move the Pin API into its own module for centralized documentation
This implements the change proposed by @withoutboats in #49150, as suggested by @RalfJung in the review of #53104,
along with the documentation that was originally in it, that was deemed more appropriate in module-level documentation.

Change `Rc::inc_{weak,strong}` to better hint optimization to LLVM
As discussed in #13018, `Rc::inc_strong` and `Rc::inc_weak` are changed to allow compositions of `clone` and `drop` to be better optimized. Almost entirely as in [this comment](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/13018#issuecomment-408642184), except that `abort` on zero is added so that a `drop(t.clone())` does not produce a zero check followed by conditional deallocation.
This is different from #21418 in that it doesn't rely on `assume`, avoiding the prohibitive compilation slowdown.
[Before and after IR](https://gist.github.com/hermord/266e55451b7fe0bb8caa6e35d17c86e1).
Non-naive implementation of `VecDeque.append`
Replaces the old, simple implementation with a more manual (and **unsafe** 😱) one. I've added 1 more test and verified that it covers all 6 code paths in the function.
This new implementation was about 60% faster than the old naive one when I tried benchmarking it.
There are a few places where we mention the replacement character in the
docs, and it could be helpful for users to utilize the constant which is
available in the standard library, so let’s link to it!
Rename Executor trait to Spawn
Renames the `Executor` trait to `Spawn` and the method on `Context` to `spawner`.
Note: Best only merge this after we've the alpha 3 announcement post ready.
