rustc: Enable embedding LLVM bitcode for iOS
This commit updates rustc to embed bitcode in each object file generated by
default when compiling for iOS. This was determined in #35968 as a step
towards better compatibility with the iOS toolchain, so let's give it a spin and
see how it turns out!
Note that this also updates the `cc` dependency which should propagate this
change of embedding bitcode for C dependencies as well.

Currently rustc isn't always the best at producing deterministic builds of a
crate when the source directory of a crate is changed. This is happening due to
what appears two different sources:
* First the `-L` paths passed to rustc are hashed into the crate hash. These
paths through Cargo are typically absolute paths that can vary if the build
directory changes.
* Next the paths passed to `--extern` are also hashed which like `-L` can change
if the build directory changes.
This commit fixes these two sources of nondeterminism by ensuring that avoiding
tracking the hashes of these arguments on the command line. For `-L` paths
they're either related to loading crates (whose hashes are tracked elsewhere) or
native librarise used in the linking phase (which isn't incremental). The
`--extern` paths are similar in that they're related to crate resolution which
is already tracked independently of the command line arguments.
Closes#48019
Remove experimental -Zremap-path-prefix-from/to, and replace it with
the stabilized --remap-path-prefix=from=to variant.
This is an implementation for issue of #41555.
This commit adds the ability for rustc to not run `dsymutil` by default
on OSX. A new codegen option, `-Z run-dsymutil=no`, was added to specify
that `dsymutil` should *not* run and instead the compiler should
unconditionally keep the object files around in a compilation if
necessary for debug information.

NLL: Limit two-phase borrows to autoref-introduced borrows
This imposes a restriction on two-phase borrows so that it only applies to autoref-introduced borrows.
The goal is to ensure that our initial deployment of two-phase borrows is very conservative. We want it to still cover the `v.push(v.len());` example, but we do not want it to cover cases like `let imm = &v; let mu = &mut v; mu.push(imm.len());`
(Why do we want it to be conservative? Because when you are not conservative, then the results you get, at least with the current analysis, are tightly coupled to details of the MIR construction that we would rather remain invisible to the end user.)
Fix#46747
I decided, for this PR, to add a debug-flag `-Z two-phase-beyond-autoref`, to re-enable the more general approach. But my intention here is *not* that we would eventually turn on that debugflag by default; the main reason I added it was that I thought it was useful for writing tests to be able to write source that looks like desugared MIR.
Added `-Z two-phase-beyond-autoref` to bring back old behavior (mainly
to allow demonstration of desugared examples).
Updated tests to use aforementioned flag when necessary. (But in each
case where I added the flag, I made sure to also include a revision
without the flag so that one can readily see what the actual behavior
we expect is for the initial deployment of NLL.)
Implement RFC 2052 (Epochs)
This adds -Zepochs and uses it for tyvar_behind_raw_pointer (#46906)
When we move this to --epoch=XXX, we'll need to gate the 2018 epoch on nightly, but not the 2015 one. I can make these changes here itself though it's kinda pointless given that the entire flag is nightly-only.

Warn when rustc output conflicts with existing directories
When the compiled executable would conflict with a directory, display a
rustc error instead of a verbose and potentially-confusing linker
error. This is a usability improvement, and doesn’t actually change
behaviour with regards to compilation success. This addresses the
concern in #35887. Fixes#13098.
Add approximate suggestions for rustfix
This adds `span_approximate_suggestion()` that lets you emit a
suggestion marked as "non-machine applicable" in the JSON output. UI
users see no difference. This is for when rustc and clippy wish to
emit suggestions which will make sense to the reader (e.g. they may
have placeholders like `<type>`) but are not source-applicable, so that
rustfix/etc can ignore these.

This commit primarily adds the ability to control what kind of LTO happens when
rustc performs LTO, namely allowing values to be specified to the `-C lto`
option, such as `-C lto=thin` and `-C lto=fat`. (where "fat" is the previous
kind of LTO, throw everything in one giant module)
Along the way this also refactors a number of fields which store information
about whether LTO/ThinLTO are enabled to unify them all into one field through
which everything is dispatched, hopefully removing a number of special cases
throughout.
This is intended to help mitigate #47409 but will require a backport as well,
and this would unfortunately need to be an otherwise insta-stable option.
