Stabilize `-Z print-link-args` as `--print link-args`
We have stable options for adding linker arguments; we should have a
stable option to help debug linker arguments.
Add documentation for the new option. In the documentation, make it clear that
the *exact* format of the output is not a stable guarantee.
`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).

Remove `SymbolStr`
This was originally proposed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/74554#discussion_r466203544. As well as removing the icky `SymbolStr` type, it allows the removal of a lot of `&` and `*` occurrences.

Apply path remapping to DW_AT_GNU_dwo_name when producing split DWARF
`--remap-path-prefix` doesn't apply to paths to `.o` (in case of packed) or `.dwo` (in case of unpacked) files in `DW_AT_GNU_dwo_name`. GCC also has this bug https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=91888
We already use the object crate for generating uncompressed .rmeta
metadata object files. This switches the generation of compressed
.rustc object files to use the object crate as well. These have
slightly different requirements in that .rmeta should be completely
excluded from any final compilation artifacts, while .rustc should
be part of shared objects, but not loaded into memory.
The primary motivation for this change is #90326: In LLVM 14, the
current way of setting section flags (and in particular, preventing
the setting of SHF_ALLOC) will no longer work. There are other ways
we could work around this, but switching to the object crate seems
like the most elegant, as we already use it for .rmeta, and as it
makes this independent of the codegen backend. In particular, we
don't need separate handling in codegen_llvm and codegen_gcc.
codegen_cranelift should be able to reuse the implementation as
well, though I have omitted that here, as it is not based on
codegen_ssa.
This change mostly extracts the existing code for .rmeta handling
to allow using it for .rustc as well, and adjust the codegen
infrastructure to handle the metadata object file separately: We
no longer create a backend-specific module for it, and directly
produce the compiled module instead.
This does not fix#90326 by itself yet, as .llvmbc will need to be
handled separately.
Leave -Z strip available temporarily as an alias, to avoid breaking
cargo until cargo transitions to using -C strip. (If the user passes
both, the -C version wins.)
This performs a substitution of code following the pattern:
let <id> = if let <pat> = ... { identity } else { ... : ! };
To simplify it to:
let <pat> = ... { identity } else { ... : ! };
By adopting the let_else feature.
rustc_driver: Enable the `WARN` log level by default
This commit changes the `tracing_subscriber` initialization in
`rustc_driver` so that the `WARN` verbosity level is enabled by default
when the `RUSTC_LOG` env variable is empty. If the `RUSTC_LOG` env
variable is set, the filter string in the environment variable is
honored, instead.

On macOS, make strip="symbols" not pass any options to strip
This makes the output with `strip="symbols"` match the result of just
calling `strip` on the output binary, minimizing the size of the binary.
Fix handling of +whole-archive native link modifier.
This PR fixes a bug in `add_upstream_native_libraries` that led to the `+whole-archive` modifier being ignored when linking in native libs.
~~Note that the PR does not address the situation when `+whole-archive` is combined with `+bundle`.~~
`@wesleywiser's` commit adds validation code that turns combining `+whole-archive` with `+bundle` into an error.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/88085.

Make `-Z gcc-ld=lld` work for Apple targets
`-Z gcc-ld=lld` was introduced in #85961. It does not work on Macos because lld needs be either named `ld64` or passed `-flavor darwin` as the first two arguments in order to select the Mach-O flavor. Rust invokes cc (=clang) on Macos for linking which calls `ld` as linker binary and not `ld64`, so just creating an `ld64` binary and modifying the search path with `-B` does not work.
In order to solve this patch does:
* Set the `lld_flavor` for all Apple-derived targets to `LldFlavor::Ld64`. As far as I can see this actually works towards fixing `-Xlinker=rust-lld` as all those targets use the Mach-O object format.
* Copy/hardlink rust-lld to the gcc-ld subdirectory as ld64 next to ld.
* If `-Z gcc-ld=lld` is used and the target lld flavor is Ld64 add `-fuse-ld=/path/to/ld64` to the linker invocation.
Fixes#86945.
Link the static libraries with "-bundle" modifier from upstream rust crate
right after linking this rust crate. Some linker such as GNU linker
`ld.bdf` treat order of linking as order of dependency. After this change,
static libraries with "-bundle" modifier is linked in the same order as
"+bundle" modifier. So we can change the value of "bundle" modifier without
causing linking error.
Don't use gc-sections with profile-generate.
When building with profile-generate don't call gc_sections as this can
can sometimes strip out profile data. This missing information in the
prof files can then result in missing functions when using the profile
information.
