Std module docs improvements
My primary goal is to create a cleaner separation between primitive types and primitive type helper modules (fixes#92777). I also changed a few header lines in other top-level std modules (seen at https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/) for consistency.
Some conventions used/established:
* "The \`Box\<T>` type for heap allocation." - if a module mainly provides a single type, name it and summarize its purpose in the module header
* "Utilities for the _ primitive type." - this wording is used for the header of helper modules
* Documentation for primitive types themselves are removed from helper modules
* provided-by-core functionality of primitive types is documented in the primitive type instead of the helper module (such as the "Iteration" section in the slice docs)
I wonder if some content in `std::ptr` should be in `pointer` but I did not address this.
Replace most uses of `pointer::offset` with `add` and `sub`
As PR title says, it replaces `pointer::offset` in compiler and standard library with `pointer::add` and `pointer::sub`. This generally makes code cleaner, easier to grasp and removes (or, well, hides) integer casts.
This is generally trivially correct, `.offset(-constant)` is just `.sub(constant)`, `.offset(usized as isize)` is just `.add(usized)`, etc. However in some cases we need to be careful with signs of things.

_split off from #100746_
Make some docs nicer wrt pointer offsets
This PR replaces `pointer::offset` with `pointer::add` and similarly `.cast().wrapping_add().cast()` with `.wrapping_byte_add()` **in docs**.

Expose `Utf8Lossy` as `Utf8Chunks`
This PR changes the feature for `Utf8Lossy` from `str_internals` to `utf8_lossy` and improves the API. This is done to eventually expose the API as stable.
Proposal: rust-lang/libs-team#54
Tracking Issue: #99543
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.
Optimized vec::IntoIter::next_chunk impl
```
x86_64v1, default
test vec::bench_next_chunk ... bench: 696 ns/iter (+/- 22)
x86_64v1, pr
test vec::bench_next_chunk ... bench: 309 ns/iter (+/- 4)
znver2, default
test vec::bench_next_chunk ... bench: 17,272 ns/iter (+/- 117)
znver2, pr
test vec::bench_next_chunk ... bench: 211 ns/iter (+/- 3)
```
On znver2 the default impl seems to be slow due to different inlining decisions. It goes through `core::array::iter_next_chunk`
which has a deep call tree.
codegen: use new {re,de,}allocator annotations in llvm
This obviates the patch that teaches LLVM internals about
_rust_{re,de}alloc functions by putting annotations directly in the IR
for the optimizer.
The sole test change is required to anchor FileCheck to the body of the
`box_uninitialized` method, so it doesn't see the `allocalign` on
`__rust_alloc` and get mad about the string `alloca` showing up. Since I
was there anyway, I added some checks on the attributes to prove the
right attributes got set.

While we're here, we also emit allocator attributes on
__rust_alloc_zeroed. This should allow LLVM to perform more
optimizations for zeroed blocks, and probably fixes#90032. [This
comment](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/24194#issuecomment-308791157)
mentions "weird UB-like behaviour with bitvec iterators in
rustc_data_structures" so we may need to back this change out if things
go wrong.
The new test cases require LLVM 15, so we copy them into LLVM
14-supporting versions, which we can delete when we drop LLVM 14.
correct the output of a `capacity` method example
The output of this example in std::alloc is different from which shown in the comment. I have tested it on both Linux and Windows.
* Implement IsZero trait for tuples up to 8 IsZero elements;
* Implement IsZero for u8/i8, leading to implementation of it for arrays of them too;
* Add more codegen tests for this optimization.
* Lower size of array for IsZero trait because it fails to inline checks
The lifetime bound `B::Owned: 'a` is redundant and doesn't make a difference,
because `Cow<'a, B>` comes with an implicit `B: 'a`, and associated types
will outlive lifetimes outlived by the `Self` type (and all the trait's
generic parameters, of which there are none in this case), so the implicit `B: 'a`
implies `B::Owned: 'a` anyway.
The explicit lifetime bound here does however end up in documentation,
and that's confusing in my opinion, so let's remove it ^^
A colleague mentioned that they interpreted the old text
as saying that only the pointer and the length are copied.
Add a clause so it is more clear that the pointed to contents
are also copied.
add missing null ptr check in alloc example
`alloc` can return null on OOM, if I understood correctly. So we should never just deref a pointer we get from `alloc`.
Borrow Vec<T, A> as [T]
Hello all,
When `Vec` was parametrized with `A`, the `Borrow` impls were omitted and currently `Vec<T, A>` can't be borrowed as `[T]`. This PR fixes that.
This was probably missed, because the `Borrow` impls are in a different file - `src/alloc/slice.rs`.
We briefly discussed this here: https://github.com/rust-lang/wg-allocators/issues/96 and I was told to go ahead and make a PR :)
I tested this by building the toolchain and building my code that needed the `Borrow` impl against it, but let me know if I should add any tests to this PR.
Stabilize `core::ffi::CStr`, `alloc::ffi::CString`, and friends
Stabilize the `core_c_str` and `alloc_c_string` feature gates.
Change `std::ffi` to re-export these types rather than creating type
aliases, since they now have matching stability.

Stabilize `core::ffi:c_*` and rexport in `std::ffi`
This only stabilizes the base types, not the non-zero variants, since
those have their own separate tracking issue and have not gone through
FCP to stabilize.

In particular, be clear that it is sound to specify memory not
originating from a previous `Vec` allocation. That is already suggested
in other parts of the documentation about zero-alloc conversions to Box<[T]>.
Incorporate a constraint from `slice::from_raw_parts` that was missing
but needs to be fulfilled, since a `Vec` can be converted into a slice.
Optimize `Vec::insert` for the case where `index == len`.
By skipping the call to `copy` with a zero length. This makes it closer
to `push`.
I did this recently for `SmallVec`
(https://github.com/servo/rust-smallvec/pull/282) and it was a big perf win in
one case. Although I don't have a specific use case in mind, it seems
worth doing it for `Vec` as well.
Things to note:
- In the `index < len` case, the number of conditions checked is
unchanged.
- In the `index == len` case, the number of conditions checked increases
by one, but the more expensive zero-length copy is avoided.
- In the `index > len` case the code now reserves space for the extra
element before panicking. This seems like an unimportant change.
