library/compiler: add `PointeeSized` bounds

As core uses an extern type (`ptr::VTable`), the default `?Sized` to
`MetaSized` migration isn't sufficient, and some code that previously
accepted `VTable` needs relaxed to continue to accept extern types.

Similarly, the compiler uses many extern types in `rustc_codegen_llvm`
and in the `rustc_middle::ty::List` implementation (`OpaqueListContents`)
some bounds must be relaxed to continue to accept these types.

Unfortunately, due to the current inability to relax `Deref::Target`,
some of the bounds in the standard library are forced to be stricter than
they ideally would be.
