Fixes:
* Add missing closing back tick.
* Remove spurious double back ticks.
* Add missing newline to render bullet point correctly.
* Fix grammar "there are methods calledrequest_ref and request_value are available" -> "there are methods calledrequest_ref and request_value".
* Change "methods" to "functions", which seems more appropriate for free functions.
document that the null pointer has the 0 address
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/116895
Will need t-lang FCP, but I think this is fairly uncontroversial -- there's probably already tons of code out there that relies on this.
Override `Waker::clone_from` to avoid cloning `Waker`s unnecessarily
This would be very useful for futures — I think it’s pretty much always what they want to do instead of `*waker = cx.waker().clone()`.

Avoid unnecessary comparison in partition_equal
The branchy Hoare partition `partition_equal` as part of `slice::sort_unstable` has a bug that makes it perform a comparison of the last element twice.
Measuring inputs with a Zipfian distribution with characterizing exponent s == 1.0, yields a ~0.05% reduction in the total number of comparisons performed.

Add diagnostic items for a few of core's builtin macros
Specifically, `env`, `option_env`, and `include`. There are a number of reasons why people might want to look at these in lints (For example, to ensure that things behave consistently, detect things that might make builds less reproducible, etc).
Concretely, in PL/Rust (well, `plrustc`) we have lints that forbid these (which I'd like to [add to clippy as restriction lints](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/257328-clippy/topic/Landing.20a.20flotilla.20of.20lints.3F) eventually), and `dylint` also has [lints that look for `env!`/`option_env!`](109a07e9f2/examples/general/env_cargo_path/src/lib.rs) (although perhaps not `include`), which would benefit from this.
My experience is that it's pretty annoying to (robustly) check uses of builtin macros without these IME, although that's perhaps just my own fault (e.g. I could be doing it wrong).
At `@Nilstrieb's` suggestion, I've added a comment that explains why these are here, even though they are not used in the compiler. This is mostly to discourage removal, although it's not a big deal if it happens (I'm certainly not suggesting the presence of these be in any way stable).

In theory this is a library PR (in that it's in library/core), but I'm going to roll compiler because the existence of this or not is much more likely something they care about rather than libs. Hopefully nobody objects to this.

Remove obsolete support for linking unwinder on Android
Linking libgcc is no longer supported (see #103673), so remove the related link attributes and the check in unwind's build.rs. The check was the last remaining significant piece of logic in build.rs, so remove build.rs as well.
Stabilize `const_maybe_uninit_zeroed` and `const_mem_zeroed`
Make `MaybeUninit::zeroed` and `mem::zeroed` const stable. Newly stable API:
```rust
// core::mem
pub const unsafe fn zeroed<T>() ->;
impl<T> MaybeUninit<T> {
pub const fn zeroed() -> MaybeUninit<T>;
}
```
This relies on features based around `const_mut_refs`. Per `@RalfJung,` this should be OK since we do not leak any `&mut` to the user.
For this to be possible, intrinsics `assert_zero_valid` and `assert_mem_uninitialized_valid` were made const stable.

Deref docs: expand and remove "smart pointer" qualifier
**Ready for review**
~~This is an unpolished draft to be sanity-checked~~
Fixes#91004
~~Comments on substance and content of this are welcome. This is deliberately unpolished until ready to review so please try to stay focused on the big-picture.~~
~~Once this has been sanity checked, I will similarly update `DerefMut` and polish for review.~~
Make `core::mem::zeroed` const stable. Newly stable API:
// core::mem
pub const unsafe fn zeroed<T>() -> T;
This is stabilized with `const_maybe_uninit_zeroed` since it is a simple
wrapper.
In order to make this possible, intrinsics `assert_zero_valid` was made
const stable under `const_assert_type2`.
`assert_mem_uninitialized_valid` was also made const stable since it is
under the same gate.
Make `MaybeUninit::zeroed` const stable. Newly stable API:
// core::mem
impl<T> MaybeUninit<T> {
pub const fn zeroed() -> MaybeUninit<T>;
}
Use of `const_mut_refs` should be acceptable since we do not leak the
mutability.

