Stabilize `type_name_of_val`
Make the following API stable:
```rust
// in core::any
pub fn type_name_of_val<T: ?Sized>(_val: &T) -> &'static str
```
This is a convenience method to get the type name of a value, as opposed to `type_name` that takes a type as a generic.
Const stability is not added because this relies on `type_name` which is also not const. That has a blocking issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/97156.
Wording was also changed to direct most of the details to `type_name` so we don't have as much duplicated documentation.
Fixes tracking issue #66359.
There were two main concerns in the tracking issue:
1. Naming: `type_name_of` and `type_name_of_val` seem like the only mentioned options. Differences in opinion here come from `std::mem::{size_of, align_of, size_of_val, align_of_val}`. This PR leaves the name as `type_name_of_val`, but I can change if desired since it is pretty verbose.
2. What this displays for `&dyn`: I don't think that having `type_name_of_val` function resolve those is worth the headache it would be, see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/66359#issuecomment-1718480774 for some workarounds. I also amended the docs wording to leave it open-ended, in case we have means to change that behavior in the future.

Fixes#66359
* remove `impl Provider for Error`
* rename `Demand` to `Request`
* update docstrings to focus on the conceptual API provided by `Request`
* move `core::any::{request_ref, request_value}` functions into `core::error`
* move `core::any::tag`, `core::any::Request`, an `core::any::TaggedOption` into `core::error`
* replace `provide_any` feature name w/ `error_generic_member_access`
* move `core::error::request_{ref,value} tests into core::tests::error module
* update unit and doc tests
- Switch TypeId to 128 bits
- Hack around the fact that tracing-subscriber dislikes how TypeId is hashed
- Remove lowering of type_id128 from rustc_codegen_llvm
- Remove unnecessary `type_id128` intrinsic (just change return type of `type_id`)
- Only hash the lower 64 bits of the TypeId
- Reword comment
While the `provide_*` methods already short-circuit when a value has
been provided, there are times where an expensive computation is
needed to determine if the `provide_*` method can even be called.
This updates the standard library's documentation to use the new syntax. The
documentation is worthwhile to update as it should be more idiomatic
(particularly for features like this, which are nice for users to get acquainted
with). The general codebase is likely more hassle than benefit to update: it'll
hurt git blame, and generally updates can be done by folks updating the code if
(and when) that makes things more readable with the new format.
A few places in the compiler and library code are updated (mostly just due to
already having been done when this commit was first authored).
