Jubilee Young 8abff35b41 compiler: compare and hash ExternAbi like its string
Directly map each ExternAbi variant to its string and back again.
This has a few advantages:
- By making the ABIs compare equal to their strings, we can easily
  lexicographically sort them and use that sorted slice at runtime.
- We no longer need a workaround to make sure the hashes remain stable,
  as they already naturally are (by being the hashes of unique strings).
- The compiler can carry around less &str wide pointers

The driver crate is effectively the "main" function for the rust compiler. It orchestrates the compilation process and "knits together" the code from the other crates within rustc. This crate itself does not contain any of the "main logic" of the compiler (though it does have some code related to pretty printing or other minor compiler options).

For more information about how the driver works, see the rustc dev guide.
