On Windows and UEFI this improves performance and error messaging.
On other platforms we optimize the fast path a bit more.
This also prepares for later relaxing the checks on certain platforms.
Implement `TryFrom<&OsStr>` for `&str`
Recently when trying to work with `&OsStr` I was surprised to find this `impl` missing.
Since the `to_str` method already existed the actual implementation is fairly non-controversial, except for maybe the choice of the error type. I chose an opaque error here instead of something like `std::str::Utf8Error`, since that would already make a number of assumption about the underlying implementation of `OsStr`.
As this is a trait implementation, it is insta-stable, if I'm not mistaken?
Either way this will need an FCP.
I chose "1.64.0" as the version, since this is unlikely to land before the beta cut-off.

API Change Proposal: rust-lang/rust#99031 (accepted)
`OsStr` has historically kept its implementation details private out of
concern for locking us into a specific encoding on Windows.
This is an alternative to #95290 which proposed specifying the encoding on Windows. Instead, this
only specifies that for cross-platform code, `OsStr`'s encoding is a superset of UTF-8 and defines
rules for safely interacting with it
At minimum, this can greatly simplify the `os_str_bytes` crate and every
arg parser that interacts with `OsStr` directly (which is most of those
that support invalid UTF-8).
Optimize `Wtf8Buf::into_string` for the case where it contains UTF-8.
Add a `is_known_utf8` flag to `Wtf8Buf`, which tracks whether the
string is known to contain UTF-8. This is efficiently computed in many
common situations, such as when a `Wtf8Buf` is constructed from a `String`
or `&str`, or with `Wtf8Buf::from_wide` which is already doing UTF-16
decoding and already checking for surrogates.
This makes `OsString::into_string` O(1) rather than O(N) on Windows in
common cases.
And, it eliminates the need to scan through the string for surrogates in
`Args::next` and `Vars::next`, because the strings are already being
translated with `Wtf8Buf::from_wide`.
Many things on Windows construct `OsString`s with `Wtf8Buf::from_wide`,
such as `DirEntry::file_name` and `fs::read_link`, so with this patch,
users of those functions can subsequently call `.into_string()` without
paying for an extra scan through the string for surrogates.
r? `@ghost`
Update doc comments to make the guarantee explicit. However, some
implementations does not have the statement though.
* `HashMap`, `HashSet`: require guarantees on hashbrown side.
* `PathBuf`: simply redirecting to `OsString`.
Fixes#99606.

This updates the standard library's documentation to use the new syntax. The
documentation is worthwhile to update as it should be more idiomatic
(particularly for features like this, which are nice for users to get acquainted
with). The general codebase is likely more hassle than benefit to update: it'll
hurt git blame, and generally updates can be done by folks updating the code if
(and when) that makes things more readable with the new format.
A few places in the compiler and library code are updated (mostly just due to
already having been done when this commit was first authored).
The functions are now `unsafe` and they use `Option::unwrap_unchecked` instead of `unwrap_or_0`
`unwrap_or_0` was added in 42357d772b. I guess `unwrap_unchecked` was not available back then.
Given this example:
```rust
pub fn first_char(s: &str) -> Option<char> {
s.chars().next()
}
```
Previously, the following assembly was produced:
```asm
_ZN7example10first_char17ha056ddea6bafad1cE:
.cfi_startproc
test rsi, rsi
je .LBB0_1
movzx edx, byte ptr [rdi]
test dl, dl
js .LBB0_3
mov eax, edx
ret
.LBB0_1:
mov eax, 1114112
ret
.LBB0_3:
lea r8, [rdi + rsi]
xor eax, eax
mov r9, r8
cmp rsi, 1
je .LBB0_5
movzx eax, byte ptr [rdi + 1]
add rdi, 2
and eax, 63
mov r9, rdi
.LBB0_5:

cmp dl, -33
jbe .LBB0_6

.LBB0_6:
shl ecx, 6

ret
.LBB0_9:
xor esi, esi
mov r9, r8
shl eax, 6

.LBB0_16:
and ecx, 7
shl ecx, 18
shl eax, 6
or eax, ecx

ret
```
After this change, the assembly is reduced to:
```asm
_ZN7example10first_char17h4318683472f884ccE:

```
My change to use `Type::def_id()` (formerly `Type::def_id_full()`) in
more places caused some docs to show up that used to be missed by
rustdoc. Those docs contained unescaped square brackets, which triggered
linkcheck errors. This commit escapes the square brackets and adds this
particular instance to the linkcheck exception list.
