Attachment: Bug 1788870 - Stop shipping libc++ along clang.

There are some ABI issues with libc++ headers in clang 15. The main
reason we are shipping libc++ with our clang is that the macos SDK,
up to and including 11.1, only contained the libc++ libraries, but
not the headers. The first SDK that contains the headers is 11.3
(there is no 11.2, at least publicly available), and we're now using
it.

Another problem with libc++ is that the way we currently build it is
deprecated and is going to yields hard errors soon enough on clang
trunk.

The simplest thing to do right now is to just stop shipping libc++.

Eventually, we may want to ship it correctly in a different way, for
all platforms, which was not happening anyways.
