Research direction

Start by reviewing issue #742 and the current gccrs handling of language items; confirm why alloc_layout is absent and how Rust 1.49 requires it. Done means establishing the expected treatment of alloc_layout and adding or updating the relevant compiler coverage so the item is no longer reported as unknown.
