This should have no real effect in most cases, as e.g. `hidden`
visibility already implies `dso_local` (or at least LLVM IR does not
preserve the `dso_local` setting if the item is already `hidden`), but
it should fix `-Crelocation-model=static` and improve codegen in
executables.
Note that this PR does not exhaustively port the logic in [clang]. Only
the obviously correct portion and what is necessary to fix a regression
from LLVM 12 that relates to `-Crelocation_model=static`.
Fixes #83335

This commit updates the compiler to allow the `#[no_mangle]` (and
`#[export_name]` attributes) to be located anywhere within a crate.
These attributes are unconditionally processed, causing the compiler to
always generate an exported symbol with the appropriate name.
After some discussion on #54135 it was found that not a great reason
this hasn't been allowed already, and it seems to match the behavior
that many expect! Previously the compiler would only export a
`#[no_mangle]` symbol if it were *publicly reachable*, meaning that it
itself is `pub` and it's otherwise publicly reachable from the root of
the crate. This new definition is that `#[no_mangle]` *is always
reachable*, no matter where it is in a crate or whether it has `pub` or
not.
This should make it much easier to declare an exported symbol with a
known and unique name, even when it's an internal implementation detail
of the crate itself. Note that these symbols will persist beyond LTO as
well, always making their way to the linker.
Along the way this commit removes the `private_no_mangle_functions` lint
(also for statics) as there's no longer any need to lint these
situations. Furthermore a good number of tests were updated now that
symbol visibility has been changed.
Closes #54135

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1513] which allows applications to
alter the behavior of panics at compile time. A new compiler flag, `-C panic`,
is added and accepts the values `unwind` or `panic`, with the default being
`unwind`. This model affects how code is generated for the local crate, skipping
generation of landing pads with `-C panic=abort`.
[RFC 1513]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1513-less-unwinding.md
Panic implementations are then provided by crates tagged with
`#![panic_runtime]` and lazily required by crates with
`#![needs_panic_runtime]`. The panic strategy (`-C panic` value) of the panic
runtime must match the final product, and if the panic strategy is not `abort`
then the entire DAG must have the same panic strategy.
With the `-C panic=abort` strategy, users can expect a stable method to disable
generation of landing pads, improving optimization in niche scenarios,
decreasing compile time, and decreasing output binary size. With the `-C
panic=unwind` strategy users can expect the existing ability to isolate failure
in Rust code from the outside world.
Organizationally, this commit dismantles the `sys_common::unwind` module in
favor of some bits moving part of it to `libpanic_unwind` and the rest into the
`panicking` module in libstd. The custom panic runtime support is pretty similar
to the custom allocator support with the only major difference being how the
panic runtime is injected (takes the `-C panic` flag into account).
