rustc: Implement custom panic runtimes

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1513] which allows applications to
alter the behavior of panics at compile time. A new compiler flag, `-C panic`,
is added and accepts the values `unwind` or `panic`, with the default being
`unwind`. This model affects how code is generated for the local crate, skipping
generation of landing pads with `-C panic=abort`.

[RFC 1513]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1513-less-unwinding.md

Panic implementations are then provided by crates tagged with
`#![panic_runtime]` and lazily required by crates with
`#![needs_panic_runtime]`. The panic strategy (`-C panic` value) of the panic
runtime must match the final product, and if the panic strategy is not `abort`
then the entire DAG must have the same panic strategy.

With the `-C panic=abort` strategy, users can expect a stable method to disable
generation of landing pads, improving optimization in niche scenarios,
decreasing compile time, and decreasing output binary size. With the `-C
panic=unwind` strategy users can expect the existing ability to isolate failure
in Rust code from the outside world.

Organizationally, this commit dismantles the `sys_common::unwind` module in
favor of some bits moving part of it to `libpanic_unwind` and the rest into the
`panicking` module in libstd. The custom panic runtime support is pretty similar
to the custom allocator support with the only major difference being how the
panic runtime is injected (takes the `-C panic` flag into account).

Closes #32837

// This... is a bit of an oddity. The tl;dr; is that this is required to link
// correctly, the longer explanation is below.
//
// Right now the binaries of libcore/libstd that we ship are all compiled with
// `-C panic=unwind`. This is done to ensure that the binaries are maximally
// compatible with as many situations as possible. The compiler, however,
// requires a "personality function" for all functions compiled with `-C
// panic=unwind`. This personality function is hardcoded to the symbol
// `rust_eh_personality` and is defined by the `eh_personality` lang item.
//
// So... why not just define that lang item here? Good question! The way that
// panic runtimes are linked in is actually a little subtle in that they're
// "sort of" in the compiler's crate store, but only actually linked if another
// isn't actually linked. This ends up meaning that both this crate and the
// panic_unwind crate can appear in the compiler's crate store, and if both
// define the `eh_personality` lang item then that'll hit an error.
//
// To handle this the compiler only requires the `eh_personality` is defined if
// the panic runtime being linked in is the unwinding runtime, and otherwise
// it's not required to be defined (rightfully so). In this case, however, this
// library just defines this symbol so there's at least some personality
// somewhere.
//
// Essentially this symbol is just defined to get wired up to libcore/libstd
// binaries, but it should never be called as we don't link in an unwinding
// runtime at all.
