Turns out that RtlCaptureStackBackTrace is actually just doing FP (ebp)
unwinding under the hood, making this logic completely redundant with
our own FP-walking implementation; see added comment for details.

Previously, the `test-stack-traces` step was essentially just testing
error traces, and even there we didn't have much coverage. This commit
solves that by splitting the "stack trace" tests into two separate
harnesses: the "stack trace" tests are for actual stack traces (i.e.
involving stack unwinding), while the "error trace" tests are
specifically for error return traces.
The "stack trace" tests will test different configurations of:
* `-lc`
* `-fPIE`
* `-fomit-frame-pointer`
* `-fllvm`
* unwind tables (currently disabled)
* strip debug info (currently disabled)
The main goal there is to test *stack unwinding* under different
conditions. Meanwhile, the "error trace" tests will test different
configurations of `-O` and `-fllvm`; the main goal here, aside from
checking that error traces themselves do not miscompile, is to check
whether debug info is still working even in optimized builds. Of course,
aggressive optimizations *can* thwart debug info no matter what, so as
before, there is a way to disable cases for specific targets / optimize
modes.
The program which converts stack traces into a more validatable format
by removing things like addresses (previously `check-stack-trace.zig`,
now `convert-stack-trace.zig`) has been rewritten and simplified. Also,
thanks to various fixes in this branch, several workarounds have become
unnecessary: for instance, we don't need to ignore the function name
printed in stack traces in release modes, because `std.debug.Dwarf` now
uses the correct DIE for inlined functions!
Neither `test-stack-traces` nor `test-error-traces` does general foreign
architecture testing, because it seems that (at least for now) external
executors often aren't particularly good at handling stack tracing
correctly (looking at you, Wine). Generally, they just test the native
target (this matches the old behavior of `test-stack-traces`). However,
there is one exception: when on an x86_64 or aarch64 host, we will also
test the 32-bit version (x86 or arm) if the OS supports it, because such
executables can be trivially tested without an external executor.
Oh, also, I wrote a bunch of stack trace tests. Previously there was,
erm, *one* test in `test-stack-traces` which wasn't for error traces.
Now there are a good few!

It was possible for `arg6` to be passed as an operand relative to esp.
In that case, the `push` at the top clobbered esp and hence made the
reference to arg6 invalid. This was manifesting in this branch as broken
stack traces on x86-linux due to an `mmap2` syscall accidentally passing
the page offset as non-zero!
This commit fixes a bug introduced in cb0e6d8aa.

The API of `std.debug.Pdb` changed.

We mustn't emit the DT_PLTGOT entry in `.dynamic` in a statically-linked
PIE, because there's no dl to relocate it (and `std.pie.relocate`, or
the PIE relocator in libc, won't touch it). In that case, there cannot
be any PLT entries, so there's no point emitting the `.got.plt` section
at all. If we just don't create that section, `link.Elf` already knows
not to add the DT_PLTGOT entry to `.dynamic`.

This abstraction isn't really tied to DWARF at all! Really, we're just
loading some information from an ELF file which is useful for debugging.
That *includes* DWARF, but it also includes other information. For
instance, the other change here:
Now, if DWARF information is missing, `debug.SelfInfo.ElfModule` will
name symbols by finding a matching symtab entry. We actually already do
this on Mach-O, so it makes obvious sense to do the same on ELF! This
change is what motivated the restructuring to begin with.
The symtab work is derived from #22077.

If it's not given, we should set `first_address` to the return address
of `dumpCurrentStackTrace` to avoid the call to `writeCurrentStackTrace`
appearing in the trace. However, we must only do that if no `context` is
given; if there's a context then we're starting the stack unwind
elsewhere.

It's now user-overrideable, and uses `noreturn` types to neatly stop
analysis.
|
|
...using `RtlVirtualUnwind` on x86_64 and aarch64, and
`RtaCaptureStackBackTrace` on x86.

At least, when there's not a ZigObject. The old behavior was incorrect
in the presence of a ZigObject, and this doesn't really mix nicely with
incremental compilation anyway; but when the objects are all external,
we may as well build the search table.

Far simpler, because everything which `crash_report.zig` did is now
handled pretty well by `std.debug` anyway. All we want is to print some
context around panics and segfaults. Using the new ability to override
the default segfault handler while still having std handle the
target-specific bits for us, that's really simple.

...in that it isn't: it's currently very specialized to DWARF unwinding.
Also, make a type unmanaged.
|
|
untested because this branch has errors rn
|

src/crash_handler.zig is still TODO though, i am planning bigger changes there

turns out this actually has coverage in std.debug

The downside of this commit is that more precise errors are no longer
propagated up. However, these errors were pretty useless in isolation
due to them having no context; and regardless, we intentionally swallow
most of them in `std.debug` anyway. Therefore, this is better in
practice, because it allows `std.debug` to give slightly more useful
warnings when handling errors. This commit does that for unwind errors,
for instance, which differentiate between the unwind info being corrupt
vs missing vs inaccessible vs unsupported.
A better solution would be to also include more detailed information via
the diagnostics pattern, but this commit is an incremental improvement.

turns out this isn't technically specific to that target at all; other
targets just don't emit mid-function 'ret' instructions as much so
certain CFI instruction patterns were only seen on aarch64.
thanks to jacob for finding the bug <3
