[libcxx] Simplify back-deployment testing
The needs of back-deployment testing currently require two different
ways of running the test suite: one based on the deployment target,
and one based on the target triple. Since the triple includes all the
information we need, it's better to have just one way of doing things.
Furthermore, `--param platform=XXX` is also supersedded by using the
target triple. Previously, this parameter would serve the purpose of
controling XFAILs for availability markup errors, however it is possible
to achieve the same thing by using with_system_cxx_lib only and using
.verify.cpp tests instead, as explained in the documentation changes.
The motivation for this change is twofold:
1. This part of the Lit config has always been really confusing and
complicated, and it has been a source of bugs in the past. I have
simplified it iteratively in the past, but the complexity is still
there.
2. The deployment-target detection started failing in weird ways in
recent Clangs, breaking our CI. Instead of band-aid patching the
issue, I decided to remove the complexity altogether by using target
triples even on Apple platforms.
A follow-up to this commit will bring the test suite in line with
the recommended way of handling availability markup tests.
