Replace feature(never_type) with feature(exhaustive_patterns).
feature(exhaustive_patterns) only covers the pattern-exhaustives checks
that used to be covered by feature(never_type)
This commit imports the LLD project from LLVM to serve as the default linker for
the `wasm32-unknown-unknown` target. The `binaryen` submoule is consequently
removed along with "binaryen linker" support in rustc.
Moving to LLD brings with it a number of benefits for wasm code:
* LLD is itself an actual linker, so there's no need to compile all wasm code
with LTO any more. As a result builds should be *much* speedier as LTO is no
longer forcibly enabled for all builds of the wasm target.
* LLD is quickly becoming an "official solution" for linking wasm code together.
This, I believe at least, is intended to be the main supported linker for
native code and wasm moving forward. Picking up support early on should help
ensure that we can help LLD identify bugs and otherwise prove that it works
great for all our use cases!
* Improvements to the wasm toolchain are currently primarily focused around LLVM
and LLD (from what I can tell at least), so it's in general much better to be
on this bandwagon for bugfixes and new features.
* Historical "hacks" like `wasm-gc` will soon no longer be necessary, LLD
will [natively implement][gc] `--gc-sections` (better than `wasm-gc`!) which
means a postprocessor is no longer needed to show off Rust's "small wasm
binary size".
LLD is added in a pretty standard way to rustc right now. A new rustbuild target
was defined for building LLD, and this is executed when a compiler's sysroot is
being assembled. LLD is compiled against the LLVM that we've got in tree, which
means we're currently on the `release_60` branch, but this may get upgraded in
the near future!
LLD is placed into rustc's sysroot in a `bin` directory. This is similar to
where `gcc.exe` can be found on Windows. This directory is automatically added
to `PATH` whenever rustc executes the linker, allowing us to define a `WasmLd`
linker which implements the interface that `wasm-ld`, LLD's frontend, expects.
Like Emscripten the LLD target is currently only enabled for Tier 1 platforms,
notably OSX/Windows/Linux, and will need to be installed manually for compiling
to wasm on other platforms. LLD is by default turned off in rustbuild, and
requires a `config.toml` option to be enabled to turn it on.
Finally the unstable `#![wasm_import_memory]` attribute was also removed as LLD
has a native option for controlling this.

Support parentheses in patterns under feature gate
This is a prerequisite for any other extensions to pattern syntax - `|` with multiple patterns, type ascription, `..PAT` in slice patterns.
Closes https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/554
You can now choose between the following:
- `#[unwind(allowed)]`
- `#[unwind(aborts)]`
Per rust-lang/rust#48251, the default is `#[unwind(allowed)]`, though
I think we should change this eventually.
Correct a few stability attributes
* `core_float_bits`, `duration_core`, `path_component_asref`, and `repr_align` were stabalized in 1.25.0 not 1.24.0.
* Impls for `NonNull` involving unstable things should remain unstable.
* `Duration` should remain stable since 1.3.0 so it appears correctly in the `std` docs.
* `cursor_mut_vec` is an impl on only stable things so should be marked stable.
Unfortunately left out it means that when the `#![feature(proc_macro)]` flag is
in effect it fails to find `rustc_args_required_const` for expansion. This
version, however, is verified to work with stdsimd's requirements!
Stabilize feature(match_beginning_vert)
With this feature stabilized, match expressions can optionally have a `|` at the beginning of each arm.

r? @eddyb for the functional changes. The bulk of the PR is error messages and docs, might be good to have a doc person look over those.

Remove deprecated unstable attribute #[simd]
The `#[simd]` attribute has been deprecated since c8b6d5b23c back in 2015. Any nightly crates using it have had ample time to switch to `#[repr(simd)]`, and if they didn't they're likely broken by now anyway.
