Various refactors to the codegen coordinator code (part 3) Continuing from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/144062 this removes an option without any known users, uses the object crate in favor of LLVM for getting the LTO bitcode and improves the coordinator channel handling.
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.
