Auto merge of #107651 - Kobzol:ci-single-cgu, r=<try>

[WIP] Build `rustc` with a single CGU on x64 Linux

Follow-up attempt to #87650. I wonder if anything changed with the addition of LTO.

I also enabled a single CGU only for the actual build of the compiler on CI, so that we can better see the perf. effects on the bootstrap benchmark.
