Operand types are now tracked explicitly, so there is no need for expression
IDs to avoid counter IDs by descending from `u32::MAX`. Instead they can just
count up from 0, and can be used directly as indices when necessary.
Because the three kinds of operand are now distinguished explicitly, we no
longer need fiddly code to disambiguate counter IDs and expression IDs based on
the total number of counters/expressions in a function.
This does increase the size of operands from 4 bytes to 8 bytes, but that
shouldn't be a big deal since they are mostly stored inside boxed structures,
and the current coverage code is not particularly size-optimized anyway.
This section name is always constant for a given target, but obtaining it from
LLVM requires a few intermediate allocations. There's no need to do so
repeatedly from inside a per-function loop.
Both GCC and Clang write by default a `.comment` section with compiler
information:
```txt
$ gcc -c -xc /dev/null && readelf -p '.comment' null.o
String dump of section '.comment':
[ 1] GCC: (GNU) 11.2.0
$ clang -c -xc /dev/null && readelf -p '.comment' null.o
String dump of section '.comment':
[ 1] clang version 14.0.1 (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git c62053979489ccb002efe411c3af059addcb5d7d)
```
They also implement the `-Qn` flag to avoid doing so:
```txt
$ gcc -Qn -c -xc /dev/null && readelf -p '.comment' null.o
readelf: Warning: Section '.comment' was not dumped because it does not exist!
$ clang -Qn -c -xc /dev/null && readelf -p '.comment' null.o
readelf: Warning: Section '.comment' was not dumped because it does not exist!
```
So far, `rustc` only does it for WebAssembly targets and only
when debug info is enabled:
```txt
$ echo 'fn main(){}' | rustc --target=wasm32-unknown-unknown --emit=llvm-ir -Cdebuginfo=2 - && grep llvm.ident rust_out.ll
!llvm.ident = !{!27}
```
In the RFC part of this PR it was decided to always add
the information, which gets us closer to other popular compilers.
An opt-out flag like GCC and Clang may be added later on if deemed
necessary.
Implementation-wise, this covers both `ModuleLlvm::new()` and
`ModuleLlvm::new_metadata()` cases by moving the addition to
`context::create_module` and adds a few test cases.
ThinLTO also sees the `llvm.ident` named metadata duplicated (in
temporary outputs), so this deduplicates it like it is done for
`wasm.custom_sections`. The tests also check this duplication does
not take place.

Prototype: Add unstable `-Z reference-niches` option
MCP: rust-lang/compiler-team#641
Relevant RFC: rust-lang/rfcs#3204
This prototype adds a new `-Z reference-niches` option, controlling the range of valid bit-patterns for reference types (`&T` and `&mut T`), thereby enabling new enum niching opportunities. Like `-Z randomize-layout`, this setting is crate-local; as such, references to built-in types (primitives, tuples, ...) are not affected.
The possible settings are (here, `MAX` denotes the all-1 bit-pattern):
| `-Z reference-niches=` | Valid range |
|:---:|:---:|
| `null` (the default) | `1..=MAX` |
| `size` | `1..=(MAX- size)` |
| `align` | `align..=MAX.align_down_to(align)` |
| `size,align` | `align..=(MAX-size).align_down_to(align)` |
------
This is very WIP, and I'm not sure the approach I've taken here is the best one, but stage 1 tests pass locally; I believe this is in a good enough state to unleash this upon unsuspecting 3rd-party code, and see what breaks.
Support `--print KIND=PATH` command line syntax
As is already done for `--emit KIND=PATH` and `-L KIND=PATH`.
In the discussion of #110785, it was pointed out that `--print KIND=PATH` is nicer than trying to apply the single global `-o` path to `--print`'s output, because in general there can be multiple print requests within a single rustc invocation, and anyway `-o` would already be used for a different meaning in the case of `link-args` and `native-static-libs`.
I am interested in using `--print cfg=PATH` in Buck2. Currently Buck2 works around the lack of support for `--print KIND=PATH` by [indirecting through a Python wrapper script](d43cf3a51a/prelude/rust/tools/get_rustc_cfg.py) to redirect rustc's stdout into the location dictated by the build system.
From skimming Cargo's usages of `--print`, it definitely seems like it would benefit from `--print KIND=PATH` too. Currently it is working around the lack of this by inserting `--crate-name=___ --print=crate-name` so that it can look for a line containing `___` as a delimiter between the 2 other `--print` informations it actually cares about. This is commented as a "HACK" and "abuse". 31eda6f7c3/src/cargo/core/compiler/build_context/target_info.rs (L242) (FYI `@weihanglo` as you dealt with this recently in https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/11633.)

