make liballoc internal test suite mostly pass in Miri
I discovered, to my surprise, that liballoc has two test suites: `liballoc/tests`, and a bunch of stuff embedded directly within liballoc. The latter was not covered by [miri-test-libstd](https://github.com/RalfJung/miri-test-libstd) yet. This disables in Miri the tests that Miri cannot support or runs too slowly.
Allow Strings to be created from borrowed Strings. This is mostly
to make things like passing &String to an `impl Into<String>`
parameter frictionless.
This updates the `Extend` implementations to use `for_each` for many
collections: `BinaryHeap`, `BTreeMap`, `BTreeSet`, `LinkedList`, `Path`,
`TokenStream`, `VecDeque`, and `Wtf8Buf`.
Folding with `for_each` enables better performance than a `for`-loop for
some iterators, especially if they can just forward to internal
iterators, like `Chain` and `FlatMap` do.
Implement specialized nth_back() for Box and Windows.
Hi there, this is my first pull request to rust :-)
I started implementing some specializations for DoubleEndedIterator::nth_back() and these are the first two. The problem has been discussed in #54054 and nth_back() is tracked in #56995.
I'm stuck with the next implementation so I though I do a PR for the ones I'm confident with to get some feedback.
Move alloc::prelude::* to alloc::prelude::v1, make alloc a subset of std
This was one of the unresolved questions of https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2480. As the RFC says this is maybe not useful in the sense that we are unlikely to ever have a second version, but making the crate a true subset makes one less issue to think about if we stabilize it and later want to merge standard library crates and have Cargo feature flags to enable or disable parts of the `std` crate.
See also discussion in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/58175.
Also rename the feature gate and point to a dedicated tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/58935

In bluss/indexmap#88, we found that there was no easy way to implement
`Debug` for our `IterMut` and `Drain` iterators. Those are built on
`slice::IterMut` and `vec::Drain`, which implement `Debug` themselves,
but have no other way to access their data. With a new `as_slice()`
method, we can read the data and customize its presentation.
