Replace str's transmute() calls with pointer casts
After the following conversation in #rust-lang:
```
[14:43:50] <Ixrec> TIL the implementation of from_utf_unchecked is literally just "mem::transmute(x)"
[14:43:59] <Ixrec> no wonder people keep saying transmute is overpowered
[15:15:30] <eddyb> Ixrec: it should be a pointer cast lol
[15:15:46] <eddyb> unless it doesn't let you
[16:50:34] <Ixrec> https://play.rust-lang.org/?gist=d1e6b629ad9ec1baf64ce261c63845e6&version=stable seems like it does let me
[16:52:35] <eddyb> Ixrec: yeah that's the preferred impl
[16:52:46] <eddyb> Ixrec: it just wasn't in 1.0
[16:52:50] <eddyb> IIRC
[16:53:00] <eddyb> (something something fat pointers)
```
Since I already wrote half of the preferred impls in the playground, might as well make an actual PR.
