This commit adds `#[derive(Clone)]` to `std::fs::Metadata`, making that struct cloneable. Although the exact contents of that struct differ between OSes, they all have it contain only value types, meaning that the data can be re-used without repercussions.
It also adds `#[derive(Clone)]` to every type used by that struct across all OSes, including the various Unix `stat` structs and Windows's `WIN32_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DATA`.
This stems from my comment here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/939#issuecomment-140524439
Regarding [#29063 _[Docs] Terminology inconsistency between 'iterator adapters' and 'iterator adaptors'_](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/29063) :
This PR replaces 'iterator adapters' appearances (in TRPL book) to 'iterator adaptors', thus embracing the terminology used along the API docs and achieving consistency between both sources.
Before this commit, the first "A Rust library" code sample produced
the following compilation warning:
```
test.rs:7:22: 7:36 warning: unnecessary parentheses around `for` head
expression, #[warn(unused_parens)] on by default
test.rs:7 for _ in (0..5_000_000) {
```
This commit just removes the parens around the range 0..5_000_000 thereby removing the compilation warning.
Fixes#28676.
There doesn't seem to be a good way to add a test for this, but I tested the repro in #28676 and confirmed it now yields the correct result.

This is needed as item types are allowed to be unnormalized.
Fixes an ICE that occurs when foreign function signatures contained
an associated type.
Fixes#28983
Due to the way iterators work, the std::iter module is chock full of
structs that you, humble Rust programmer, will never actually use.
However, they have URLs, and therefore get linked to, because they are
real structs that do exist.
So, rather than just have a tiny sentence about each one of them,
this patch adds links back to the functions and methods on Iterator
which actually create the structs, where helpful documentation already
exists.

The link is broken here: <https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/io/#types>.
Looks like crate documentation generator uses only first paragraph of the module documentation and
so doesn't resolve the link defined below.
Probably this behaviour of the documentation generator should be considered as a bug and should be reported.
