Added io forwarding methods to the stdio structs
Added methods to forward the `io::Read` and `io::Write` methods of the myriad wrapper structs in `stdio.rs` to their underlying readers / writers. This is especially important for the structs on the outside of a locking boundary, to ensure that the lock isn't being dropped and re-acquired in a loop.
Change wording on read_vectored docs
Closes#70154
I'm happy to work with others to make the wording on this more clear. I think what I have is an improvement but may not be the final wording.
When working with an arbitrary reader or writer, code that uses vectored
operations may end up being slower than code that copies into a single
buffer when the underlying reader or writer doesn't actually support
vectored operations. These new methods allow you to ask the reader or
witer up front if vectored operations are efficiently supported.
Currently, you have to use some heuristics to guess by e.g. checking if
the read or write only accessed the first buffer. Hyper is one concrete
example of a library that has to do this dynamically:
0eaf304644/src/proto/h1/io.rs (L582-L594)
use is_empty() instead of len comparison (clippy::len_zero)
use if let instead of while let loop that never loops (clippy::never_loop)
remove redundant returns (clippy::needless_return)
remove redundant closures (clippy::redundant_closure)
use if let instead of match and wildcard pattern (clippy::single_match)
don't repeat field names redundantly (clippy::redundant_field_names)
Fix abort-on-eprintln during process shutdown
This commit fixes an issue where if `eprintln!` is used in a TLS
destructor it can accidentally cause the process to abort. TLS
destructors are executed after `main` returns on the main thread, and at
this point we've also deinitialized global `Lazy` values like those
which store the `Stderr` and `Stdout` internals. This means that despite
handling TLS not being accessible in `eprintln!`, we will fail due to
not being able to call `stderr()`. This means that we'll double-panic
quickly because panicking also attempt to write to stderr.
The fix here is to reimplement the global stderr handle to avoid the
need for destruction. This avoids the need for `Lazy` as well as the
hidden panic inside of the `stderr` function.
Overall this should improve the robustness of printing errors and/or
panics in weird situations, since the `stderr` accessor should be
infallible in more situations.

std: Don't abort process when printing panics in tests
This commit fixes an issue when using `set_print` and friends, notably
used by libtest, to avoid aborting the process if printing panics. This
previously panicked due to borrowing a mutable `RefCell` twice, and this
is worked around by borrowing these cells for less time, instead
taking out and removing contents temporarily.
Closes#69558

Remove spotlight
I had a few comments saying that this feature was at best misunderstood or not even used so I decided to organize a poll about on [twitter](https://twitter.com/imperioworld_/status/1232769353503956994). After 87 votes, the result is very clear: it's not useful. Considering the amount of code we have just to run it, I think it's definitely worth it to remove it.
