* Reexport io::mem and io::buffered structs directly under io, make mem/buffered
private modules
* Remove with_mem_writer
* Remove DEFAULT_CAPACITY and use DEFAULT_BUF_SIZE (in io::buffered)
This commit uniforms the short title of modules provided by libstd,
in order to make their roles more explicit when glancing at the index.

It is simply defined as `f64` across every platform right now.
A use case hasn't been presented for a `float` type defined as the
highest precision floating point type implemented in hardware on the
platform. Performance-wise, using the smallest precision correct for the
use case greatly saves on cache space and allows for fitting more
numbers into SSE/AVX registers.
If there was a use case, this could be implemented as simply a type
alias or a struct thanks to `#[cfg(...)]`.
Closes#6592

The trait will keep the `Iterator` naming, but a more concise module
name makes using the free functions less verbose. The module will define
iterables in addition to iterators, as it deals with iteration in
general.
Address issue #5257, for example these values all had the same hash value:
("aaa", "bbb", "ccc")
("aaab", "bb", "ccc")
("aaabbb", "", "ccc")
IterBytes for &[A] now includes the length, before calling iter_bytes on
each element.
IterBytes for &str is now terminated by a byte that does not appear in
UTF-8. This way only one more byte is processed when hashing strings.
I removed the `static-method-test.rs` test because it was heavily based
on `BaseIter` and there are plenty of other more complex uses of static
methods anyway.
