1. sess: default to v0 symbol mangling …

   Rust's current mangling scheme depends on compiler internals; loses
   information about generic parameters (and other things) which makes for
   a worse experience when using external tools that need to interact with
   Rust symbol names; is inconsistent; and can contain `.` characters
   which aren't universally supported. Therefore, Rust has defined its own
   symbol mangling scheme which is defined in terms of the Rust language,
   not the compiler implementation; encodes information about generic
   parameters in a reversible way; has a consistent definition; and
   generates symbols that only use the characters `A-Z`, `a-z`, `0-9`, and
   `_`.
   
   Support for the new Rust symbol mangling scheme has been added to
   upstream tools that will need to interact with Rust symbols (e.g.
   debuggers).
   
   This commit changes the default symbol mangling scheme from the legacy
   scheme to the new Rust mangling scheme.
