A successful advance is now signalled by returning `0` and other values now represent the remaining number
of steps that couldn't be advanced as opposed to the amount of steps that have been advanced during a partial advance_by.
This simplifies adapters a bit, replacing some `match`/`if` with arithmetic. Whether this is beneficial overall depends
on whether `advance_by` is mostly used as a building-block for other iterator methods and adapters or whether
we also see uses by users where `Result` might be more useful.
Use associated items of `char` instead of freestanding items in `core::char`
The associated functions and constants on `char` have been stable since 1.52 and the freestanding items have soft-deprecated since 1.62 (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/95566). This PR ~~marks them as "deprecated in future", similar to the integer and floating point modules (`core::{i32, f32}` etc)~~ replaces all uses of `core::char::*` with `char::*` to prepare for future deprecation of `core::char::*`.
The `Step` trait guarantees that `Range<impl Step>` yields items in
sorted order. We can override the `Iterator::is_sorted` method based on
this guarantee, as we already do for `Iterator::min` and `max`.
Given that the previous example involves stepping forward from A to B,
the equivalent example on this line would make most sense as stepping
backward from B to A.
This method on the Iterator trait is doc(hidden), and about half of
implementations were doc(hidden). This adds the attribute to the
remaining implementations.
While stdlib implementations of the unchecked methods require unchecked
math, there is no reason to gate it behind this for external users. The
reasoning for a separate `step_trait_ext` feature is unclear, and as
such has been merged as well.
Implement the new desugaring from `try_trait_v2`
~~Currently blocked on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/84782, which has a PR in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/84811~~ Rebased atop that fix.
`try_trait_v2` tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/84277
Unfortunately this is already touching a ton of things, so if you have suggestions for good ways to split it up, I'd be happy to hear them. (The combination between the use in the library, the compiler changes, the corresponding diagnostic differences, even MIR tests mean that I don't really have a great plan for it other than trying to have decently-readable commits.
