This commit uniforms the short title of modules provided by libstd,
in order to make their roles more explicit when glancing at the index.

Expanded, that is:
- `AsOption`
- `IntoOption`
- `ToOption`
- `AsEither`
- `IntoEither`
- `ToEither`
- `AsResult`
- `IntoResult`
- `ToResult`
These were defined for each other but never *used* anywhere. They are
all trivial and so removal will have negligible effect upon anyone.
`Either` has fallen out of favour (and its implementation of these
traits of dubious semantics), `Option<T>` → `Result<T, ()>` was never
really useful and `Result<T, E>` → `Option<T>` should now be done with
`Result.ok()` (mirrored with `Result.err()` for even more usefulness).
In summary, there's really no point in any of these remaining.
Cleaned up the source in a few places
Renamed `map_move` to `map`, removed other `map` methods
Added `as_ref` and `as_mut` adapters to `Result`
Added `fmt::Default` impl
The trait will keep the `Iterator` naming, but a more concise module
name makes using the free functions less verbose. The module will define
iterables in addition to iterators, as it deals with iteration in
general.
Use Eq + Ord for lexicographical ordering of sequences.
For each of <, <=, >= or > as R, use::
[x, ..xs] R [y, ..ys] = if x != y { x R y } else { xs R ys }
Previous code using `a < b` and then `!(b < a)` for short-circuiting
fails on cases such as [1.0, 2.0] < [0.0/0.0, 3.0], where the first
element was effectively considered equal.
Containers like &[T] did also implement only one comparison operator `<`,
and derived the comparison results from this. This isn't correct either for
Ord.
Implement functions in `std::iterator::order::{lt,le,gt,ge,equal,cmp}` that all
iterable containers can use for lexical order.
We also visit tuple ordering, having the same problem and same solution
(but differing implementation).
Let Option be a base for a widely useful one- or zero- item iterator.
Refactor OptionIterator to support any generic element type, so the same
iterator impl can be used for both &T, &mut T and T iterators.
- Made naming schemes consistent between Option, Result and Either
- Changed Options Add implementation to work like the maybe monad (return None if any of the inputs is None)
- Removed duplicate Option::get and renamed all related functions to use the term `unwrap` instead
