remove const-support for align_offset and is_aligned As part of the recent discussion to stabilize `ptr.is_null()` in const context, the general vibe was that it's okay for a const function to panic when the same operation would work at runtime (that's just a case of "dynamically detecting that something is not supported as a const operation"), but it is *not* okay for a const function to just return a different result. Following that, `is_aligned` and `is_aligned_to` have their const status revoked in this PR, since they do return actively wrong results at const time. In the future we can consider having a new intrinsic or so that can check whether a pointer is "guaranteed to be aligned", but the current implementation based on `align_offset` does not have the behavior we want. In fact `align_offset` itself behaves quite strangely in const, and that support needs a bunch of special hacks. That doesn't seem worth it. Instead, the users that can fall back to a different implementation should just use const_eval_select directly, and everything else should not be made const-callable. So this PR does exactly that, and entirely removes const support for align_offset.

This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Why Rust?
-
Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrate with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
