Add emulated TLS support

This is a reopen of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/96317 . many android devices still only use 128 pthread keys, so using emutls can be helpful.

Currently LLVM uses emutls by default for some targets (such as android, openbsd), but rust does not use it, because `has_thread_local` is false.

This commit has some changes to allow users to enable emutls:

1. add `-Zhas-thread-local` flag to specify that std uses `#[thread_local]` instead of pthread key.
2. when using emutls, decorate symbol names to find thread local symbol correctly.
3. change `-Zforce-emulated-tls` to `-Ztls-model=emulated` to explicitly specify whether to generate emutls.

The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR, and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code that runs towards the end of the compilation process.

For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
