Auto merge of #68665 - eddyb:debuginfo-early-create-var, r=nagisa
codegen: create DIVariables ahead of using them with llvm.dbg.declare.
Instead of having `rustc_codegen_llvm` bundle creation of a `DIVariable` and `llvm.dbg.declare` into a single operation, they are now two separate methods, and the `DIVariable` is created earlier, specifically when `mir::VarDebugInfo`s are being partitioned into locals.
While this isn't currently needed, it's a prerequisite for #48300, which adds fragmented debuginfo, where one `mir::VarDebugInfo` has multiple parts of itself mapped to different `mir::Place`s.
For debuggers to see one composite variable instead of several ones with the same name, we need to create a single `DIVariable` and share it between multiple `llvm.dbg.declare` calls, which are likely pointing to different MIR locals.
That makes the `per_local_var_debug_info` partitioning a good spot to do this in, as we can create *exactly* one `DIVariable` per `mir::VarDebugInfo`, and refer to it as many things as needed.
I'm opening this PR separately because I want to test its perf impact in isolation (see #48300 (comment)).
