This commit removes all morestack support from the compiler which entails:
* Segmented stacks are no longer emitted in codegen.
* We no longer build or distribute libmorestack.a
* The `stack_exhausted` lang item is no longer required
The only current use of the segmented stack support in LLVM is to detect stack
overflow. This is no longer really required, however, because we already have
guard pages for all threads and registered signal handlers watching for a
segfault on those pages (to print out a stack overflow message). Additionally,
major platforms (aka Windows) already don't use morestack.
This means that Rust is by default less likely to catch stack overflows because
if a function takes up more than one page of stack space it won't hit the guard
page. This is what the purpose of morestack was (to catch this case), but it's
better served with stack probes which have more cross platform support and no
runtime support necessary. Until LLVM supports this for all platform it looks
like morestack isn't really buying us much.
cc #16012 (still need stack probes)
Closes #26458 (a drive-by fix to help diagnostics on stack overflow)

An automated script was run against the `.rs` and `.md` files,
subsituting every occurrence of `task` with `thread`. In the `.rs`
files, only the texts in the comment blocks were affected.
|
|
Now that support has been removed, all lingering use cases are renamed.
|
|
These were suppressing lots of interesting warnings! Turns out there was also
quite a bit of dead code.

- consolidate target_record_sp_limit and target_get_sp_limit functions
for aarch64, powerpc, arm-ios and openbsd as there are all without
segmented stacks (no need to duplicate functions).
- rename __load_self function to rust_load_self
- use a mutex inner load_self() as underline implementation is not thread-safe

Adds AArch64 knowledge to:
* configure,
* make files,
* sources,
* tests, and
* documentation.

This commit merges the `rustrt` crate into `std`, undoing part of the
facade. This merger continues the paring down of the runtime system.
Code relying on the public API of `rustrt` will break; some of this API
is now available through `std::rt`, but is likely to change and/or be
removed very soon.
