Make intrinsic fallback bodies cross-crate inlineable

This change was prompted by the stage1 compiler spending 4% of its time
when compiling the polymorphic-recursion MIR opt test in `unlikely`.

Intrinsic fallback bodies like `unlikely` should always be inlined, it's
very silly if they are not. To do this, we enable the fallback bodies to
be cross-crate inlineable. Not that this matters for our workloads since
the compiler never actually _uses_ the "fallback bodies", it just uses
whatever was cfg(bootstrap)ped, so I've also added `#[inline]` to those.

 Many intrinsics can be written in pure rust, albeit inefficiently or without supporting
 some features that only exist on some backends. Backends can simply not implement those
 intrinsics without causing any code miscompilations or failures to compile.
+All intrinsic fallback bodies are automatically made cross-crate inlineable (like `#[inline]`)
