Rollup merge of #43455 - QuietMisdreavus:extend-spec-docs, r=steveklabnik

add a note to Vec's Extend<&T> impl about its slice specialization

From the regular documentation view, it's not at all apparent that [this specialization](5669c9988f/src/liballoc/vec.rs (L1879-L1891)) exists for `slice::Iter`. This adds a documentation blurb to the Extend impl itself to note that this optimization exists.
