Inline CStr::from_ptr
Inlining this function is valuable, as it allows LLVM to apply `strlen`-specific optimizations without having to enable LTO.
For instance, the following function:
```rust
pub fn f(p: *const c_char) -> Option<u8> {
unsafe { CStr::from_ptr(p) }.to_bytes().get(0).copied()
}
```
Looks like this if `CStr::from_ptr` is allowed to be inlined.
```asm
before:
push rax
call qword ptr [rip + std::ffi::c_str::CStr::from_ptr@GOTPCREL]
mov rcx, rax
cmp rdx, 1
sete dl
test rax, rax
sete al
or al, dl
jne .LBB1_2
mov dl, byte ptr [rcx]
.LBB1_2:
xor al, 1
pop rcx
ret
after:
mov dl, byte ptr [rdi]
test dl, dl
setne al
ret
```
Note that optimization turned this from O(N) to O(1) in terms of performance, as LLVM knows that it doesn't really need to call `strlen` to determine whether a string is empty or not.
