Build `rustc` with a single CGU on x64 Linux
This PR adds the `rust.codegen-units=1` setting when compiling the 64-bit Linux `rustc` artifact (the one used for try builds and Linux rustup distribution). This had mixed results in the past, however after the bump to LLVM 17, the results now seem pretty [incredible](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/115554#issuecomment-1706518199). Instruction counts, cycles, wall time, max RSS and even artifact sizes see large improvements.
The last [try build](https://github.com/rust-lang-ci/rust/actions/runs/6077686494/job/16487768049) with this setting took 1h 8m, which is basically the same duration for try builds that we have seen recently. So there shouldn't be any large hit to CI/build time.
I hope that this could potentially also reduce codegen noise of `rustc` a little bit, since small changes within a single `rustc` crate should no longer perturb optimizations because of CGU movement. We still do cross-crate LTO, so it won't eliminate it though.

Update location of `auxiliary/lint-plugin-test.rs`
**PR Summary**:
PR updates the location of `auxiliary/lint-plugin-test.rs` file which was moved in PR #110478.
warn if source is not either a git clone or a dist tarball
When the repository is downloaded directly via HTTP(as in #115041), builds may fail due to missing submodules.
This PR adds a check that warns people in such cases.
Partially outline code inside the panic! macro
This outlines code inside the panic! macro in some cases. This is split out from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/115562 to exclude changes to rustc.
Add integration for new bors
I think that the best way to test the [new bors](https://github.com/rust-lang/bors/tree/staging) implementation is to start using it in the wild. This PR integrates this repo with the bot (some more integration has to be done externally through GitHub). For now, I would suggest to integrate it e.g. under the ``@borsnew`` name, and start testing its try build functionality. The bot cannot do merges or approvals yet, and it doesn't touch `master` in any way, so hopefully it shouldn't cause any troubles for this repo.

Pass `-jN` from Make to `BOOTSTRAP_ARGS`
Enables the same functionality as `x -jN` in Make by passing the `-jN` arg from Make to the `BOOTSTRAP_ARGS` if it is specified.
Assorted improvements for `rustc_middle::mir::traversal`

I'm not _entirely_ sure about all changes, although I do like all of them. If you'd like I can drop some commits. Best reviewed on a commit-by-commit basis, I think, since they are fairly isolated.
rustdoc: speed up processing of cross-crate fns to fix a perf regression
* The first commit doesn't affect perf but get's rid of a `.clone()` and a bunch of lines of code. I can drop it if you'd like me to
* The second commit, *“reduce the amount of `asyncness` query executions”*, addresses the perf regression introduced in #116084

Prototype using const generic for simd_shuffle IDX array
cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/85229
r? `@workingjubilee` on the design
TLDR: there is now a `fn simd_shuffle_generic<T, U, const IDX: &'static [u32]>(x: T, y: T) -> U;` intrinsic that allows replacing
```rust
simd_shuffle(a, b, const { stuff })
```
with
```rust
simd_shuffle_generic::<_, _, {&stuff}>(a, b)
```
which makes the compiler implementations much simpler, if we manage to at some point eliminate `simd_shuffle`.
There are some issues with this today though (can't do math without bubbling it up in the generic arguments). With this change, we can start porting the simple cases and get better data on the others.
More fixes for running the test suite on a bare metal target
This PR adds more fixes needed to run the test suite on bare metal targets (in this case, without unwinding and with static relocations). There is no CI job exercising tests without unwinds, but I can confirm this worked in Ferrocene's CI.
ci: upgrade to crosstool-ng 1.26.0
This PR upgrades our builders from crosstool-ng 1.25.0 to 1.26.0. Except for LoongArch64 and RISC-V 64, which have minor version upgrades, other architectures have not changed.
Clippy backport: Move needless_raw_string_hashes to pedantic
Really small backport this time. Context: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/11415#issuecomment-1739880932
I'd rather get this in 1.74 than waiting another release cycle.

Update windows ffi bindings
Bump `windows-bindgen` to version 0.51.1. This brings with it some changes to the generated FFI bindings, but little that affects the code.
One change that does have more of an impact is `SOCKET` being `usize` instead of either `u64` or `u32` (as is used in std's public `SOCKET` type). However, it's now easy enough to abstract over that difference.
Finally I added a few new bindings that are likely to be used in pending PRs, mostly to make sure they're ok with the new metadata.
