Trait upcasting coercion (part2)
This is the second part of trait upcasting coercion implementation.
Currently this is blocked on #86264 .
The third part might be implemented using unsafety checking

Add convenience method for handling ipv4-mapped addresses by canonicalizing them
This simplifies checking common properties in an address-family-agnostic
way since #86335 commits to not checking IPv4 semantics
of IPv4-mapped addresses in the `Ipv6Addr` property methods.
Add `aarch64-apple-ios-sim` as a possible target to the manifest
This should allow rustup and similar to actually make use of this new
target now.

Fix a parser ICE on invalid `fn` body
Fixes#87635
A better fix would add a check for `fn` body on `expected_one_of_not_found` but I haven't come up with a graceful way. Any idea?

Properly find owner of closure in THIR unsafeck
Previously, when encountering a closure in a constant, the THIR unsafeck gets invoked on the owner of the constant instead of the constant itself, producing cycles.
Supersedes #87492. ```@FabianWolff``` thanks for your work on that PR, I copied your test file and added you as a co-author.
Fixes#87414.

Support negative numbers in Literal::from_str
proc_macro::Literal has allowed negative numbers in a single literal token ever since Rust 1.29, using https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/proc_macro/struct.Literal.html#method.isize_unsuffixed and similar constructors.
```rust
let lit = proc_macro::Literal::isize_unsuffixed(-10);
```
However, the suite of constructors on Literal is not sufficient for all use cases, for example arbitrary precision floats, or custom suffixes in FFI macros.
```rust
let lit = proc_macro::Literal::f64_unsuffixed(0.101001000100001000001000000100000001); // :(
let lit = proc_macro::Literal::i???_suffixed(10ulong); // :(
```
For those, macros construct the literal using from_str instead, which preserves arbitrary precision, custom suffixes, base, and digit grouping.
```rust
let lit = "0.101001000100001000001000000100000001".parse::<Literal>().unwrap();
let lit = "10ulong".parse::<Literal>().unwrap();
let lit = "0b1000_0100_0010_0001".parse::<Literal>().unwrap();
```
However, until this PR it was not possible to construct a literal token that is **both** negative **and** preserving of arbitrary precision etc.
This PR fixes `Literal::from_str` to recognize negative integer and float literals.
Commit to not supporting IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses
Stabilization of the `ip` feature has for a long time been blocked on the question of whether Rust should support handling "IPv4-in-IPv6" addresses: should the various `Ipv6Address` property methods take IPv4-mapped or IPv4-compatible addresses into account. See also the IPv4-in-IPv6 Address Support issue #85609 and #69772 which originally asked the question.
# Overview
In the recent PR #85655 I proposed changing `is_loopback` to take IPv4-mapped addresses into account, so `::ffff:127.0.0.1` would be recognized as a looback address. However, due to the points that came up in that PR, I alternatively propose the following: Keeping the current behaviour and commit to not assigning any special meaning for IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses, other than what the standards prescribe. This would apply to the stable method `is_loopback`, but also to currently unstable methods like `is_global` and `is_documentation` and any future methods. This is implemented in this PR as a change in documentation, specifically the following section:
> Both types of addresses are not assigned any special meaning by this implementation, other than what the relevant standards prescribe. This means that an address like `::ffff:127.0.0.1`, while representing an IPv4 loopback address, is not itself an IPv6 loopback address; only `::1` is. To handle these so called "IPv4-in-IPv6" addresses, they have to first be converted to their canonical IPv4 address.
# Discussion
In the discussion for or against supporting IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses the question what would be least surprising for users of other languages has come up several times. At first it seemed most big other languages supported IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses (or at least considered `::ffff:127.0.0.1` a loopback address). However after further investigation it appears that supporting IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses comes down to how a language represents addresses. .Net and Go do not have a separate type for IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, and do consider `::ffff:127.0.0.1` a loopback address. Java and Python, which do have separate types, do not consider `::ffff:127.0.0.1` a loopback address. Seeing as Rust has the separate `Ipv6Addr` type, it would make sense to also not support IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses. Note that this focuses on IPv4-mapped addresses, no other language handles IPv4-compatible addresses.
