Improve slice.binary_search_by()'s best-case performance to O(1)
This PR aimed to improve the [slice.binary_search_by()](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.slice.html#method.binary_search_by)'s best-case performance to O(1).
# Noticed
I don't know why the docs of `binary_search_by` said `"If there are multiple matches, then any one of the matches could be returned."`, but the implementation isn't the same thing. Actually, it returns the **last one** if multiple matches found.
Then we got two options:
## If returns the last one is the correct or desired result
Then I can rectify the docs and revert my changes.
## If the docs are correct or desired result
Then my changes can be merged after fully reviewed.
However, if my PR gets merged, another issue raised: this could be a **breaking change** since if multiple matches found, the returning order no longer the last one instead of it could be any one.
For example:
```rust
let mut s = vec![0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55];
let num = 1;
let idx = s.binary_search(&num);
s.insert(idx, 2);
// Old implementations
assert_eq!(s, [0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 42, 55]);
// New implementations
assert_eq!(s, [0, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 42, 55]);
```

I run some benchmarking testings against on two implementations. The new implementation has a lot of improvement in duplicates cases, while in `binary_search_l3` case, it's a little bit slower than the old one.
Add diagnostic item to `Default` trait
This PR adds diagnostic item to `Default` trait to be used by rust-lang/rust-clippy#6562 issue.
Also fixes the obsolete path to the `symbols.rs` file in the comment.
Add assert_matches macro.
This adds `assert_matches!(expression, pattern)`.
Unlike the other asserts, this one ~~consumes the expression~~ may consume the expression, to be able to match the pattern. (It could add a `&` implicitly, but that's noticable in the pattern, and will make a consuming guard impossible.)
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/62633#issuecomment-790737853
This re-uses the same `left: .. right: ..` output as the `assert_eq` and `assert_ne` macros, but with the pattern as the right part:
assert_eq:
```
assertion failed: `(left == right)`
left: `Some("asdf")`,
right: `None`
```
assert_matches:
```
assertion failed: `(left matches right)`
left: `Ok("asdf")`,
right: `Err(_)`
```

Implement NOOP_METHOD_CALL lint
Implements the beginnings of https://github.com/rust-lang/lang-team/issues/67 - a lint for detecting noop method calls (e.g, calling `<&T as Clone>::clone()` when `T: !Clone`).
This PR does not fully realize the vision and has a few limitations that need to be addressed either before merging or in subsequent PRs:
* [ ] No UFCS support
* [ ] The warning message is pretty plain
* [ ] Doesn't work for `ToOwned`
The implementation uses [`Instance::resolve`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/rustc_middle/ty/instance/struct.Instance.html#method.resolve) which is normally later in the compiler. It seems that there are some invariants that this function relies on that we try our best to respect. For instance, it expects substitutions to have happened, which haven't yet performed, but we check first for `needs_subst` to ensure we're dealing with a monomorphic type.
Thank you to ```@davidtwco,``` ```@Aaron1011,``` and ```@wesleywiser``` for helping me at various points through out this PR ❤️.
Turn may_have_side_effect into an associated constant
The `may_have_side_effect` is an implementation detail of `TrustedRandomAccess`
trait. It describes if obtaining an iterator element may have side effects. It
is currently implemented as an associated function.
Turn `may_have_side_effect` into an associated constant. This makes the
value immediately available to the optimizer.
Convert primitives in the standard library to intra-doc links
Blocked on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/80181. I forgot that this needs to wait for the beta bump so the standard library can be documented with `doc --stage 0`.
Notably I didn't convert `core::slice` because it's like 50 links and I got scared 😨
- Rename `broken_intra_doc_links` to `rustdoc::broken_intra_doc_links`
- Ensure that the old lint names still work and give deprecation errors
- Register lints even when running doctests
Otherwise, all `rustdoc::` lints would be ignored.
- Register all existing lints as removed
This unfortunately doesn't work with `register_renamed` because tool
lints have not yet been registered when rustc is running. For similar
reasons, `check_backwards_compat` doesn't work either. Call
`register_removed` directly instead.
- Fix fallout
+ Rustdoc lints for compiler/
+ Rustdoc lints for library/
Note that this does *not* suggest `rustdoc::broken_intra_doc_links` for
`rustdoc::intra_doc_link_resolution_failure`, since there was no time
when the latter was valid.
Change twice used large const table to static
This table is used twice in core::num::dec2flt::algorithm::power_of_ten. According to the semantics of const, a separate huge definition of the table is inlined at both places.
5233edcf1c/library/core/src/num/dec2flt/algorithm.rs (L16-L22)
Theoretically this gets cleaned up by optimization passes, but in practice I am experiencing a miscompile from LTO on this code. Making the table a static, which would only be defined a single time and not require attention from LTO, eliminates the miscompile and seems semantically more appropriate anyway. A separate bug report on the LTO bug is forthcoming.
Original addition of `const` is from #27307.
The panic when the right operand is `0` is expected, but the
overflow-related panic (which occurs only for `MIN % -1`) is somewhat
surprising for two reasons: a return value of `0` would be reasonable
in this case, and, for most arithmetic operations, overflow results in
panic only when `debug_assertions` is enabled. As a result, it's
helpful to document this behavior.
The panic on division by zero is expected, but the panic on overflow
is somewhat surprising (since most arithmetic operations panic on
overflow only when `debug_assertions` is enabled). As a result, it's
helpful to document this behavior.
This commit fixes the statement of the inequality that the Euclidean
remainder satisfies. (The remainder is guaranteed to be less than
abs(rhs), not rhs.) It also rewords the documentation to make it a
little easier to read.

fn power_of_ten(e: i16) -> Fp {

let sig = table::POWERS.0[i as usize];
let exp = table::POWERS.1[i as usize];

Specialize slice::fill with Copy type and u8/i8/bool
I don't expect rustperf could measure any perf improvements with this changes
since `slice::fill` is newly added.
Godbolt link for this change: <https://rust.godbolt.org/z/r3fzee>.
r? `@matthewjasper` since this patch added new specialization.
This commit adds `as_str` methods to `SplitWhitespace` and `SplitAsciiWhitespace`
str iterators. The methods return the remainder, similar to `as_str` methods on
`Chars` and other split iterators.
This commit also makes fields of some iterators `pub(crate)`.
