rustbuild: Add cli option --keep-stage
This option is intended to be used like:
./x.py build --stage 1 --keep-stage 0
Which skips all stage 0 steps, so that stage 1 can be recompiled
directly (even if for example libcore has changes).
This is useful when working on `cfg(not(stage0))` parts of the
libraries or when re-running stage 1 tests in libraries in general.
Fixes #38326

This commit switches the default build system for Rust from the makefiles to
rustbuild. The rustbuild build system has been in development for almost a year
now and has become quite mature over time. This commit is an implementation of
the proposal on [internals] which slates deletion of the makefiles on
2016-01-02.
[internals]: https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/proposal-for-promoting-rustbuild-to-official-status/4368
This commit also updates various documentation in `README.md`,
`CONTRIBUTING.md`, `src/bootstrap/README.md`, and throughout the source code of
rustbuild itself.
Closes #37858

Add command `./x.py bench`; use `./x.py bench --help -v` to list all
available benchmark targets.

This commit is a rewrite of the user-facing interface to the rustbuild build
system. The intention here is to make it much easier to compile/test the project
without having to remember weird rule names and such. An overall view of the new
interface is:
# build everything
./x.py build
# document everyting
./x.py doc
# test everything
./x.py test
# test libstd
./x.py test src/libstd
# build libcore stage0
./x.py build src/libcore --stage 0
# run stage1 run-pass tests
./x.py test src/test/run-pass --stage 1
The `src/bootstrap/bootstrap.py` script is now aliased as a top-level `x.py`
script. This `x` was chosen to be both short and easily tab-completable (no
collisions in that namespace!). The build system now accepts a "subcommand" of
what to do next, the main ones being build/doc/test.
Each subcommand then receives an optional list of arguments. These arguments are
paths in the source repo of what to work with. That is, if you want to test a
directory, you just pass that directory as an argument.
The purpose of this rewrite is to do away with all of the arcane renames like
"rpass" is the "run-pass" suite, "cfail" is the "compile-fail" suite, etc. By
simply working with directories and files it's much more intuitive of how to run
a test (just pass it as an argument).
The rustbuild step/dependency management was also rewritten along the way to
make this easy to work with and define, but that's largely just a refactoring of
what was there before.
The *intention* is that this support is extended for arbitrary files (e.g.
`src/test/run-pass/my-test-case.rs`), but that isn't quite implemented just yet.
Instead directories work for now but we can follow up with stricter path
filtering logic to plumb through all the arguments.

The organization in rustbuild was a little odd at the moment where the `lib.rs`
was quite small but the binary `main.rs` was much larger. Unfortunately as well
there was a `build/` directory with the implementation of the build system, but
this directory was ignored by GitHub on the file-search prompt which was a
little annoying.
This commit reorganizes rustbuild slightly where all the library files (the
build system) is located directly inside of `src/bootstrap` and all the binaries
now live in `src/bootstrap/bin` (they're small). Hopefully this should allow
GitHub to index and allow navigating all the files while maintaining a
relatively similar layout to the other libraries in `src/`.
