As per T-lang consensus, this uses a branch to handle the dangling case.
The discussed optimization of only doing the branch in the T: ?Sized
case is left for a followup patch, as doing so is not trivial
(as it requires specialization for correctness, not just optimization).
remove allow(incomplete_features) from std

> Now I am somewhat concerned that the standard library uses some of these features...
I think it is theoretically ok to use incomplete features in the standard library or the compiler if we know that there is an already working subset and we explicitly document what we have to be careful about. Though at that point it is probably better to try and split the incomplete feature into two separate ones, similar to `min_specialization`.
Will be interesting once `feature(const_evaluatable_checked)` works well enough to imo be used in the compiler but not yet well enough to be removed from `INCOMPLETE_FEATURES`.

Remove many unnecessary manual link resolves from library
Now that #76934 has merged, we can remove a lot of these! E.g, this is

The return of the GroupBy and GroupByMut iterators on slice
According to https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2477#issuecomment-742034372, I am opening this PR again, this time I implemented it in safe Rust only, it is therefore much easier to read and is completely safe.
This PR proposes to add two new methods to the slice, the `group_by` and `group_by_mut`. These two methods provide a way to iterate over non-overlapping sub-slices of a base slice that are separated by the predicate given by the user (e.g. `Partial::eq`, `|a, b| a.abs() < b.abs()`).
```rust
let slice = &[1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2];
let mut iter = slice.group_by(|a, b| a == b);
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&[1, 1, 1][..]));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&[3, 3][..]));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&[2, 2, 2][..]));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), None);
```
[An RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2477) was open 2 years ago but wasn't necessary.

Do not create dangling &T in Weak<T>::drop
Since at this point all strong pointers have been dropped, the wrapped `T` has also been dropped. As such, creating a `&T` to the dropped place is negligent at best (language UB at worst). Since we have `Layout::for_value_raw` now, use that instead of `Layout::for_value` to avoid creating the `&T`.
This does have implications for custom (potentially thin) DSTs, though much less severe than those discussed in #80407. Specifically, one of two things has to be true:
- It has to be possible to use a `*const T` to a dropped (potentially custom, potentially thin) unsized tailed object to determine the layout (size/align) of the object. This is what is currently implemented (though with `&T` instead of `&T`). The validity of reading some location after it has been dropped is an open question IIUC (https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines/issues/188) (except when the whole type is `Copy`, per `drop_in_place`'s docs).
In this design, custom DSTs would get a `*mut T` and use that to return layout, and must be able to do so while in the "zombie" (post-drop, pre-free) state.
- `RcBox`/`ArcInner` compute and store layout eagerly, so that they don't have to ask the type for its layout after dropping it.
Importantly, this is already true today, as you can construct `Rc<DST>`, create a `Weak<DST>`, and drop the `Rc` before the `Weak`. This PR is a strict improvement over the status quo, and the above question about potentially thin DSTs will need to be resolved by any custom DST proposal.
Add "length" as doc alias to len methods
Currently when searching for `length` there are no results: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/?search=length. This makes `len` methods appear when searching for `length`.

BTreeMap: relax the explicit borrow rule to make code shorter and safer
Expressions like `.reborrow_mut().into_len_mut()` are annoyingly long, and kind of dangerous for the reason `reborrow_mut()` is unsafe. By relaxing the single rule, we no longer have to make an exception for functions with a `borrow` name and functions like `as_leaf_mut`. This is largely restoring the declaration style of the btree::node API about a year ago, but with more explanation and consistency.

Stabilize or_insert_with_key
Stabilizes the `or_insert_with_key` feature from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/71024. This allows inserting key-derived values when a `HashMap`/`BTreeMap` entry is vacant.
The difference between this and `.or_insert_with(|| ... )` is that this provides a reference to the key to the closure after it is moved with `.entry(key_being_moved)`, avoiding the need to copy or clone the key.
Fix overflow when converting ZST Vec to VecDeque
```rust
let v = vec![(); 100];
let queue = VecDeque::from(v);
println!("{:?}", queue);
```
This code will currently panic with a capacity overflow.
This PR resolves this issue and makes the code run fine.
Resolves#78532
Do not inline finish_grow
Fixes#78471.
Looking at libgkrust.a in Firefox, the sizes for the `gkrust.*.o` file is:
- 18584816 (text) 582418 (data) with unmodified master
- 17937659 (text) 582554 (data) with #72227 reverted
- 17968228 (text) 582858 (data) with `#[inline(never)]` on `grow_amortized` and `grow_exact`, but that has some performance consequences
- 17927760 (text) 582322 (data) with this change
So in terms of size, at least in the case of Firefox, this patch more than undoes the regression. I don't think it should affect performance, but we'll see.
doc(array,vec): add notes about side effects when empty-initializing
Copying some context from a conversation in the Rust discord:
* Both `vec![T; 0]` and `[T; 0]` are syntactically valid, and produce empty containers of their respective types
* Both *also* have side effects:
```rust
fn side_effect() -> String {
println!("side effect!");
"foo".into()
}
fn main() {
println!("before!");
let x = vec![side_effect(); 0];
let y = [side_effect(); 0];
println!("{:?}, {:?}", x, y);
}
```
produces:
```
before!
side effect!
side effect!
[], []
```
This PR just adds two small notes to each's documentation, warning users that side effects can occur.
I've also submitted a clippy proposal: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/6439

Clarify that String::split_at takes a byte index.
To someone skimming through the `String` docs and only reads the first line, the person could interpret "index" to be "char index". Later on in the docs it clarifies, but by adding "byte" it removes that ambiguity.
Privatize some of libcore unicode_internals
My understanding is that these API are perma unstable, so it doesn't
make sense to pollute docs & IDE completion[1] with them.
