implement builtin.zig file population for all modules rather than
assuming there is only one global builtin.zig module.
move some fields from link.File to Compilation
move some fields from Module to Compilation
compute debug_format in global Compilation config resolution
wire up C compilation to the concept of owner modules
make whole cache mode call link.File.createEmpty() instead of
link.File.open()
Commit 97e23896a9168132b6d36ca22ae1af10dd53d80d regressed this behavior
because it made target_util.supportsStackProtector *correctly*
notice which zig backend is being used to generate code, while the
logic calling that function *incorrectly assumed* that .zig code is being
compiled, when in reality it might be only C code being compiled.
This commit adjusts the option resolution logic for stack protector so
that it takes into account the zig backend only if there is a zig
compilation unit. A separate piece of logic checks whether clang
supports stack protector for a given target.

Much of the logic from Compilation.create() is extracted into
Compilation.Config.resolve() which accepts many optional settings and
produces concrete settings. This separate step is needed by API users of
Compilation so that they can pass the resolved global settings to the
Module creation function, which itself needs to resolve per-Module
settings.
Since the target and other things are no longer global settings, I did
not want them stored in link.File (in the `options` field). That options
field was already a kludge; those options should be resolved into
concrete settings. This commit also starts to work on that, deleting
link.Options, moving the fields into Compilation and
ObjectFormat-specific structs instead. Some fields were ephemeral and
should not have been stored at all, such as symbol_size_hint.
The link.File object of Compilation is now a `?*link.File` and `null`
when -fno-emit-bin is passed. It is now arena-allocated along with
Compilation itself, avoiding some messy cleanup code that was there
before.
On the command line, it is now possible to configure the standard
library itself by using `--mod std` just like any other module. This
meant that the CLI needed to create the standard library module rather
than having Compilation create it.
There are a lot of changes in this commit and it's still not done. I
didn't realize how quickly this changeset was going to balloon out of
control, and there are still many lines that need to be changed before
it even compiles successfully.
* introduce std.Build.Cache.HashHelper.oneShot
* add error_tracing to std.Build.Module
* extract build.zig file generation into src/Builtin.zig
* each CSourceFile and RcSourceFile now has a Module owner, which
determines some of the C compiler flags.
Finish the work started in 4c4fb839972f66f55aa44fc0aca5f80b0608c731.
Now the compiler compiles again.
Wire up dependency tree fetching code in the CLI for `zig build`.
Everything is hooked up except for `createDependenciesModule` is not yet
implemented.
* start renaming "package" to "module" (see #14307)
- build system gains `main_mod_path` and `main_pkg_path` is still
there but it is deprecated.
* eliminate the object-oriented memory management style of what was
previously `*Package`. Now it is `*Package.Module` and all pointers
point to externally managed memory.
* fixes to get the new Fetch.zig code working. The previous commit was
work-in-progress. There are still two commented out code paths, the
one that leads to `Compilation.create` and the one for `zig build`
that fetches the entire dependency tree and creates the required
modules for the build runner.
