Add `Unsupported` to `std::io::ErrorKind`
I noticed a significant portion of the uses of `ErrorKind::Other` in std is for unsupported operations.
The notion that a specific operation is not available on a target (and will thus never succeed) seems semantically distinct enough from just "an unspecified error occurred", which is why I am proposing to add the variant `Unsupported` to `std::io::ErrorKind`.
**Implementation**:
The following variant will be added to `std::io::ErrorKind`:
```rust
/// This operation is unsupported on this platform.
Unsupported
```
`std::io::ErrorKind::Unsupported` is an error returned when a given operation is not supported on a platform, and will thus never succeed; there is no way for the software to recover. It will be used instead of `Other` where appropriate, e.g. on wasm for file and network operations.
`decode_error_kind` will be updated to decode operating system errors to `Unsupported`:
- Unix and VxWorks: `libc::ENOSYS`
- Windows: `c::ERROR_CALL_NOT_IMPLEMENTED`
- WASI: `wasi::ERRNO_NOSYS`
**Stability**:
This changes the kind of error returned by some functions on some platforms, which I think is not covered by the stability guarantees of the std? User code could depend on this behavior, expecting `ErrorKind::Other`, however the docs already mention:
> Errors that are `Other` now may move to a different or a new `ErrorKind` variant in the future. It is not recommended to match an error against `Other` and to expect any additional characteristics, e.g., a specific `Error::raw_os_error` return value.
The most recent variant added to `ErrorKind` was `UnexpectedEof` in `1.6.0` (almost 5 years ago), but `ErrorKind` is marked as `#[non_exhaustive]` and the docs warn about exhaustively matching on it, so adding a new variant per se should not be a breaking change.
The variant `Unsupported` itself could be marked as `#[unstable]`, however, because this PR also immediately uses this new variant and changes the errors returned by functions I'm inclined to agree with the others in this thread that the variant should be insta-stabilized.
Deprecate the core::raw / std::raw module
It only contains the `TraitObject` struct which exposes components of wide pointer. Pointer metadata APIs are designed to replace this: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/81513
Add some #[inline(always)] to arithmetic methods of integers
I tried to add it only to methods which return results of intrinsics and don't have any branching.
Branching could made performance of debug builds (`-Copt-level=0`) worse.
Main goal of changes is allowing wider optimizations in `-Copt-level=1`.

std: Add a variant of thread locals with const init
This commit adds a variant of the `thread_local!` macro as a new
`thread_local_const_init!` macro which requires that the initialization
expression is constant (e.g. could be stuck into a `const` if so
desired). This form of thread local allows for a more efficient
implementation of `LocalKey::with` both if the value has a destructor
and if it doesn't. If the value doesn't have a destructor then `with`
should desugar to exactly as-if you use `#[thread_local]` given
sufficient inlining.
The purpose of this new form of thread locals is to precisely be
equivalent to `#[thread_local]` on platforms where possible for values
which fit the bill (those without destructors). This should help close
the gap in performance between `thread_local!`, which is safe, relative
to `#[thread_local]`, which is not easy to use in a portable fashion.

Fix join_paths error display.
On unix, the error from `join_paths` looked like this:
```
path segment contains separator `58`
```
This PR changes it to look like this:
```
path segment contains separator `:`
```
Move `std::sys_common::alloc` to new module `std::sys::common`
6b56603e35/library/std/src/sys_common/mod.rs (L7-L13)
It was my impression that the goal for `std::sys` has changed from extracting it into a separate crate to making std work with features. However the fact remains that there is a lot of interdependence between `sys` and `sys_common`, this is because `sys_common` contains two types of code:
- abstractions over the different platform implementations in `std::sys` (for example [`std::sys_common::mutex`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/library/std/src/sys_common/mutex.rs))
- code shared between platforms (for example [`std::sys_common::alloc`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/library/std/src/sys_common/alloc.rs))
This PR attempts to address this by adding a new module `common` to `std::sys` which will contain code shared between platforms, `alloc.rs` in this case but more can be moved over in the future.
add lint deref_nullptr detecting when a null ptr is dereferenced
fixes#83856
changelog: add lint that detect code like
```rust
unsafe {
&*core::ptr::null::<i32>()
};
unsafe {
addr_of!(std::ptr::null::<i32>())
};
let x: i32 = unsafe {*core::ptr::null()};
let x: i32 = unsafe {*core::ptr::null_mut()};
unsafe {*(0 as *const i32)};
unsafe {*(core::ptr::null() as *const i32)};
```
```
warning: Dereferencing a null pointer causes undefined behavior
--> src\main.rs:5:26
|
5 | let x: i32 = unsafe {*core::ptr::null()};
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| |
| a null pointer is dereferenced
| this code causes undefined behavior when executed
|
= note: `#[warn(deref_nullptr)]` on by default
```
Limitation:
It does not detect code like
```rust
const ZERO: usize = 0;
unsafe {*(ZERO as *const i32)};
```
or code where `0` is not directly a literal
Improve code example for length comparison
Small fix/improvement: it's much safer to check that you're under the length of an array rather than chacking that you're equal to it. It's even more true in case you update the length of the array while iterating.
Stabilize `bufreader_seek_relative`
This PR marks `BufReader::seek_relative` as stable - the associated issue, #31100, has passed the final comment period without any issues, and from what I understand, the only thing left to stabilize this is to submit a PR marking the method as stable.
Closes#31100.
