Fix invalid slice access in String::retain
As noted in #78499, the previous fix was technically still unsound because it accessed elements of a slice outside its bounds (even though they were still inside the same allocation). This PR addresses that concern by switching to a dropguard approach.
Implement String::remove_matches
Closes#50206.
I lifted the function help from `@frewsxcv's` original PR (#50015), hope they don't mind.
I'm also wondering whether it would be useful for `remove_matches` to collect up the removed substrings into a `Vec` and return them, right now they're just overwritten by the copy and lost.
add diagnostic items for OsString/PathBuf/Owned as well as to_vec on slice
This is adding diagnostic items to be used by rust-lang/rust-clippy#6730, but my understanding is the clippy-side change does need to be done over there since I am adding a new clippy feature.
Add diagnostic items to the following types:
OsString (os_string_type)
PathBuf (path_buf_type)
Owned (to_owned_trait)
As well as the to_vec method on slice/[T]
Move `slice::check_range` to `RangeBounds`
Since this method doesn't take a slice anymore (#76662), it makes more sense to define it on `RangeBounds`.
Questions:
- Should the new method be `assert_len` or `assert_length`?
Add as_str() to string::Drain.
Vec's Drain recently [had its `.as_slice()` stabilized](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/72584), but String's Drain was still missing the analogous `.as_str()`. This adds that.
Also improves the Debug implementation, which now shows the remaining data instead of just `"Drain { .. }"`.
Since trait implementations cannot be unstable, we should only add them
when the as_str feature gets stabilized. Until then, only `.as_str()` is
available (behind a feature gate).
