Only produce .xz tarballs on CI
This PR adds a `./configure` option to choose which tarball compression formats to produce, and changes our CI configuration to only produce `.xz` tarballs. The release process will then recompress everything into `.gz` when producing a release.
This will drastically reduce our storage costs for CI artifacts, as we'd stop storing the same data twice. **Stable, beta and nightly releases will not be affected by this at all.**
Before landing this we'll need to increase the VM size of our release process, to recompress everything in a reasonable amount of time.

This implements support for applying PGO to the rustc compilation step (not
standard library or any tooling, including rustdoc). Expanding PGO to more tools
is not terribly difficult but will involve more work and greater CI time
commitment.
For the same reason of avoiding greater time commitment, this currently avoids
implementing for platforms outside of x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, though in
practice it should be quite simple to extend over time to more platforms. The
initial implementation is intentionally minimal here to avoid too much work
investment before we start seeing wins for a subset of Rust users.
The choice of workloads to profile here is somewhat arbitrary, but the general
rationale was to aim for a small set that largely avoided time regressions on
perf.rust-lang.org's full suite of crates. The set chosen is libcore, cargo (and
its dependencies), and a few ad-hoc stress tests from perf.rlo. The stress tests
are arguably the most controversial, but they benefit those cases (avoiding
regressions) and do not really remove wins from other benchmarks.
The primary next step after this PR lands is to implement support for PGO in
LLVM. It is unclear whether we can afford a full LLVM rebuild in CI, though, so
the approach taken there may need to be more staggered. rustc-only PGO seems
well affordable on linux at least, giving us up to 20% wall time wins on some
crates for 15 minutes of extra CI time (1 hour up from 45 minutes).
The PGO data is uploaded to allow others to reuse it if attempting to reproduce
the CI build or potentially, in the future, on other platforms where an
off-by-one strategy is used for dist builds at minimal performance cost.
This commit switches the x86_64-gnu-nopt builder to use Ubuntu 20.04,
which contains a more recent gdb version than Ubuntu 16.04 (newer gdb
versions fix a bug that Split DWARF can trigger, see
rust-lang/rust#77177 for motivation). x86_64-gnu-nopt is chosen because
it runs compare modes, which is how Split DWARF testing is implemented
in rust-lang/rust#77177.

It seems that by default the 32-bit headers are not actually installed
when installing development tooling. As we're using gcc headers,
we need to install them as an extra package.

Also removed the now unused arm tooling
Now with LLVM 9 being the minimum supported version, we can
finally remove the hacks in the dockerfile.
This wasn't in the main PR bumping the version as I didn't quite
understand what's going on and needed here.
apparently llvm-8-tools already had llvm-8-dev as a dependency
which was removed in llvm-9-tools, so we need to explicitly pull
llvm-9-dev to make a build
Demote i686-unknown-freebsd to tier 2 compiler target
While technically the `i686-unknown-freebsd` target has been a tier 2 development platform for a long time, with full toolchain tarballs available on static.rust-lang.org, due to a bug in the manifest generation the target was never available for download through rustup.
The infrastructure team privately inquired the FreeBSD package maintainers, and they weren't relying on those tarballs either, so it's a fair assumption to say practically nobody is using those tarballs.
This PR then removes the CI builder that produces full tarballs for the target, and moves the compilation of `rust-std` for the target in `dist-various-2`. The `x86_64-unknown-freebsd` target is *not* affected.

Test clippy on PR CI on changes
This runs the tools builder (which builds and tests tools, including clippy) when the clippy submodule changes. This essentially returns us to the prior state when clippy was a submodule; it makes sense for us to test it on CI when it changes. It might make sense for it to be tested regardless of changing but it is somewhat rare for it to fail and we don't want to add to CI time for the majority of PRs which don't affect it.
Fixes#76999.
Promote aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu to Tier 1
This PR promotes the `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu` target to Tier 1, as proposed by [RFC 2959]:
* The `aarch64-gnu` CI job is moved from `auto-fallible` to `auto`.
* The platform support documentation is updated, uplifting the target to Tiert 1 with a note about missing stack probes support.
* Building the documentation is enabled for the target, as we produce the `rust-docs` component for all Tier 1 platforms.

Historically we've disabled these assertions on a number of platforms with the
goal of speeding up CI. Now, though, having migrated to GitHub actions, CI is
already pretty fast, and these debug assertions do bring us some value.
This does leave in some debug assertions that are performance-related: macOS
currently hovers at just under 2 hours.
There are also some other builders which have debug and LLVM assertions
disabled:
llvm-8, PR builder:
In one view, this builder tests our support for older LLVMs. But in reality, a
lot of our tests already disable themselves on older LLVMs, and I think our
general stance is that we really only support the in-tree LLVM. Plus, we really
want CI times on this builder to be really low, as it's run on *every* PR --
that's a lot of CI time.
test-various:
This disables debug asserts still -- as noted in the Dockerfile, we test code
size, and we need debug asserts off for that to work well.
This was recommended by GitHub Support to try reducing the things that
could've caused #78743. I checked the changelog and there should be no
practical impact for us (we already set an explicit fetch-depth).

This PR then removes the CI builder that produces full tarballs for the

dist-various-2.
The x86_64-unknown-freebsd target is *not* affected.
The former `ubuntu:19.10` reached EOL in July, 2020, whereas
`ubuntu:20.04` is an LTS release supported until 2025.
These are non-dist CI images, so the impact should be low.
Dist build manifest
This PR makes two changes that should remove a significant chunk of the time spent in our release process: cloning the `rust-lang/rust` monorepo, all its submodules, and building `bootstrap` to then invoke `build-manifest`:
* `build-manifest` doesn't rely on a clone of the monorepo being present anymore. The only remaining bit of information it fetched from it (the Rust version) is instead bundled in the binary.
* A new "component" is added, `build-manifest`. That component includes a prebuilt version of the tool, and it's *not* included in the Rustup manifest. This will allow `promote-release` to directly invoke the tool without interacting with our build system.
* The Linux x86_64 CI is changed to also build the component mentioned above. It's the only CI builder tasked to do so, and to cleanly support this a new `--include-default-paths` flag was added to `./x.py`.
* The `BUILD_MANIFEST_NUM_THREADS` environment variable is added to configure the number of threads at runtime.

ci: Fix riscv64gc linux test QEMU fault, plus doc link fix
Newer versions of the `qemu` package (used for riscv64gc-unknown-linux-gnu testing) don't work with the version of the RISC-V bootloader we were using. a4a0342cf5 bumps to a revision which should fix the problem.

Stop running macOS builds on Azure Pipelines
The Infrastructure Team agreed to migrate macOS builds to GitHub Actions, so this commit stops running those builders on Azure Pipelines. The GitHub Actions runners are already configured to upload to the production bucket.
We can't still fully remove the Azure Pipelines configuration, as we still need to have that available until no stable releases run any of their builds on Azure Pipelines anymore. I'll open an issue to track fully removing our Azure Pipelines setup once the PR is merged.

Ensure that all LLVM components requested by tests are available on CI
Addresses https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/75064#issuecomment-667722652
I used an environment variable because passing a command line option all the way from CI to compiletest would be just too much hassle for this task.
I added a new variable, but any of the already existing ones defined by CI could be used instead.
