`MaybeUninit` inherent slice methods part 2 These were moved out of #129259 since they require additional libs-api approval. Tracking issue: #117428. New API surface: ```rust impl<T> [MaybeUninit<T>] { // replacing fill; renamed to avoid conflict pub fn write_filled(&mut self, value: T) -> &mut [T] where T: Clone; // replacing fill_with; renamed to avoid conflict pub fn write_with<F>(&mut self, value: F) -> &mut [T] where F: FnMut() -> T; // renamed to remove "fill" terminology, since this is closer to the write_*_of_slice methods pub fn write_iter<I>(&mut self, iter: I) -> (&mut [T], &mut Self) where I: Iterator<Item = T>; } ``` Relevant motivation for these methods; see #129259 for earlier methods' motiviations. * I chose `write_filled` since `filled` is being used as an object here, whereas it's being used as an action in `fill`. * I chose `write_with` instead of `write_filled_with` since it's shorter and still matches well. * I chose `write_iter` because it feels completely different from the fill methods, and still has the intent clear. In all of the methods, it felt appropriate to ensure that they contained `write` to clarify that they are effectively just special ways of doing `MaybeUninit::write` for each element of a slice.
