Add section on common message styles for Result::expect
Based on a question from https://github.com/rust-lang/project-error-handling/issues/50#issuecomment-1092339937
~~One thing I haven't decided on yet, should I duplicate this section on `Option::expect`, link to this section, or move it somewhere else and link to that location from both docs?~~: I ended up moving the section to `std::error` and referencing it from both `Result::expect` and `Option::expect`'s docs.
I think this section, when combined with the similar update I made on [`std::panic!`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/macro.panic.html#when-to-use-panic-vs-result) implies that we should possibly more aggressively encourage and support the "expect as precondition" style described in this section. The consensus among the libs team seems to be that panic should be used for bugs, not expected potential failure modes. The "expect as error message" style seems to align better with the panic for unrecoverable errors style where they're seen as normal errors where the only difference is a desire to kill the current execution unit (aka erlang style error handling). I'm wondering if we should be providing a panic hook similar to `human-panic` or more strongly recommending the "expect as precondition" style of expect message.
Remove `#[rustc_deprecated]`
This removes `#[rustc_deprecated]` and introduces diagnostics to help users to the right direction (that being `#[deprecated]`). All uses of `#[rustc_deprecated]` have been converted. CI is expected to fail initially; this requires #95958, which includes converting `stdarch`.
I plan on following up in a short while (maybe a bootstrap cycle?) removing the diagnostics, as they're only intended to be short-term.
Relevant commit messages from squashed history in order:
Add initial version of ThinBox
update test to actually capture failure
swap to middle ptr impl based on matthieu-m's design
Fix stack overflow in debug impl
The previous version would take a `&ThinBox<T>` and deref it once, which
resulted in a no-op and the same type, which it would then print causing
an endless recursion. I've switched to calling `deref` by name to let
method resolution handle deref the correct number of times.
I've also updated the Drop impl for good measure since it seemed like it
could be falling prey to the same bug, and I'll be adding some tests to
verify that the drop is happening correctly.
add test to verify drop is behaving
add doc examples and remove unnecessary Pointee bounds
ThinBox: use NonNull
ThinBox: tests for size
Apply suggestions from code review

use handle_alloc_error and fix drop signature
update niche and size tests
add cfg for allocating APIs
check null before calculating offset
add test for zst and trial usage
prevent optimizer induced ub in drop and cleanup metadata gathering

This updates the standard library's documentation to use the new syntax. The
documentation is worthwhile to update as it should be more idiomatic
(particularly for features like this, which are nice for users to get acquainted
with). The general codebase is likely more hassle than benefit to update: it'll
hurt git blame, and generally updates can be done by folks updating the code if
(and when) that makes things more readable with the new format.
A few places in the compiler and library code are updated (mostly just due to
already having been done when this commit was first authored).
Add `std::error::Report` type
This is a continuation of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/90174, split into a separate PR since I cannot push to ```````@seanchen1991``````` 's fork
In commit 29403ee, documentation for the methods on `std::any::Any` was
modified so that they referred to the concrete value behind the trait
object as the "inner" value. This is a more accurate wording than
"boxed": while putting trait objects inside boxes is arguably the most
common use, they can also be placed behind other pointer types like
`&mut` or `std::sync::Arc`.
This commit does the same documentation changes for `std::error::Error`.
Previously suggested in https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/2854.
It makes sense to have this since `char` implements `From<u8>`. Likewise
`u32`, `u64`, and `u128` (since #79502) implement `From<char>`.
Using it through the crate-local path in `std` means that it shouldn't make an "Implementations on Foreign Types" section in the `std::error::Error` docs.
Add functions `Duration::try_from_secs_{f32, f64}`
These functions allow constructing a Duration from a floating point value that could be out of range without panicking.
Tracking issue: #83400
