the types that use the "`{TypeName}` is the interned type, `{TypeName}S` is the backing data that is interned" convention. This is pretty confusing to those not intimately familiar with the history of rustc's names for its types over time, and doubly so now that there are no other examples in the tree. Abolish this convention.

Correctly link the riscv32e platform support page.
Just a mistake during the iteration of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/130555 that was missed in review. Presumably the rv32e-none and rv32i-none pages eventually should get merged, but this is a relatively recent addition to the ISA definition so it is not clear the current RISCV Embedded group has the expertise on-hand... nor did it have their consent.

allow type-based search on foreign functions
fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/131804
preferably will be merged after #129708, but that may take a while to be approved due to being a new feature, whereas this is definitely a bug, and should be fixed.
(Big performance change) Do not run lints that cannot emit
Before this change, adding a lint was a difficult matter because it always had some overhead involved. This was because all lints would run, no matter their default level, or if the user had `#![allow]`ed them. This PR changes that. This change would improve both the Rust lint infrastructure and Clippy, but Clippy will see the most benefit, as it has about 900 registered lints (and growing!)
So yeah, with this little patch we filter all lints pre-linting, and remove any lint that is either:
- Manually `#![allow]`ed in the whole crate,
- Allowed in the command line, or
- Not manually enabled with `#[warn]` or similar, and its default level is `Allow`
As some lints **need** to run, this PR also adds **loadbearing lints**. On a lint declaration, you can use the ``@eval_always` = true` marker to label it as loadbearing. A loadbearing lint will never be filtered (it will always run)

Const stability checks v2
The const stability system has served us well ever since `const fn` were first stabilized. It's main feature is that it enforces *recursive* validity -- a stable const fn cannot internally make use of unstable const features without an explicit marker in the form of `#[rustc_allow_const_fn_unstable]`. This is done to make sure that we don't accidentally expose unstable const features on stable in a way that would be hard to take back. As part of this, it is enforced that a `#[rustc_const_stable]` can only call `#[rustc_const_stable]` functions. However, some problems have been coming up with increased usage:
- It is baffling that we have to mark private or even unstable functions as `#[rustc_const_stable]` when they are used as helpers in regular stable `const fn`, and often people will rather add `#[rustc_allow_const_fn_unstable]` instead which was not our intention.
- The system has several gaping holes: a private `const fn` without stability attributes whose inherited stability (walking up parent modules) is `#[stable]` is allowed to call *arbitrary* unstable const operations, but can itself be called from stable `const fn`. Similarly, `#[allow_internal_unstable]` on a macro completely bypasses the recursive nature of the check.
Fundamentally, the problem is that we have *three* disjoint categories of functions, and not enough attributes to distinguish them:
1. const-stable functions
2. private/unstable functions that are meant to be callable from const-stable functions
3. functions that can make use of unstable const features
Functions in the first two categories cannot use unstable const features and they can only call functions from the first two categories.
This PR implements the following system:
- `#[rustc_const_stable]` puts functions in the first category. It may only be applied to `#[stable]` functions.
- `#[rustc_const_unstable]` by default puts functions in the third category. The new attribute `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` can be added to such a function to move it into the second category.
- `const fn` without a const stability marker are in the second category if they are still unstable. They automatically inherit the feature gate for regular calls, it can now also be used for const-calls.
Also, all the holes mentioned above have been closed. There's still one potential hole that is hard to avoid, which is when MIR building automatically inserts calls to a particular function in stable functions -- which happens in the panic machinery. Those need to be manually marked `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` to be sure they follow recursive const stability. But that's a fairly rare and special case so IMO it's fine.
The net effect of this is that a `#[unstable]` or unmarked function can be constified simply by marking it as `const fn`, and it will then be const-callable from stable `const fn` and subject to recursive const stability requirements. If it is publicly reachable (which implies it cannot be unmarked), it will be const-unstable under the same feature gate. Only if the function ever becomes `#[stable]` does it need a `#[rustc_const_unstable]` or `#[rustc_const_stable]` marker to decide if this should also imply const-stability.
Adding `#[rustc_const_unstable]` is only needed for (a) functions that need to use unstable const lang features (including intrinsics), or (b) `#[stable]` functions that are not yet intended to be const-stable. Adding `#[rustc_const_stable]` is only needed for functions that are actually meant to be directly callable from stable const code. `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` is used to mark intrinsics as const-callable and for `#[rustc_const_unstable]` functions that are actually called from other, exposed-on-stable `const fn`. No other attributes are required.
Also see the updated dev-guide at https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc-dev-guide/pull/2098.
I think in the future we may want to tweak this further, so that in the hopefully common case where a public function's const-stability just exactly mirrors its regular stability, we never have to add any attribute. But right now, once the function is stable this requires `#[rustc_const_stable]`.
### Open question
There is one point I could see we might want to do differently, and that is putting `#[rustc_const_unstable]` functions (but not intrinsics) in category 2 by default, and requiring an extra attribute for `#[rustc_const_not_exposed_on_stable]` or so. This would require a bunch of extra annotations, but would have the advantage that turning a `#[rustc_const_unstable]` into `#[rustc_const_stable]` will never change the way the function is const-checked. Currently, we often discover in the const stabilization PR that a function needs some other unstable const things, and then we rush to quickly deal with that. In this alternative universe, we'd work towards getting rid of the `rustc_const_not_exposed_on_stable` before stabilization, and once that is done stabilization becomes a trivial matter. `#[rustc_const_stable_indirect]` would then only be used for intrinsics.
I think I like this idea, but might want to do it in a follow-up PR, as it will need a whole bunch of annotations in the standard library. Also, we probably want to convert all const intrinsics to the "new" form (`#[rustc_intrinsic]` instead of an `extern` block) before doing this to avoid having to deal with two different ways of declaring intrinsics.

Run the full stage 2 `run-make` test suite in `x86_64-gnu-debug`
Run the full `run-make` test suite in the `x86_64-gnu-debug` CI job. This is currently the *only* CI job where `//@ needs-force-clang-based-test` will be satisfied, so some `run-make` tests will literally never be run otherwise. Before this PR, the CI job only ran `run-make` tests which contains the substring `clang` in its test name, which is both (1) a footgun because it's very easy to forget and (2) it masks tests that would otherwise fail (even failing to compile) because the test is skipped if doesn't have a `clang` in its test name.
With the environment of `x86_64-gnu-debug`, two `run-make` tests failed before this PR:
1. `tests/run-make/issue-84395-lto-embed-bitcode/rmake.rs`: this was broken for a long time because `objcopy` in llvm bin tools was renamed to `llvm-objcopy`. This test was converted into a rmake.rs test, rather straight forward.
2. `tests/run-make/cross-lang-lto-riscv-abi/rmake.rs`: this was broken for a long time and never worked. The old version inspected human-readable output of `llvm-readobj --file-header` looking for substring `EF_RISCV_FLOAT_ABI_DOUBLE`, but the human-readable output will only contain something like `Flags: 0x5, RVC, double-float ABI`, hence it will never match. This test was fixed by instead using the `object` crate to actually decode the ELF headers looking for the specific `e_flags` based on reading the RISCV ELF psABI docs.
This PR is best reviewed commit-by-commit, two commits setup the support library for functionality and two commits are for each of the failing `run-make` tests.
