Add #[must_use] to expensive computations
The unifying theme for this commit is weak, admittedly. I put together a list of "expensive" functions when I originally proposed this whole effort, but nobody's cared about that criterion. Still, it's a decent way to bite off a not-too-big chunk of work.
Given the grab bag nature of this commit, the messages I used vary quite a bit. I'm open to wording changes.
For some reason clippy flagged four `BTreeSet` methods but didn't say boo about equivalent ones on `HashSet`. I stared at them for a while but I can't figure out the difference so I added the `HashSet` ones in.
```rust
// Flagged by clippy.
alloc::collections::btree_set::BTreeSet<T> fn difference<'a>(&'a self, other: &'a BTreeSet<T>) -> Difference<'a, T>;
alloc::collections::btree_set::BTreeSet<T> fn symmetric_difference<'a>(&'a self, other: &'a BTreeSet<T>) -> SymmetricDifference<'a, T>
alloc::collections::btree_set::BTreeSet<T> fn intersection<'a>(&'a self, other: &'a BTreeSet<T>) -> Intersection<'a, T>;
alloc::collections::btree_set::BTreeSet<T> fn union<'a>(&'a self, other: &'a BTreeSet<T>) -> Union<'a, T>;
// Ignored by clippy, but not by me.
std::collections::HashSet<T, S> fn difference<'a>(&'a self, other: &'a HashSet<T, S>) -> Difference<'a, T, S>;
std::collections::HashSet<T, S> fn symmetric_difference<'a>(&'a self, other: &'a HashSet<T, S>) -> SymmetricDifference<'a, T, S>
std::collections::HashSet<T, S> fn intersection<'a>(&'a self, other: &'a HashSet<T, S>) -> Intersection<'a, T, S>;
std::collections::HashSet<T, S> fn union<'a>(&'a self, other: &'a HashSet<T, S>) -> Union<'a, T, S>;

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.

Add #[must_use] to from_value conversions
I added two methods to the list myself. Clippy did not flag them because they take `mut` args, but neither modifies their argument.
```rust
core::str const unsafe fn from_utf8_unchecked_mut(v: &mut [u8]) -> &mut str;
std::ffi::CString unsafe fn from_raw(ptr: *mut c_char) -> CString;
```
I put a custom note on `from_raw`:
```rust
#[must_use = "call `drop(from_raw(ptr))` if you intend to drop the `CString`"]
pub unsafe fn from_raw(ptr: *mut c_char) -> CString {
```

These methods could be misconstrued as modifying their arguments instead
of returning new values.
Where possible I made the note recommend a method that does mutate in
place.
Fix spacing of links in inline code.
Similar to #80733, but the focus is different. This PR eliminates all occurrences of pieced-together inline code blocks like [`Box`]`<`[`Option`]`<T>>` and replaces them with good-looking ones (using HTML-syntax), like <code>[Box]<[Option]\<T>></code>. As far as I can tell, I should’ve found all of these in the standard library (regex search with `` r"`\]`|`\[`" ``) \[except for in `core::convert` where I’ve noticed other things in the docs that I want to fix in a separate PR]. In particular, unlike #80733, I’ve added almost no new instance of inline code that’s broken up into multiple links (or some link and some link-free part). I also added tooltips (the stuff in quotes for the markdown link listings) in places that caught my eye, but that’s by no means systematic, just opportunistic.
[Box]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/boxed/struct.Box.html "Box"
[`Box`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/boxed/struct.Box.html "Box"
[Option]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html "Option"
[`Option`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html "Option"
Context: I got annoyed by repeatedly running into new misformatted inline code while reading the standard library docs. I know that once issue #83997 (and/or related ones) are resolved, these changes become somewhat obsolete, but I fail to notice much progress on that end right now.

Move `std::memchr` to `sys_common`
`std::memchr` is a thin abstraction over the different `memchr` implementations in `sys`, along with documentation and tests. The module is only used internally by `std`, nothing is exported externally. Code like this is exactly what the `sys_common` module is for, so this PR moves it there.
Add internal io::Error::new_const to avoid allocations.
This makes it possible to have a io::Error containing a message with zero allocations, and uses that everywhere to avoid the *three* allocations involved in `io::Error::new(kind, "message")`.
The function signature isn't perfect, because it needs a reference to the `&str`. So for now, this is just a `pub(crate)` function. Later, we'll be able to use `fn new_const<MSG: &'static str>(kind: ErrorKind)` to make that a bit better. (Then we'll also be able to use some ZST trickery if that would result in more efficient code.)
