[debuginfo] Emit associated type bindings in trait object type names.

This PR updates debuginfo type name generation for trait objects to include associated type bindings and auto trait bounds -- so that, for example, the debuginfo type name of `&dyn Iterator<Item=Foo>` and `&dyn Iterator<Item=Bar>` don't both map to just `&dyn Iterator` anymore.

The following table shows examples of debuginfo type names before and after the PR:
| type | before |  after |
|------|---------|-------|
| `&dyn Iterator<Item=u32>>` | `&dyn Iterator` | `&dyn Iterator<Item=u32>` |
| `&(dyn Iterator<Item=u32>> + Sync)` | `&dyn Iterator` | `&(dyn Iterator<Item=u32> + Sync)` |
| `&(dyn SomeTrait<bool, i8, Bar=u32>> + Send)` | `&dyn SomeTrait<bool, i8>` | `&(dyn SomeTrait<bool, i8, Bar=u32>> + Send)`  |

For targets that need C++-like type names, we use `assoc$<Item,u32>` instead of `Item=u32`:
| type | before |  after |
|------|---------|-------|
| `&dyn Iterator<Item=u32>>` | `ref$<dyn$<Iterator> >` | `ref$<dyn$<Iterator<assoc$<Item,u32> > > >` |
| `&(dyn Iterator<Item=u32>> + Sync)` | `ref$<dyn$<Iterator> >` | `ref$<dyn$<Iterator<assoc$<Item,u32> >,Sync> >` |
| `&(dyn SomeTrait<bool, i8, Bar=u32>> + Send)` | `ref$<dyn$<SomeTrait<bool, i8> > >` | `ref$<dyn$<SomeTrait<bool,i8,assoc$<Bar,u32> > >,Send> >`  |

The PR also adds self-profiling measurements for debuginfo type name generation (re. https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/86431). It looks like the compiler spends up to 0.5% of its time in that task, so the potential for optimizing it via caching seems limited.

However, the perf run also shows [the biggest regression](https://perf.rust-lang.org/detailed-query.html?commit=585e91c718b0b2c5319e1fffd0ff1e62aaf7ccc2&base_commit=b9197978a90be6f7570741eabe2da175fec75375&benchmark=tokio-webpush-simple-debug&run_name=incr-unchanged) in a test case that does not even invoke the code in question. This suggests that the length of the names we generate here can affect performance by influencing how much data the linker has to copy around.
