Include debug info for the allocator shim #88550

Issue Details:
In some cases it is necessary to generate an "allocator shim" to forward various Rust allocation functions (e.g., __rust_alloc) to an underlying function (e.g., malloc). However, since this allocator shim is a manually created LLVM module it is not processed via the normal module processing code and so no debug info is generated for it (if debugging info is enabled).

Fix Details:

  • Modify the debuginfo code to allow creating debug info for a module without a CodegenCx (since it is difficult, and expensive, to create one just to emit some debug info).
  • After creating the allocator shim add in basic debug info.
