Prevent broken pipes causing ICEs
As the private `std::io::print_to` panics if there is an I/O error, which is used by `println!`, the compiler would ICE if one attempted to use a broken pipe (e.g. `rustc --help | false`). This introduces a new (private) macro `try_println!` which allows us to avoid this.
As a side note, it seems this macro might be useful publicly (and actually there seems to be [a crate specifically for this purpose](https://crates.io/crates/try_print/)), though that can probably be left for a future discussion.
One slight alternative approach would be to simply early exit without an error (i.e. exit code `0`), which [this comment](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/34376#issuecomment-377822526) suggests is the usual approach. I've opted not to take that approach initially, because I think it's more helpful to know when there is a broken pipe.
Fixes#34376.
rustdoc: port the -C option from rustc
Blocked on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/49864. The included test won't work without those changes, so this PR includes those commits as well.
When documenting items that require certain target features, it helps to be able to force those target features into existence. Rather than include a flag just to parse those features, i instead decided to port the `-C` flag from rustc in its entirety. It takes the same parameters, because it runs through the same parsing function. This has the added benefit of being able to control the codegen of doctests as well.
One concern i have with the flag is that i set it to stable here. My rationale is that it is a direct port of functionality on rustc that is currently stable, used only in mechanisms that it is originally used for. If needed, i can set it back to be unstable.
add target features when extracting and running doctests
When rendering documentation, rustdoc will happily load target features into the cfg environment from the current target, but fails to do this when doing anything with doctests. This would lead to situations where, thanks to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/48759, functions tagged with `#[target_feature]` couldn't run doctests, thanks to the automatic `#[doc(cfg(target_feature = "..."))]`.
Currently, there's no way to pass codegen options to rustdoc that will affect its rustc sessions, but for now this will let you use target features that come default on the platform you're targeting.

Merge the std_unicode crate into the core crate
[The standard library facade](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/27783) has historically contained a number of crates with different roles, but that number has decreased over time. `rand` and `libc` have moved to crates.io, and [`collections` was merged into `alloc`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/42648). Today we have `core` that applies everywhere, `std` that expects a full operating system, and `alloc` in-between that only requires a memory allocator (which can be provided by users)… and `std_unicode`, which doesn’t really have a reason to be separate anymore. It contains functionality based on Unicode data tables that can be large, but as long as relevant functions are not called the tables should be removed from binaries by linkers.
This deprecates the unstable `std_unicode` crate and moves all of its contents into `core`, replacing them with `pub use` reexports. The crate can be removed later. This also removes the `CharExt` trait (replaced with inherent methods in libcore) and `UnicodeStr` trait (merged into `StrExt`). There traits were both unstable and not intended to be used or named directly.
A number of new items are newly-available in libcore and instantly stable there, but only if they were already stable in libstd.
Fixes#49319.
Use sort_by_cached_key where appropriate
A follow-up to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/48639, converting various slice sorting calls to `sort_by_cached_key` when the key functions are more expensive.
rustdoctest: suppress the default allow(unused) under --display-warnings
If you're passing rustdoc `--display-warnings`, you probably want to see the default ones too. This change modifies `test::make_test` to suppress the default `#![allow(unused)]` if the `--display-warnings` CLI flag was provided to rustdoc.

rustdoc: add an --edition flag to compile docs/doctests with a certain edition
To correspond with the 2018 edition, this adds a (currently unstable) `--edition` flag to rustdoc that makes it compile crates and doctests with the given edition. Once this lands, Cargo should be updated to pass this flag when the edition configuration option is given.
Implement some trivial size_hints for various iterators
This also implements ExactSizeIterator where applicable.
Addresses most of the Iterator traits mentioned in #23708.
I intend to do more, but I don't want to make the PR too large.
