Use stable code in doc examples (libcollections)
Main task is to change from String::from_str to String::from in examples for String
(the latter constructor is stable). While I'm at it, also remove redundant feature flags,
fix some other instances of unstable code in examples (in examples for stable
methods), and remove some use of usize in examples too.
Prefer String::from over from_str; String::from_str is unstable while
String::from is stable. Promote the latter by using it in examples.
Simply migrating unstable function to the closest alternative.
* segfault due to not copying drop flag when coercing
* fat pointer casts
* segfault due to not checking drop flag properly
* debuginfo for DST smart pointers
* unreachable code in drop glue
They're only enabled in debug builds, but a panic is usually more
welcome than UB in debug builds.

An automated script was run against the `.rs` and `.md` files,
subsituting every occurrence of `task` with `thread`. In the `.rs`
files, only the texts in the comment blocks were affected.
This commit brings the `Error` trait in line with the [Error interoperation
RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/201) by adding downcasting,
which has long been intended. This change means that for any `Error`
trait objects that are `'static`, you can downcast to concrete error
types.
To make this work, it is necessary for `Error` to inherit from
`Reflect` (which is currently used to mark concrete types as "permitted
for reflection, aka downcasting"). This is a breaking change: it means
that impls like
```rust
impl<T> Error for MyErrorType<T> { ... }
```
must change to something like
```rust
impl<T: Reflect> Error for MyErrorType<T> { ... }
```
except that `Reflect` is currently unstable (and should remain so for
the time being). For now, code can instead bound by `Any`:
```rust
impl<T: Any> Error for MyErrorType<T> { ... }
```
which *is* stable and has `Reflect` as a super trait. The downside is
that this imposes a `'static` constraint, but that only
constrains *when* `Error` is implemented -- it does not actually
constrain the types that can implement `Error`.

This commit modifies the standard library and its dependencies to link correctly
when built against MUSL. This primarily ensures that the right libraries are
linked against and when they're linked against they're linked against
statically.
Changes the style guidelines regarding unit tests to recommend using a
sub-module named "tests" instead of "test" for unit tests as "test"
might clash with imports of libtest.
This is an implementation of [RFC 1030][rfc] which adds these traits to the
prelude and additionally removes all inherent `into_iter` methods on collections
in favor of the trait implementation (which is now accessible by default).
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1030
This is technically a breaking change due to the prelude additions and removal
of inherent methods, but it is expected that essentially no code breaks in
practice.

Without the `box` keyword, one of these two reasons is not correct, so
let's just eliminate this section and elaborate on the reason for the
legit use case inline.

This PR implements rust-lang/rfcs#1023. In the process it fixes#23086 and #23516. A few impls in libcore had to be updated, but the impact is generally pretty minimal. Most of the fallout is in the tests that probed the limits of today's coherence.
I tested and we were able to build the most popular crates along with iron (modulo errors around errors being sendable).
Fixes#23918.

While trying to implement parallel ECS processing, I stumbled upon the need to mutate `Arc` contents. The only existed method that allowed that was `make_unique`, but it has issues:
- it may clone the data as if nothing happened, where the program may just need to crash
- it forces `Clone` bound, which I don't have
The new `try_unique` allows accessing the contents mutably without `Clone` bound and error out if the pointer is not unique.
for `Box<FnBox()>`. I found the alias was still handy because it is
shorter than the fully written type.
This is a [breaking-change]: convert code using `Invoke` to use `FnBox`,
which is usually pretty straight-forward. Code using thunk mostly works
if you change `Thunk::new => Box::new` and `foo.invoke(arg)` to
`foo(arg)`.
