cg_llvm: split dwarf filename and comp dir
llvm-dwp concatenates `DW_AT_comp_dir` with `DW_AT_GNU_dwo_name` (only
when `DW_AT_comp_dir` exists), which can result in it failing to find
the DWARF object files.

In earlier testing, `DW_AT_comp_dir` wasn't present in the final
object and the current directory was the output directory.

When running tests through compiletest, the working directory of the
compilation is different from output directory and that resulted in
`DW_AT_comp_dir` being in the object file (and set to the current
working directory, rather than the output directory), and
`DW_AT_GNU_dwo_name` being set to the full path (rather than just
the filename), so llvm-dwp was failing.

This commit changes the compilation directory provided to LLVM to match
the output directory, where DWARF objects are output; and ensures that
only the filename is used for `DW_AT_GNU_dwo_name`.

The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR, and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code that runs towards the end of the compilation process.

For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
