Partial future-proofing for Box<T, A>
In some ways, this is similar to @eddyb's PR #47043 that went stale, but doesn't cover everything. Notably, this still leaves Box internalized as a pointer in places, so practically speaking, only ZSTs can be practically added to the Box type with the changes here (the compiler ICEs otherwise).
The Box type is not changed here, that's left for the future because I want to test that further first, but this puts things in place in a way that hopefully will make things easier.
As of now, Box only contains a Unique pointer, so this is the sole
argument to box_free. Consequently, we remove the code supporting
the previous box_free signature. We however keep the old definition
for bootstrapping purpose.
