Explain why we retroactively change a static initializer to have a different type
I keep getting confused about it and in turn confused `@GuillaumeGomez` while trying to explain it badly
Pointers for variables all need to be in the same address space for
correct compilation. Therefore ensure that even if a global variable is
created in a different address space, it is casted to the default
address space before its value is used.
This is necessary for the amdgpu target and others where the default
address space for global variables is not 0.
For example `core` does not compile in debug mode when not casting the
address space to the default one because it tries to emit the following
(simplified) LLVM IR, containing a type mismatch:
```llvm
@alloc_0 = addrspace(1) constant <{ [6 x i8] }> <{ [6 x i8] c"bit.rs" }>, align 1
@alloc_1 = addrspace(1) constant <{ ptr }> <{ ptr addrspace(1) @alloc_0 }>, align 8
; ^ here a struct containing a `ptr` is needed, but it is created using a `ptr addrspace(1)`
```
For this to compile, we need to insert a constant `addrspacecast` before
we use a global variable:
```llvm
@alloc_0 = addrspace(1) constant <{ [6 x i8] }> <{ [6 x i8] c"bit.rs" }>, align 1
@alloc_1 = addrspace(1) constant <{ ptr }> <{ ptr addrspacecast (ptr addrspace(1) @alloc_0 to ptr) }>, align 8
```
As vtables are global variables as well, they are also created with an
`addrspacecast`. In the SSA backend, after a vtable global is created,
metadata is added to it. To add metadata, we need the non-casted global
variable. Therefore we strip away an addrspacecast if there is one, to
get the underlying global.
Allow disabling ASan instrumentation for globals
AddressSanitizer adds instrumentation to global variables unless the [`no_sanitize_address`](https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#global-attributes) attribute is set on them.
This commit extends the existing `#[no_sanitize(address)]` attribute to set this; previously it only had the desired effect on functions.
(cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/39699)
the behavior of the type system not only depends on the current
assumptions, but also the currentnphase of the compiler. This is
mostly necessary as we need to decide whether and how to reveal
opaque types. We track this via the `TypingMode`.
Set "symbol name" in raw-dylib import libraries to the decorated name
`windows-rs` received a bug report that mixing raw-dylib generated and the Windows SDK import libraries was causing linker failures: <https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs/issues/3285>
The root cause turned out to be #124958, that is we are not including the decorated name in the import library and so the import name type is also not being correctly set.
This change modifies the generation of import libraries to set the "symbol name" to the fully decorated name and correctly marks the import as being data vs function.
Note that this also required some changes to how the symbol is named within Rust: for MSVC we now need to use the decorated name but for MinGW we still need to use partially decorated (or undecorated) name.
Fixes#124958
Passing i686 MSVC and MinGW build: <1100043388>

Remove macOS 10.10 dynamic linker bug workaround
Rust's current minimum macOS version is 10.12, so the hack can be removed. This PR also updates the `remove_dir_all` docs to reflect that all supported macOS versions are protected against TOCTOU race conditions (the fallback implementation was already removed in #127683).

Supertraits of `BuilderMethods` are all called `XyzBuilderMethods`.
Supertraits of `CodegenMethods` are all called `XyzMethods`. This commit
changes the latter to `XyzCodegenMethods`, for consistency.
Add `#[warn(unreachable_pub)]` to a bunch of compiler crates
By default `unreachable_pub` identifies things that need not be `pub` and tells you to make them `pub(crate)`. But sometimes those things don't need any kind of visibility. So they way I did these was to remove the visibility entirely for each thing the lint identifies, and then add `pub(crate)` back in everywhere the compiler said it was necessary. (Or occasionally `pub(super)` when context suggested that was appropriate.) Tedious, but results in more `pub` removal.
There are plenty more crates to do but this seems like enough for a first PR.

Handle .init_array link_section specially on wasm
Given that wasm-ld now has support for [.init_array](8f2bd8ae68/llvm/lib/MC/WasmObjectWriter.cpp (L1852)), it appears we can easily implement that section by falling through to the normal path rather than taking the typical custom_section path for wasm.
The wasm-ld appears to have a bunch of limitations. Only one static with the `link_section` in a crate or else you hit the fatal error in the link above "only one .init_array section fragment supported". They do not get merged.
You can still call multiple constructors by setting it to an array.
```
unsafe extern "C" fn ctor() {
println!("foo");
}
#[used]
#[link_section = ".init_array"]
static FOO: [unsafe extern "C" fn(); 2] = [ctor, ctor];
```
Another issue appears to be that if crate *A* depends on crate *B*, but *A* doesn't call any symbols from *B* and *B* doesn't `#[export_name = ...]` any symbols, then crate *B*'s constructor will not be called. The workaround to this is to provide an exported symbol in crate *B*.
[cleanup] [llvm backend] Prevent creating the same `Instance::mono` multiple times
Just a little thing I came across while going through the code.
r? ```@oli-obk```
This makes sure that &[] is just as efficient as indirecting through
unsafe code (from_raw_parts). No new stable guarantee is intended about
whether or not we do this, this is just an optimization.

`LLVMConstZext` recently got deleted, and it turns out (thanks to @nikic
for knowing!) that this is dead code. Tests all pass for me without this
logic, and per nikic:
> We always generate constants in "relocatable bag of bytes"

So this should be a safe thing to do.
