Auto merge of #42419 - ucarion:ucarion-explain-rc-arc-abbrev, r=frewsxcv
Explicate what "Rc" and "Arc" stand for. A person on the weekly "Easy Questions" Reddit thread [was mystified by what `Arc`/`Rc` means](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/6dyud9/hey_rustaceans_got_an_easy_question_ask_here/did87ds/). Though this is explained in various places, it's not mentioned in the documentation directly. This PR adds an explanation of the `Rc`/`Arc` acronyms to their respective documentations. There are two things I'm not sure of: * Does "Rc" mean "Reference Count**er**" or "Reference Count**ed**"? ~~I went with the former.~~ *Edit:* I've changed this to use the latter alternative. * Should this information be spelled out elsewhere, such as in the docs for the `rc` module?
