Rollup merge of #80681 - ChrisJefferson:logic-error-doc, r=m-ou-se

Clarify what the effects of a 'logic error' are

This clarifies what a 'logic error' is (which is a term used to describe what happens if you put things in a hash table or btree and then use something like a refcell to break the internal ordering). This tries to be as vague as possible, as we don't really want to promise what happens, except "bad things, but not UB". This was discussed in #80657
