Add `io::Error::other`
This PR adds a small utility constructor, `io::Error::other`, a shorthand for `io::Error::new(io::ErrorKind::Other, err)`, something I find myself writing often.
For some concrete stats, a quick search on [grep.app](https://grep.app) shows that more than half of the uses of `io::Error::new` use `ErrorKind::Other`:
```
Error::new\((?:std::)?(?:io::)?ErrorKind:: => 3,898 results
Error::new\((?:std::)?(?:io::)?ErrorKind::Other => 2,186 results
```
link to pref_align_of tracking issue
If we are not going to remove this intrinsic (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/90877), I think we should at least have a place to centralize discussion around it, so here we go. Intrinsics don't have their own separate features and usually we instead use the public method for tracking it, but this one does not have such a method... so the tracking issue is just a regular link. (And then we sue it for the const part as well.)

Constify `bool::then{,_some}`
Note on `~const Drop`: it has no effect when called from runtime functions, when called from const contexts, the trait system ensures that the type can be dropped in const contexts.
Removed `in_band_lifetimes` from `library\proc_macro`
Issue [#91867](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/91867)
This is my first try, I followed the instructions given. Fixed all the errors that were thrown while compiling.
Compiled with stage 0,1, and 2 all of them compiled successfully.
Add `[T]::as_simd(_mut)`
SIMD-style optimizations are the most common use for `[T]::align_to(_mut)`, but that's `unsafe`. So these are *safe* wrappers around it, now that we have the `Simd` type available, to make it easier to use.
```rust
impl [T] {
pub fn as_simd<const LANES: usize>(&self) -> (&[T], &[Simd<T, LANES>], &[T]);
pub fn as_simd_mut<const LANES: usize>(&mut self) -> (&mut [T], &mut [Simd<T, LANES>], &mut [T]);
}
```
They're `cfg`'d out for miri because the `simd` module as a whole is unavailable there.
Readd track_caller to Result::from_residual
This is a followup on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87401 in and an attempt to move the issue towards resolution.
As part of the overhaul of the Try trait we removed the ability for errors to grab location information during propagation via `?` with the builtin `std::result::Result`. The previously linked issue has a fair bit of discussion into the reasons for and against the usage of `#[track_caller]` on the `FromResidual` impl on `Result` that I will do my best to summarize.

### For
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87401#issuecomment-915053533: Difficulties with using non `std::result::Result` like types
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87401#issuecomment-978355102: Inconsistency with functionality provided for recoverable (Result) and non-recoverable errors (panic), where panic provides a location and Result does not, pushing some users towards using panic
### Against
- https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/84277#issuecomment-885322833: concern that this will bloat callers that never use this data
---
Personally, I want to quantify the performance / bloat impact of re-adding this attribute, and fully evaluate the pros and cons before deciding if I need to switch `eyre` to have a custom `Result` type, which would also mean I need `try_trait_v2` to be stabilized, cc `@scottmcm.` If the performance impact is minor enough in the general case I think I would prefer that the default `Result` type has the ability to track location information for consistency with `panic` error reporting, and leave it to applications that need particularly high performance to handle the micro optimizations of introducing their own efficient custom Result type or matching manually.
Alternatively, I wonder if the performance penalty on code that doesn't use the location information on `FromResidual` could be mitigated via new optimizations.
Stabilize `iter::zip`
Hello all!
As the tracking issue (#83574) for `iter::zip` completed the final commenting period without any concerns being raised, I hereby submit this stabilization PR on the issue.
As the pull request that introduced the feature (#82917) states, the `iter::zip` function is a shorter way to zip two iterators. As it's generally a quality-of-life/ergonomic improvement, it has been integrated into the codebase without any trouble, and has been
used in many places across the rust compiler and standard library since March without any issues.
For more details, I would refer to `@cuviper's` original PR, or the [function's documentation](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/iter/fn.zip.html).
Tweak errors coming from `for`-loop, `?` and `.await` desugaring
* Suggest removal of `.await` on non-`Future` expression
* Keep track of obligations introduced by desugaring
* Remove span pointing at method for obligation errors coming from desugaring
* Point at called local sync `fn` and suggest making it `async`

Stabilize asm! and global_asm!
Tracking issue: #72016
It's been almost 2 years since the original [RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2850) was posted and we're finally ready to stabilize this feature!
The main changes in this PR are:
- Removing `asm!` and `global_asm!` from the prelude as per the decision in #87228.
- Stabilizing the `asm` and `global_asm` features.
- Removing the unstable book pages for `asm` and `global_asm`. The contents are moved to the [reference](https://github.com/rust-lang/reference/pull/1105) and [rust by example](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-by-example/pull/1483).
- All links to these pages have been removed to satisfy the link checker. In a later PR these will be replaced with links to the reference or rust by example.
- Removing the automatic suggestion for using `llvm_asm!` instead of `asm!` if you're still using the old syntax, since it doesn't work anymore with `asm!` no longer being in the prelude. This only affects code that predates the old LLVM-style `asm!` being renamed to `llvm_asm!`.
- Updating `stdarch` and `compiler-builtins`.
- Updating all the tests.

Make split_inclusive() on an empty slice yield an empty output
`[].split_inclusive()` currently yields a single, empty slice. That's
different from `"".split_inslusive()`, which yields no output at
all. I think that makes the slice version harder to use.
The case where I ran into this bug was when writing code for
generating a diff between two slices of bytes. I wanted to prefix
removed lines with "-" and a added lines with "+". Due to
`split_inclusive()`'s current behavior, that means that my code prints
just a "-" or "+" for empty files. I suspect most existing callers
have similar "bugs" (which would be fixed by this patch).
Closes#89716.
add BinaryHeap::try_reserve and BinaryHeap::try_reserve_exact
`try_reserve` of many collections were stablized in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/87993 in 1.57.0. Add `try_reserve` for the rest collections such as `BinaryHeap` should be not controversial.
Use spare_capacity_mut instead of invalid unchecked indexing when joining str
This is a fix for https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/91574
I think in general I'd prefer to see this code implemented with raw pointers or `MaybeUninit::write_slice`, but there's existing code in here based on copying from slice to slice, so converting everything from `&[T]` to `&[MaybeUninit<T>]` is less disruptive.
BTree: improve public descriptions and comments
BTreeSet has always used the term "value" next to and meaning the same thing as "elements" (in the mathematical sense but also used for key-value pairs in BTreeMap), while in the BTreeMap sense these "values" are known as "keys" and definitely not "values". Today I had enough of that.

Stabilize `ControlFlow::{is_break, is_continue}`
The type itself was stabilized in 1.55, but using it is not ergonomic without these helper functions. Stabilize them.
