The addition of `core::iter::zip` (#82917) set a precedent for adding
plain functions for iterator adaptors. Adding `chain` makes it a little
easier to `chain` two iterators.
```
for (x, y) in chain(xs, ys) {}
// vs.
for (x, y) in xs.into_iter().chain(ys) {}
```
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.
The `advance_by(n)` docs state that in the error case `Err(k)` that k is always less than n.
It also states that `advance_by(0)` may return `Err(0)` to indicate an exhausted iterator.
These statements are inconsistent.
Since only one implementation (Skip) actually made use of that I changed it to return Ok(()) in that case too.
While adding some tests I also found a bug in `Take::advance_back_by`.
