rustc: Allow `#[no_mangle]` anywhere in a crate
This commit updates the compiler to allow the `#[no_mangle]` (and
`#[export_name]` attributes) to be located anywhere within a crate.
These attributes are unconditionally processed, causing the compiler to
always generate an exported symbol with the appropriate name.
After some discussion on #54135 it was found that not a great reason
this hasn't been allowed already, and it seems to match the behavior
that many expect! Previously the compiler would only export a
`#[no_mangle]` symbol if it were *publicly reachable*, meaning that it
itself is `pub` and it's otherwise publicly reachable from the root of
the crate. This new definition is that `#[no_mangle]` *is always
reachable*, no matter where it is in a crate or whether it has `pub` or
not.
This should make it much easier to declare an exported symbol with a
known and unique name, even when it's an internal implementation detail
of the crate itself. Note that these symbols will persist beyond LTO as
well, always making their way to the linker.
Along the way this commit removes the `private_no_mangle_functions` lint
(also for statics) as there's no longer any need to lint these
situations. Furthermore a good number of tests were updated now that
symbol visibility has been changed.
Closes#54135

Expand the documentation for the `std::sync` module
I've tried to expand the documentation for Rust's synchronization primitives. The module level documentation explains why synchronization is required when working with a multiprocessor system,
and then links to the appropiate structure in this module.
Fixes#29377, since this should be the last item on the checklist (documentation for `Atomic*` was fixed in #44854, but not ticked off the checklist).
std: Start implementing wasm32 atomics
This commit is an initial start at implementing the standard library for
wasm32-unknown-unknown with the experimental `atomics` feature enabled. None of
these changes will be visible to users of the wasm32-unknown-unknown target
because they all require recompiling the standard library. The hope with this is
that we can get this support into the standard library and start iterating on it
in-tree to enable experimentation.
Currently there's a few components in this PR:
* Atomic fences are disabled on wasm as there's no corresponding atomic op and
it's not clear yet what the convention should be, but this will change in the
future!
* Implementations of `Mutex`, `Condvar`, and `RwLock` were all added based on
the atomic intrinsics that wasm has.
* The `ReentrantMutex` and thread-local-storage implementations panic currently
as there's no great way to get a handle on the current thread's "id" yet.
Right now the wasm32 target with atomics is unfortunately pretty unusable,
requiring a lot of manual things here and there to actually get it operational.
This will likely continue to evolve as the story for atomics and wasm unfolds,
but we also need more LLVM support for some operations like custom `global`
directives for this to work best.
Add doc for impl From for Std Error
As part of issue #51430 (cc @skade).
I am not sure if it is going to a correct direction so put up here so that people can comment.
Fix Once perf regression
Because `call_once` is generic, but `is_completed` is not, we need
`#[inline]` annotation to allow LLVM to inline `is_completed` into
`call_once` in downstream crates.

Most of these will eventually be filled, but right now travis-ci enjoys
complaining about the fact that there's links that lead nowhere, so
they're gone. Hopefully someone remembers to re-add them later.

Switch wasm math symbols to their original names
The names `Math_*` were given to help undefined symbol messages indicate how to
implement them, but these are all implemented in compiler-rt now so there's no
need to rename them! This change should make it so wasm binaries by default, no
matter the math symbols used, will not have unresolved symbols.
