weak-into-raw: as_raw -> as_ptr + dangling garbage

* Rename Weak::as_raw to Weak::as_ptr for consistency with some other
  types.
* The as_ptr for a dangling Weak pointer might return whatever garbage
  (and takes that advantage to avoid a conditional).
* Don't guarantee to be able to do `Weak::from_raw(weak.as_ptr())` (even
  though it'll still work fine).
