Pat Hickey 89d741f8ae upgrade to target-lexicon 0.8.0
* the target-lexicon crate no longer has or needs the std feature
  in cargo, so we can delete all default-features=false, any mentions
  of its std feature, and the nostd configs in many lib.rs files
* the representation of arm architectures has changed, so some case
  statements needed refactoring

This crate contains array-based data structures used by the core Cranelift code generator which represent a set of small ordered sets or maps.

These are not general purpose data structures that are somehow magically faster that the standard library's BTreeSet and BTreeMap types.

The tradeoffs are different:

  • Keys and values are expected to be small and copyable. We optimize for 32-bit types.
  • A comparator object is used to compare keys, allowing smaller "context free" keys.
  • Empty trees have a very small 32-bit footprint.
  • All the trees in a forest can be cleared in constant time.
