This documentation confused me when trying to use truncate on a project. Originally, it was unclear whether truncate removed the last `len` elements, or whether it cut down the vector to be exactly `len` elements long. The example was also ambiguous.
This fixes#29048 (though I think adding better transactional support would be a better fix for that issue, but that is more difficult). It also simplifies region inference and changes the model to a pure data flow one, as discussed in [this internals thread](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/rough-thoughts-on-the-impl-of-region-inference-mir-etc/2800). I am not 100% sure though if this PR is the right thing to do -- or at least maybe not at this moment, so thoughts on that would be appreciated.

This is two sentences that have been comma spliced, and should
be split with a full stop. (This error made me stop and re-read,
and I submit this as an actual improvement to readability, not
as a grammar weird-o!)
This helps for the case where a match, such as below:
```rust
let foo = match foo {
Some(x) => x,
None => 0
};
```
gets refactored to no longer need the match, but the match keyword has been left accidentally:
```rust
let foo = match foo.unwrap_or(0);
```
This can be hard to spot as the expression grows more complex.

I put the reference under the function return operator `->` rather than near the suggested `!` operators as I thought it was more relevant there.

I recently discovered that this is not mentioned in the docs, only in
the examples, and it's not evident for people coming from C++

expansion already by growing the RHS to be bigger than LHS (all the way
to `'static` if necessary). This is needed because contraction doesn't
handle givens. Fixes#28934.
empty region, and they complicate region inference to no particular end.
They also lead in some cases to spurious errors like #29048 (though in
some cases these errors are helpful in tracking down missing
constraints).
