Add Iterator::advance_by and DoubleEndedIterator::advance_back_by
This PR adds the iterator method
```rust
fn advance_by(&mut self, n: usize) -> Result<(), usize>
```
that advances the iterator by `n` elements, returning `Ok(())` if this succeeds or `Err(len)` if the length of the iterator was less than `n`.
Currently `Iterator::nth` is the method to override for efficiently advancing an iterator by multiple elements at once. `advance_by` is superior for this purpose because
- it's simpler to implement: instead of advancing the iterator and producing the next element you only need to advance the iterator
- it composes better: iterators like `Chain` and `FlatMap` can implement `advance_by` in terms of `advance_by` on their inner iterators, but they cannot implement `nth` in terms of `nth` on their inner iterators (see #60395)
- the default implementation of `nth` can trivially be implemented in terms of `advance_by` and `next`, which this PR also does
This PR also adds `DoubleEndedIterator::advance_back_by` for all the same reasons.
I'll make a tracking issue if it's decided this is worth merging. Also let me know if anything can be improved, this went through several iterations so there might very well still be room for improvement (especially in the doc comments). I've written overrides of these methods for most iterators that already override `nth`/`nth_back`, but those still need tests so I'll add them in a later PR.

Make some methods of `Pin` unstable const
Make the following methods unstable const under the `const_pin` feature:
- `new`
- `new_unchecked`
- `into_inner`
- `into_inner_unchecked`
- `get_ref`
- `into_ref`
- `get_mut`
- `get_unchecked_mut`
Of these, `into_inner` and `into_inner_unchecked` require the unstable `const_precise_live_drops`.
Also adds tests for these methods in a const context.
Tracking issue: #76654

Add array_windows fn
This mimicks the functionality added by array_chunks, and implements a const-generic form of
`windows`. It makes egregious use of `unsafe`, but by necessity because the array must be
re-interpreted as a slice of arrays, and unlike array_chunks this cannot be done by casting the
original array once, since each time the index is advanced it needs to move one element, not
`N`.
I'm planning on adding more tests, but this should be good enough as a premise for the functionality.
Notably: should there be more functions overwritten for the iterator implementation/in general?
~~I've marked the issue as #74985 as there is no corresponding exact issue for `array_windows`, but it's based of off `array_chunks`.~~
Edit: See Issue #75027 created by @lcnr for tracking issue
~~Do not merge until I add more tests, please.~~
r? @lcnr
Updated issue to #75027
Update to rm oob access
And hopefully fix docs as well
Fixed naming conflict in test
Fix test which used 1-indexing
Nth starts from 0, woops
Fix a bunch of off by 1 errors
See https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=nightly&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=757b311987e3fae1ca47122969acda5a
Add even more off by 1 errors
And also write `next` and `next_back` in terms of `nth` and `nth_back`.
Run fmt
Fix forgetting to change fn name in test
add nth_back test & document unsafe
Remove as_ref().unwrap()
Documented occurrences of unsafe, noting what invariants are maintained
Make the following methods unstable const under the `const_pin` feature:
- `new`
- `new_unchecked`
- `into_inner`
- `into_inner_unchecked`
- `get_ref`
- `into_ref`
Also adds tests for these methods in a const context.
Tracking issue: #76654
Make the following methods of `Duration` unstable const under `duration_const_2`:
- `from_secs_f64`
- `from_secs_f32`
- `mul_f64`
- `mul_f32`
- `div_f64`
- `div_f32`
This results in all methods of `Duration` being (unstable) const.
Also adds tests for these methods in a const context, moved the test to `library` as part of #76268.
Possible because of #72449, which made the relevant `f32` and `f64` methods const.
Tracking issue: #72440
I would like to propose these two simple methods for stabilization:
- Knowing that a range is exhaused isn't otherwise trivial
- Clippy would like to suggest them, but had to do extra work to disable that path <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/3807> because they're unstable
- These work on `PartialOrd`, consistently with now-stable `contains`, and are thus more general than iterator-based approaches that need `Step`
- They've been unchanged for some time, and have picked up uses in the compiler
- Stabilizing them doesn't block any future iterator-based is_empty plans, as the inherent ones are preferred in name resolution
Add basic test
And also run fmt which is where the other changes are from
Fix mut issues
These only appear when running tests, so resolved by adding mut
Swap order of forget
Add pub and rm guard impl
Add explicit type to guard
Add safety note
Change guard type from T to S
It should never have been T, as it guards over [MaybeUninit<S>; N]
Also add feature to test
Stabilize `Result::as_deref` and `as_deref_mut`
FCP completed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/50264#issuecomment-645681400.
This PR stabilizes two new APIs for `std::result::Result`:
```rust
fn as_deref(&self) -> Result<&T::Target, &E> where T: Deref;
fn as_deref_mut(&mut self) -> Result<&mut T::Target, &mut E> where T: DerefMut;
```
This PR also removes two rarely used unstable APIs from `Result`:
```rust
fn as_deref_err(&self) -> Result<&T, &E::Target> where E: Deref;
fn as_deref_mut_err(&mut self) -> Result<&mut T, &mut E::Target> where E: DerefMut;
```
Closes#50264