Copy faillibility warning to DerefMut
The initial probe-for-empty-source by stack_buffer_copy only detected EOF
if the source was empty but not when it was merely small which lead to
additional calls to read() after Ok(0) had already been returned
in the stack copy routine
It now keeps track of initialized bytes to avoid reinitialization.
It also keeps track of read sizes to avoid initializing more bytes
than the reader needs. This is important when passing a huge vector to a
Read that only has a few bytes to offer and doesn't implement read_buf().
Remove support for compiler plugins.
They've been deprecated for four years.
This commit includes the following changes.
- It eliminates the `rustc_plugin_impl` crate.
- It changes the language used for lints in `compiler/rustc_driver_impl/src/lib.rs` and `compiler/rustc_lint/src/context.rs`. External lints are now called "loaded" lints, rather than "plugins" to avoid confusion with the old plugins. This only has a tiny effect on the output of `-W help`.
- E0457 and E0498 are no longer used.
- E0463 is narrowed, now only relating to unfound crates, not plugins.
- The `plugin` feature was moved from "active" to "removed".
- It removes the entire plugins chapter from the unstable book.
- It removes quite a few tests, mostly all of those in `tests/ui-fulldeps/plugin/`.
Closes#29597.

Guarantee representation of None in NPO
This allows users to soundly transmute zeroes into `Option` types subject to the null pointer optimization (NPO). It unblocks https://github.com/google/zerocopy/issues/293.
Add track_caller to transmute_copy
Currently if `size_of::<Src>() < size_of::<Dst>()` you will see the following error:
```rust
thread 'test' panicked at /rustc/cc66ad468955717ab92600c770da8c1601a4ff33/library/core/src/mem/mod.rs:1056:5:
cannot transmute_copy if Dst is larger than Src
```
This fixes it so it will show the invocation location
Linking libgcc is no longer supported (see #103673), so remove the
related link attributes and the check in unwind's build.rs. The check
was the last remaining significant piece of logic in build.rs, so
remove build.rs as well.
Clarify `Unsize` documentation
The documentation erroneously says that:
```rust
/// - Types implementing a trait `Trait` also implement `Unsize<dyn Trait>`.
/// - Structs `Foo<..., T, ...>` implement `Unsize<Foo<..., U, ...>>` if all of these conditions
/// are met:
/// - `T: Unsize<U>`.
/// - Only the last field of `Foo` has a type involving `T`.
/// - `Bar<T>: Unsize<Bar<U>>`, where `Bar<T>` stands for the actual type of that last field.
```
Specifically, `T: Unsize<U>` is not required to hold -- only the final field must implement `FinalField<T>: Unsize<FinalField<U>>`. This can be demonstrated by the test I added.

Second commit fleshes out the documentation a lot more.
Fix switch_stdout_to on Windows7
The `switch_stdout_to` test was broken on Windows7, as deleting the temporary test folder would fail since the `switch-stdout-output` file we redirected the stdout to is never closed, and it's impossible on Win7 to delete an opened file.
To fix this issue, we make `switch_stdout_to` return the previous handle. Using this, we add a new `switch_stdout_to` call at the end of the test to return the stdio handles to their original state, and recover the handle to the file we opened. This handle is automatically closed at the end of the function, which should allow the temporary test folder to be deleted properly.
Support enum variants in offset_of!
This MR implements support for navigating through enum variants in `offset_of!`, placing the enum variant name in the second argument to `offset_of!`. The RFC placed it in the first argument, but I think it interacts better with nested field access in the second, as you can then write things like
```rust
offset_of!(Type, field.Variant.field)
```
Alternatively, a syntactic distinction could be made between variants and fields (e.g. `field::Variant.field`) but I'm not convinced this would be helpful.
