Make `PointerLike` opt-in instead of built-in
The `PointerLike` trait currently is a built-in trait that computes the layout of the type. This is a bit problematic, because types implement this trait automatically. Since this can be broken due to semver-compatible changes to a type's layout, this is undesirable. Also, calling `layout_of` in the trait system also causes cycles.
This PR makes the trait implemented via regular impls, and adds additional validation on top to make sure that those impls are valid. This could eventually be `derive()`d for custom smart pointers, and we can trust *that* as a semver promise rather than risking library authors accidentally breaking it.
On the other hand, we may never expose `PointerLike`, but at least now the implementation doesn't invoke `layout_of` which could cause ICEs or cause cycles.
Right now for a `PointerLike` impl to be valid, it must be an ADT that is `repr(transparent)` and the non-1zst field needs to implement `PointerLike`. There are also some primitive impls for `&T`/ `&mut T`/`*const T`/`*mut T`/`Box<T>`.
Mark `get_mut` and `set_position` in `std::io::Cursor` as const.
Relevant tracking issue: #130801
The methods `get_mut` and `set_position` can trivially be marked as const due to #57349 being stabilised.
Use attributes for `dangling_pointers_from_temporaries` lint
Checking for dangling pointers by function name isn't ideal, and leaves out certain pointer-returning methods that don't follow the `as_ptr` naming convention. Using an attribute for this lint cleans things up and allows more thorough coverage of other methods, such as `UnsafeCell::get()`.
Add vec_deque::Iter::as_slices and friends
Add the following methods, that work similarly to VecDeque::as_slices:
- alloc::collections::vec_deque::Iter::as_slices
- alloc::collections::vec_deque::IterMut::into_slices
- alloc::collections::vec_deque::IterMut::as_slices
- alloc::collections::vec_deque::IterMut::as_mut_slices
Obtaining slices from a VecDeque iterator was not previously possible.

Improve `{BTreeMap,HashMap}::get_key_value` docs.
They are unusual methods. The docs don't really describe the cases when they might be useful (as opposed to just `get`), and the examples don't demonstrate the interesting cases at all.

Rwlock downgrade
Tracking Issue: #128203
This PR adds a `downgrade` method for `RwLock` / `RwLockWriteGuard` on all currently supported platforms.
Outstanding questions:
- [x] ~~Does the `futex.rs` change affect performance at all? It doesn't seem like it will but we can't be certain until we bench it...~~
- [x] ~~Should the SOLID platform implementation [be ported over](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/128219#discussion_r1693470090) to the `queue.rs` implementation to allow it to support downgrades?~~

mark is_val_statically_known intrinsic as stably const-callable
The intrinsic doesn't actually "do" anything in terms of language semantics, and we are already using it in stable const fn. So let's just properly mark it as stably const-callable to avoid needing `rustc_allow_const_fn_unstable` (and thus reducing noise and keeping the remaining `rustc_allow_const_fn_unstable` as a more clear signal).
Cc `@rust-lang/lang` usually you have to approve exposing intrinsics in const, but this intrinsic is basically just a compiler implementation detail. So FCP doesn't seem necessary.
Cc `@rust-lang/wg-const-eval`
This commit fixes a memory ordering bug in the futex implementation
(`Relaxed` -> `Release` on `downgrade`).
This commit also removes a badly written test that deadlocked and
replaces it with a more reasonable test based on an already-tested
`downgrade` test from the parking-lot crate.
This commit adds the `downgrade` method onto the inner `RwLock` queue
implementation.
There are also a few other style patches included in this commit.

This commit only has documentation changes and a few things moved around
the file. The very few code changes are cosmetic: changes like turning a
`match` statement into an `if let` statement or reducing indentation for
long if statements.
This commit also adds several safety comments on top of `unsafe` blocks
that might not be immediately obvious to a first-time reader.
Code "changes" are in:
- `add_backlinks_and_find_tail`
- `lock_contended`
A majority of the changes are just expanding the comments from 80
columns to 100 columns.
