Based on feedback in #1312.

This assumes that the dev guide will be updated as well, haven't submitted a PR for that yet though.

CC @flba-eb, wdyt?

Hmm, actually, I'm not sure what to update the rustc dev guide with? It already has a section on patching crates, and that section mentions both libc and cc?

What would you suggest? Just make it more prominent? Or does it not really matter if we have this error message in cc-rs?

The proposed error text looks great, and would have bypassed the ~90 minutes of debugging I had to do working on a new target.

Bump bootstrap cc to 1.2.14 and cmake to 0.1.54

## Summary

Bump bootstrap's `cc` and `cmake` deps:

1. To make it easier to add new/unofficial targets. In particular, `cc` v1.2.4+ allows using env vars to pass target parameters to the `cc` crate. This was previously attempted in rust-lang#134344 but ran into macos-cross-to-iOS problems with `cmake` (and also rust-lang#136440, rust-lang#136720). See also discussions in rust-lang/cc-rs#1317.
2. Fix some flag inheritance warnings. Fixes rust-lang#136338.

## `cc` changelogs between `1.2.0` and `1.2.14`
