Do not create dangling &T in Weak<T>::drop
Since at this point all strong pointers have been dropped, the wrapped `T` has also been dropped. As such, creating a `&T` to the dropped place is negligent at best (language UB at worst). Since we have `Layout::for_value_raw` now, use that instead of `Layout::for_value` to avoid creating the `&T`.
This does have implications for custom (potentially thin) DSTs, though much less severe than those discussed in #80407. Specifically, one of two things has to be true:
- It has to be possible to use a `*const T` to a dropped (potentially custom, potentially thin) unsized tailed object to determine the layout (size/align) of the object. This is what is currently implemented (though with `&T` instead of `&T`). The validity of reading some location after it has been dropped is an open question IIUC (https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines/issues/188) (except when the whole type is `Copy`, per `drop_in_place`'s docs).
In this design, custom DSTs would get a `*mut T` and use that to return layout, and must be able to do so while in the "zombie" (post-drop, pre-free) state.
- `RcBox`/`ArcInner` compute and store layout eagerly, so that they don't have to ask the type for its layout after dropping it.
Importantly, this is already true today, as you can construct `Rc<DST>`, create a `Weak<DST>`, and drop the `Rc` before the `Weak`. This PR is a strict improvement over the status quo, and the above question about potentially thin DSTs will need to be resolved by any custom DST proposal.
refactor: removing library/alloc/src/vec/mod.rs ignore-tidy-filelength
This PR removes the need for ignore-tidy-filelength for library/alloc/src/vec/mod.rs which is part of the issue #60302
It is probably easiest to review this PR by looking at it commit by commit rather than looking at the overall diff.

slightly more typed interface to panic implementation
The panic payload is currently being passed around as a `usize`. However, it actually is a pointer, and the involved types are available on all ends of this API, so I propose we use the proper pointer type to avoid some casts. Avoiding int-to-ptr casts also makes this code work with `miri -Zmiri-track-raw-pointers`.
Add "chr" as doc alias to char::from_u32
Many programming languages provide a function called `chr` - Perl, Python, PHP, Visual Basic, SQL. This change makes `char::from_u32` easier to discover in the documentation.
`ord` is not added as its name conflicts with `Ord` trait, and it's not exactly clear what it could point to (`<u32 as From<char>>::from`?). I don't think it's exactly necessary, as `char::from_u32` documentation page says you can do reverse conversion with `as` operator anyway.
Add "length" as doc alias to len methods
Currently when searching for `length` there are no results: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/?search=length. This makes `len` methods appear when searching for `length`.
Fix intra-doc links for non-path primitives
This does *not* currently work for associated items that are
auto-implemented by the compiler (e.g. `never::eq`), because they aren't
present in the source code. I plan to fix this in a follow-up PR.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/63351 using the approach mentioned in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/63351#issuecomment-683352130.
r? `@Manishearth`
cc `@petrochenkov` - this makes `rustc_resolve::Res` public, is that ok? I'd just add an identical type alias in rustdoc if not, which seems a waste.
Add `impl Div<NonZeroU{0}> for u{0}` which cannot panic
Dividing an unsigned int by a `NonZeroUxx` requires a user to write (for example, in [this SO question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64855738/how-to-inform-the-optimizer-that-nonzerou32get-will-never-return-zero)):
```
pub fn safe_div(x: u32, y: std::num::NonZeroU32) -> u32 {
x / y.get()
}
```
which generates a panicking-checked-div [assembly](https://godbolt.org/#g:!((g:!((g:!((h:codeEditor,i:(fontScale:14,j:1,lang:rust,selection:(endColumn:2,endLineNumber:6,positionColumn:2,positionLineNumber:6,selectionStartColumn:2,selectionStartLineNumber:6,startColumn:2,startLineNumber:6),source:%27pub+fn+div(x:+u32,+y:+u32)+-%3E+u32+%7B%0A++++x+/+y%0A%7D%0Apub+fn+safe_div(x:+u32,+y:+std::num::NonZeroU32)+-%3E+u32+%7B%0A++++x+/+y.get()+//+an+unchecked+division+expected%0A%7D%27),l:%275%27,n:%270%27,o:%27Rust+source+%231%27,t:%270%27)),k:50,l:%274%27,n:%270%27,o:%27%27,s:0,t:%270%27),(g:!((h:compiler,i:(compiler:r1470,filters:(b:%270%27,binary:%271%27,commentOnly:%270%27,demangle:%270%27,directives:%270%27,execute:%271%27,intel:%270%27,libraryCode:%271%27,trim:%271%27),fontScale:14,j:1,lang:rust,libs:!(),options:%27-O%27,selection:(endColumn:1,endLineNumber:1,positionColumn:1,positionLineNumber:1,selectionStartColumn:1,selectionStartLineNumber:1,startColumn:1,startLineNumber:1),source:1),l:%275%27,n:%270%27,o:%27rustc+1.47.0+(Editor+%231,+Compiler+%231)+Rust%27,t:%270%27)),k:50,l:%274%27,n:%270%27,o:%27%27,s:0,t:%270%27)),l:%272%27,n:%270%27,o:%27%27,t:%270%27)),version:4).
Avoiding the `panic` currently requires `unsafe` code.
This PR adds an `impl Div<NonZeroU{0}> for u{0}` (and `impl Rem<NonZeroU{0}> for u{0}`) which calls the `unchecked_div` (and `unchecked_rem`) intrinsic without any additional checks,
making the following code compile:
```
pub fn safe_div(x: u32, y: std::num::NonZeroU32) -> u32 {
x / y
}
pub fn safe_rem(x: u32, y: std::num::NonZeroU32) -> u32 {
x % y
}
```
The doc is set to match the regular div impl [docs](https://doc.rust-lang.org/beta/src/core/ops/arith.rs.html#460).
I've marked these as stable because (as I understand it) trait impls are automatically stable. I'm happy to change it to unstable if needed.
Following `@dtolnay` template from a similar issue:
this adds the following **stable** impls, which rely on dividing unsigned integers by nonzero integers being well defined and previously would have involved unsafe code to encode that knowledge:
```
impl Div<NonZeroU8> for u8 {
type Output = u8;
}
impl Rem<NonZeroU8> for u8 {
type Output = u8;
}
```
and equivalent for u16, u32, u64, u128, usize, but **not** for i8, i16, i32, i64, i128, isize (since -1/MIN is undefined).
