aarch64 softfloat target: always pass floats in int registers
This is a part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/131058: on softfloat aarch64 targets, the float registers may be unavailable. And yet, LLVM will happily use them to pass float types if the corresponding target features are enabled. That's a problem as it means enabling/disabling `neon` instructions can change the ABI.
Other targets have a `soft-float` target feature that forces the use of the soft-float ABI no matter whether float registers are enabled or not; aarch64 has nothing like that.
So we follow the aarch64 [softfloat ABI](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/131058#issuecomment-2385027423) and treat floats like integers for `extern "C"` functions. For the "Rust" ABI, we do the same for scalars, and then just do something reasonable for ScalarPair that avoids the pointer indirection.

The initial naming of "Abi" was an awful mistake, conveying wrong ideas
about how psABIs worked and even more about what the enum meant.
It was only meant to represent the way the value would be described to
a codegen backend as it was lowered to that intermediate representation.
It was never meant to mean anything about the actual psABI handling!
The conflation is because LLVM typically will associate a certain form
with a certain ABI, but even that does not hold when the special cases
that actually exist arise, plus the IR annotations that modify the ABI.
Reframe `rustc_abi::Abi` as the `BackendRepr` of the type, and rename
`BackendRepr::Aggregate` as `BackendRepr::Memory`. Unfortunately, due to
the persistent misunderstandings, this too is now incorrect:
- Scattered ABI-relevant code is entangled with BackendRepr
- We do not always pre-compute a correct BackendRepr that reflects how
we "actually" want this value to be handled, so we leave the backend
interface to also inject various special-cases here
- In some cases `BackendRepr::Memory` is a "real" aggregate, but in
others it is in fact using memory, and in some cases it is a scalar!
Our rustc-to-backend lowering code handles this sort of thing right now.
That will eventually be addressed by lifting duplicated lowering code
to either rustc_codegen_ssa or rustc_target as appropriate.

This finally unites TyAndLayout, Layout, and LayoutS into the same crate,
as one might imagine they would be placed. No functional changes.
