Previously, a stack frame was always allocated and the return address
always saved in the stack frame.  This is not necessary if the function
is a leaf function (no calls to other functions) and has no stack-allocated
variables.

TSan should handle `Effect.Unhandled` correctly
…aml#12468)

* Move the `[[noreturn]]` attribute to the front of the declarations in <caml/*.h>
Needed in C++17.

* Move the `[[noreturn]]` attribute to the front of the definitions
Also needed in C 23, meaning that the move must be applied
to source files and internal header files as well.

* Document that `CAMLnoret` must occur first in declarations

…ternals (ocaml#12611)

* file_formats/cmx_format.mli: fix documentation

The documentation wrongly claimed that the module defines
the cmxs format whereas this is not true, this format being defined
in is own module, cmxs_format.mli.

* Remove the dependency of the cmo and cmxs file formats on compiler internals

An invocation such as `ocamlc` (without any command-line parameters),
or `ocamlc -o a.out` will now fail with an error message and an error
code.

The toplevel printer detects cycles by keeping a hashtable of values
that it has already traversed.

However, some OCaml runtime types (at least bigarrays) may be
partially uninitialized, and hashing them at arbitrary program points
may read uninitialized memory. In particular, the OCaml testsuite
fails when running with a memory-sanitizer enabled, as bigarray
printing results in reads to uninitialized memory:

SUMMARY: MemorySanitizer: use-of-uninitialized-value /var/home/edwin/git/ocaml/runtime/bigarray.c:486:45 in caml_ba_hash
```

The only use of hashing in genprintval is to avoid cycles, that is, it
is only useful for OCaml values that contain other OCaml values
(including possibly themselves). Bigarrays cannot introduce cycles,
and they are always printed as "<abstr>" anyway.

The present commit proposes to be more conservative in which values
are hashed by the cycle detector to avoid this issue: we skip hashing
any value with tag above No_scan_tag -- which may not contain any
OCaml values.
