introduce operating system version ranges as part of the target
* re-introduce `std.build.Target` which is distinct from `std.Target`.
   `std.build.Target` wraps `std.Target` so that it can be annotated as
   "the native target" or an explicitly specified target.
 * `std.Target.Os` is moved to `std.Target.Os.Tag`. The former is now a
   struct which has the tag as well as version range information.
 * `std.elf` gains some more ELF header constants.
 * `std.Target.parse` gains the ability to parse operating system
   version ranges as well as glibc version.
 * Added `std.Target.isGnuLibC()`.
 * self-hosted dynamic linker detection and glibc version detection.
   This also adds the improved logic using `/usr/bin/env` rather than
   invoking the system C compiler to find the dynamic linker when zig
   is statically linked. Related: #2084
   Note: this `/usr/bin/env` code is work-in-progress.
 * `-target-glibc` CLI option is removed in favor of the new `-target`
   syntax. Example: `-target x86_64-linux-gnu.2.27`

closes #1907

rework and improve some of the zig build steps
* `RunStep` moved to lib/std/build/run.zig and gains ability to compare
   output and exit code against expected values. Multiple redundant
   locations in the test harness code are replaced to use `RunStep`.
 * `WriteFileStep` moved to lib/std/build/write_file.zig and gains
   ability to write more than one file into the cache directory, for
   when the files need to be relative to each other. This makes
   usage of `WriteFileStep` no longer problematic when parallelizing
   zig build.
 * Added `CheckFileStep`, which can be used to validate that the output
   of another step produced a valid file. Multiple redundant locations
   in the test harness code are replaced to use `CheckFileStep`.
 * Added `TranslateCStep`. This exposes `zig translate-c` to the build
   system, which is likely to be rarely useful by most Zig users;
   however Zig's own test suite uses it both for translate-c tests and
   for run-translated-c tests.
 * Refactored ad-hoc code to handle source files coming from multiple
   kinds of sources, into `std.build.FileSource`.
 * Added `std.build.Builder.addExecutableFromWriteFileStep`.
 * Added `std.build.Builder.addExecutableSource`.
 * Added `std.build.Builder.addWriteFiles`.
 * Added `std.build.Builder.addTranslateC`.
 * Added `std.build.LibExeObjStep.addCSourceFileSource`.
 * Added `std.build.LibExeObjStep.addAssemblyFileFromWriteFileStep`.
 * Added `std.build.LibExeObjStep.addAssemblyFileSource`.
 * Exposed `std.fs.base64_encoder`.
