See https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/566. The motivation for changing the default is to avoid downloading and building LLVM when someone runs `x build` before running `x setup`. The motivation for only doing it on `channel = "dev"` is to avoid breaking distros or users installing from source. It works because `dev` is also the default channel. The diff looks larger than it is; most of it is moving the `llvm` branch below the `rust` so `config.channel` is set. |

About bootstrap defaults
These defaults are intended to be a good starting point for working with x.py, with the understanding that no one set of defaults make sense for everyone.
They are still experimental, and we'd appreciate your help improving them! If you use a setting that's not in these defaults that you think others would benefit from, please file an issue or make a PR with the changes. Similarly, if one of these defaults doesn't match what you use personally, please open an issue to get it changed.
