[9/n] rustc: move type information out of AdtDef and TraitDef.
_This is part of a series ([prev](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/37688) | [next]()) of patches designed to rework rustc into an out-of-order on-demand pipeline model for both better feature support (e.g. [MIR-based](https://github.com/solson/miri) early constant evaluation) and incremental execution of compiler passes (e.g. type-checking), with beneficial consequences to IDE support as well.
If any motivation is unclear, please ask for additional PR description clarifications or code comments._

Both `AdtDef` and `TraitDef` contained type information (field types, generics and predicates) which was required to create them, preventing their use before that type information exists, or in the case of field types, *mutation* was required, leading to a variance-magicking implementation of `ivar`s.
This PR takes that information out and the resulting cleaner setup could even eventually end up merged with HIR, because, just like `AssociatedItem` before it, there's no dependency on types anymore.
(With one exception, variant discriminants should probably be moved into their own map later.)
They don't implement FnLikeNode anymore, instead are handled differently
further up in the call tree. Also, keep less information (just def ids
for the args).
Separate impl items from the parent impl
This change separates impl item bodies out of the impl itself. This gives incremental more resolution. In so doing, it refactors how the visitors work, and cleans up a bit of the collect/check logic (mostly by moving things out of collect that didn't really belong there, because they were just checking conditions).
However, this is not as effective as I expected, for a kind of frustrating reason. In particular, when invoking `foo.bar()` you still wind up with dependencies on private items. The problem is that the method resolution code scans that list for methods with the name `bar` -- and this winds up touching *all* the methods, even private ones.
I can imagine two obvious ways to fix this:
- separating fn bodies from fn sigs (#35078, currently being pursued by @flodiebold)
- a more aggressive model of incremental that @michaelwoerister has been advocating, in which we hash the intermediate results (e.g., the outputs of collect) so that we can see that the intermediate result hasn't changed, even if a particular impl item has changed.
So all in all I'm not quite sure whether to land this or not. =) It still seems like it has to be a win in some cases, but not with the test cases we have just now. I can try to gin up some test cases, but I'm not sure if they will be totally realistic. On the other hand, some of the early refactorings to the visitor trait seem worthwhile to me regardless.
cc #36349 -- well, this is basically a fix for that issue, I guess

NB: Based atop of @eddyb's PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/37402; don't land until that lands.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1721] which adds a new target feature
to the compiler, `crt-static`, which can be used to select how the C runtime for
a target is linked. Most targets dynamically linke the C runtime by default with
the notable exception of some of the musl targets.
[RFC 1721]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1721-crt-static.md
This commit first adds the new target-feature, `crt-static`. If enabled, then
the `cfg(target_feature = "crt-static")` will be available. Targets like musl
will have this enabled by default. This feature can be controlled through the
standard target-feature interface, `-C target-feature=+crt-static` or
`-C target-feature=-crt-static`.
Next this adds an gated and unstable `#[link(cfg(..))]` feature to enable the
`crt-static` semantics we want with libc. The exact behavior of this attribute
is a little squishy, but it's intended to be a forever-unstable
implementation detail of the liblibc crate.
Specifically the `#[link(cfg(..))]` annotation means that the `#[link]`
directive is only active in a compilation unit if that `cfg` value is satisfied.
For example when compiling an rlib, these directives are just encoded and
ignored for dylibs, and all staticlibs are continued to be put into the rlib as
usual. When placing that rlib into a staticlib, executable, or dylib, however,
the `cfg` is evaluated *as if it were defined in the final artifact* and the
library is decided to be linked or not.
Essentially, what'll happen is:
* On MSVC with `-C target-feature=-crt-static`, the `msvcrt.lib` library will be
linked to.
* On MSVC with `-C target-feature=+crt-static`, the `libcmt.lib` library will be
linked to.
* On musl with `-C target-feature=-crt-static`, the object files in liblibc.rlib
are removed and `-lc` is passed instead.
* On musl with `-C target-feature=+crt-static`, the object files in liblibc.rlib
are used and `-lc` is not passed.
This commit does **not** include an update to the liblibc module to implement
these changes. I plan to do that just after the 1.14.0 beta release is cut to
ensure we get ample time to test this feature.

rustc: Rename rustc_macro to proc_macro
This commit blanket renames the `rustc_macro` infrastructure to `proc_macro`,
which reflects the general consensus of #35900. A follow up PR to Cargo will be
required to purge the `rustc-macro` name as well.

Previously the `env!("RUSTC_VERSION")` requirement would break the
"Documenting rustc_metadata" stage of the rustc build, since that
environment variable is only defined during the main build.
Now a target can define its panic strategy in its specification. If a
user doesn't specify a panic strategy via the command line, i.e. '-C
panic', then the compiler will use the panic strategy defined by the
target specification.
Custom targets can pick their panic strategy via the "panic-strategy"
field of their target specification JSON file. If omitted in the
specification, the strategy defaults to "unwind".
