bors d7bffc302e Auto merge of #14280 - Flowrey:dry-run-install, r=weihanglo
Add a `--dry-run` flag to the `install` command

### What does this PR try to resolve?

This PR add the `--dry-run` flag to the `cargo install` command (see #11123).
I've tried to do the bare minimal for this flag to work without changing anything in the output.

In my opinion, the `--dry-run` flag should mimic as close as possible the behavior of the normal command to avoid missing potential issue in the normal execution. ~~Currently we're missing information about where the binary will be installed.~~

Unlike #13598 this PR:
- Include as much of the compilation process as possible without actually compiling
- use the information provided by `BuildContext` instead of `InstallablePackage::new`
- in the same way as `unit_graph`, it add a `dry_run` to the `CompileOptions` and return a `Compilation::new` from the function `compile_ws` without actually compiling.
- keeps the output the same rather than adding  status messages indicating which very broad actions would be performed
- ~~remove some warning not relevant in the case of  a `--dry-run`~~

Like #13598, the version check and crate downloads still occur.

### How should we test and review this PR?

The first commit include a unit tests to ensure that no binary is actually installed after the dry run.
There is also a snapshot test that show the diff output of the `--help` flag.

### Additional information

Tests and documentation done in #13598, may be cherry picked into this PR if needed.

Cargo

Cargo downloads your Rust projects dependencies and compiles your project.

To start using Cargo, learn more at The Cargo Book.

To start developing Cargo itself, read the Cargo Contributor Guide.

Code Status

CI

Code documentation: https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/cargo/

Installing Cargo

Cargo is distributed by default with Rust, so if you've got rustc installed locally you probably also have cargo installed locally.

Compiling from Source

Requirements

Cargo requires the following tools and packages to build:

Other requirements:

The following are optional based on your platform and needs.

  • pkg-config — This is used to help locate system packages, such as libssl headers/libraries. This may not be required in all cases, such as using vendored OpenSSL, or on Windows.

  • OpenSSL — Only needed on Unix-like systems and only if the vendored-openssl Cargo feature is not used.

    This requires the development headers, which can be obtained from the libssl-dev package on Ubuntu or openssl-devel with apk or yum or the openssl package from Homebrew on macOS.

    If using the vendored-openssl Cargo feature, then a static copy of OpenSSL will be built from source instead of using the system OpenSSL. This may require additional tools such as perl and make.

    On macOS, common installation directories from Homebrew, MacPorts, or pkgsrc will be checked. Otherwise it will fall back to pkg-config.

    On Windows, the system-provided Schannel will be used instead.

    LibreSSL is also supported.

Optional system libraries:

The build will automatically use vendored versions of the following libraries. However, if they are provided by the system and can be found with pkg-config, then the system libraries will be used instead:

  • libcurl — Used for network transfers.
  • libgit2 — Used for fetching git dependencies.
  • libssh2 — Used for SSH access to git repositories.
  • libz (aka zlib) — Used for data compression.

It is recommended to use the vendored versions as they are the versions that are tested to work with Cargo.

Compiling

First, you'll want to check out this repository

git clone https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo.git
cd cargo

With cargo already installed, you can simply run:

cargo build --release

Adding new subcommands to Cargo

Cargo is designed to be extensible with new subcommands without having to modify Cargo itself. See the Wiki page for more details and a list of known community-developed subcommands.

Releases

Cargo releases coincide with Rust releases. High level release notes are available as part of Rust's release notes. Detailed release notes are available in this repo at CHANGELOG.md.
