rust: backport cstring-merging test fix for PowerPC targets
The Rust cstring-merging assembly test was failing on PowerPC targets due to
LLVM's GlobalMerge optimization pass merging all global string constants into
a single merged global. This caused the test's CHECK directives to fail as
they expected separate .Lanon labels for each string literal ("foo", "bar",
"baz").
The test verifies that C-style string literals are correctly placed in
mergeable read-only sections (.rodata.str1.1) with proper section flags
(aMS - Allocatable, Merge, Strings) for linker optimization.
This backports the upstream fix that disables the GlobalMerge pass
(-Cllvm-args=-enable-global-merge=0) specifically for this test, allowing
it to verify the expected assembly structure without interference from
the optimization.
Fixes test failure:
