Auto merge of #2045 - RalfJung:strict-provenance, r=RalfJung
add -Zmiri-strict-provenance
This implements [strict provenance](rust-lang/rust#95228) in Miri. The only change is that casting an integer to a pointer does not even attempt to produce a good provenance for the given address; instead, it always uses the invalid provenance. This stricter than even `-Zmiri-tag-raw-pointers` in that it also rejects the following example (which does not even involve Stacked Borrows):
```rust
fn main() {
let x = 22;
let ptr = &x as *const _ as *const u8;
let roundtrip = ptr as usize as *const u8;
let _ = unsafe { roundtrip.offset(1) };
}
```
The new flag also implies `-Zmiri-tag-raw-pointers` since the only reason one would *not* want to tag raw pointers is to support ptr-int-ptr roundtrips.
Note that the flag does *not* check against ptr-to-int *transmutes*; that still requires `-Zmiri-check-number-validity`. You can also check for strict provenance *without* Stacked Borrows by adding `-Zmiri-disable-stacked-borrows`.
The new "Miri hard mode" flags for maximal checking are `-Zmiri-strict-provenance -Zmiri-check-number-validity`. (Add `-Zmiri-symbolic-alignment-check` if you feel extra spicy today.)
