    // it needs to be of a form that the linker will be able to process.

    // final output of the compiler. Instead this is purely for rustc's own

    // With the above in mind, each "flavor" of object format gets special

    //
    // * MachO - macos-like targets will insert the metadata into a section that
    //   is sort of fake dwarf debug info. Inspecting the source of the macos
    //   linker this causes these sections to be skipped automatically because
    //   it's not in an allowlist of otherwise well known dwarf section names to
    //   go into the final artifact.
    //
    // * WebAssembly - we actually don't have any container format for this
    //   target. WebAssembly doesn't support the `dylib` crate type anyway so
    //   there's no need for us to support this at this time. Consequently the
    //   metadata bytes are simply stored as-is into an rlib.
    //
    // * COFF - Windows-like targets create an object with a section that has
    //   the `IMAGE_SCN_LNK_REMOVE` flag set which ensures that if the linker
    //   ever sees the section it doesn't process it and it's removed.
    //
    // * ELF - All other targets are similar to Windows in that there's a
    //   `SHF_EXCLUDE` flag we can set on sections in an object file to get
    //   automatically removed from the final output.