Resurrect: rustc_llvm: Add a -Z `print-codegen-stats` option to expose LLVM statistics.
This resurrects PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104000, which has sat idle for a while. And I want to see the effect of stack-move optimizations on LLVM (like https://reviews.llvm.org/D153453) :).
I have applied the changes requested by `@oli-obk` and `@nagisa` https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104000#discussion_r1014625377 and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/104000#discussion_r1014642482 in the latest commits.

LLVM has a neat [statistics](https://llvm.org/docs/ProgrammersManual.html#the-statistic-class-stats-option) feature that tracks how often optimizations kick in. It's very handy for optimization work. Since we expose the LLVM pass timings, I thought it made sense to expose the LLVM statistics too.

(Edit2: fix segmentation fault and use malloc
If `rustc` is built with
```toml
[llvm]
assertions = true
```
Then you can see like
```
rustc +stage1 -Z print-codegen-stats -C opt-level=3 tmp.rs
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
... Statistics Collected ...
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
3 aa - Number of MayAlias results
193 aa - Number of MustAlias results
531 aa - Number of NoAlias results
...
```
And the current default build emits only
```
$ rustc +stage1 -Z print-codegen-stats -C opt-level=3 tmp.rs
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
... Statistics Collected ...
===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
$
```
This might be better to emit the message to tell assertion flag necessity, but now I can't find how to do that...
Add the `no-builtins` attribute to functions when `no_builtins` is applied at the crate level.
**When `no_builtins` is applied at the crate level, we should add the `no-builtins` attribute to each function to ensure it takes effect in LTO.**
This is also the reason why no_builtins does not take effect in LTO as mentioned in #35540.
Now, `#![no_builtins]` should be similar to `-fno-builtin` in clang/gcc, see https://clang.godbolt.org/z/z4j6Wsod5.
Next, we should make `#![no_builtins]` participate in LTO again. That makes sense, as LTO also takes into consideration function-level instruction optimizations, such as the MachineOutliner. More importantly, when a user writes a large `#![no_builtins]` crate, they would like this crate to participate in LTO as well.
We should also add a function-level no_builtins attribute to allow users to have more control over it. This is similar to Clang's `__attribute__((no_builtin))` feature, see https://clang.godbolt.org/z/Wod6KK6eq. Before implementing this feature, maybe we should discuss whether to support more fine-grained control, such as `__attribute__((no_builtin("memcpy")))`.

Better diagnostics for dlltool errors.
When dlltool fails, show the full command that was executed. In particular, llvm-dlltool is not very helpful, printing a generic usage message rather than what actually went wrong, so stdout and stderr aren't of much use when troubleshooting.

Remove `LLVMRustCoverageHashCString`
Coverage has two FFI functions for computing the hash of a byte string. One takes a ptr/len pair (`LLVMRustCoverageHashByteArray`), and the other takes a NUL-terminated C string (`LLVMRustCoverageHashCString`).
But on closer inspection, the C string version is unnecessary. The calling-side code converts a Rust `&str` into a `CString`, and the C++ code then immediately turns it back into a ptr/len string before actually hashing it. So we can just call the ptr/len version directly instead.
---
This PR also fixes a bug in the C++ declaration of `LLVMRustCoverageHashByteArray`. It should be `size_t`, since that's what is declared and passed on the Rust side, and it's what `StrRef`'s constructor expects to receive on the callee side.

Add `-Zremark-dir` unstable flag to write LLVM optimization remarks to YAML
This PR adds an option for `rustc` to emit LLVM optimization remarks to a set of YAML files, which can then be digested by existing tools, like https://github.com/OfekShilon/optview2. When `-Cremark-dir` is passed, and remarks are enabled (`-Cremark=all`), the remarks will be now written to the specified directory, **instead** of being printed to standard error output. The files are named based on the CGU from which they are being generated.
Currently, the remarks are written using the LLVM streaming machinery, directly in the diagnostics handler. It seemed easier than going back to Rust and then form there back to C++ to use the streamer from the diagnostics handler. But there are many ways to implement this, of course, so I'm open to suggestions :)
I included some comments with questions into the code. Also, I'm not sure how to test this.
