clean up example on read_to_string
This is the same thing, but simpler.
This came out of a comment from a user: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25318117 but rather than hide the signature of main, I think a `use` plus not including the `'static` makes more sense.
Bump libc dependency of std to 0.2.93
Update `libc` dependency of `std` to the latest version. That allows to consume the https://github.com/rust-lang/libc/pull/2131 fix and fix build for the `mipsel-unknown-linux-uclibc` target.

Add note about reverting a workaround in the future
The root cause was fixed upstream in LLVM main. This adds a reminder to revert the workaround once the LLVM rustc depends on is new enough. Since I'm not sure how such optimizations get routed to LLVM releases, I used the conservative assumption that it will only show up with LLVM 13.
fix incorrect Box::from_raw_in doctest
Now that Miri can run doctests, I ran it on liballoc, and found exactly one problem: this test creates a `Box<u8>` to deallocate a 4-byte allocation!

Stabilize `peekable_peek_mut`
Resolves#78302. Also adds some documentation on `std::iter::Iterator::peekable()` regarding the new method.
The feature was added in #77491 in Nov' 20, which is recently, but the feature seems reasonably small. Never did a stabilization-pr, excuse my ignorance if there is a protocol I'm not aware of.
Improve links in inline code in `core::pin`.
## Context
So I recently opened #80720. That PR uses HTML-based `<code>foo</code>` syntax in place of `` `foo` `` for some inline code. It looks like usage of `<code>` tags in doc comments is without precedent in the standard library, but the HTML-based syntax has an important advantage:
You can write something like
```
<code>[Box]<[Option]\<T>></code>
```
which becomes: <code>[Box]<[Option]\<T>></code>, whereas with ordinary backtick syntax, you cannot create links for a substring of an inline code block.
## Problem
I recalled (from my own experience) that a way to partially work around this limitation is to do something like
```
[`Box`]`<`[`Option`]`<T>>`
```
which looks like this: [`Box`]`<`[`Option`]`<T>>` _(admitted, it looks even worse on GitHub than in `rustdoc`’s CSS)_.
[Box]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/boxed/struct.Box.html "Box"
[`Box`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/boxed/struct.Box.html "Box"
[Option]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html "Option"
[`Option`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html "Option"
[Pin]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/pin/struct.Pin.html "Pin"
[&mut]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.reference.html "mutable reference"
So I searched the standard library and found that e.g. the [std::pin](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/pin/index.html) module documentation uses this hack/workaround quite a bit, with types like <code>[Pin]<[Box]\<T>></code> or <code>[Pin]<[&mut] T>></code>. Although the way they look like in this sentence is what I would like them to look like, not what they currently look.
### Status Quo
Here’s a screenshot of what it currently looks like:
With a few HTML-style code blocks, we can fix all the spacing issues in the above screenshot that are due usage of this hack/workaround of putting multiple code blocks right next to each other being used.
### after d3915c555e:
There’s still a problem of inconsistency. Especially in a sentence such as
> A [`Pin<P>`][Pin] where `P: Deref` should be considered as a "`P`-style pointer" to _[...]_
looks weird with the variable `P` having different colors (and `Deref` has a different color from before where it was a link, too). Or compare the difference of <code>[Pin]<[Box]\<T>></code> vs [`Box<T>`][Box] where one time the variable is part of the link and the other time it isn’t.
_Note: Color differences show even **more strongly** when the ayu theme is used, while they are a bit less prominent in the light theme than they are in the dark theme, which is the one used for these screenshots._
This is why I’ve added the next commit
### after ceaeb249a3
pulling all the type parameters out of their links, and also the last commit with clearly visible changes
### after 87ac118ba3
where more links are added, removing e.g. the inconsistency with `Deref`’s color in e.g. `P: Deref` that I already mentioned above.
## Discussion
I am aware that this PR may very well be overkill. If for now only the first commit (plus the fix for the `Drop` link in e65385fbfa, the link titles 684edf7a70 as far as they apply, and a few of the line-break changes) are wanted, I can reduce this PR to just those changes. I personally find the rendered result with all these changes very nice though. On the other hand, all these `<code>` tags are not very nice in the source code, I’ll admit.
Perhaps alternative solutions could be preferred, such as `rustdoc` support for merging subsequent inline code blocks so that all the cases that currently use workarounds rendered as [`Box`]`<`[`Option`]`<T>>` automatically become <code>[Box]<[Option]\<T>></code> without any need for further changes. Even in this case, having a properly formatted, better looking example in the standard library docs could help motivate such a change to `rustdoc` by prodiving an example of the expected results and also the already existing alternative (i.e. using `<code>`). On the other hand, `` [`Box`]`<`[`Option`]`<T>>` `` isn’t particularly nice-looking source code either. I’m not even sure if I wouldn’t actually find the version `<code>[Box]<[Option]\<T>></code>` cleaner to read.

