This takes a whole 3 lines in `compiler/` since it lowers to `CastKind::Transmute` in MIR *exactly* the same as the existing `intrinsics::transmute` does, it just doesn't have the fancy checking in `hir_typeck`.
Added to enable experimenting with the request in <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/106281#issuecomment-1496648190> and because the portable-simd folks might be interested for dependently-sized array-vector conversions.
It also simplifies a couple places in `core`.
LLVM can usually optimize these away, but especially for things like transmutes of newtypes it's silly to generate the `alloc`+`store`+`load` at all when it's actually a nop at LLVM level.
Updates `interpret`, `codegen_ssa`, and `codegen_cranelift` to consume the new cast instead of the intrinsic.
Includes `CastTransmute` for custom MIR building, to be able to test the extra UB.
Previously, it was only put on scalars with range validity invariants
like bool, was uninit was obviously invalid for those.
Since then, we have normatively declared all uninit primitives to be
undefined behavior and can therefore put `noundef` on them.
The remaining concern was the `mem::uninitialized` function, which cause
quite a lot of UB in the older parts of the ecosystem. This function now
doesn't return uninit values anymore, making users of it safe from this
change.
The only real sources of UB where people could encounter uninit
primitives are `MaybeUninit::uninit().assume_init()`, which has always
be clear in the docs about being UB and from heap allocations (like
reading from the spare capacity of a vec. This is hopefully rare enough
to not break anything.
