What does this PR try to resolve?

This is split off from #13114.

Exercise tests on macOS to ensure trim-paths=object works and only SO and OSO symbols cannot be trimmed.

# Stabilization report: `profile.trim-paths`

Resolves rust-lang#12137
Resolves rust-lang/rust#111540
RFC: <https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/3127-trim-paths.html>

## What is stabilized

The rustc side `--remap-path-scope` was already stabilized in Rust 1.95
via rust-lang/rust#147611

This stabilizes the Cargo side:

* `profile.<name>.trim-paths = "none" | "object" | "all"`
  in both manifest and config
* The remap rules of how Cargo passes `--remap-path-{prefix,scope}`.
  The exact remap prefixes still stay unspecified.
* The unremap file `<artifact>.trim-paths.json` (schema v1),
  which is emitted beside final artifacts when debuginfo is on.
* `CARGO_TRIM_PATHS_SCOPE` and `CARGO_TRIM_PATHS_REMAP` for build
scripts.

When this is merged and sync in rust-lang/rust,
we'll also stabilize

* The `rust-gdb` and `rust-lldb` unremap loaders.
`RUST_GDB_TRIM_PATHS=unstable` and `RUST_LLDB_TRIM_PATHS=unstable` are
not needed anymore.

See doc for details:

https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/blob/8814ead110e36ed8fdcf1fdd4009baf82bd78523/doc/book/src/reference/unstable.md?plain=1#L1441-L1645

## What is not stabilized / included

* This doesn't guarantee full sanitization. It is a best-effort feature.
* Other `--remap-path-scope` values in rustc (`macro`, `diagnostics`,
`debuginfo`, `coverage`),
  boolean values, and comma-separated list options.
  These are removed in rust-lang#17432.
  They can come back later when needed.
* A default trim-path value for built-in profiles.
  RFC originall proposed to set `release` to `"object"`.
  This is left for future when this is more adopted and battle-tested.
We have loose stability guarantee for changing profile settings anyway.
* `__CARGO_RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP_WS_REMAP`.
  This stays as an internal thing between rustc bootstrap and cargo
  (see rust-lang#17349, rust-lang#17366)
* Doctest remapping and `documentation` scope.
  This will be integrated in the future incrementally
  when those scopes and features are stable.
* The exact remap prefixes are unspecified as documented.
  However, in practice,
  rustc bootstrap and debugger depend on the stabilized shape,
  so any change needs careful coordination with them.
* Unremap files for artifact deps: deferred, non-blocking.
* `build-rs` API for the two build script variables: deferred,
non-blocking.
* If there are new kinds of artifacts, we can decide whether to remap
freely.

### Doors closed

* The trim-paths profile key name, its shape, and its options.
* The unremap file name suffix `.trim-paths.json` and the v1 schema.
* The environment variable `CARGO_TRIM_PATHS_SCOPE` and
`CARGO_TRIM_PATHS_REMAP`.

## Post-RFC changes

* rustc removed `split-debuginfo` scopes,
  and Cargo followed and stopped caring split debuginfo.
* The RFC remapped the current package to relative paths and every
dependency to `<name>-<version>`.
  In rust-lang#17302 we chose workspace members relative remap,
  so debuggers resolve workspace sources with zero configuration.
The RFC worried that relative paths only work when running from the
right directory,
and symbolication tools need a second process for joining workspace
relative paths.
THe unremap file has `workspace_root`, so the join is fairly mechanical.
  Remap prefixes are unspecified anyway,
  so we can still change if it turns out not ideal.
* The unremap file is new (introduced in rust-lang#17303),
  for helping debugging find sources,
  as well as our keeping remap rules unspecified.
  The RFC had no answer about this.
* `CARGO_TRIM_PATHS_REMAP` build script env is new.
It lets build scripts forward the same rules to C/C++ compilers to flags
like `-fmacro-prefix-map`.
  `cc-rs` has integrated that since rust-lang/cc-rs#1794.

## Feedback

* rustc bootstrap builds the compiler and standard library with
`trim-paths`
  via rust-lang/rust#161049 since 2026-09-02.
This exercises the sysroot remap and the workspace prefix override in
rust-lang/rust CI.
* `cc-rs` forwards the remap rules to C/C++ compiler since 1.3.0:
<https://github.com/rust-lang/cc-rs/releases/tag/cc-v1.3.0>

## Known limitations

This sanitization is best-effort. See

### Test coverage

* Remap for each dependency kind
* `"object"` with every `split-debuginfo` mode
* `"all"` diagnostics remapping for rustc and rustdoc
* The new build-script environment variables.
* Real world debugger exercises with GDB, LLDB, and CDB
* unremap files with rebuilds, `cargo clean`, JSON messages
* rustc bootstrap workspace prefix override
* `-Zbuild-std` backtraces show `/rustc/<hash>` paths

## Follow-ups after stabilization

* [ ] Revisit reproducibility issues, such as
  * rust-lang#13586
  * rust-lang#15122
  * rust-lang#7645
  * rust-lang#10915
Absolute paths of workspace and `CARGO_HOME` still get into
`-Cmetadata`/`-Cextra-filename`/fingerprints.
With `trim-paths = "object"` we might be able to also trim paths in
those places.
* [ ] Revisit a new default for built-in profiles e.g., `release`
* [ ] In rust-lang/rust stabilize loader logic in
`src/etc/gdb_trim_paths.py` and `src/etc/lldb_trim_paths.py`
* [x] A new issue for `build-rs` adding `CARGO_TRIM_PATHS_SCOPE` and
`CARGO_TRIM_PATHS_REMAP` support
* [ ] A new issue for supporting doctest remapping and documentation
scope.
* [ ] Track unremap files support in artifact dependencies tracking
