rustc: Rearchitect lints to be emitted more eagerly
In preparation for incremental compilation this commit refactors the lint
handling infrastructure in the compiler to be more "eager" and overall more
incremental-friendly. Many passes of the compiler can emit lints at various
points but before this commit all lints were buffered in a table to be emitted
at the very end of compilation. This commit changes these lints to be emitted
immediately during compilation using pre-calculated lint level-related data
structures.
Linting today is split into two phases, one set of "early" lints run on the
`syntax::ast` and a "late" set of lints run on the HIR. This commit moves the
"early" lints to running as late as possible in compilation, just before HIR
lowering. This notably means that we're catching resolve-related lints just
before HIR lowering. The early linting remains a pass very similar to how it was
before, maintaining context of the current lint level as it walks the tree.
Post-HIR, however, linting is structured as a method on the `TyCtxt` which
transitively executes a query to calculate lint levels. Each request to lint on
a `TyCtxt` will query the entire crate's 'lint level data structure' and then go
from there about whether the lint should be emitted or not.
The query depends on the entire HIR crate but should be very quick to calculate
(just a quick walk of the HIR) and the red-green system should notice that the
lint level data structure rarely changes, and should hopefully preserve
incrementality.
Overall this resulted in a pretty big change to the test suite now that lints
are emitted much earlier in compilation (on-demand vs only at the end). This in
turn necessitated the addition of many `#![allow(warnings)]` directives
throughout the compile-fail test suite and a number of updates to the UI test
suite.

Fixed mutable vars being marked used when they weren't
#### NB : bootstrapping is slow on my machine, even with `keep-stage` - fixes for occurances in the current codebase are <s>in the pipeline</s> done. This PR is being put up for review of the fix of the issue.
Fixes#43526, Fixes#30280, Fixes#25049
### Issue
Whenever the compiler detected a mutable deref being used mutably, it marked an associated value as being used mutably as well. In the case of derefencing local variables which were mutable references, this incorrectly marked the reference itself being used mutably, instead of its contents - with the consequence of making the following code emit no warnings
```
fn do_thing<T>(mut arg : &mut T) {
... // don't touch arg - just deref it to access the T
}
```
### Fix
Make dereferences not be counted as a mutable use, but only when they're on borrows on local variables.
#### Why not on things other than local variables?
* Whenever you capture a variable in a closure, it gets turned into a hidden reference - when you use it in the closure, it gets dereferenced. If the closure uses the variable mutably, that is actually a mutable use of the thing being dereffed to, so it has to be counted.
* If you deref a mutable `Box` to access the contents mutably, you are using the `Box` mutably - so it has to be counted.

Add MIR Validate statement
This adds statements to MIR that express when types are to be validated (following [Types as Contracts](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/types-as-contracts/5562)). Obviously nothing is stabilized, and in fact a `-Z` flag has to be passed for behavior to even change at all.
This is meant to make experimentation with Types as Contracts in miri possible. The design is definitely not final.

rustc: Add some build scripts for librustc crates
This commit adds some "boilerplate" build scripts to librustc/libsyntax crates
to declare dependencies on various environment variables that are configured
throughout the build. Cargo recently gained the ability to depend on environment
variables in build scripts which can help trigger recompilation of a crate.
This should fix weird bugs where after you make a commit or a few days later
you'll get weird "not built with the same compiler" errors hopefully.

rustc: Implement the #[global_allocator] attribute
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/1974
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.

Prior to this PR, when we aborted because a "critical pass" failed, we
displayed the number of errors from that critical pass. While that's the
number of errors that caused compilation to abort in *that place*,
that's not what people really want to know. Instead, always report the
total number of errors, and don't bother to track the number of errors
from the last pass that failed.
This changes the compiler driver API to handle errors more smoothly,
and therefore is a compiler-api-[breaking-change].
Fixes#42793.
Turn `elaborate_drops` and `rustc_peek` implementations into MIR
passes that also live in `rustc_mir` crate.
Rewire things so `rustc_driver` uses the `ElaborateDrops` from
`rustc_mir` crate.
This commit deletes the in-tree `getopts` crate in favor of the crates.io-based
`getopts` crate. The main difference here is with a new builder-style API, but
otherwise everything else remains relatively standard.
MIR EndRegion Statements (was MIR dataflow for Borrows)
This PR adds an `EndRegion` statement to MIR (where the `EndRegion` statement is what terminates a borrow).
An earlier version of the PR implemented a dataflow analysis on borrow expressions, but I am now factoring that into a follow-up PR so that reviewing this one is easier. (And also because there are some revisions I want to make to that dataflow code, but I want this PR to get out of WIP status...)
This is a baby step towards MIR borrowck. I just want to get the review process going while I independently work on the remaining steps.
save-analysis: remove a lot of stuff
This commits us to the JSON format and the more general def/ref style of output, rather than also supporting different data formats for different data structures. This does not affect the RLS at all, but will break any clients of the CSV form - AFAIK there are none (beyond a few of my own toy projects) - DXR stopped working long ago.
r? @eddyb
Instead of suppressing only trait errors that are "exact duplicates",
display only the "most high-level" error when there are multiple trait
errors with the same span that imply each-other.
e.g. when there are both `[closure]: Fn` and `[closure]: FnOnce`, omit
displaying the `[closure]: FnOnce` bound.
Build instruction profiler runtime as part of compiler-rt
r? @alexcrichton
This is #38608 with some fixes.
Still missing:
- [x] testing with profiler enabled on some builders (on which ones? Should I add the option to some of the already existing configurations, or create a new configuration?);
- [x] enabling distribution (on which builders?);
- [x] documentation.
