This ensures that the failure cases for finding the codegen backend and for finding the rustc binary are essentially the same, and since we almost always will load the codegen backend, this is essentially meaning that the rustc change is not a regression.
This allows overriding the rustc binary used to build tests; it should not generally be necessary as we fallback to the sysroot.

…eGomez rustdoc: change doctests locating rustc binary We previously used the "naive" approach of replacing the `current_exe()`'s file name with rustc, but now load from the sysroot by default (`$sysroot/bin/rustc`). The functionality of locating the sysroot overlaps/is the same as the functionality used by codegen backend loading; this ensures that any failure cases we've introduced are not exceeding those, and that improvements to finding the sysroot for loading codegen backends likewise enhance rustdoc. The second commit adds an unstable `--test-builder` flag to rustdoc, and is largely separate (I can split into separate PR, but it's a simple and related change). This is largely intended for "advanced" users at this point (I'm not sure if we'll ever stabilize it); it permits use of a different rustc binary for rustdoc compilation of doctests than the rustdoc binary used when loading. Note, that this may not be what you want as the parsers and such differ (and rustdoc uses its own libsyntax, etc.). However, I've been told that running doctests in miri may be assisted by this change, so I've implemented it; I'll file a tracking issue for it if there's interest in it (and we land this PR).
