std: time: Avoid to use "was created" in elapsed() description
".. since this instant was created" is inaccurate and misleading, consider the following case: let i1 = Instant::now(); // i1 is created at T1 let i2 = i1 + Duration::from_nanos(0); // i2 is "created" at T2 i2.elapsed(); // at T3 Per the current description, `elapsed()` at T3 should return T3 - T2? Therefore removes the "was created" in the description of {Instant,SystemTime}::elapsed(). And since these types represent times, it's OK to use prepostions with them, e.g. "since this instant".
