Auto merge of #7008 - alexcrichton:less-pipelining, r=ehuss

Handle pipelined tests of libraries

The previous implementation of pipelining accidentally forgot to account
for rlibs being compiled in `--test` mode. The compilations would be
pipelined to where all the dependencies of an rlib might not be
available yet, but `--test` actually performs linking in rustc!

This commit fixes the issue by refactoring slightly and removing
`Target::requires_upstream_objects` (moving it to `TargetKind`) and then
making the source of truth a `Unit::requires_upstream_objects` method
which takes into account the value from `TargetKind` as well as the
`CompileMode`.

Closes #6993
