Since we exclude Abi.none from the list of ABIs to be tested, it means that
Abi.gnu, which happens to be the first in the list, always gets picked for hosts
where the dynamic linker path does not depend on the ABI component of the
triple. Such hosts include all the BSDs, Haiku, Serenity, Solaris, etc.
To fix this, use DynamicLinker.kind() to determine whether this whole exercise
even makes sense. If it doesn't, as is the case on every OS other than Linux and
Hurd, we'll just fall back to Abi.default() which will try to pick a sensible
default based on the arch and OS components. This detection logic still has
plenty of room for improvement, but is at least a notable step up from
confusingly detecting Abi.gnu ~everywhere.
Closes#9089.
hasDynamicLinker() was just kind of lying in the case of Darwin platforms for
the benefit of std.zig.system.detectAbiAndDynamicLinker(). A better name would
have been hasElfDynamicLinker() or something. It also got the answer wrong for a
bunch of platforms that don't actually use ELF. Anyway, this was clearly the
wrong layer to do this at, so remove this function and instead use
DynamicLinker.kind() + an isDarwin() check in detectAbiAndDynamicLinker().

using `.C` in Sema is incorrect since it will be resolved under the target that Zig was compiled with, not the target build configuration. This is easily solved by just calling `cCallingConvention` on the target to resolve it.
it doesn't detect and remove no longer watched things yet
it also isn't aware of any file names reported by kqueue. I'm unsure if
that functionality exists.
these tasks have some shared data dependencies so they cannot be done
simultaneously. Future work should untangle these data dependencies so
that more can be done in parallel.
for now this commit ensures correctness by making linker input parsing
and codegen tasks part of the same queue.
Unfortunately it's not a complete solution, so a follow-up commit will
need to do something more drastic like not do the linker task queue at
the same time as codegen task queue.
From that point, it is possible to do more work at the same time but
that should be a separate branch. This one has gotten big enough.
If the "is darwin" check is moved below the libc_installation check
below, error.LibCInstallationMissingCrtDir is returned from
lci.resolveCrtPaths().
This should be revisited because it makes sense to check
libc_installation first even on darwin.
Anyway for now this more closely matches logic from master branch.
By making it a field of link.Elf, it is now accessible without a data
dependency on `files`, fixing a race condition with the codegen thread
and linker thread.
