rollup merge of #23876: alexcrichton/stabilize-any

This commit stabilizes the following APIs:

* `TypeId::of` - now that it has an `Any` bound it's ready to be stable.
* `Box<Any>::downcast` - now that an inherent impl on `Box<Any>` as well as
  `Box<Any+Send>` is allowed the `BoxAny` trait is removed in favor of these
  inherent methods.

This is a breaking change due to the removal of the `BoxAny` trait, but
consumers can simply remove imports to fix crates.
