miri: improve errors for type validity assertion failures

Miri has pretty nice errors for type validity violations, printing which field in the type the problem occurs at and so on.

However, we don't see these errors when using e.g. `mem::zeroed` as that uses `assert_zero_valid` to bail out before Miri can detect the UB.

Similar to what we did with `@saethlin's` UB checks, I think we should disable such language UB checks in Miri so that we can get better error messages. If we go for this we should probably say this in the intrinsic docs as well so that people don't think they can rely on these intrinsics catching anything.

Furthermore, I slightly changed `MaybeUninit::assume_init` so that the `.value` field does not show up in error messages any more.

`@rust-lang/miri` what do you think?

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).
