Allow invoking all help options at once Implements rust-lang/rust#150442 Help messages are printed in the order they are invoked, but only once (e.g. `--help -C help --help` prints regular help then codegen help). Lint groups (`-Whelp`) are always printed last due to necessarily coming later in the compiler pipeline. Adds `help` flags to `-C` and `-Z` to avoid an error in `build_session_options`. cc @bjorn3 [#t-compiler/major changes > Allow combining `--help -C help -Z help -… compiler-team#954 @ 💬](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/233931-t-compiler.2Fmajor-changes/topic/Allow.20combining.20.60--help.20-C.20help.20-Z.20help.20-.E2.80.A6.20compiler-team.23954/near/564358190) - this currently maintains the behaviour of unrecognized options always failing-fast, as this happens within `getopt`s parsing, before we can even check if help options are present. |

The driver crate is effectively the "main" function for the rust
compiler. It orchestrates the compilation process and "knits together"
the code from the other crates within rustc. This crate itself does
not contain any of the "main logic" of the compiler (though it does
have some code related to pretty printing or other minor compiler
options).
For more information about how the driver works, see the rustc dev guide.
