Rollup merge of rust-lang#128229 - tdittr:unsafe-extern-abi-error, r=compiler-errors

Improve `extern "<abi>" unsafe fn()` error message

These errors were already reported in rust-lang#87217, and fixed by rust-lang#87235 but missed the case of an explicit ABI.

This PR does not cover multiple keywords like `extern "C" pub const unsafe fn()`, but I don't know what a good way to cover this  would be. It also seems rarer than `extern "C" unsafe` which I saw happen a few times in workshops.
