This PR extends the language with a new lang item for the `Pointee` trait which is special-cased in trait resolution to implement it for all types. Even in generic contexts, parameters can be assumed to implement it without a corresponding bound.
For this I mostly imitated what the compiler was already doing for the `DiscriminantKind` trait. I’m very unfamiliar with compiler internals, so careful review is appreciated.
This PR also extends the standard library with new unstable APIs in `core::ptr` and `std::ptr`:
```rust
pub trait Pointee {
/// One of `()`, `usize`, or `DynMetadata<dyn SomeTrait>`
type Metadata: Copy + Send + Sync + Ord + Hash + Unpin;
}
pub trait Thin = Pointee<Metadata = ()>;
pub const fn metadata<T: ?Sized>(ptr: *const T) -> <T as Pointee>::Metadata {}
pub const fn from_raw_parts<T: ?Sized>(*const (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> *const T {}
pub const fn from_raw_parts_mut<T: ?Sized>(*mut (),<T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> *mut T {}
impl<T: ?Sized> NonNull<T> {
pub const fn from_raw_parts(NonNull<()>, <T as Pointee>::Metadata) -> NonNull<T> {}
/// Convenience for `(ptr.cast(), metadata(ptr))`
pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (NonNull<()>, <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}
impl<T: ?Sized> *const T {
pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (*const (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}
impl<T: ?Sized> *mut T {
pub const fn to_raw_parts(self) -> (*mut (), <T as Pointee>::Metadata) {}
}
/// `<dyn SomeTrait as Pointee>::Metadata == DynMetadata<dyn SomeTrait>`
pub struct DynMetadata<Dyn: ?Sized> {
// Private pointer to vtable
}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> DynMetadata<Dyn> {
pub fn size_of(self) -> usize {}
pub fn align_of(self) -> usize {}
pub fn layout(self) -> crate::alloc::Layout {}
}
unsafe impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Send for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
unsafe impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Sync for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Debug for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Unpin for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Copy for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Clone for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Eq for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> PartialEq for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Ord for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> PartialOrd for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
impl<Dyn: ?Sized> Hash for DynMetadata<Dyn> {}
```
API differences from the RFC, in areas noted as unresolved questions in the RFC:
* Module-level functions instead of associated `from_raw_parts` functions on `*const T` and `*mut T`, following the precedent of `null`, `slice_from_raw_parts`, etc.
* Added `to_raw_parts`
I'm pretty sure I am going want this for #73125 and it seems like an
omission that would be in any case good to remedy.
It's a shame we don't have competent token pasting and case mangling
for use in macro_rules!.

This file contained a lot of repetitive code. This was about to get
considerably worse, with introduction of a slew of new aliases.
No functional change. I've eyeballed the docs and they don't seem to
have changed either.

Add diagnostic items to the following types:
OsString (os_string_type)
PathBuf (path_buf_type)
Owned (to_owned_trait)
As well as the to_vec method on slice/[T]
Add the following trait impls:
- `impl Extend<OsString> for OsString`
- `impl<'a> Extend<&'a OsStr> for OsString`
- `impl FromIterator<OsString> for OsString`
- `impl<'a> FromIterator<&'a OsStr> for OsString`
Because `OsString` is a platform string with no particular semantics,
concatenating them together seems acceptable.
use RWlock when accessing os::env
Multiple threads modifying the current process environment is fairly uncommon. Optimize for the more common read case.

Upgrade wasm32 image to Ubuntu 20.04
This switches the wasm32 image, which is used to test
wasm32-unknown-emscripten, to Ubuntu 20.04. While at it, enable
most of the excluded tests, as they seem to work fine with some
minor fixes.
This method is similar to the existing `exists()` method, except it
doesn't silently ignore the errors, leading to less error-prone code.
This change intentionally does NOT touch the documentation of `exists()`
nor recommend people to use this method while it's unstable.
Such changes are reserved for stabilization to prevent confusing people.
Apart from that it avoids conflicts with #80979.

Expose correct symlink API on WASI
As described in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/68574, the currently exposed API for symlinks is, in fact, a thin wrapper around the corresponding syscall, and not suitable for public usage.
The reason is that the 2nd param in the call is expected to be a handle of a "preopened directory" (a WASI concept for exposing dirs), and the only way to retrieve such handle right now is by tinkering with a private `__wasilibc_find_relpath` API, which is an implementation detail and definitely not something we want users to call directly.
Making matters worse, the semantics of this param aren't obvious from its name (`fd`), and easy to misinterpret, resulting in people trying to pass a handle of the target file itself (as in https://github.com/vitiral/path_abs/pull/50), which doesn't work as expected.
I did a [codesearch among open-source repos](https://sourcegraph.com/search?q=std%3A%3Aos%3A%3Awasi%3A%3Afs%3A%3Asymlink&patternType=literal), and the usage above is so far the only usage of this API at all, but we should fix it before more people start using it incorrectly.
While this is technically a breaking API change, I believe it's a justified one, as 1) it's OS-specific and 2) there was strictly no way to correctly use the previous form of the API, and if someone does use it, they're likely doing it wrong like in the example above.
The new API does not lead to the same confusion, as it mirrors `std::os::unix::fs::symlink` and `std::os::windows::fs::symlink_{file,dir}` variants by accepting source/target paths.
Fixes#68574.

Stabilize poison API of Once, rename poisoned()
This stabilizes:
* `OnceState`
* `OnceState::is_poisoned()` (previously named `poisoned()`)
* `Once::call_once_force()`
`poisoned()` was renamed because the new name is more clear as a few
people agreed and nobody objected.
Closes#33577
Notes:
* I'm not entirely sure it's supposed to be 1.51, LMK if I did it wrong
* I failed to run tests locally, so we will have to leave it to bors or someone else can try
OsStr eq_ignore_ascii_case takes arg by value
Per a comment on #70516 this changes `eq_ignore_ascii_case` to take the generic parameter `S: AsRef<OsStr>` by value instead of by reference.
This is technically a breaking change to an unstable method. I think the only way it would break is if you called this method with an explicit type parameter, ie `my_os_str.eq_ignore_ascii_case::<str>("foo")` becomes `my_os_str.eq_ignore_ascii_case::<&str>("foo")`.
Besides that, I believe it is overall more flexible since it can now take an owned `OsString` for example.
If this change should be made in some other PR (like #80193) then please just close this.
