Auto merge of #38165 - Yamakaky:better-backtrace, r=petrochenkov
Improve backtrace formating while panicking.

Fixes #37783.

Done:

- Fix alignment of file paths for better readability
- `RUST_BACKTRACE=full` prints all the informations (current behaviour)
- `RUST_BACKTRACE=(short|yes)` is the default and does:
  - Skip irrelevant frames at the beginning and the end
  - Remove function address
  - Remove the current directory from the absolute paths
  - Remove `::hfabe6541873` at the end of the symbols
- `RUST_BACKTRACE=(0|no)` disables the backtrace.
- `RUST_BACKTRACE=<everything else>` is equivalent to `short` for
  backward compatibility.
- doc
- More uniform printing across platforms.

Removed, TODO in a new PR:

- Remove path prefix for libraries and libstd

Example of short backtrace:
```rust
fn fail() {
    panic!();
}

fn main() {
    let closure = || fail();
    closure();
}
```
Short:
```
thread 'main' panicked at 'explicit panic', t.rs:2
Some details are omitted, run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=full` for a verbose backtrace.
stack backtrace:
   0: t::fail
            at ./t.rs:2
   1: t::main::{{closure}}
            at ./t.rs:6
   2: t::main
            at ./t.rs:7
```
Full:
```
