This was an accidental regression from #56092, but for `no_std` targets
being built and distributed we want to be sure to activate the
compiler-builtins `mem` feature which demangles important memory-related
intrinsics.
VecDeque: fix for stacked borrows
`VecDeque` violates a version of stacked borrows where creating a shared reference is not enough to make a location *mutably accessible* from raw pointers (and I think that is the version we want). There are two problems:
* Creating a `NonNull<T>` from `&mut T` goes through `&T` (inferred for a `_`), then `*const T`, then `NonNull<T>`. That means in this stricter version of Stacked Borrows, we cannot actually write to such a `NonNull` because it was created from a shared reference! This PR fixes that by going from `&mut T` to `*mut T` to `*const T`.
* `VecDeque::drain` creates the `Drain` struct by *first* creating a `NonNull` from `self` (which is an `&mut VecDeque`), and *then* calling `self.buffer_as_mut_slice()`. The latter reborrows `self`, asserting that `self` is currently the unique pointer to access this `VecDeque`, and hence invalidating the `NonNull` that was created earlier. This PR fixes that by instead using `self.buffer_as_slice()`, which only performs read accesses and creates only shared references, meaning the raw pointer (`NonNull`) remains valid.
It is possible that other methods on `VecDeque` do something similar, miri's test coverage of `VecDeque` is sparse to say the least.

Actually updating the version number is blocked on updating Cargo
Ever since we added a Cargo-based build system for the compiler the
standard library has always been a little special, it's never been able
to depend on crates.io crates for runtime dependencies. This has been a
result of various limitations, namely that Cargo doesn't understand that
crates from crates.io depend on libcore, so Cargo tries to build crates
before libcore is finished.
I had an idea this afternoon, however, which lifts the strategy
from #52919 to directly depend on crates.io crates from the standard
library. After all is said and done this removes a whopping three
submodules that we need to manage!
The basic idea here is that for any crate `std` depends on it adds an
*optional* dependency on an empty crate on crates.io, in this case named
`rustc-std-workspace-core`. This crate is overridden via `[patch]` in
this repository to point to a local crate we write, and *that* has a
`path` dependency on libcore.
Note that all `no_std` crates also depend on `compiler_builtins`, but if
we're not using submodules we can publish `compiler_builtins` to
crates.io and all crates can depend on it anyway! The basic strategy
then looks like:
* The standard library (or some transitive dep) decides to depend on a
crate `foo`.
* The standard library adds
```toml
[dependencies]
foo = { version = "0.1", features = ['rustc-dep-of-std'] }
```
* The crate `foo` has an optional dependency on `rustc-std-workspace-core`
* The crate `foo` has an optional dependency on `compiler_builtins`
* The crate `foo` has a feature `rustc-dep-of-std` which activates these
crates and any other necessary infrastructure in the crate.
A sample commit for `dlmalloc` [turns out to be quite simple][commit].
After that all `no_std` crates should largely build "as is" and still be
publishable on crates.io! Notably they should be able to continue to use
stable Rust if necessary, since the `rename-dependency` feature of Cargo
is soon stabilizing.
As a proof of concept, this commit removes the `dlmalloc`,
`libcompiler_builtins`, and `libc` submodules from this repository. Long
thorns in our side these are now gone for good and we can directly
depend on crates.io! It's hoped that in the long term we can bring in
other crates as necessary, but for now this is largely intended to
simply make it easier to manage these crates and remove submodules.
This should be a transparent non-breaking change for all users, but one
possible stickler is that this almost for sure breaks out-of-tree
`std`-building tools like `xargo` and `cargo-xbuild`. I think it should
be relatively easy to get them working, however, as all that's needed is
an entry in the `[patch]` section used to build the standard library.
Hopefully we can work with these tools to solve this problem!

slice: tweak concat & join
- use `sum` instead of `fold` (readability)
- adjust the capacity for `join` - the number of separators is `n - 1`, not `n`; proof:
```
fn main() {
let a = [[1, 2], [4, 5]];
let v = a.join(&3);
assert_ne!(v.len(), v.capacity()); // len is 5, capacity is 6
}
```
Replace usages of `..i + 1` ranges with `..=i`.
Before this change we were using old computer code techniques. After this change we use the new and improved computer code techniques.
Optimized string FromIterator + Extend impls
I noticed that there was a lost opportunity to reuse string buffers in `FromIterator<String>` and `FromIterator<Cow<str>>`; updated the implementations to use these. In practice this translates to at least one fewer allocation when using these APIs.
Additionally, rewrote `Extend` implementations to use `iter.for_each`, which (supposedly) helps the compiler optimize those loops (because iterator adapters are encouraged to provide optimized implementations of `fold` and `try_fold`.
Add Weak.ptr_eq
I hope the doc tests alone are good enough.
We also might want to discuss the dangling pointer case (from `Weak::new()`).
Updates #55981.
Assorted tweaks
- preallocate `VecDeque` in `Decodable::decode` (as it is done with other collections which can do it)
- add a FIXME to `String::from_utf16`

Doc total order requirement of sort(_unstable)_by
I took the definition of what a total order is from the Ord trait
docs. I specifically put "elements of the slice" because if you
have a slice of f64s, but know none are NaN, then sorting by
partial ord is total in this case. I'm not sure if I should give
such an example in the docs or not.
r? @GuillaumeGomez
Speed up String::from_utf16
Collecting into a `Result` is idiomatic, but not necessarily fast due to rustc not being able to preallocate for the resulting collection. This is fine in case of an error, but IMO we should optimize for the common case, i.e. a successful conversion.
This changes the behavior of `String::from_utf16` from collecting into a `Result` to pushing to a preallocated `String` in a loop.
According to [my simple benchmark](https://gist.github.com/ljedrz/953a3fb74058806519bd4d640d6f65ae) this change makes `String::from_utf16` around **twice** as fast.
global allocators: add a few comments
These comments answer some questions that came up when I tried to understand how the control flow works for the global allocator, `Global` and `System`.

string: Add documentation for `From` impls
Hi this is part of #51430. I'm a first time contributor, so I started with a small task adding a bit of documentation for From impls.
This commit deletes the `alloc_system` crate from the standard
distribution. This unstable crate is no longer needed in the modern
stable global allocator world, but rather its functionality is folded
directly into the standard library. The standard library was already the
only stable location to access this crate, and as a result this should
not affect any stable code.
