Rollup merge of #108898 - ferrocene:pa-libc-check-cfg, r=Mark-Simulacrum

Set `LIBC_CHECK_CFG=1` when building Rust code in bootstrap

Downstream forks of the Rust compiler might want to use a custom `libc` to add support for targets that are not yet available upstream. Adding a patch to replace `libc` with a custom one would cause compilation errors though, because Cargo would interpret the custom `libc` as part of the workspace, and apply the check-cfg lints on it.

Since https://github.com/rust-lang/libc/pull/3037, the `libc` build script emits check-cfg flags only when the `LIBC_CHECK_CFG` environment variable is set, so this PR allows the use of custom `libc`s.
