Add associated constant `BITS` to all integer types
Recently I've regularly come across this snippet (in a few different crates, including `core` and `std`):
```rust
std::mem::size_of<usize>() * 8
```
I think it's time for a `usize::BITS`.
do not inline black_box when building for Miri
We cannot do the assembly trick in Miri, but let's at least make sure MIR inlining does not circumvent the black_box.
Also use black_box instead of local optimization barriers in a few const tests.
Add array_windows fn
This mimicks the functionality added by array_chunks, and implements a const-generic form of
`windows`. It makes egregious use of `unsafe`, but by necessity because the array must be
re-interpreted as a slice of arrays, and unlike array_chunks this cannot be done by casting the
original array once, since each time the index is advanced it needs to move one element, not
`N`.
I'm planning on adding more tests, but this should be good enough as a premise for the functionality.
Notably: should there be more functions overwritten for the iterator implementation/in general?
~~I've marked the issue as #74985 as there is no corresponding exact issue for `array_windows`, but it's based of off `array_chunks`.~~
Edit: See Issue #75027 created by @lcnr for tracking issue
~~Do not merge until I add more tests, please.~~
r? @lcnr
Updated issue to #75027
Update to rm oob access

Add even more off by 1 errors
And also write `next` and `next_back` in terms of `nth` and `nth_back`.
Run fmt
Fix forgetting to change fn name in test
add nth_back test & document unsafe

Documented occurrences of unsafe, noting what invariants are maintained
Fix liballoc test suite for Miri
Mostly, fix the regression introduced by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/75207 that caused slices (i.e., references) to be created to invalid memory or memory that has aliasing pointers that we want to keep valid. @dylni this changes the type of `check_range` to only require the length, not the full reference to the slice, which indeed is all the information this function requires.
Also reduce the size of a test introduced in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/70793 to make it not take 3 minutes in Miri.
This makes https://github.com/RalfJung/miri-test-libstd work again.
Make all methods of `Duration` unstably const
Make the following methods of `Duration` unstable const under `duration_const_2`:
- `from_secs_f64`
- `from_secs_f32`
- `mul_f64`
- `mul_f32`
- `div_f64`
- `div_f32`
This results in all methods of `Duration` being (unstable) const.
Moved the tests to `library` as part of #76268.
Possible because of #72449, which made the relevant `f32` and `f64` methods const.
Tracking issue: #72440

Make some Ordering methods const
Resubmission of [PR#75463](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/75463) as per [PR#76172](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/76172).
Constify the following methods of `core::cmp::Ordering`:
- `reverse`
- `then`
Insta-stabilizes these methods as const under the `const_ordering` feature, as their implementation is a trivial match and the recent stabilization of #49146 (Allow `if` and `match` in constants).
Note: the `const_ordering` feature has never actually been used as these methods have not been `#[rustc_const_unstable]`.
Tracking issue: #76113
Note when a a move/borrow error is caused by a deref coercion
Fixes#73268
When a deref coercion occurs, we may end up with a move error if the
base value has been partially moved out of. However, we do not indicate
anywhere that a deref coercion is occuring, resulting in an error
message with a confusing span.
This PR adds an explicit note to move errors when a deref coercion is
involved. We mention the name of the type that the deref-coercion
resolved to, as well as the `Deref::Target` associated type being used.
Split `core::slice` to smaller mods
Unfortunately the `#[lang = "slice"]` is too big (3003 lines), I cannot split it further.
Note for reviewer:
* I split to multiple commits for easier reviewing, but I could git squash them all to one if requested.
* Recommend pulling this change locally and using advanced git diff viewer or this command:
```
git show --reverse --color-moved=dimmed-zebra master..
```
---
I split core/slice/mod.rs to these modules:
* `ascii`: For operations on `[u8]`.
* `cmp`: For comparison operations on `[T]`, like PartialEq and SliceContains impl.
* `index`: For indexing operations like Index/IndexMut and SliceIndex.
* `iter`: For Iterator definitions and implementation on `[T]`.
- `macros`: For iterator! and forward_iterator! macros.
* `raw`: For free function to create `&[T]` or `&mut [T]` from pointer + length or a reference.
The heapsort wrapper in mod.rs is removed in favor of reexport from `sort::heapsort`.
