Nicholas Nethercote a13be655a5 Avoid unnecessary line lookup.
`lookup_debug_loc` calls `SourceMap::lookup_line`, which does a binary
search over the files, and then a binary search over the lines within
the found file. It then calls `SourceFile::line_begin_pos`, which redoes
the binary search over the lines within the found file.

This commit removes the second binary search over the lines, instead
getting the line starting pos directly using the result of the first
binary search over the lines.

(And likewise for `get_span_loc`, in the cranelift backend.)

The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR, and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code that runs towards the end of the compilation process.

For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
