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).
`[].split_inclusive()` currently yields a single, empty slice. That's
different from `"".split_inslusive()`, which yields no output at
all. I think that makes the slice version harder to use.
The case where I ran into this bug was when writing code for
generating a diff between two slices of bytes. I wanted to prefix
removed lines with "-" and a added lines with "+". Due to
`split_inclusive()`'s current behavior, that means that my code prints
just a "-" or "+" for empty files. I suspect most existing callers
have similar "bugs" (which would be fixed by this patch).
Closes#89716.
Adds extensive test for all the [r]split* iterators.
Fixes size_hint upper bound for split_inclusive* iterators which was one higher than necessary for non-empty slices.
Fixes size_hint lower bound for [r]splitn* iterators when n==0, which was one too high.
The previous `assert_eq` generated quite some code, which is especially
problematic when this call is inlined. This commit also slightly
improves the panic message from:
assertion failed: `(left == right)`
left: `3`,
right: `2`: destination and source slices have different lengths
...to:
source slice length (2) does not match destination slice length (3)
