Pick the correct softfloat mode based on bitness:

  • -mabi=lp64 for 64 bit RISC-V (longs and pointers 64 bit, integers 32 bit, no fp registers)
  • -mabi=ilp32 for 32-bit RISC-V (integers, longs and pointers 32-bit, no fp registers)

Currently it fails for rv32 due to a conflict between the ABI and arch:

cc1: error: ABI requires -march=rv64

Update cc, git2, num_cpus.

This updates the `cc` crate, bringing in better parallel building support. Also updates `git2` which enables the parallel feature. (Note: I don't expect it will have a significant impact on build time, but seems good to update anyways.)

The main thorn is that `cc` gained knowledge about RISC-V architectures (rust-lang/cc-rs#428, rust-lang/cc-rs#429, rust-lang/cc-rs#430), but the builders on CI do not have the riscv C compiler installed. This means that bootstraps' cc detection was finding a C compiler that isn't installed, and fails.

The solution here is to override the cc detection to `false`. The C compiler isn't actually used on riscv platforms. AFAIK, the only location would be compiler_builtins, and it currently forces C support off (https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-builtins/blob/a533ae9c5aa325db209659679535fe1f186eae81/build.rs#L49-L55).

Other possible solutions:
- Add the override in cc_detect for riscv (or any "no-C" platform like wasm32 and nvptx)
- Install and use the appropriate c compiler. I tried this the `g++-riscv64-linux-gnu` package, but it failed missing some header file.

Closes rust-lang#66232
