Remove internal and unstable MaybeUninit::UNINIT.
Looks like it is no longer necessary, as `uninit_array()` can be used instead in the few cases where it was needed.
(I wanted to just add `#[doc(hidden)]` to remove clutter from the documentation, but looks like it can just be removed entirely.)
BTreeMap: move up reference to map's root from NodeRef
Since the introduction of `NodeRef` years ago, it also contained a mutable reference to the owner of the root node of the tree (somewhat disguised as *const). Its intent is to be used only when the rest of the `NodeRef` is no longer needed. Moving this to where it's actually used, thought me 2 things:
- Some sort of "postponed mutable reference" is required in most places that it is/was used, and that's exactly where we also need to store a reference to the length (number of elements) of the tree, for the same reason. The length reference can be a normal reference, because the tree code does not care about tree length (just length per node).
- It's downright obfuscation in `from_sorted_iter` (transplanted to #75329)
- It's one of the reasons for the scary notice on `reborrow_mut`, the other one being addressed in #73971.
This does repeat the raw pointer code in a few places, but it could be bundled up with the length reference.

BTreeMap: introduce marker::ValMut and reserve Mut for unique access
The mutable BTreeMap iterators (apart from `DrainFilter`) are double-ended, meaning they have to rely on a front and a back handle that each represent a reference into the tree. Reserve a type category `marker::ValMut` for them, so that we guarantee that they cannot reach operations on handles with borrow type `marker::Mut`and that these operations can assume unique access to the tree.
Including #75195, benchmarks report no genuine change:
```
benchcmp old new --threshold 5
name old ns/iter new ns/iter diff ns/iter diff % speedup
btree::map::iter_100 3,333 3,023 -310 -9.30% x 1.10
btree::map::range_unbounded_vs_iter 36,624 31,569 -5,055 -13.80% x 1.16

Revert the fundamental changes in #74762 and #75257
Before possibly going over to #75487. Also contains some added and fixed comments.

Migrate unit tests of btree collections to their native breeding ground
There's one BTreeSet test case that I couldn't easily convince to come along, maybe because it truly is an integration test. But leaving it in place would mean git wouldn't see the move so I also moved it to a new file.

BTreeMap: purge innocent use of into_kv_mut
Replace the use of `into_kv_mut` into more precise calls. This makes more sense if you know that the single remaining use of `into_kv_mut` is in fact evil and can be trialled in court (#75200) and sent to a correction facility (#73971).
No real performance difference reported (but functions that might benefit a tiny constant bit like `BTreeMap::get_mut` aren't benchmarked):
```
benchcmp old new --threshold 5
name old ns/iter new ns/iter diff ns/iter diff % speedup
btree::map::clone_fat_100 63,073 59,256 -3,817 -6.05% x 1.06
btree::map::iter_100 3,514 3,235 -279 -7.94% x 1.09
```
Stop BTreeMap casts from reborrowing
Down in btree/node.rs, the interface and use of `cast_unchecked` look a bit shady. It's really just there for inverting `forget_type` which does not borrow. By borrowing we can't write the same `cast_unchecked` in the same way at the Handle level.
No change in undefined behaviour or performance.
Implement `into_keys` and `into_values` for associative maps
This PR implements `into_keys` and `into_values` for HashMap and BTreeMap types. They are implemented as unstable, under `map_into_keys_values` feature.
Fixes#55214.
