I have not tested this, but is it possible to enable these options via
`-Cllvm-args=...` instead of using the unstable flags?

If so, I think this would be preferred in case the exact flags change
before they become stable. It sounds like they are likely to change,
see [1].

If not, no big deal since it would just need an update at a rust version bump.
