Auto merge of #96067 - jsgf:extern-nounused, r=compiler-errors

Add support for `nounused` --extern flag

This adds `nounused` to the set of extern flags:
`--extern nounused:core=/path/to/core/libcore.rlib`.

The effect of this flag is to suppress `unused-crate-dependencies`
warnings relating to the crate.