Stabilize cmp_min_max_by
I would like to propose cmp::{min_by, min_by_key, max_by, max_by_key}
for stabilization.
These are relatively simple and seemingly uncontroversial functions and
have been unchanged in unstable for a while now.

Add strong_count mutation methods to Rc
The corresponding methods were stabilized on `Arc` in #79285 (tracking: #71983). This patch implements and stabilizes identical methods on the `Rc` types as well.
Use `#[inline(always)]` on trivial UnsafeCell methods
UnsafeCell is the standard building block for shared mutable data
structures. UnsafeCell should add zero overhead compared to using raw
pointers directly.
Some reports suggest that debug builds, or even builds at opt-level 1,
may not always be inlining its methods. Mark the methods as
`#[inline(always)]`, since once inlined the methods should result in no
actual code other than field accesses.
Bump bootstrap to 1.52 beta
This includes the standard bump, but also a workaround for new cargo behavior around clearing out the doc directory when the rustdoc version changes.
core: disable `ptr::swap_nonoverlapping_one`'s block optimization on SPIR-V.
SPIR-V primarily supports what it calls the "Logical addressing model" (and AFAIK for graphical shaders it's the only option), and what that implies is that there is no "memory" to uniformly address at some byte/word level, and that you can't really talk about values having a "raw representation" in terms of sequences of bytes. Therefore, the "block"-wise swapping optimization employed by `ptr::swap_nonoverlapping_one` (where a "block" is 32 bytes, currently), is fundamentally incompatible with SPIR-V "memory".
As such, [Rust-GPU](https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu/)'s `rustc_codegen_spirv` backend cannot currently allow the use of `ptr::swap_nonoverlapping_one` - but that comes at a great price, since it's the building block of `mem::{swap,replace}`, and those in turn are used by e.g. `Option::take` and `Range`'s `Iterator` implementation (the latter blocking the use of `for i in 0..n` loops).
There's 4 options I can see in terms of supporting `ptr::swap_nonoverlapping_one` in `rustc_codegen_spirv`:
* legalize the block-wise swap loop back into swapping whole values, for SPIR-V
* this is made borderline impossible by the fact that the size of the state "on the stack" is a block, and has to be expanded back to the appropriate size of the value being swapped, so in practice this would have to effectively pattern-match on the exact shape of the block-wise swapping algorithm, as a roundabout way of "patching `core::ptr` on the fly"
* (**this PR**) disable the block-wise swap optimization altogether when `#[cfg(target_arch = "spirv")`
* I've tested it and it does in fact allow compiling `for i in 0..n` loops, which was my primary motivation
* main downside IMO is the fact that `core` now acknowledges an out-of-tree backend
* as a counterpoint, any attempt to compile Rust to SPIR-V would run into this problem, one way or another
* only enable the block-wise swap optimization on targets where it's been empirically proven to be an improvement
* would avoid any surprises in terms of potentially-broken/inefficient codegen, in general
* however, it may be universally applicable (thanks to caches), even if the optimal block size could differ
* move low-level swapping into an intrinsic, where the backend can choose any optimization approach it wants
* this also has an impact on MIR optimizations (cc ``@rust-lang/wg-mir-opt)`` - which currently cannot hope to make sense of e.g. `Option::take` despite it being effectively `_0 = *_1;` `*_1 = None;` `return;`
* long-term this is my preferred approach, and I can start working on it if that's desired, but I wanted to confirm that this swapping optimization is the final blocker for [Rust-GPU](https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu/) supporting e.g. range `for` loops

BTree: move blocks around in node.rs
Without changing any names or implementation, reorder some members:
- Move down the ones defined long ago on the demised `struct Root`, to below the definition of their current host `struct NodeRef`.
- Move up some defined on `struct NodeRef` that are interspersed with those defined on `struct Handle`.
- Move up the `correct_…` methods squeezed between the two flavours of `push`.
- Move the unchecked static downcasts (`cast_to_…`) after the upcasts (`forget_`) and the (weirdly named) dynamic downcasts (`force`).

BTree: no longer search arrays twice to check Ord
A possible addition to / partial replacement of #83147: no longer linearly search the upper bound of a range in the initial portion of the keys we already know are below the lower bound.
- Should be faster: fewer key comparisons at the cost of some instructions dealing with offsets
- Makes code a little more complicated.
- No longer detects ill-defined `Ord` implementations, but that wasn't a publicised feature, and was quite incomplete, and was only done in the `range` and `range_mut` methods.
