Wire flang into llvmPackages as a first-class Fortran compiler. flang
is built standalone on top of the LLVM/clang package set rather than
bundled into the llvm derivation, with passthru metadata
(`langFortran`, `isFlang`, `isClang`, `hardeningUnsupportedFlags`) so
cc-wrapper and downstream tooling can detect and adapt to it.
Driver compatibility patches backported from upstream are applied
selectively per LLVM version:
* `use-xflang-in-diagnostics` is applied to LLVM 20 and newer; it
teaches the driver to suggest `-Xflang` instead of `-Xclang` in
error messages for options only available to `flang -fc1`.
* `warn-on-fbuiltin-and-fno-builtin` and
`accept-and-ignore-some-gfortran-optimization-flags` are applied
to LLVM 20 and 21 only. LLVM 22 has equivalent behaviour merged
upstream (`warn_drv_invalid_argument_for_flang` and
`clang_ignored_gcc_optimization_f_Group` handling in
clang/lib/Driver/ToolChains/Flang.cpp), so the patches are skipped
there.
Patches live under pkgs/development/compilers/llvm/21/flang/ and are
shared across versions via patches.nix. They are applied to a private
libclang variant rather than the flang source tree because standalone
flang resolves driver/option definitions through the installed libclang
package.
Two focused passthru tests are added:
* `compile-smoke` exercises basic compilation and `@response-file`
handling.
* `driver-flags` covers wrapper flag isolation
(`NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE` must not leak into flang;
`NIX_FFLAGS_COMPILE` must reach it), the backported driver
diagnostics, and regression coverage for previously hard-erroring
flags.

Add a standalone derivation for LLVM's flang-rt runtime libraries
(libFortranRuntime, libFortranDecimal). flang-rt is a runtimes-style
package: building it requires running a working flang binary at *build*
time, but the produced libraries are linked into derivations targeting
the *host*.
The runtime is therefore wired up using `buildFlang`, sourced from
`buildLlvmPackages.flang-unwrapped` so that the build-platform flang
(spliced via the LLVM package set) compiles the runtime, while the
resulting libraries are still produced for the host platform. This
mirrors the existing `buildLlvmTools.tblgen` / `buildLlvmPackages.tblgen`
pattern used elsewhere in the LLVM package set.
`unwrapped` rather than the wrapped flang is used because flang-rt's
CMake glue invokes the compiler directly and does not need (or want)
Nix's cc-wrapper resource-dir and rpath plumbing during the runtime
build.
flang-rt only consumes LLVM's CMake helpers and the build-time flang;
it does not link against MLIR or libclang, so neither MLIR_DIR nor
CLANG_DIR is passed and the unused empty `dev` output is omitted.

Build on the initial LLVM Flang wrapper work by exposing the needed clang passthru and teaching cc-wrapper about flang-specific flag handling.
