* The `codegen_nav`, `codegen_func`, `codegen_type` tasks are renamed to
`link_nav`, `link_func`, and `link_type`, to more accurately reflect
their purpose of sending data to the *linker*. Currently, `link_func`
remains responsible for codegen; this will change in an upcoming
commit.
* Don't go on a pointless detour through `PerThread` when linking ZCU
functions/`Nav`s; so, the `linkerUpdateNav` etc logic now lives in
`link.zig`. Currently, `linkerUpdateFunc` is an exception, because it
has broader responsibilities including codegen, but this will be
solved in an upcoming commit.
For directory arguments that need both prefix and suffix strings
appended.

I'm not convinced that some of the possibilities that these regexes allowed are real. I've literally never seen or heard of "armhfel", nor of "thumb" ever showing up in `uname -m`, etc.
* trailing whitespace
* langref: undefined _is_ materialized in all safe modes
I am also not super happy about the clause that immediately follows. I
_believe_ what we want to say here is that, simultaneously:
* undefined is guaranteed to be matrerialized in in all safe modes.
A Zig implementation that elides `ptr.* = undefined` in ReleaseSafe
mode would be a non-conforming implementation.
* A Zig program that relies on undefined being materialized is buggy.
But I don't think it's the time to engage this level of language-lawering!
Currently, Zig semantically loads an array as a temporary when indexing
it. This means it cannot be guaranteed that only the requested element
is loaded; in particular, our self-hosted backends do not elide the load
of the full array, so this test case was crashing on self-hosted.
Representing this with a `GenZir` field is incredibly bug-prone.
Instead, just pass this data directly to the relevant expression in the
very few places which actually provide a name strategy.
Resolves: #22798
Note that `openLoadArchive` already has linker script support.
With this change I get a failure parsing a real archive in the self
hosted elf linker, rather than the previous behavior of getting an error
while trying to parse a pseudo archive that is actually a load script.
