Add `Option::as_slice`(`_mut`)

This adds the following functions:

* `Option<T>::as_slice(&self) -> &[T]`
* `Option<T>::as_slice_mut(&mut self) -> &[T]`

The `as_slice` and `as_slice_mut` functions benefit from an
optimization that makes them completely branch-free.

Note that the optimization's soundness hinges on the fact that either
the niche optimization makes the offset of the `Some(_)` contents zero
or the mempory layout of `Option<T>` is equal to that of
`Option<MaybeUninit<T>>`.
