cg_llvm: Move target machine command-line quoting from C++ to Rust When this code was introduced in rust-lang/rust#130446 and rust-lang/rust#131805, it was complicated by the need to maintain compatibility with earlier versions of LLVM. Now that LLVM 20 is the baseline (rust-lang/rust#145071), we can do all of the quoting in pure Rust code, and pass two flat strings to LLVM to be used as-is. --- In this PR, my priority has been to preserve the existing behaviour as much as possible, without worrying too much about what the behaviour *should* be. (Though I did avoid a leading space before the first argument.)
This directory currently contains some LLVM support code. This will generally be sent upstream to LLVM in time; for now it lives here. NOTE: the LLVM C++ ABI is subject to between-version breakage and must *never* be exposed to Rust. To allow for easy auditing of that, all Rust-exposed types must be typedef-ed as "LLVMXyz", or "LLVMRustXyz" if they were defined here. Functions that return a failure status and leave the error in the LLVM last error should return an LLVMRustResult rather than an int or anything to avoid confusion. When translating enums, add a single `Other` variant as the first one to allow for new variants to be added. It should abort when used as an input. All other types must not be typedef-ed as such.
