Specialize `Iterator::eq{_by}` for `TrustedLen` iterators
I'm sure I got some stuff wrong here, but opening this to get feedback and make sure it's a viable idea at all.
### Motivation
I had a piece of code that open-coded `Iterator::eq`, something like:
```rust
if current.len() != other.len()
|| current.iter().zip(other.iter()).any(|(a, b)| a != b) { ... }
```
... where both `current` and `other` are slices of the same type.
Changing the code to use `current.iter().eq(other)` made it a lot slower, since it wasn't checking the length of the two slices beforehand anymore, which in this instance made a big difference in perf. So I thought I'd see if I can improve `Iterator::eq`.
### Questions
1. I can't specialize for `ExactSizeIterator`, I think it's a limitation of `min_specialization` but not sure exactly why. Is specializing for `TrustedLen` good enough?
2. Should I make a codegen test for this? If so, then how? (I manually checked the assembly to make sure it works as expected)
3. Where should I put `SpecIterCompare`?
4. Can I get a perf run for this, please? I think the compiler uses this in a few places, so it might have an affect.
This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Why Rust?
-
Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
