Make `<[T]>::split_at_unchecked` and `<[T]>::split_at_mut_unchecked` public
The methods were originally added in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/75936 (30dc32b10e), but for some reason as private. Nevertheless, the methods have documentation and even a [tracking issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/76014).
It's very weird to have a tracking issue for private methods and these methods may be useful outside of the standard library. As such, this PR makes the methods public.
Use bitand when checking for signed integer division overflow
For `self == Self::MIN && rhs == -1`, LLVM does not realize that this is the same check made by `self / rhs`, so the code generated may have some unnecessary duplication. For `(self == Self::MIN) & (rhs == -1)`, LLVM realizes it is the same check.
Optimize unnecessary check in Vec::retain
The function `vec::Vec::retain` only have two stages:
1. Nothing was deleted.
2. Some elements were deleted.
Here is an unnecessary check `if g.deleted_cnt > 0` in the loop, and it's difficult for compiler to optimize it. I split the loop into two stages manully and keep the code clean using const generics.
I write a special but common bench case for this optimization. I call retain on vec but keep all elements.
Before and after this optimization:
```
test vec::bench_retain_whole_100000 ... bench: 84,803 ns/iter (+/- 17,314)
```
```
test vec::bench_retain_whole_100000 ... bench: 42,638 ns/iter (+/- 16,910)
```
The result is expected, there are two `if`s before the optimization and one `if` after.
On MinGW toolchains the various features (such as function sections)
necessary to eliminate dead function references are disabled due to
various bugs. This means that the windows sockets library will most
likely remain linked to any mingw toolchain built program that also
utilizes libstd.
That said, I made an attempt to also enable `function-sections` and
`--gc-sections` during my experiments, but the symbol references
remained, sadly.
For `self == Self::MIN && rhs == -1`, LLVM does not realize that this is the
same check made by `self / rhs`, so the code generated may have some unnecessary
duplication. For `(self == Self::MIN) & (rhs == -1)`, LLVM realizes it is the
same check.
Constify ?-operator for Result and Option
Try to make `?`-operator usable in `const fn` with `Result` and `Option`, see #74935 . Note that the try-operator itself was constified in #87237.

Remove ignore-tidy-undocumented-unsafe from core::slice::sort
Write down the missing safety arguments to be able to remove `ignore-tidy-undocumented-unsafe` from `core::slice::sort`.

Restructure std::rt
These changes should reduce binary size slightly while at the same slightly improving performance of startup, thread spawning and `std:🧵:current()`. I haven't verified if the compiler is able to optimize some of these cases already, but at least for some others the compiler is unable to do these optimizations as they slightly change behavior in cases where program startup would crash anyway by omitting a backtrace and panic location.
I can remove 6f6bb16 if preferred.
The reference automatically coerces to a pointer. Writing an explicit
cast here is slightly misleading because that's most commonly used when
a pointer needs to be converted from one pointer type to another, e.g.
`*const c_void` to `*const sigaction` or vice versa.
