Deprecate offset_to; switch core&alloc to using offset_from instead
Bonus: might make code than uses `.len()` on slice iterators faster

Stabilize inclusive range (`..=`)
Stabilize the followings:
* `inclusive_range` — The `std::ops::RangeInclusive` and `std::ops::RangeInclusiveTo` types, except its fields (tracked by #49022 separately).
* `inclusive_range_syntax` — The `a..=b` and `..=b` expression syntax
* `dotdoteq_in_patterns` — Using `a..=b` in a pattern

Stabilize FusedIterator
FusedIterator is a marker trait that promises that the implementing
iterator continues to return `None` from `.next()` once it has returned
`None` once (and/or `.next_back()`, if implemented).
The effects of FusedIterator are already widely available through
`.fuse()`, but with stable `FusedIterator`, stable Rust users can
implement this trait for their iterators when appropriate.
Closes#35602

These guarantee that always the requested slice size will be returned
and any leftoever elements at the end will be ignored. It allows llvm to
get rid of bounds checks in the code using the iterator.
This is inspired by the same iterators provided by ndarray.

This commit removes the `rand` crate from the standard library facade as
well as the `__rand` module in the standard library. Neither of these
were used in any meaningful way in the standard library itself. The only
need for randomness in libstd is to initialize the thread-local keys of
a `HashMap`, and that unconditionally used `OsRng` defined in the
standard library anyway.
The cruft of the `rand` crate and the extra `rand` support in the
standard library makes libstd slightly more difficult to port to new
platforms, namely WebAssembly which doesn't have any randomness at all
(without interfacing with JS). The purpose of this commit is to clarify
and streamline randomness in libstd, focusing on how it's only required
in one location, hashmap seeds.
Note that the `rand` crate out of tree has almost always been a drop-in
replacement for the `rand` crate in-tree, so any usage (accidental or
purposeful) of the crate in-tree should switch to the `rand` crate on
crates.io. This then also has the further benefit of avoiding
duplication (mostly) between the two crates!
We don't want to stabilize them now already. The goal of this set of
commits is just to add inherent methods to the four types. Stabilizing
all of those methods can be done later.
Add iterator method .rfold(init, function); the reverse of fold
rfold is the reverse version of fold.
Fold allows iterators to implement a different (non-resumable) internal
iteration when it is more efficient than the external iteration implemented
through the next method. (Common examples are VecDeque and .chain()).
Introduce rfold() so that the same customization is available for reverse
iteration. This is achieved by both adding the method, and by having the
Rev\<I> adaptor connect Rev::rfold → I::fold and Rev::fold → I::rfold.
On the surface, rfold(..) is just .rev().fold(..), but the special case
implementations allow a data structure specific fold to be used through for
example .iter().rev(); we thus have gains even for users never calling exactly
rfold themselves.
