Rollup merge of #140152 - xizheyin:issue-140102, r=jieyouxu
Unify the format of rustc cli flags

As mentioned in #140102, I unified the format of rustc CLI flags.

I use the following rules:
1. `<param>`: Indicates a required parameter
2. `[param]`: Indicates an optional parameter
3. `|`: Indicates a mutually exclusive option
4. `*`: a list element with description

Current output:
```bash
Usage: rustc [OPTIONS] INPUT

Options:
    -h, --help          Display this message
        --cfg <SPEC>    Configure the compilation environment.
                        SPEC supports the syntax `<NAME>[="<VALUE>"]`.
        --check-cfg <SPEC>
                        Provide list of expected cfgs for checking
    -L [<KIND>=]<PATH>  Add a directory to the library search path. The
                        optional KIND can be one of
                        <dependency|crate|native|framework|all> (default:
                        all).
    -l [<KIND>[:<MODIFIERS>]=]<NAME>[:<RENAME>]
                        Link the generated crate(s) to the specified native
                        library NAME. The optional KIND can be one of
                        <static|framework|dylib> (default: dylib).
                        Optional comma separated MODIFIERS
                        <bundle|verbatim|whole-archive|as-needed>
                        may be specified each with a prefix of either '+' to
                        enable or '-' to disable.
        --crate-type <bin|lib|rlib|dylib|cdylib|staticlib|proc-macro>
                        Comma separated list of types of crates
                        for the compiler to emit
        --crate-name <NAME>
                        Specify the name of the crate being built
        --edition <2015|2018|2021|2024|future>
                        Specify which edition of the compiler to use when
                        compiling code. The default is 2015 and the latest
                        stable edition is 2024.
        --emit <TYPE>[=<FILE>]
                        Comma separated list of types of output for the
                        compiler to emit.
                        Each TYPE has the default FILE name:
                        * asm - CRATE_NAME.s
                        * llvm-bc - CRATE_NAME.bc
                        * dep-info - CRATE_NAME.d
                        * link - (platform and crate-type dependent)
                        * llvm-ir - CRATE_NAME.ll
                        * metadata - libCRATE_NAME.rmeta
                        * mir - CRATE_NAME.mir

                        * thin-link-bitcode - CRATE_NAME.indexing.o
        --print <INFO>[=<FILE>]
                        Compiler information to print on stdout (or to a file)
                        INFO may be one of
                        <all-target-specs-json|calling-conventions|cfg|check-cfg|code-models|crate-name|crate-root-lint-levels|deployment-target|file-names|host-tuple|link-args|native-static-libs|relocation-models|split-debuginfo|stack-protector-strategies|supported-crate-types|sysroot|target-cpus|target-features|target-libdir|target-list|target-spec-json|tls-models>.
    -g                  Equivalent to -C debuginfo=2
    -O                  Equivalent to -C opt-level=3
    -o <FILENAME>       Write output to FILENAME
        --out-dir <DIR> Write output to compiler-chosen filename in DIR
        --explain <OPT> Provide a detailed explanation of an error message
        --test          Build a test harness
        --target <TARGET>
                        Target triple for which the code is compiled
    -A, --allow <LINT>  Set lint allowed
    -W, --warn <LINT>   Set lint warnings
        --force-warn <LINT>
                        Set lint force-warn
    -D, --deny <LINT>   Set lint denied
    -F, --forbid <LINT> Set lint forbidden
        --cap-lints <LEVEL>
                        Set the most restrictive lint level. More restrictive
                        lints are capped at this level
    -C, --codegen <OPT>[=<VALUE>]
                        Set a codegen option
    -V, --version       Print version info and exit
    -v, --verbose       Use verbose output

Additional help:
    -C help             Print codegen options
    -W help             Print 'lint' options and default settings
    -Z help             Print unstable compiler options
    --help -v           Print the full set of options rustc accepts

This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.

Why Rust?

  • Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.

  • Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.

  • Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
