Use `MPlaceTy` instead of `PlaceTy` in `FnArg` and ignore (copy) locals in an
earlier step ("Locals that don't have their address taken are as protected as
they can ever be").
This seems to be crucial for tail call support (as they can't refer to caller's
locals which are killed when replacing the stack frame).
Add asm goto support to `asm!`
Tracking issue: #119364
This PR implements asm-goto support, using the syntax described in "future possibilities" section of [RFC2873](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/2873-inline-asm.html#asm-goto).
Currently I have only implemented the `label` part, not the `fallthrough` part (i.e. fallthrough is implicit). This doesn't reduce the expressive though, since you can use label-break to get arbitrary control flow or simply set a value and rely on jump threading optimisation to get the desired control flow. I can add that later if deemed necessary.

interpret: avoid a long-lived PlaceTy in stack frames
`PlaceTy` uses a representation that's not very stable under changes to the stack. I'd feel better if we didn't have one in the long-term machine state.

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).
cc `@scottmcm` `@WaffleLapkin`
### 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)
improve normalization of `Pointee::Metadata`
This PR makes it so that `<Wrapper<Tail> as Pointee>::Metadata` is normalized to `<Tail as Pointee>::Metadata` if we don't know `Wrapper<Tail>: Sized`. With that, the trait solver can prove projection predicates like `<Wrapper<Tail> as Pointee>::Metadata == <Tail as Pointee>::Metadata`, which makes it possible to use the metadata APIs to cast between the tail and the wrapper:
```rust
#![feature(ptr_metadata)]
use std::ptr::{self, Pointee};
fn cast_same_meta<T: ?Sized, U: ?Sized>(ptr: *const T) -> *const U
where
T: Pointee<Metadata = <U as Pointee>::Metadata>,
{
let (thin, meta) = ptr.to_raw_parts();
ptr::from_raw_parts(thin, meta)
}
struct Wrapper<T: ?Sized>(T);
fn cast_to_wrapper<T: ?Sized>(ptr: *const T) -> *const Wrapper<T> {
cast_same_meta(ptr)
}
```
Previously, this failed to compile:
```
error[E0271]: type mismatch resolving `<Wrapper<T> as Pointee>::Metadata == <T as Pointee>::Metadata`
--> src/lib.rs:16:5
|
15 | fn cast_to_wrapper<T: ?Sized>(ptr: *const T) -> *const Wrapper<T> {
| - found this type parameter
16 | cast_same_meta(ptr)
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected `Wrapper<T>`, found type parameter `T`
|
= note: expected associated type `<Wrapper<T> as Pointee>::Metadata`
found associated type `<T as Pointee>::Metadata`
= note: an associated type was expected, but a different one was found
```
(Yes, you can already do this with `as` casts. But using functions is so much ✨ *safer* ✨, because you can't change the metadata on accident.)

This PR essentially changes the built-in impls of `Pointee` from this:
```rust
// before
impl Pointee for u8 {
type Metadata = ();
}
impl Pointee for [u8] {
type Metadata = usize;
}
// ...
impl Pointee for Wrapper<u8> {
type Metadata = ();
}
impl Pointee for Wrapper<[u8]> {
type Metadata = usize;
}
// ...
// This impl is only selected if `T` is a type parameter or unnormalizable projection or opaque type.
fallback impl<T: ?Sized> Pointee for Wrapper<T>
where
Wrapper<T>: Sized
{
type Metadata = ();
}
// This impl is only selected if `T` is a type parameter or unnormalizable projection or opaque type.
fallback impl<T /*: Sized */> Pointee for T {
type Metadata = ();
}
```
to this:
```rust
// after
impl Pointee for u8 {
type Metadata = ();
}
impl Pointee for [u8] {
type Metadata = usize;
}
// ...
impl<T: ?Sized> Pointee for Wrapper<T> {
// in the old solver this will instead project to the "deep" tail directly,
// e.g. `Wrapper<Wrapper<T>>::Metadata = T::Metadata`
type Metadata = <T as Pointee>::Metadata;
}
// ...
// This impl is only selected if `T` is a type parameter or unnormalizable projection or opaque type.
fallback impl<T /*: Sized */> Pointee for T {
type Metadata = ();
}
```
guarantee that char and u32 are ABI-compatible
In https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/116894 we added a guarantee that `char` has the same alignment as `u32`, but there is still one axis where these types could differ: function call ABI. So let's nail that down as well: in a function signature, `char` and `u32` are completely equivalent.
This is a new stable guarantee, so it will need t-lang approval.
