These were previously in the panic_unwind crate with dummy stubs in the
panic_abort crate. However it turns out that this is insufficient: we
still need a proper personality function even with -C panic=abort to
handle the following cases:
extern "C-unwind"still needs to catch foreign exceptions with -Cpanic=abort to turn them into aborts. This requires landing pads and a
personality function.
ARM EHABI uses the personality function when creating backtraces.
The dummy personality function in panic_abort was causing backtrace
generation to get stuck in a loop since the personality function is
responsible for advancing the unwind state to the next frame.
Fixes #41004
