Support configuring the set of codegen backends to build per host triple
This allows building the compiler itself with one backend while using another backend at runtime. For example this allows compiling rustc to wasm using LLVM, while using Cranelift at runtime to produce actual code. Cranelift can't compile to wasm, but is perfectly capable of running on wasm. LLVM can compile to wasm, but can't run on wasm. [^1]
[^1]: The prototype of this still requires a couple of other patches.

Fix an ICE in the recursion lint
fixes#121170
I looked into it, and there is no good path towards tainting mir_build (where the ICE happens), but using `try_normalize` in a lint seems generally better anyway
allow mutable references in const values when they point to no memory
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/120450
The second commit is just some drive-by test suite cleanup.

Add clippy into the known `cfg` list
In clippy, we are removing the `feature = "cargo-clippy"` cfg to replace it with `clippy` in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/12292. But for it to work, we need to declare `clippy` as cfg. It makes it more coherent with other existing tools like rustdoc.

Avoid an ICE in diagnostics
fixes#121004
just a slice usage in diagnostics code. Sadly we can't yet bubble the `ErrorGuaranteed` from wf check to borrowck for these cases, as that causes cycle errors iirc
Rename MaybeUninit::write_slice
A step to push #79995 forward.
https://github.com/rust-lang/libs-team/issues/122 also suggested to make them inherent methods, but they can't be — they'd conflict with slice's regular methods.
Implement intrinsics with fallback bodies
fixes#93145 (though we can port many more intrinsics)
cc #63585
The way this works is that the backend logic for generating custom code for intrinsics has been made fallible. The only failure path is "this intrinsic is unknown". The `Instance` (that was `InstanceDef::Intrinsic`) then gets converted to `InstanceDef::Item`, which represents the fallback body. A regular function call to that body is then codegenned. This is currently implemented for
* codegen_ssa (so llvm and gcc)
* codegen_cranelift
other backends will need to adjust, but they can just keep doing what they were doing if they prefer (though adding new intrinsics to the compiler will then require them to implement them, instead of getting the fallback body).

### todo
* [ ] miri support
* [x] default intrinsic name to name of function instead of requiring it to be specified in attribute
* [x] make sure that the bodies are always available (must be collected for metadata)
When we try to extract coverage-relevant spans from MIR, sometimes we see MIR
statements/terminators whose spans cover the entire function body. Those spans
tend to be unhelpful for coverage purposes, because they often represent
compiler-inserted code, e.g. the implicit return value of `()`.
doc: add note about panicking examples for strict_overflow_ops
The first commit adds a note before the panicking examples for strict_overflow_ops to make it clearer that the following examples should panic and why, without needing the reader to hover the mouse over the information icon.
The second commit adds panicking examples for division by zero operations for strict division operations on unsigned numbers. The signed numbers already have two panicking examples each: one for division by zero and one for overflowing division (`MIN/-1`); this commit includes the division by zero examples for the unsigned numbers.
Only point out non-diverging arms for match suggestions
Fixes#121144
There is no reason to point at diverging arms, which will always coerce to whatever is the match block's evaluated type.
This also removes the suggestion from #106601, since as I pointed out in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/72634#issuecomment-1946210898 the added suggestion is not firing in the right cases, but instead only when one of the match arms already *actually* evaluates to `()`.

Make `async Fn` trait kind errors better
1. Make it so that async closures with the wrong closurekind actually report a useful error
2. Explain why async closures can sometimes not implement `Fn`/`FnMut` (because they capture things)
r? oli-obk
Add an ErrorGuaranteed to ast::TyKind::Err (attempt 2)
This makes it more like `hir::TyKind::Err`, and avoids a `has_errors` assertion in `LoweringContext::lower_ty_direct`.
