So far handling some indirectly recursive types, such as pointer types, has relied on LLVM metadata uniquing in a very implicit way. This could cause some inconsistencies in the debuginfo, and sometimes to hard to trace LLVM assertions. With this commit unique type IDs and the TypeMap are used to explicitly make sure that no inconsistencies exist, and, if in the future some regression re-introduces one, give a better error message instead of the hard-to-interpret LLVM error.

fix: Don't duplicate sysroot crates in rustc workspace Since we handle `library` as the sysroot source directly in the rustc workspace, we now duplicate the crates there, once as sysroot and once as just plain workspace crate. This causes a variety of issues for `vec!` macros and similar that emit `$crate` tokens across crates.
