The `Iterator.nth()` documentation says "Note that all preceding elements will be consumed". I assumed from that that the preceding elements would be the *only* ones that were consumed, but in fact the returned element is consumed as well.
The way I read the documentation, I assumed that `nth(0)` would not discard anything (as there are 0 preceding elements), so I added a sentence clarifying that it does. I also rephrased it to avoid the stunted "i.e." phrasing.
It is an unnecessary restriction; nth neither needs self to be sized
nor needs to be exempted from the trait object.
It increases the utility of the nth method, because type specific
implementations are available through `&mut I` or through an iterator
trait object.
It is a backwards compatible change due to the special cases of the
`where Self: Sized` bound; it was already optional to include this bound
in `Iterator` implementations.
Introduce max_by/min_by on iterators
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/1722 for reference.
It seems that there is `min`, `max` (simple computation of min/max), `min_by_key`, `max_by_key` (min/max by comparing mapped values) but no `min_by` and `max_by` (min/max according to comparison function). However, e.g. on vectors or slices there is `sort`, `sort_by_key` and `sort_by`.
Although the set of APIs being stabilized this release is relatively small, the
trains keep going! Listed below are the APIs in the standard library which have
either transitioned from unstable to stable or those from unstable to
deprecated.
Stable
* `BTreeMap::{append, split_off}`
* `BTreeSet::{append, split_off}`
* `Cell::get_mut`
* `RefCell::get_mut`
* `BinaryHeap::append`
* `{f32, f64}::{to_degrees, to_radians}` - libcore stabilizations mirroring past
libstd stabilizations
* `Iterator::sum`
* `Iterator::product`
Deprecated
* `{f32, f64}::next_after`
* `{f32, f64}::integer_decode`
* `{f32, f64}::ldexp`
* `{f32, f64}::frexp`
* `num::One`
* `num::Zero`
Added APIs (all unstable)
* `iter::Sum`
* `iter::Product`
* `iter::Step` - a few methods were added to accomodate deprecation of One/Zero
Removed APIs
* `From<Range<T>> for RangeInclusive<T>` - everything about `RangeInclusive` is
unstable

Remove unzip() SizeHint hack
This was using an invalid iterator so is likely to end with buggy
behaviour.
It also doesn't even benefit many type in std including Vec so removing it
shouldn't cause any problems.
Fixes: #33468

The example uses integers for the value being iterated over, but the indices
added by `enumerate` are also integers, so I always end up double taking and
thinking harder than I should when parsing the documentation. I also always
forget which order the index and value are in the tuple so I frequently hit this
stumbling block. This commit changes the documentation to iterate over
characters so that it is immediately obvious which part of the tuple is the
index and which is the value.
split iter.rs into a directory of (implementation private) modules.
+ mod Adaptor structs
- Private fields need to be available both for them and Iterator
+ iterator (Iterator trait)
+ traits (FromIterator, traits but Iterator itself)
+ range (range related)
+ sources (Repeat, Once, Empty)
