std: Mark allocation functions as nounwind
This commit flags all allocation-related functions in liballoc as "this can't
unwind" which should largely resolve the size-related issues found on #42808.
The documentation on the trait was updated with such a restriction (they can't
panic) as well as some other words about the relative instability about
implementing a bullet-proof allocator.
Closes#42808
Generator support
This adds experimental support for generators intended to land once https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2033 is approved.
This is not yet ready to be merged. Things to do:
- [x] Make closure arguments on generators an error
- [x] Spot FIXMEs
- [x] Pass make tidy
- [x] Write tests
- [x] Document the current syntax and semantics for generators somewhere
- [x] Use proper error message numbers
- [x] ~~Make the implicit argument type default to `()`~~

Clarify that VecDeque::swap can panic
The previous documentation mentioned this, but ambiguously used the term "fail".
This clarifies that the function will panic if the index is out of bounds, instead of silently failing and not doing anything.
If there's anything else I can do to improve this PR, I'd be happy to do so! Just saw this when reading through the docs in passing - it was slightly unclear what "fail" meant.

Fix inconsistent doc headings
This fixes headings reading "Unsafety" and "Example", they should be "Safety" and "Examples" according to RFC 1574.

Implement From<&[T]> and others for Arc/Rc (RFC 1845)
* Implements `From<`{`&[T]`, `&str`, `String`, `Box<T> where T: ?Sized`, `Vec<T>`}`>` for `Arc`/`Rc`
* Removes `rustc_private`-marked methods `Rc::__from_array` and `Rc::__from_str`, replacing their use with `Rc::from`
Tracking issue: #40475
Implements RFC 1845, adding implementations of:
* `From<&[T]>` for `Rc<[T]>`
* `From<&str>` for `Rc<str>`
* `From<String>` for `Rc<str>`
* `From<Box<T: ?Sized>>` for `Rc<T>`
* `From<Vec<T>>` for `Rc<[T]>`
* and likewise for `Arc<_>`
Also removes now-obsolete internal methods `Rc::__from_array` and
`Rc::__from_str`, replacing their use with `Rc::from`.
Add Vec::drain_filter
This implements the API proposed in #43244.
So I spent like half a day figuring out how to implement this in some awesome super-optimized unsafe way, which had me very confident this was worth putting into the stdlib.
Then I looked at the impl for `retain`, and was like "oh dang". I compared the two and they basically ended up being the same speed. And the `retain` impl probably translates to DoubleEndedIter a lot more cleanly if we ever want that.
So now I'm not totally confident this needs to go in the stdlib, but I've got two implementations and an amazingly robust test suite, so I figured I might as well toss it over the fence for discussion.
Add method `String::retain`
Behaves like `Vec::retain`, accepting a predicate `FnMut(char) -> bool`
and reducing the string to only characters for which the predicate
returns `true`.

Optimize allocation paths in RawVec
Since the `Alloc` trait was introduced (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/42313) and it was integrated everywhere (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/42727) there's been some slowdowns and regressions that have slipped through. The intention of this PR is to try to tackle at least some of them, but they've been very difficult to quantify up to this point so it probably doesn't solve everything.
This PR primarily targets the `RawVec` type, specifically the `double` function. The codegen for this function is now much closer to what it was before #42313 landed as many runtime checks have been elided.
The `RawVec` type has a number of invariants that it upholds throughout its
execution, and as a result many of the runtime checks imposed by using `Layout`
in a "raw" fashion aren't actually necessary. For example a `RawVec`'s capacity
is intended to always match the layout which "fits" the allocation, so we don't
need any runtime checks when retrieving the current `Layout` for a vector.
Consequently, this adds a safe `current_layout` function which internally uses
the `from_size_align_unchecked` function.
Along the same lines we know that most construction of new layouts will not
overflow. All allocations in `RawVec` are kept below `isize::MAX` and valid
alignments are also kept low enough that we're guaranteed that `Layout` for a
doubled vector will never overflow and will always succeed construction.
Consequently a few locations can use `from_size_align_unchecked` in addition
when constructing the *new* layout to allocate (or reallocate), which allows for
eliding some more runtime checks.
Overall this should significant improve performance for an important function,
`RawVec::double`. This commit removes four runtime jumps before `__rust_realloc`
is called, as well as one after it's called.
None of these require a significant amount of code and using `#[inline]` will
allow constructors to get inlined, improving codegen at allocation callsites.
