Rollup merge of #143387 - dpaoliello:shouldpanicfn, r=bjorn3

Make __rust_alloc_error_handler_should_panic a function

Fixes rust-lang/rust#143253

`__rust_alloc_error_handler_should_panic` is a static but was being exported as a function.

For most targets this doesn't matter, but Arm64EC Windows uses different decorations for exported variables vs functions, hence it fails to link when `-Z oom=abort` is enabled.

We've had issues in the past with statics like this (see rust-lang/rust#141061) but the tldr; is that Arm64EC needs symbols correctly exported as either a function or data, and data MUST and MUST ONLY be marked `dllimport` when the symbol is being imported from another binary, which is non-trivial to calculate for these compiler-generated statics.

So, instead, the easiest thing to do is to make `__rust_alloc_error_handler_should_panic` a function instead.

Since `__rust_alloc_error_handler_should_panic` isn't involved in any linking shenanigans, I've marked it as `AlwaysInline` with the hopes that the various backends will see that it is just returning a constant and perform the same optimizations as the previous implementation.

Website | Getting started | Learn | Documentation | Contributing

This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.

Why Rust?

  • Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.

  • Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.

  • Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
