The most important rule of lexicographical comparison is that two arrays
of equal length will be compared until the first difference occured.
The examples provided only focuses on the second rule that says that the
shorter array will be filled with some T2 that is less than every T.
Which is only possible because of the first rule.
Fix potential UB in align_offset doc examples
Currently it takes a pointer only to the first element in the array, this changes the code to take a pointer to the whole array.
miri can't catch this right now because it later calls `x.len()` which re-tags the pointer for the whole array.

Unconfuse Unpin docs a bit
* Don't say that Unpin is used to prevent moves, because it is used
to *allow* moves
* Be more precise about kindedness of things, it is
`Pin<Pointer<Data>>`, rather than just `Pin<Pointer>`.
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

Report an ambiguity if both modules and primitives are in scope for intra-doc links
Closes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/75381
- Add a new `prim@` disambiguator, since both modules and primitives are in the same namespace
- Refactor `report_ambiguity` into a closure
Additionally, I noticed that rustdoc would previously allow `[struct@char]` if `char` resolved to a primitive (not if it had a DefId). I fixed that and added a test case.
I also need to update libstd to use `prim@char` instead of `type@char`. If possible I would also like to refactor `ambiguity_error` to use `Disambiguator` instead of its own hand-rolled match - that ran into issues with `prim@` (I updated one and not the other) and it would be better for them to be in sync.
Use allow(unused_imports) instead of cfg(doc) for imports used only for intra-doc links
This prevents links from breaking when items are re-exported in a
different crate and the original isn't being documented.

Fix typo in documentation of i32 wrapping_abs()
Hi!
I was reading through the std library docs and noticed that this section flowed a bit oddly; comparing it against https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.i32.html#method.wrapping_div and https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.i32.html#method.wrapping_neg , I noticed that those two pieces of documentation used a semicolon here.
This is my first time submitting a PR to this repo. Am I doing this right? Are tiny typo-fix PRs like this worth submitting, or are they not a good use of time?
Thank you!
stabilize ptr_offset_from
This stabilizes ptr::offset_from, and closes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/41079. It also removes the deprecated `wrapping_offset_from`. This function was deprecated 19 days ago and was never stable; given an FCP of 10 days and some waiting time until FCP starts, that leaves at least a month between deprecation and removal which I think is fine for a nightly-only API.
Regarding the open questions in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/41079:
* Should offset_from abort instead of panic on ZSTs? -- As far as I know, there is no precedent for such aborts. We could, however, declare this UB. Given that the size is always known statically and the check thus rather cheap, UB seems excessive.
* Should there be more methods like this with different restrictions (to allow nuw/nsw, perhaps) or that return usize (like how isize-taking offset is more conveniently done with usize-taking add these days)? -- No reason to block stabilization on that, we can always add such methods later.
Also nominating the lang team because this exposes an intrinsic.
The stabilized method is best described [by its doc-comment](56d4b2d69a/src/libcore/ptr/const_ptr.rs (L227)). The documentation forgot to mention the requirement that both pointers must "have the same provenance", aka "be derived from pointers to the same allocation", which I am adding in this PR. This is a precondition that [Miri already implements](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=nightly&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=a3b9d0a07a01321f5202cd99e9613480) and that, should LLVM ever obtain a `psub` operation to subtract pointers, will likely be required for that operation (following the semantics in [this paper](https://people.mpi-sws.org/~jung/twinsem/twinsem.pdf)).
