For NVPTX
-Ctarget-cpuneeds to be the same in all crates linked together into a binary.This PR converts
-Ctarget-cpuinto a target-modifier. However, the agreement about it is only enforced when compiling for specific targets based on a flag in the target specification. This makes-Ctarget-cpueffectively a target-modifier only for NVPTX, for which this flag is set.Previous discussions about this topic can be found here and here.
I also created a Zulip discussion.
I am unsure if a MCP is needed before proceeding. If you think so please let me know.
Creating target-modifiers for NVPTX target-features is to be done in a follow-up.
cc @kjetilkjeka as target maintainer for NVPTX
cc @Flakebi as you might need the same feature for amdgpu
cc @RalfJung you were very involved in the discussions so far
