Rollup merge of #72900 - jsgf:no-unused-pathless, r=petrochenkov

Don't count pathless --extern for unused-crate-dependencies warnings

`--extern proc_macro` is used to add the proc_macro crate to the extern
prelude for all procmacros. In general pathless `--extern` only references
sysroot/standard libraries and so should be exempt from
unused-crate-dependencies warnings.
