This commit moves the free functions in the `rc`, `arc`, and `boxed` modules to
associated functions on their respective types, following the recent trend
towards this pattern. The previous free functions are all left in-place with
`#[deprecated]` pointers towards the new locations.
This commit also deprecates `arc::get_mut` and `Arc::make_unique` with no
replacement as they are racy in the face of weak pointers.
This commit shards the broad `core` feature of the libcore library into finer
grained features. This split groups together similar APIs and enables tracking
each API separately, giving a better sense of where each feature is within the
stabilization process.
A few minor APIs were deprecated along the way:
* Iterator::reverse_in_place
* marker::NoCopy
This is a revert of PR #26008 which caused the unintended breakage reported in #26096. We may want to add these implementations in the long run, but for now this revert allows us to take some more time to evaluate the impact of such a change (e.g. run it through crater).
Closes#26096
This is a temporary mitigation for issue #24880 which points out that
these functions are racy in a particular situation where weak pointers
exist.
To mitigate this, mark the functions unsafe until this can be fixed or
another decision is made.
This is a breaking change to unstable API, because the new version
requires an `unsafe` block. Review carefully if weak pointers may race
for any uses of this API and consider abandoning it.

Use stable code in doc examples (libcollections)
Main task is to change from String::from_str to String::from in examples for String
(the latter constructor is stable). While I'm at it, also remove redundant feature flags,
fix some other instances of unstable code in examples (in examples for stable
methods), and remove some use of usize in examples too.
Prefer String::from over from_str; String::from_str is unstable while
String::from is stable. Promote the latter by using it in examples.
Simply migrating unstable function to the closest alternative.
* segfault due to not copying drop flag when coercing
* fat pointer casts
* segfault due to not checking drop flag properly
* debuginfo for DST smart pointers
* unreachable code in drop glue
They're only enabled in debug builds, but a panic is usually more
welcome than UB in debug builds.

An automated script was run against the `.rs` and `.md` files,
subsituting every occurrence of `task` with `thread`. In the `.rs`
files, only the texts in the comment blocks were affected.
This commit brings the `Error` trait in line with the [Error interoperation
RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/201) by adding downcasting,
which has long been intended. This change means that for any `Error`
trait objects that are `'static`, you can downcast to concrete error
types.
To make this work, it is necessary for `Error` to inherit from
`Reflect` (which is currently used to mark concrete types as "permitted
for reflection, aka downcasting"). This is a breaking change: it means
that impls like
```rust
impl<T> Error for MyErrorType<T> { ... }
```
must change to something like
```rust
impl<T: Reflect> Error for MyErrorType<T> { ... }
```
except that `Reflect` is currently unstable (and should remain so for
the time being). For now, code can instead bound by `Any`:
```rust
impl<T: Any> Error for MyErrorType<T> { ... }
```
which *is* stable and has `Reflect` as a super trait. The downside is
that this imposes a `'static` constraint, but that only
constrains *when* `Error` is implemented -- it does not actually
constrain the types that can implement `Error`.

This commit modifies the standard library and its dependencies to link correctly
when built against MUSL. This primarily ensures that the right libraries are
linked against and when they're linked against they're linked against
statically.
Changes the style guidelines regarding unit tests to recommend using a
sub-module named "tests" instead of "test" for unit tests as "test"
might clash with imports of libtest.
This is an implementation of [RFC 1030][rfc] which adds these traits to the
prelude and additionally removes all inherent `into_iter` methods on collections
in favor of the trait implementation (which is now accessible by default).
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1030
This is technically a breaking change due to the prelude additions and removal
of inherent methods, but it is expected that essentially no code breaks in
practice.

Without the `box` keyword, one of these two reasons is not correct, so
let's just eliminate this section and elaborate on the reason for the
legit use case inline.
