A new `Legalize.Feature` tag is introduced for each float bit width
(16/32/64/80/128). When e.g. `soft_f16` is enabled, all arithmetic and
comparison operations on `f16` are converted to calls to the appropriate
compiler_rt function using the new AIR tag `.legalize_compiler_rt_call`.
This includes casts where the source *or* target type is `f16`, or
integer<=>float conversions to or from `f16`. Occasionally, operations
are legalized to blocks because there is extra code required; for
instance, legalizing `@floatFromInt` where the integer type is larger
than 64 bits requires calling an arbitrary-width integer conversion
function which accepts a pointer to the integer, so we need to use
`alloc` to create such a pointer, and store the integer there (after
possibly zero-extending or sign-extending it).
No backend currently uses these new legalizations (and as such, no
backend currently needs to implement `.legalize_compiler_rt_call`).
However, for testing purposes, I tried modifying the self-hosted x86_64
backend to enable all of the soft-float features (and implement the AIR
instruction). This modified backend was able to pass all of the behavior
tests (except for one `@mod` test where the LLVM backend has a bug
resulting in incorrect compiler-rt behavior!), including the tests
specific to the self-hosted x86_64 backend.
`f16` and `f80` legalizations are likely of particular interest to
backend developers, because most architectures do not have instructions
to operate on these types. However, enabling *all* of these legalization
passes can be useful when developing a new backend to hit the ground
running and pass a good amount of tests more easily.

I had tried unrolling the loops to avoid requiring the
`vector_store_elem` instruction, but it's arguably a problem to generate
O(N) code for an operation on `@Vector(N, T)`. In addition, that
lowering emitted a lot of `.aggregate_init` instructions, which is
itself a quite difficult operation to codegen.
This requires reintroducing runtime vector indexing internally. However,
I've put it in a couple of instructions which are intended only for use
by `Air.Legalize`, named `legalize_vec_elem_val` (like `array_elem_val`,
but for indexing a vector with a runtime-known index) and
`legalize_vec_store_elem` (like the old `vector_store_elem`
instruction). These are explicitly documented as *not* being emitted by
Sema, so need only be implemented by backends if they actually use an
`Air.Legalize.Feature` which emits them (otherwise they can be marked as
`unreachable`).

I started this diff trying to remove a little dead code from the C
backend, but ended up finding a bunch of dead code sprinkled all over
the place:
* `packed` handling in the C backend which was made dead by `Legalize`
* Representation of pointers to runtime-known vector indices
* Handling for the `vector_store_elem` AIR instruction (now removed)
* Old tuple handling from when they used the InternPool repr of structs
* Straightforward unused functions
* TODOs in the LLVM backend for features which Zig just does not support

and delete deprecated alias std.io

until now these were stringly typed.
it's kinda obvious when you think about it.

Introduces `std.fmt.alt` which is a helper for calling alternate format
methods besides one named "format".

This safety check was completely broken; it triggered unchecked illegal
behavior *in order to implement the safety check*. You definitely can't
do that! Instead, we must explicitly check the boundaries. This is a
tiny bit fiddly, because we need to make sure we do floating-point
rounding in the correct direction, and also handle the fact that the
operation truncates so the boundary works differently for min vs max.
Instead of implementing this safety check in Sema, there are now
dedicated AIR instructions for safety-checked intfromfloat (two
instructions; which one is used depends on the float mode). Currently,
no backend directly implements them; instead, a `Legalize.Feature` is
added which expands the safety check, and this feature is enabled for
all backends we currently test, including the LLVM backend.
The `u0` case is still handled in Sema, because Sema needs to check for
that anyway due to the comptime-known result. The old safety check here
was also completely broken and has therefore been rewritten. In that
case, we just check for 'abs(input) < 1.0'.
I've added a bunch of test coverage for the boundary cases of
`@intFromFloat`, both for successes (in `test/behavior/cast.zig`) and
failures (in `test/cases/safety/`).
Resolves: #24161

Runtime `@shuffle` has two cases which backends generally want to handle
differently for efficiency:
* One runtime vector operand; some result elements may be comptime-known
* Two runtime vector operands; some result elements may be undefined
The latter case happens if both vectors given to `@shuffle` are
runtime-known and they are both used (i.e. the mask refers to them).
Otherwise, if the result is not entirely comptime-known, we are in the
former case. `Sema` now diffentiates these two cases in the AIR so that
backends can easily handle them however they want to. Note that this
*doesn't* really involve Sema doing any more work than it would
otherwise need to, so there's not really a negative here!
Most existing backends have their lowerings for `@shuffle` migrated in
this commit. The LLVM backend uses new lowerings suggested by Jacob as
ones which it will handle effectively. The x86_64 backend has not yet
been migrated; for now there's a panic in there. Jacob will implement
that before this is merged anywhere.

Each target can opt into different sets of legalize features.
By performing these transformations before liveness, instructions
that become unreferenced will have up-to-date liveness information.
