Add `#[must_use]` to some `into_raw*` functions.
cc #121287
r? ``@cuviper``
Adds `#[must_use = "losing the pointer will leak memory"]`[^1] to `Box::into_raw(_with_allocator)`, `Vec::into_raw_parts(_with_alloc)`, `String::into_raw_parts`[^2], and `rc::{Rc, Weak}::into_raw_with_allocator` (Rc's normal `into_raw` and all of `Arc`'s `into_raw*`s are already `must_use`).
Adds `#[must_use = "losing the raw <resource name may leak resources"]` to `IntoRawFd::into_raw_fd`, `IntoRawSocket::into_raw_socket`, and `IntoRawHandle::into_raw_handle`.
[^1]: "*will* leak memory" may be too-strong wording (since `Box`/`Vec`/`String`/`rc::Weak` might not have a backing allocation), but I left it as-is for simplicity and consistency.
[^2]: `String::into_raw_parts`'s `must_use` message is changed from the previous (possibly misleading) "`self` will be dropped if the result is not used".
Add missing try_new_uninit_slice_in and try_new_zeroed_slice_in
The methods for fallible slice allocation in a given allocator were missing from `Box`, which was an oversight according to https://github.com/rust-lang/wg-allocators/issues/130
This PR adds them as `try_new_uninit_slice_in` and `try_new_zeroed_slice_in`. I simply copy-pasted the implementations of `try_new_uninit_slice` and `try_new_zeroed_slice` and adusted doc comment, typings, and the allocator it uses internally.
Also adds missing punctuation to the doc comments of `try_new_uninit_slice` and `try_new_zeroed_slice`.
Related issue is https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/32838 (Allocator traits and std::heap) *I think*. Also relevant is https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/63291, but I did not add the corresponding `#[unstable]` proc macro, since `try_new_uninit_slice` and `try_new_zeroed_slice` are also not annotated with it.
Remove memory leaks in doctests in `core`, `alloc`, and `std`
cc `@RalfJung` https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/126067https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/3670
Should be no actual *documentation* changes[^1], all added/modified lines in the doctests are hidden with `#`,
This PR splits the existing memory leaks in doctests in `core`, `alloc`, and `std` into two general categories:
1. "Non-focused" memory leaks that are incidental to the thing being documented, and/or are easy to remove, i.e. they are only there because preventing the leak would make the doctest less clear and/or concise.
- These doctests simply have a comment like `# // Prevent leaks for Miri.` above the added line that removes the memory leak.
- [^2]Some of these would perhaps be better as part of the public documentation part of the doctest, to clarify that a memory leak can happen if it is not otherwise mentioned explicitly in the documentation (specifically the ones in `(A)Rc::increment_strong_count(_in)`).
2. "Focused" memory leaks that are intentional and documented, and/or are possibly fragile to remove.
- These doctests have a `# // FIXME` comment above the line that removes the memory leak, with a note that once `-Zmiri-disable-leak-check` can be applied at test granularity, these tests should be "un-unleakified" and have `-Zmiri-disable-leak-check` enabled.
- Some of these are possibly fragile (e.g. unleaking the result of `Vec::leak`) and thus should definitely not be made part of the documentation.
This should be all of the leaks currently in `core` and `alloc`. I only found one leak in `std`, and it was in the first category (excluding the modules `@RalfJung` mentioned in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/126067 , and reducing the number of iterations of [one test](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/library/std/src/sync/once_lock.rs#L49-L94) from 1000 to 10)

Apologies for the many attempts, my dev loop for this consists of editing on github, committing, and then waiting for the CI failure log to yell at me.

The rules for casting `*mut X<dyn A>` -> `*mut Y<dyn B>` are as follows:
- If `B` has a principal
- `A` must have exactly the same principal (including generics)
- Auto traits of `B` must be a subset of autotraits in `A`
Note that `X<_>` and `Y<_>` can be identity, or arbitrary structs with last field being the dyn type.
The lifetime of the trait object itself (`dyn ... + 'a`) is not checked.
This prevents a few soundness issues with `#![feature(arbitrary_self_types)]` and trait upcasting.
Namely, these checks make sure that vtable is always valid for the pointee.
Box<[T]> implements FromIterator<T> using Vec<T> + into_boxed_slice().
Add analogous FromIterator implementations for Box<str>
matching the current implementations for String.
Remove the Global allocator requirement for FromIterator<Box<str>> too.
Document overrides of `clone_from()` in core/std
As mentioned in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/96979#discussion_r1379502413
Specifically, when an override doesn't just forward to an inner type, document the behavior and that it's preferred over simply assigning a clone of source. Also, change instances where the second parameter is "other" to "source".
I reused some of the wording over and over for similar impls, but I'm not sure that the wording is actually *good*. Would appreciate feedback about that.
Also, now some of these seem to provide pretty specific guarantees about behavior (e.g. will reuse the exact same allocation iff the len is the same), but I was basing it off of the docs for [`Box::clone_from`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.75.0/std/boxed/struct.Box.html#method.clone_from-1) - I'm not sure if providing those strong guarantees is actually good or not.

Remove useless `'static` bounds on `Box` allocator
#79327 added `'static` bounds to the allocator parameter for various `Box` + `Pin` APIs to ensure soundness. But it was a bit overzealous, some of the bounds aren't actually needed.
`std::error::Error` -> Trait Implementations: lifetimes consistency improvement
This cleans up `std::error::Error` trait implementations lifetime inconsistency (`'static` -> `'a`)
**Reasoning:**
Trait implementations for `std::error::Error`, like:
`impl From<&str> for Box<dyn Error + 'static, Global>`
`impl<'a> From<&str> for Box<dyn Error + Sync + Send + 'a, Global>`
use different lifetime annotations misleadingly implying using different life annotations here is a conscious, nonaccidental decision.
