Instead of towards negative infinity as is currently the case.
This done so that the obvious expectations of
`midpoint(a, b) == midpoint(b, a)` and
`midpoint(-a, -b) == -midpoint(a, b)` are true, which makes the even
more obvious implementation `(a + b) / 2` true.

Two improvements to the documentation:
- Document `-` as a valid character for signed integer destinations
- Make the documentation even more clear that extra whitespace and non-digit characters is invalid. Many other
languages, e.g. c++, are very permissive in string to integer routines and simply try to consume as much as they can,
ignoring the rest. This is trying to make the transition for developers who are used to the conversion semantics in
these languages a bit easier.
Re-enable android tests/benches in alloc/core
This is basically a revert of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/73729. These tests better work on android now; it's been 4 years and we don't use dlmalloc on that target anymore.
And I've validated that they should pass now with a try-build :)
* Choose test inputs more thoroughly and systematically.
* Check that `isqrt` and `checked_isqrt` have equivalent results for
signed types, either equivalent numerically or equivalent as a panic
and a `None`.
* Check that `isqrt` has numerically-equivalent results for unsigned
types and their `NonZero` counterparts.
* Reuse `ilog10` benchmarks, plus benchmarks that use a uniform
distribution.
Print the tested value in int_log tests
Tiny change - from the failures in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/125016, it would have been nice to see what the tested values were. Update the assertion messages.
Most modules have such a blank line, but some don't. Inserting the blank
line makes it clearer that the `//!` comments are describing the entire
module, rather than the `use` declaration(s) that immediately follows.
Change f32::midpoint to upcast to f64
This has been verified by kani as a correct optimization
see: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/110840#issuecomment-1942587398
The new implementation is branchless and only differs in which NaN values are produced (if any are produced at all), which is fine to change. Aside from NaN handling, this implementation produces bitwise identical results to the original implementation.
Question: do we need a codegen test for this? I didn't add one, since the original PR #92048 didn't have any codegen tests.

The new implementation is gated on targets that have a fast 64-bit
floating point implementation in hardware, and on WASM.

Add midpoint function for all integers and floating numbers
This pull-request adds the `midpoint` function to `{u,i}{8,16,32,64,128,size}`, `NonZeroU{8,16,32,64,size}` and `f{32,64}`.
This new function is analog to the [C++ midpoint](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/numeric/midpoint) function, and basically compute `(a + b) / 2` with a rounding towards ~~`a`~~ negative infinity in the case of integers. Or simply said: `midpoint(a, b)` is `(a + b) >> 1` as if it were performed in a sufficiently-large signed integral type.
Note that unlike the C++ function this pull-request does not implement this function on pointers (`*const T` or `*mut T`). This could be implemented in a future pull-request if desire.
### Implementation
For `f32` and `f64` the implementation in based on the `libcxx` [one](18ab892ff7/libcxx/include/__numeric/midpoint.h (L65-L77)). I originally tried many different approach but all of them failed or lead me with a poor version of the `libcxx`. Note that `libstdc++` has a very similar one; Microsoft STL implementation is also basically the same as `libcxx`. It unfortunately doesn't seems like a better way exist.
For unsigned integers I created the macro `midpoint_impl!`, this macro has two branches:
- The first one take `$SelfT` and is used when there is no unsigned integer with at least the double of bits. The code simply use this formula `a + (b - a) / 2` with the arguments in the correct order and signs to have the good rounding.
- The second branch is used when a `$WideT` (at least double of bits as `$SelfT`) is provided, using a wider number means that no overflow can occur, this greatly improve the codegen (no branch and less instructions).
For signed integers the code basically forwards the signed numbers to the unsigned version of midpoint by mapping the signed numbers to their unsigned numbers (`ex: i8 [-128; 127] to [0; 255]`) and vice versa.
I originally created a version that worked directly on the signed numbers but the code was "ugly" and not understandable. Despite this mapping "overhead" the codegen is better than my most optimized version on signed integers.
~~Note that in the case of unsigned numbers I tried to be smart and used `#[cfg(target_pointer_width = "64")]` to determine if using the wide version was better or not by looking at the assembly on godbolt. This was applied to `u32`, `u64` and `usize` and doesn't change the behavior only the assembly code generated.~~

I can squash once people are happy w/ the changes. It's really uncommon for large sets of changes to be perfectly acceptable w/o at least some changes.

Fix inconsistent rounding of 0.5 when formatted to 0 decimal places
As described in #70336, when displaying values to zero decimal places the value of 0.5 is rounded to 1, which is inconsistent with the display of other half-integer values which round to even.
From testing the flt2dec implementation, it looks like this comes down to the condition in the fixed-width Dragon implementation where an empty buffer is treated as a case to apply rounding up. I believe the change below fixes it and updates only the relevant tests.
Nevertheless I am aware this is very much a core piece of functionality, so please take a very careful look to make sure I haven't missed anything. I hope this change does not break anything in the wider ecosystem as having a consistent rounding behaviour in floating point formatting is in my opinion a useful feature to have.
Resolves#70336
Reimplement `carrying_add` and `borrowing_sub` for signed integers.
As per the discussion in #85532, this PR reimplements `carrying_add` and `borrowing_sub` for signed integers.
It also adds unit tests for both unsigned and signed integers, emphasing on the behaviours of the methods.
Faster parsing for lower numbers for radix up to 16 (cont.)
( Continuation of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/83371 )
With LingMan's change I think this is potentially ready.
