Avoid a panic in `set_output_capture` in the default panic handler
This avoid a panic in the default panic handler by not using `set_output_capture` as `OUTPUT_CAPTURE.with` may panic once `OUTPUT_CAPTURE` is dropped.
A new non-panicking `try_set_output_capture` variant of `set_output_capture` is added for use in the default panic handler.
Rename BoxMeUp to PanicPayload.
"BoxMeUp" is not very clear. Let's rename that to a description of what it actually represents: a panic payload.
This PR also renames the structs that implement this trait to have more descriptive names.

Implement rust-lang/compiler-team#578.
When an ICE is encountered on nightly releases, the new rustc panic
handler will also write the contents of the backtrace to disk. If any
`delay_span_bug`s are encountered, their backtrace is also added to the
file. The platform and rustc version will also be collected.
This changes the documentation of `std::panic::set_hook` and `take_hook` to better explain how the default panic hook works. In particular the fact that `take_hook` registers the default hook, rather than no hook at all, was missing from the docs.
After calling libc::fork, the child process tried to access
a TLS variable when processing a panic. This caused
a memory allocation which is UB in the child.
To prevent this from happening, the panic handler will
not access the TLS variable in case `panic::always_abort`
was called before.
Use const initializer for LOCAL_PANIC_COUNT
This reduces the size of the __getit function for LOCAL_PANIC_COUNT and should speed up accesses of LOCAL_PANIC_COUNT a bit.
This updates the standard library's documentation to use the new syntax. The
documentation is worthwhile to update as it should be more idiomatic
(particularly for features like this, which are nice for users to get acquainted
with). The general codebase is likely more hassle than benefit to update: it'll
hurt git blame, and generally updates can be done by folks updating the code if
(and when) that makes things more readable with the new format.
A few places in the compiler and library code are updated (mostly just due to
already having been done when this commit was first authored).
Print a helpful message if unwinding aborts when it reaches a nounwind function
This is implemented by routing `TerminatorKind::Abort` back through the panic handler, but with a special flag in the `PanicInfo` which indicates that the panic handler should *not* attempt to unwind the stack and should instead abort immediately.
This is useful for the planned change in https://github.com/rust-lang/lang-team/issues/97 which would make `Drop` impls `nounwind` by default.
### Code
```rust
#![feature(c_unwind)]
fn panic() {
panic!()
}
extern "C" fn nounwind() {
panic();
}
fn main() {
nounwind();
}
```
### Before
```
$ ./test
thread 'main' panicked at 'explicit panic', test.rs:4:5
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
Illegal instruction (core dumped)
```
### After
```
$ ./test
thread 'main' panicked at 'explicit panic', test.rs:4:5
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
thread 'main' panicked at 'panic in a function that cannot unwind', test.rs:7:1
