try to infer linker flavor from linker name and vice versa
This is a second take on PR #50359 that implements the logic proposed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/50359#pullrequestreview-116663121
With this change it would become possible to link `thumb*` binaries using GNU's LD on stable as `-C linker=arm-none-eabi-ld` would be enough to change both the linker and the linker flavor from their default values of `arm-none-eabi-gcc` and `gcc`.
To link `thumb*` binaries using rustc's LLD on stable `-Z linker-flavor` would need to be stabilized as `-C linker=rust-lld -Z linker-flavor=ld.lld` are both required to change the linker and the linker flavor, but this PR doesn't propose that. We would probably need some sort of stability guarantee around `rust-lld`'s name and availability to make linking with rustc's LLD truly stable.
With this change it would also be possible to link `thumb*` binaries using a system installed LLD on stable using the `-C linker=ld.lld` flag (provided that `ld.lld` is a symlink to the system installed LLD).

Implement Unsized Rvalues
This PR is the first step to implement RFC1909: unsized rvalues (#48055).
## Implemented
- `Sized` is removed for arguments and local bindings. (under `#![feature(unsized_locals)]`)
- Unsized locations are allowed in MIR
- Unsized places and operands are correctly translated at codegen
## Not implemented in this PR
- Additional `Sized` checks:
- tuple struct constructor (accidentally compiles now)
- closure arguments at closure generation (accidentally compiles now)
- upvars (ICEs now)
- Generating vtable for `fn method(self)` (ICEs now)
- VLAs: `[e; n]` where `n` isn't const
- Reduce unnecessary allocations
## Current status
- [x] Fix `__rust_probestack` (rust-lang-nursery/compiler-builtins#244)
- [x] Get the fix merged
- [x] `#![feature(unsized_locals)]`
- [x] Give it a tracking issue number
- [x] Lift sized checks in typeck and MIR-borrowck
- [ ] <del>Forbid `A(unsized-expr)`</del> will be another PR
- [x] Minimum working codegen
- [x] Add more examples and fill in unimplemented codegen paths
- [ ] <del>Loosen object-safety rules (will be another PR)</del>
- [ ] <del>Implement `Box<FnOnce>` (will be another PR)</del>
- [ ] <del>Reduce temporaries (will be another PR)</del>
Set more llvm function attributes for __rust_try
This shim is generated elsewhere in the compiler so this commit adds support to
ensure it goes through similar paths as the rest of the compiler to set llvm
function attributes like target features.

Originally added in #52887 this commit disables passing `--strip-debug` to LLD
when optimized. This bring back the original bug of emitting broken debuginfo
but currently it *also* strips the `name` section which makes it very difficult
to inspect the final binary. A real fix is happening at
https://reviews.llvm.org/D50729 and we can reevaluate once we've updated LLD to
have that commit.
rustc_codegen_llvm: Restore the closure env alloca hack for LLVM 5.
This hack was removed in #50949, but without it I found that building
`std` with full debuginfo would print many LLVM `DW_OP_LLVM_fragment`
errors, then die `LLVM ERROR: Failed to strip malformed debug info`.
It doesn't seem to be a problem for LLVM 6, so we can re-enable the hack
just for older LLVM.
This reverts commit da579ef75e.
Fixes#53204.

As explained by eddyb in #53221, "An &ArchiveChild doesn't point into the archive itself, it points to an owned object that itself points to the archive, and LLVMRustArchiveMemberNew copies the ArchiveChild (whereas the current signature suggests it keeps the &ArchiveChild)."
Cleanup to librustc::session and related code
No functional changes, just some cleanup.
This also creates the `rustc_fs_util` crate, but I can remove that change if desired. It felt a little odd to force crates to depend on librustc for some fs utilities; and also seemed good to generally keep the size of librustc lower (for compile times); fs_util will compile in parallel with essentially the first crate since it has no dependencies beyond std.
