codegen: clarify some variable names around function calls I looked at rust-lang/rust#145932 to try to understand how it works, and quickly got lost in the variable names -- what refers to the caller, what to the callee? So here's my attempt at making those more clear. Hopefully the new names are correct.^^ Cc @JamieCunliffe |

The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR,
and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code
that runs towards the end of the compilation process.
For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
