`CompiledModule` should not think a DWARF object was emitted when a
bitcode-only compilation has happened, this can confuse archive file
creation (which expects to create an archive containing non-existent dwo
files).

session: stabilize split debuginfo on linux
Stabilize the `-Csplit-debuginfo` flag...
- ...on Linux for all values of the flag. Split DWARF has been implemented for a few months, hasn't had any bug reports and has had some promising benchmarking for incremental debug build performance.
- ..on other platforms for the default value. It doesn't make any sense that `-Csplit-debuginfo=packed` is unstable on Windows MSVC when that's the default behaviour, but keep the other values unstable.

`thorin` is a Rust implementation of a DWARF packaging utility that
supports reading DWARF objects from archive files (i.e. rlibs) and
therefore is better suited for integration into rustc.

In #79570, `-Z split-dwarf-kind={none,single,split}` was replaced by `-C
split-debuginfo={off,packed,unpacked}`. `-C split-debuginfo`'s packed
and unpacked aren't exact parallels to single and split, respectively.
On Unix, `-C split-debuginfo=packed` will put debuginfo into object
files and package debuginfo into a DWARF package file (`.dwp`) and
`-C split-debuginfo=unpacked` will put debuginfo into dwarf object files
and won't package it.
In the initial implementation of Split DWARF, split mode wrote sections
which did not require relocation into a DWARF object (`.dwo`) file which
was ignored by the linker and then packaged those DWARF objects into
DWARF packages (`.dwp`). In single mode, sections which did not require
relocation were written into object files but ignored by the linker and
were not packaged. However, both split and single modes could be
packaged or not, the primary difference in behaviour was where the
debuginfo sections that did not require link-time relocation were
written (in a DWARF object or the object file).
This commit re-introduces a `-Z split-dwarf-kind` flag, which can be
used to pick between split and single modes when `-C split-debuginfo` is
used to enable Split DWARF (either packed or unpacked).

This commit adds a new stable codegen option to rustc,
`-Csplit-debuginfo`. The old `-Zrun-dsymutil` flag is deleted and now
subsumed by this stable flag. Additionally `-Zsplit-dwarf` is also
subsumed by this flag but still requires `-Zunstable-options` to
actually activate. The `-Csplit-debuginfo` flag takes one of
three values:
* `off` - This indicates that split-debuginfo from the final artifact is
not desired. This is not supported on Windows and is the default on
Unix platforms except macOS. On macOS this means that `dsymutil` is
not executed.
* `packed` - This means that debuginfo is desired in one location
separate from the main executable. This is the default on Windows
(`*.pdb`) and macOS (`*.dSYM`). On other Unix platforms this subsumes
`-Zsplit-dwarf=single` and produces a `*.dwp` file.
* `unpacked` - This means that debuginfo will be roughly equivalent to
object files, meaning that it's throughout the build directory
rather than in one location (often the fastest for local development).
This is not the default on any platform and is not supported on Windows.
Each target can indicate its own default preference for how debuginfo is
handled. Almost all platforms default to `off` except for Windows and
macOS which default to `packed` for historical reasons.
Some equivalencies for previous unstable flags with the new flags are:
* `-Zrun-dsymutil=yes` -> `-Csplit-debuginfo=packed`
* `-Zrun-dsymutil=no` -> `-Csplit-debuginfo=unpacked`
* `-Zsplit-dwarf=single` -> `-Csplit-debuginfo=packed`
* `-Zsplit-dwarf=split` -> `-Csplit-debuginfo=unpacked`
Note that `-Csplit-debuginfo` still requires `-Zunstable-options` for
non-macOS platforms since split-dwarf support was *just* implemented in
rustc.
There's some more rationale listed on #79361, but the main gist of the
motivation for this commit is that `dsymutil` can take quite a long time
to execute in debug builds and provides little benefit. This means that
incremental compile times appear that much worse on macOS because the
compiler is constantly running `dsymutil` over every single binary it
produces during `cargo build` (even build scripts!). Ideally rustc would
switch to not running `dsymutil` by default, but that's a problem left
to get tackled another day.
Closes #79361
