Add `implement_via_object` to `rustc_deny_explicit_impl` to control object candidate assembly
Some built-in traits are special, since they are used to prove facts about the program that are important for later phases of compilation such as codegen and CTFE. For example, the `Unsize` trait is used to assert to the compiler that we are able to unsize a type into another type. It doesn't have any methods because it doesn't actually *instruct* the compiler how to do this unsizing, but this is later used (alongside an exhaustive match of combinations of unsizeable types) during codegen to generate unsize coercion code.
Due to this, these built-in traits are incompatible with the type erasure provided by object types. For example, the existence of `dyn Unsize<T>` does not mean that the compiler is able to unsize `Box<dyn Unsize<T>>` into `Box<T>`, since `Unsize` is a *witness* to the fact that a type can be unsized, and it doesn't actually encode that unsizing operation in its vtable as mentioned above.
The old trait solver gets around this fact by having complex control flow that never considers object bounds for certain built-in traits:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/2f896da247e0ee8f0bef7cd7c54cfbea255b9f68/compiler/rustc_trait_selection/src/traits/select/candidate_assembly.rs#L61-L132
However, candidate assembly in the new solver is much more lovely, and I'd hate to add this list of opt-out cases into the new solver. Instead of maintaining this complex and hard-coded control flow, instead we can make this a property of the trait via a built-in attribute. We already have such a build attribute that's applied to every single trait that we care about: `rustc_deny_explicit_impl`. This PR adds `implement_via_object` as a meta-item to that attribute that allows us to opt a trait out of object-bound candidate assembly as well.

Uplift `clippy::cast_ref_to_mut` lint
This PR aims at uplifting the `clippy::cast_ref_to_mut` lint into rustc.
## `cast_ref_to_mut`
(deny-by-default)
The `cast_ref_to_mut` lint checks for casts of `&T` to `&mut T` without using interior mutability.
### Example
```rust,compile_fail
fn x(r: &i32) {
unsafe {
*(r as *const i32 as *mut i32) += 1;
}
}
```
### Explanation
Casting `&T` to `&mut T` without interior mutability is undefined behavior, as it's a violation of Rust reference aliasing requirements.

For Clippy:
changelog: Moves: Uplifted `clippy::cast_ref_to_mut` into rustc
Currently, slice iterators over ZSTs store `end = start.wrapping_byte_add(len)`.
That's slightly convenient for `is_empty`, but kinda annoying for pretty much everything else -- see bugs like 42789, for example.
This PR instead changes it to just `end = ptr::invalid(len)` instead.
That's easier to think about (IMHO, at least) as well as easier to represent.

Split per https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/110392
I can squash once people are happy w/ the changes. It's really uncommon for large sets of changes to be perfectly acceptable w/o at least some changes.
I probably won't have time to respond until tomorrow or the next day
Add a builtin `FnPtr` trait that is implemented for all function pointers
r? `@ghost`
Rebased version of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/99531 (plus adjustments mentioned in the PR).
If perf is happy with this version, I would like to land it, even if the diagnostics fix in 9df8e1befb5031a5bf9d8dfe25170620642d3c59 only works for `FnPtr` specifically, and does not generally improve blanket impls.
Stabilize `nonnull_slice_from_raw_parts`
FCP is done: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/71941#issuecomment-1100910416
Note that this doesn't const-stabilize `NonNull::slice_from_raw_parts` as `slice_from_raw_parts_mut` isn't const-stabilized yet. Given #67456 and #57349, it's not likely available soon, meanwhile, stabilizing only the feature makes some sense, I think.
Closes#71941
I was looking into `array::IntoIter` optimization, and noticed that it wasn't annotating the loads with `noundef` for simple things like `array::IntoIter<i32, N>`.
Turned out to be a more general problem as `MaybeUninit::assume_init_read` isn't marking the load as initialized (<https://rust.godbolt.org/z/Mxd8TPTnv>), which is unfortunate since that's basically its reason to exist.
This PR lowers `ptr::read(p)` to `copy *p` in MIR, which fortuitiously also improves the IR we give to LLVM for things like `mem::replace`.
Fix the docs for pointer method with_metadata_of
The name of the argument to `{*const T, *mut T}::with_metadata_of` was changed from `val` to `meta` recently, but the docs weren't updated to match.

Lift `T: Sized` bounds from some `strict_provenance` pointer methods
This PR removes requirement for `T` (pointee type) to be `Sized` to call `pointer::{addr, expose_addr, with_addr, map_addr}`. These functions don't use `T`'s size, so there is no reason for them to require this. Updated public API:

add ptr::from_{ref,mut}
We have methods to avoid almost all `as` casts around raw pointer handling, except for the initial cast from reference to raw pointer. These new methods close that gap.
(I also moved `null_mut` next to `null` to keep the file consistently organized.)
