Visit the free functions of std::vec and reimplement or remove some. Most prominently, remove `each_permutation` and replace with two iterators, ElementSwaps and Permutations.
Replace unzip, unzip_slice with an updated `unzip` that works with an iterator argument.
Replace each_permutation with a Permutation iterator. The new permutation iterator is more efficient since it uses an algorithm that produces permutations in an order where each is only one element swap apart, including swapping back to the original state with one swap at the end.
Unify the seldomly used functions `build`, `build_sized`, `build_sized_opt` into just one function `build`.
Remove `equal_sizes`
These functions have very few users since they are mostly replaced by
iterator-based constructions.
Convert a few remaining users in-tree, and reduce the number of
functions by basically renaming build_sized_opt to build, and removing
the other two. This for both the vec and the at_vec versions.
Also redefine all of the standard logging macros to use more rust code instead
of custom LLVM translation code. This makes them a bit easier to understand, but
also more flexibile for future types of logging.
Additionally, this commit removes the LogType language item in preparation for
changing how logging is performed.
This is actually almost a problem, because those were my poster-child
macros for "here's how to implement a capturing macro." Following this
change, there will be no macros that use capturing; this will probably
make life unpleasant for the first person that wants to implement a
capturing macro. I should probably create a dummy_capturing macro,
just to show how it works.

Rationale: having a function which fails means that the location of
failure which is output is that of the unreachable() function, rather
than the caller.
This is part of #8991 but is not all of it; current usage of
``std::util::unreachable()`` must remain so for the moment, until a new
snapshot is made; then I will remove that function entirely in favour of
using this macro.
