Retire the legacy `Makefile`-based `run-make` test infra
The final piece of [porting run-make tests to use Rust #121876](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/121876).
Closes#121876.
Closes#40713.
Closes#81791 (no longer using `wc`).
Closes#56475 (no longer a problem in current form of that test; we don't ignore the test on `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`).
### Summary
This PR removes the legacy `Makefile`-based `run-make` test infra which has served us well over the years. The legacy infra is no longer needed since we ported all of `Makefile`-based `run-make` tests to the new `rmake.rs` infra.
Additionally, this PR:
- Removes `tests/run-make/tools.mk` since no more `Makefile`-based tests remain.
- Updates `tests/run-make/README.md` and rustc-dev-guide docs to remove mention about `Makefile`-based `run-make` tests
- Update test suite requirements in rustc-dev-guide on Windows to no longer need MSYS2 (they should also now run successfully on native Windows MSVC).
- Update `triagebot.toml` to stop backlinking to #121876.
**Thanks to everyone who helped in this effort to modernize the `run-make` test infra and test suite!**

Support raw-dylib link kind on ELF
raw-dylib is a link kind that allows rustc to link against a library without having any library files present.
This currently only exists on Windows. rustc will take all the symbols from raw-dylib link blocks and put them in an import library, where they can then be resolved by the linker.
While import libraries don't exist on ELF, it would still be convenient to have this same functionality. Not having the libraries present at build-time can be convenient for several reasons, especially cross-compilation. With raw-dylib, code linking against a library can be cross-compiled without needing to have these libraries available on the build machine. If the libc crate makes use of this, it would allow cross-compilation without having any libc available on the build machine. This is not yet possible with this implementation, at least against libc's like glibc that use symbol versioning. The raw-dylib kind could be extended with support for symbol versioning in the future.
This implementation is very experimental and I have not tested it very well. I have tested it for a toy example and the lz4-sys crate, where it was able to successfully link a binary despite not having a corresponding library at build-time.
I was inspired by Björn's comments in https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/bundle-zig-cc-in-rustup-by-default/22096/27

Rewrite the `ci.py` script in Rust
It would seem that I would learn by now that any script written in Python will become unmaintainable sooner or later, but alas..

stabilize stage management for rustc tools
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/135990 got out of control due to excessive complexity. This PR aims to achieve the same goal with a simpler approach, likely through multiple smaller PRs. I will keep the other one read-only and open as a reference for future work.
This work stabilizes the staging logic for `ToolRustc` programs, so you no longer need to handle build and target compilers separately in steps. Previously, most tools didn't do this correctly, which was causing the compiler to be built twice (e.g., `x test cargo --stage 1` would compile the stage 2 compiler before, but now it only compiles the stage 1 compiler).
I also tried to document how we should write `ToolRustc` steps as they are quite different and require more attention than other tools.
Next goal is to stabilize how stages are handled for the rustc itself. Currently, `x build --stage 1` builds the stage 1 compiler which is fine, but `x build compiler --stage 1` builds stage 2 compiler.

Added project-specific Zed IDE settings
This repository currently has project-specific VS Code IDE settings in `.vscode` and `compiler/rustc_codegen_cranelift/.vscode`. Now there are equivalent project-specific Zed IDE settings alongside those.
This fixes `rust-analyzer` not being able to properly handle this project.
Note that:
1. The contents of `src/tools/rust-analyzer/.vscode` could not be translated to Zed, as they aren't basic IDE settings.
2. One of the VS Code settings in `.vscode` has no corresponding setting in Zed, and so this has been noted like this:
```json
"_settings_only_in_vs_code_not_yet_in_zed": {
"git.detectSubmodulesLimit": 20
},
```
While there were comments indicating which nightly versions the examples
were tested with, those versions did not work for me: neither did the
examples compile, nor did they produce the expected output.
This commit fixes the compilation issues, using nightly-2025-02-13 for
all examples (previously the version differed between the examples) and,
in the case of the `rustc_driver` examples, also fixes the argument
passing: rustc ignores the first argument, so we need to pass the
filename as the second (otherwise we only get the help text printed).
Note that the `rustc-interface-getting-diagnostics.rs` example still
does not produce any output, which I assume is not how it is intended.
However, I don't know enough to fix it.
To avoid inconsistencies between the documented version and the actually
required version I've moved the version comment from the Markdown into
the Rust code where it hopefully won't be forgotten as easily.
Finally I've clarified in the examples' README that you also need to use
the proper nightly version when compiling the examples, not just when
running them.
Add profiling of bootstrap commands using Chrome events
Since we now have support for tracing in bootstrap, and the execution of most commands is centralized within a few functions, it's quite trivial to also trace command execution, and visualize it using the Chrome profiler. This can be helpful both to profile what takes time in bootstrap and also to get a visual idea of what happens in a given bootstrap invocation (since the execution of external commands is usually the most interesting thing).
This is how it looks:

I first tried to use [tracing-flame](https://github.com/tokio-rs/tracing/tree/master/tracing-flame), but the output wasn't very useful, because the event/stackframe names were bootstrap code locations, instead of the command contents.

valtree performance tuning
Summary: This PR makes type checking of code with many type-level constants faster.
After https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/136180 was merged, we observed a small perf regression (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/136318#issuecomment-2635562821). This happened because that PR introduced additional copies in the fast reject code path for consts, which is very hot for certain crates: 6c1d960d88/compiler/rustc_type_ir/src/fast_reject.rs (L486-L487)
This PR improves the performance again by properly interning the valtrees so that copying and comparing them becomes faster. This will become especially useful with `feature(adt_const_params)`, so the fast reject code doesn't have to do a deep compare of the valtrees.
Note that we can't just compare the interned consts themselves in the fast reject, because sometimes `'static` lifetimes in the type are be replaced with inference variables (due to canonicalization) on one side but not the other.
A less invasive alternative that I considered is simply avoiding copies introduced by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/136180 and comparing the valtrees it in-place (see commit: 9e91e50ac5 / perf results: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/136593#issuecomment-2642303245), however that was still measurably slower than interning.
There are some minor regressions in secondary benchmarks: These happen due to changes in memory allocations and seem acceptable to me. The crates that make heavy use of valtrees show no significant changes in memory usage.

dev-guide: Link to `t-lang` procedures for new features
I was confused in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/136867, because while I did remember that such a procedure existed, but I couldn't seem to find it in the dev guide.
