The previous implementation used slice::as_mut_ptr_range to derive the
pointer for the spare capacity slice. This is invalid, because that
pointer is derived from the initialized region, so it does not have
provenance over the uninitialized region.
Update example code for Vec::splice to change the length
The current example for `Vec::splice` illustrates the replacement of a section of length 2 with a new section of length 2. This isn't a particularly interesting case for splice, and makes it look a bit like a shorthand for the kind of manipulations that could be done with a mutable slice.
In order to provide a stronger example, this updates the example to use different lengths for the source and destination regions, and uses a slice from the middle of the vector to illustrate that this does not necessarily have to be at the beginning or the end.
Resolves#92067
Revert "Temporarily rename int_roundings functions to avoid conflicts"
This reverts commit 3ece63b64e192146fcdd1724e25856a93d7626aa.
This should be okay because #90329 has been merged.
r? `@joshtriplett`
The src pointers in CopyOnDrop and InsertionHole used to be *mut T, and
were derived via automatic conversion from &mut T. According to Stacked
Borrows 2.1, this means that those pointers become invalidated by
interior mutation in the comparison function.
But there's no need for mutability in this code path. Thus, we can
change the drop guards to use *const and derive those from &T.
Add a space and 2 grave accents
I only noticed this because I have this implementation copy pasted in some places in my code and I really can't wait for this to be stabilized...
Update stdlib to the 2021 edition
progress towards https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/88638
I couldnt find a way to run the 2018 style panic tests against 2018 so I just deleted them, maybe theres a way to do it that I missed though?
Mark defaulted `PartialEq`/`PartialOrd` methods as const
WIthout it, `const` impls of these traits are unpleasant to write. I think this kind of change is allowed now. although it looks like it might require some Miri tweaks. Let's find out.

Do array-slice equality via array equality, rather than always via slices
~~Draft because it needs a rebase after #91766 eventually gets through bors.~~
This enables the optimizations from #85828 to be used for array-to-slice comparisons too, not just array-to-array.
For example, <https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=nightly&mode=release&edition=2021&gist=5f9ba69b3d5825a782f897c830d3a6aa>
```rust
pub fn demo(x: &[u8], y: [u8; 4]) -> bool {
*x == y
}
```
Currently writes the array to stack for no reason:
```nasm
sub rsp, 4
mov dword ptr [rsp], edx
cmp rsi, 4
jne .LBB0_1
mov eax, dword ptr [rdi]
cmp eax, dword ptr [rsp]
sete al
add rsp, 4
ret
.LBB0_1:
xor eax, eax
add rsp, 4
ret
```
Whereas with the change in this PR it just compares it directly:
```nasm
cmp rsi, 4
jne .LBB1_1
cmp dword ptr [rdi], edx
sete al
ret
.LBB1_1:
xor eax, eax
ret
```
Add `io::Error::other`
This PR adds a small utility constructor, `io::Error::other`, a shorthand for `io::Error::new(io::ErrorKind::Other, err)`, something I find myself writing often.
For some concrete stats, a quick search on [grep.app](https://grep.app) shows that more than half of the uses of `io::Error::new` use `ErrorKind::Other`:
```
Error::new\((?:std::)?(?:io::)?ErrorKind:: => 3,898 results
Error::new\((?:std::)?(?:io::)?ErrorKind::Other => 2,186 results
```
Most of these problems originate in use of get_unchecked_mut.
When calling ptr::copy_nonoverlapping, using get_unchecked_mut for both
arguments causes the borrow created to make the second pointer to invalid the
first.
The pairs of identical MaybeUninit::slice_as_mut_ptr calls similarly
invalidate each other.
There was also a similar borrow invalidation problem with the use of
slice::get_unchecked_mut to derive the pointer for the CopyOnDrop.
link to pref_align_of tracking issue
If we are not going to remove this intrinsic (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/90877), I think we should at least have a place to centralize discussion around it, so here we go. Intrinsics don't have their own separate features and usually we instead use the public method for tracking it, but this one does not have such a method... so the tracking issue is just a regular link. (And then we sue it for the const part as well.)

Constify `bool::then{,_some}`
Note on `~const Drop`: it has no effect when called from runtime functions, when called from const contexts, the trait system ensures that the type can be dropped in const contexts.
