-export-dynamic was a temporary hack added in the early days of the Rust
wasm32 target when Rust didn't have a way to specify wasm exports in the
source code. This flag causes all global symbols, and some compiler-internal
symbols, to be exported, which is often more than needed.
Rust now does have a way to specify exports in the source code:
`#[export_name = "..."]`.
So as the original comment suggests, -export-dynamic can now be removed,
allowing users to have smaller binaries and better encapsulation in
their wasm32-unknown-unknown modules.
It's possible that this change will require existing wasm32-unknown-unknown
users will to add explicit `#[export_name = "..."]` directives to
exporrt the symbols that their programs depend on having exported.

This commit implements the idea of a new ABI for the WebAssembly target,
one called `"wasm"`. This ABI is entirely of my own invention
and has no current precedent, but I think that the addition of this ABI
might help solve a number of issues with the WebAssembly targets.
When `wasm32-unknown-unknown` was first added to Rust I naively
"implemented an abi" for the target. I then went to write `wasm-bindgen`
which accidentally relied on details of this ABI. Turns out the ABI
definition didn't match C, which is causing issues for C/Rust interop.
Currently the compiler has a "wasm32 bindgen compat" ABI which is the
original implementation I added, and it's purely there for, well,
`wasm-bindgen`.
Another issue with the WebAssembly target is that it's not clear to me
when and if the default C ABI will change to account for WebAssembly's
multi-value feature (a feature that allows functions to return multiple
values). Even if this does happen, though, it seems like the C ABI will
be guided based on the performance of WebAssembly code and will likely
not match even what the current wasm-bindgen-compat ABI is today. This
leaves a hole in Rust's expressivity in binding WebAssembly where given
a particular import type, Rust may not be able to import that signature
with an updated C ABI for multi-value.
To fix these issues I had the idea of a new ABI for WebAssembly, one
called `wasm`. The definition of this ABI is "what you write
maps straight to wasm". The goal here is that whatever you write down in
the parameter list or in the return values goes straight into the
function's signature in the WebAssembly file. This special ABI is for
intentionally matching the ABI of an imported function from the
environment or exporting a function with the right signature.
With the addition of a new ABI, this enables rustc to:
* Eventually remove the "wasm-bindgen compat hack". Once this
ABI is stable wasm-bindgen can switch to using it everywhere.
Afterwards the wasm32-unknown-unknown target can have its default ABI
updated to match C.
* Expose the ability to precisely match an ABI signature for a
WebAssembly function, regardless of what the C ABI that clang chooses
turns out to be.
* Continue to evolve the definition of the default C ABI to match what
clang does on all targets, since the purpose of that ABI will be
explicitly matching C rather than generating particular function
imports/exports.
Naturally this is implemented as an unstable feature initially, but it
would be nice for this to get stabilized (if it works) in the near-ish
future to remove the wasm32-unknown-unknown incompatibility with the C
ABI. Doing this, however, requires the feature to be on stable because
wasm-bindgen works with stable Rust.

wasm64 support
There is still some upstream llvm work needed before this can land.

Remove --export-dynamic from the link arguments on the wasm32-wasi
target, as it emits spurious exports and increases code size.
Leave it in place for wasm32-unknown-unknown and
wasm32-unknown-emscripten. Even though it isn't a great solution
there, users are likely depending on its behavior there.

Also change target_pointer_width to pointer_width.
Preparation for a subsequent type change of
target_pointer_width to an integer together with a rename
to pointer_width.
On its own, this commit breaks the build. I don't like making
build-breaking commits, but in this instance I believe that it
makes review easier, as the "real" changes of this PR can be
seen much more easily.
Result of running:
find compiler/rustc_target/src/spec/ -type f -exec sed -i -e 's/target_pointer_width: "\(.*\)"\..*,/pointer_width: \1,/g' {} \;

Construction of a built-in target is always infallible now, so `TargetResult` is no longer necessary.
