Pass the arch rather than full target name to windows_registry::find_tool
The full target name can be anything with custom target specs. Passing just the arch wasn't possible before cc 1.2, but is now thanks to https://github.com/rust-lang/cc-rs/pull/1285.

`rustc_span::symbol` defines some things that are re-exported from
`rustc_span`, such as `Symbol` and `sym`. But it doesn't re-export some
closely related things such as `Ident` and `kw`. So you can do `use
rustc_span::{Symbol, sym}` but you have to do `use
rustc_span::symbol::{Ident, kw}`, which is inconsistent for no good
reason.
This commit re-exports `Ident`, `kw`, and `MacroRulesNormalizedIdent`,
and changes many `rustc_span::symbol::` qualifiers in `compiler/` to
`rustc_span::`. This is a 200+ net line of code reduction, mostly
because many files with two `use rustc_span` items can be reduced to
one.
It is treated as a map already. This is using FxIndexMap rather than
UnordMap because the latter doesn't provide an api to pick a single
value iff all values are equal, which each_linked_rlib depends on.
The target name can be anything with custom target specs. Matching on
fields inside the target spec is much more robust than matching on the
target name.
linker: Allow MSVC to use import libraries following the Meson/MinGW convention
Hi all,
This PR implements support for `MsvcLinker` to use import libraries following Meson and the MinGW toolchain's naming convention. Meson [follows the `libfoo.dll.a` naming convention](https://mesonbuild.com/FAQ.html#why-does-building-my-project-with-msvc-output-static-libraries-called-libfooa) to disambiguate between static and import libraries.
This support already existed for static libraries (see #100101), but not for dynamic libraries. The latter case was added by duplicating the logic in `native_libs::find_native_static_library`, but a separate case was added in `link_dylib_by_name` for the Windows CRT libraries which must be handled by the linker itself.
See for prerequisites #129366, #126094, and #128370.
All feedback is appreciated!
Fixes#122455

Simplify some nested `if` statements
Applies some but not all instances of `clippy::collapsible_if`. Some ended up looking worse afterwards, though, so I left those out. Also applies instances of `clippy::collapsible_else_if`

Ignore `-C strip` on MSVC
tl;dr - Define `-Cstrip` to only ever affect the binary; no other build artifacts.
This is necessary to improve cross-platform behavior consistency: if someone wanted debug information to be contained only in separate files on all platforms, they would set `-Cstrip=symbols` and `-Csplit-debuginfo=packed`, but this would result in no PDB files on MSVC.
Resolves#114215
link.exe: Don't embed full path to PDB file in binary.
This PR makes `rustc` unconditionally pass `/PDBALTPATH:%_PDB%` to MSVC-style linkers, causing the linker to only embed the filename of the PDB in the binary instead of the full path. This will help implement the [trim-paths RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/111540) for `*-msvc` targets.
Passing `/PDBALTPATH:%_PDB%` to the linker is already done by many projects that need reproducible builds and [debugger's should still be able to find the PDB](https://learn.microsoft.com/cpp/build/reference/pdbpath) if it is in the same directory as the binary.

[AIX] Remove AixLinker's debuginfo() implementation
AIX ld's `-s` option doesn't perfectly fit` debuginfo()`'s semantics and may unexpectedly remove metadata in shared libraries. Remove the implementation of `AixLinker` and suggest user to use `strip` utility instead.

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.
Perform LTO optimisations with wasm-ld + -Clinker-plugin-lto
Fixes (partially) #60059. Technically, `--target wasm32-unknown-unknown -Clinker-plugin-lto` would complete without errors before, but it was not producing optimized code. At least, it may have been but it was probably not the opt-level people intended.
Similarly to #118377, this could benefit from a warning about using an explicit libLTO path with LLD, which will ignore it and use its internal LLVM. Especially given we always use lld on wasm targets. I left the code open to that possibility rather than making it perfectly neat.
