- Use intra-doc links for `std::io` in `std::fs`
- Use intra-doc links for File::read in unix/ext/fs.rs
- Remove explicit intra-doc links for `true` in `net/addr.rs`
- Use intra-doc links in alloc/src/sync.rs
- Use intra-doc links in src/ascii.rs
- Switch to intra-doc links in alloc/rc.rs
- Use intra-doc links in core/pin.rs
- Use intra-doc links in std/prelude
- Use shorter links in `std/fs.rs`
`io` is already in scope.
This solves several problems
- race conditions where a file is truncated while copying from it. if we blindly trusted
the file size this would lead to an infinite loop
- proc files appearing empty to copy_file_range but not to read/write

- copy_file_range returning 0 for some filesystems (overlay? bind mounts?)
inside docker, again leading to an infinite loop
All #[cfg(unix)] platforms follow the POSIX standard and define _SC_IOV_MAX so
that we rely purely on POSIX semantics to determine the limits on I/O vector
count.
Keep the I/O vector count limit in a `SyncOnceCell` to avoid the overhead of
repeatedly calling `sysconf` as these limits are guaranteed to not change during
the lifetime of a process by POSIX.
Both Linux and MacOS enforce limits on the vector count when performing vectored
I/O via the readv and writev system calls and return EINVAL when these limits
are exceeded. This changes the standard library to handle those limits as short
reads and writes to avoid forcing its users to query these limits using
platform specific mechanisms.
