The `Iterator.nth()` documentation says "Note that all preceding elements will be consumed". I assumed from that that the preceding elements would be the *only* ones that were consumed, but in fact the returned element is consumed as well.
The way I read the documentation, I assumed that `nth(0)` would not discard anything (as there are 0 preceding elements), so I added a sentence clarifying that it does. I also rephrased it to avoid the stunted "i.e." phrasing.
branchless .filter(_).count()
I found that the branchless version is only slower if we have little to no branch misses, which usually isn't the case. I notice speedups between -5% (perfect prediction) and 60% (real world data).
This commit updates the version number to 1.17.0 as we're not on that version of
the nightly compiler, and at the same time this updates src/stage0.txt to
bootstrap from freshly minted beta compiler and beta Cargo.
Clarify Extend behaviour wrt existing keys
This seems to be consistent with all the Extend implementations I found, and isn't documented anywhere else afaik.
Forward more ExactSizeIterator methods and `is_empty` edits
- Forward ExactSizeIterator methods in more places, like `&mut I` and `Box<I>` iterator impls.
- Improve `VecDeque::is_empty` itself (see commit 4)
- All the collections iterators now have `len` or `is_empty` forwarded if doing so is a benefit. In the remaining cases, they already use a simple size hint (using something like a stored `usize` value), which is sufficient for the default implementation of len and is_empty.
Remove Self: Sized from Iterator::nth
It is an unnecessary restriction; nth neither needs self to be sized
nor needs to be exempted from the trait object.
It increases the utility of the nth method, because type specific
implementations are available through `&mut I` or through an iterator
trait object.
It is a backwards compatible change due to the special cases of the
`where Self: Sized` bound; it was already optional to include this bound
in `Iterator` implementations.

Fix two small issues in iterator docs
- `collect()` is a regular method, not an adaptor (does not return an Iterator). I just randomly picked `filter` as a third common adaptor to mention instead.
- Fix example in `Map`'s docs so that it uses the DoubleEndedIterator implementation
Forward ExactSizeIterator::len and is_empty for important iterator adaptors
Forward ExactSizeIterator::len and is_empty for important iterator adaptors
Because some iterators will provide improved version of len and/or is_empty,
adaptors should forward to those implementations if possible.
Peekable must remember if a None has been seen in the `.peek()` method.
It ensures that `.peek(); .peek();` or `.peek(); .next();` only advances the
underlying iterator at most once. This does not by itself make the iterator
fused.
Add impls for `&Wrapping`. Also `Sum`, `Product` impls for both `Wrapping` and `&Wrapping`.
There are two changes here (split into two commits):
- Ops for references to `&Wrapping` (`Add`, `Sub`, `Mul` etc.) similar to the way they are implemented for primitives.
- Impls for `iter::{Sum,Product}` for `Wrapping`.
As far as I know `impl` stability attributes don't really matter so I didn't bother breaking up the macro for two different kinds of stability. Happy to change if it does matter.
Add Iterator trait TrustedLen to enable better FromIterator / Extend
This trait attempts to improve FromIterator / Extend code by enabling it to trust the iterator to produce an exact number of elements, which means that reallocation needs to happen only once and is moved out of the loop.
`TrustedLen` differs from `ExactSizeIterator` in that it attempts to include _more_ iterators by allowing for the case that the iterator's len does not fit in `usize`. Consumers must check for this case (for example they could panic, since they can't allocate a collection of that size).
For example, chain can be TrustedLen and all numerical ranges can be TrustedLen. All they need to do is to report an exact size if it fits in `usize`, and `None` as the upper bound otherwise.
The trait describes its contract like this:
```
An iterator that reports an accurate length using size_hint.
The iterator reports a size hint where it is either exact
(lower bound is equal to upper bound), or the upper bound is `None`.
The upper bound must only be `None` if the actual iterator length is
larger than `usize::MAX`.
The iterator must produce exactly the number of elements it reported.
This trait must only be implemented when the contract is upheld.
Consumers of this trait must inspect `.size_hint()`’s upper bound.
```
Fixes#37232
Implement Iterator::fold for .chain(), .cloned(), .map() and the VecDeque iterators.
Chain can do something interesting here where it passes on the fold
into its inner iterators.
The lets the underlying iterator's custom fold() be used, and skips the
regular chain logic in next.
Also implement .fold() specifically for .map() and .cloned() so that any
inner fold improvements are available through map and cloned.
The same way, a VecDeque iterator fold can be turned into two slice folds.
These changes lend the power of the slice iterator's loop codegen to
VecDeque, and to chains of slice iterators, and so on.
It's an improvement for .sum() and .product(), and other uses of fold.
