Rollup merge of #72584 - CAD97:stabilize-58957, r=dtolnay

Stabilize vec::Drain::as_slice

and add `AsRef<[T]> for Drain<'_, T>`.

Tracking issue: #58957. Does not stabilize `slice::IterMut::as_slice` yet. cc @cuviper
This PR proposes stabilizing just the `vec::Drain::as_slice` part of that tracking issue.

My ultimate goal here: being able to use `for<T, I: Iterator<Item=T> + AsRef<[T]>> I` to refer to `vec::IntoIter`, `vec::Drain`, and eventually `array::IntoIter`, as an approximation of the set of by-value iterators that can be "previewed" as by-ref iterators. (Actually expressing that as a trait requires GAT.)