Another issue that was raised is how useful supporting these IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses would be in practice. Again with the example of `::ffff:127.0.0.1`, considering it a loopback address isn't too useful as to use it with most of the socket APIs it has to be converted to an IPv4 address anyway. From that perspective it would be better to instead provide better ways for doing this conversion like stabilizing `to_ipv4_mapped` or introducing a `to_canonical` method.
A point in favour of not supporting IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses is that that is the behaviour Rust has always had, and that supporting it would require changing already stable functions like `is_loopback`. This also keeps the documentation of these functions simpler, as we only have to refer to the relevant definitions in the IPv6 specification.
# Decision
To make progress on the `ip` feature, a decision needs to be made on whether or not to support IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses.
There are several options:
- Keep the current implementation and commit to never supporting IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses (accept this PR).
- Support IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses in some/all `IPv6Addr` methods (accept PR #85655).
- Keep the current implementation and but not commit to anything yet (reject both this PR and PR #85655), this entire issue will however come up again in the stabilization of several methods under the `ip` feature.
There are more options, like supporting IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses in `IpAddr` methods instead, but to my knowledge those haven't been seriously argued for by anyone.
There is currently an FCP ongoing on PR #85655. I would ask the libs team for an alternative FCP on this PR as well, which if completed means the rejection of PR #85655, and the decision to commit to not supporting IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses.
If anyone feels there is not enough evidence yet to make the decision for or against supporting IPv4-in-IPv6 addresses, let me know and I'll do whatever I can to resolve it.
This simplifies checking common properties in an address-family-agnostic
way since since #86335 commits to not checking IPv4 semantics
of IPv4-mapped addresses in the `Ipv6Addr` property methods.
Add missing "allocated object" doc link to `<*mut T>::add`
The portion of the documentation expecting the link was already there, but it was rendered as "[allocated object]". The added reference is just copied from the documentation for `<*const T>::add`.
Implement a `explicit_generic_args_with_impl_trait` feature gate
Implements #83701
When this gate is enabled, explicit generic arguments can be specified even if `impl Trait` is used in argument position. Generic arguments can only be specified for explicit generic parameters but not for the synthetic type parameters from `impl Trait`
So code like this will be accepted:
```rust
#![feature(explicit_generic_args_with_impl_trait)]
fn foo<T: ?Sized>(_f: impl AsRef<T>) {}
fn main() {
foo::<str>("".to_string());
}
```
CTFE: throw unsupported error when partially overwriting a pointer
Currently, during CTFE, when a write to memory would overwrite parts of a pointer, we make the remaining parts of that pointer "uninitialized". This is probably not what users expect, so if this ever happens they will be quite confused about why some of the data just vanishes for seemingly no good reason.
So I propose we change this to abort CTFE when that happens, to at last avoid silently doing the wrong thing.
Cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87184
Our CTFE test suite still seems to pass. However, we should probably crater this, and I want to do some tests with Miri as well.
rfc3052 followup: Remove authors field from Cargo manifests
Since RFC 3052 soft deprecated the authors field, hiding it from
crates.io, docs.rs, and making Cargo not add it by default, and it is
not generally up to date/useful information for contributors, we may as well
remove it from crates in this repo.
When this gate is enabled, explicit generic arguments can be specified even
if `impl Trait` is used in argument position. Generic arguments can only be
specified for explicit generic parameters but not for the synthetic type
parameters from `impl Trait`
Recommend `swap_remove` in `Vec::remove` docs
I was able to increase the performance (by 20%!) of my project by changing a `Vec::remove` call to `Vec::swap_remove` in a hot function. I think we should explicitly put a note in the Vec::remove docs to guide people in the right direction so they don't make a similar oversight.
