rustc_codegen_llvm relied on Deref impls where Deref::Target was or contained an extern type - in my experimental implementation of rust-lang/rfcs#3729, this isn't possible as the Target associated type's ?Sized bound cannot be relaxed backwards compatibly (unless we come up with some way of doing this).

In later pull requests with the rust-lang/rfcs#3729 implementation, breakage like this could only occur for nightly users relying on the extern_types feature.

Upstreaming this to avoid needing to keep carrying this patch locally, and I think it'll necessarily need to change eventually.

I think using fn deref without actually implementing Deref is confusing. A name like fn [get_]raw would be a lot better imo.

r=me after changing it to that
