const fn integer operations
A follow up to #51171
Fixes #51267
Makes a lot of the integer methods (`swap_bytes`, `count_ones` etc) `const fn`s. See #51267 for a discussion about why this is wanted and the solution used.

Provide more context for what the {f32,f64}::EPSILON values represent.
Introduce the 'machine epsilon' term because if one googles 'epsilon', they might stumble upon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epsilon_numbers_(mathematics) instead of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_epsilon

Add missing Wrapping methods, use doc_comment!
Re-opened version of #49393 . Finishing touches for #32463.
Note that this adds `Shl` and `Shr` implementations for `Wrapping<i128>` and `Wrapping<u128>`, which were previously missed. This is technically insta-stable, but I don't know why this would be a problem.

Add inherent methods in libcore for [T], [u8], str, f32, and f64
# Background
Primitive types are defined by the language, they don’t have a type definition like `pub struct Foo { … }` in any crate. So they don’t “belong” to any crate as far as `impl` coherence is concerned, and on principle no crate would be able to define inherent methods for them, without a trait. Since we want these types to have inherent methods anyway, the standard library (with cooperation from the compiler) bends this rule with code like [`#[lang = "u8"] impl u8 { /*…*/ }`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/1.25.0/src/libcore/num/mod.rs#L2244-L2245). The `#[lang]` attribute is permanently-unstable and never intended to be used outside of the standard library.
Each lang item can only be defined once. Before this PR there is one impl-coherence-rule-bending lang item per primitive type (plus one for `[u8]`, which overlaps with `[T]`). And so one `impl` block each. These blocks for `str`, `[T]` and `[u8]` are in liballoc rather than libcore because *some* of the methods (like `<[T]>::to_vec(&self) -> Vec<T> where T: Clone`) need a global memory allocator which we don’t want to make a requirement in libcore. Similarly, `impl f32` and `impl f64` are in libstd because some of the methods are based on FFI calls to C’s `libm` and we want, as much as possible, libcore not to require “runtime support”.
In libcore, the methods of `str` and `[T]` that don’t allocate are made available through two **unstable traits** `StrExt` and `SliceExt` (so the traits can’t be *named* by programs on the Stable release channel) that have **stable methods** and are re-exported in the libcore prelude (so that programs on Stable can *call* these methods anyway). Non-allocating `[u8]` methods are not available in libcore: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/45803. Some `f32` and `f64` methods are in an unstable `core::num::Float` trait with stable methods, but that one is **not in the libcore prelude**. (So as far as Stable programs are concerns it doesn’t exist, and I don’t know what the point was to mark these methods `#[stable]`.)
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/32110 is the tracking issue for these unstable traits.
# High-level proposal
Since the standard library is already bending the rules, why not bend them *a little more*? By defining a few additional lang items, the compiler can allow the standard library to have *two* `impl` blocks (in different crates) for some primitive types.
The `StrExt` and `SliceExt` traits still exist for now so that we can bootstrap from a previous-version compiler that doesn’t have these lang items yet, but they can be removed in next release cycle. (`Float` is used internally and needs to be public for libcore unit tests, but was already `#[doc(hidden)]`.) I don’t know if https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/32110 should be closed by this PR, or only when the traits are entirely removed after we make a new bootstrap compiler.
# Float methods
Among the methods of the `core::num::Float` trait, three are based on LLVM intrinsics: `abs`, `signum`, and `powi`. PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/27823 “Remove dependencies on libm functions from libcore” moved a bunch of `core::num::Float` methods back to libstd, but left these three behind. However they aren’t specifically discussed in the PR thread. The `compiler_builtins` crate defines `__powisf2` and `__powidf2` functions that look like implementations of `powi`, but I couldn’t find a connection with the `llvm.powi.f32` and `llvm.powi.f32` intrinsics by grepping through LLVM’s code.
In discussion starting at https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/32110#issuecomment-370647922 Alex says that we do not want methods in libcore that require “runtime support”, but it’s not clear whether that applies to these `abs`, `signum`, or `powi`. In doubt, I’ve **removed** them for the trait and moved them to inherent methods in libstd for now. We can move them back later (or in this PR) if we decide that’s appropriate.
# Change details
For users on the Stable release channel:
* I believe this PR does not make any breaking change
* Some methods for `[u8]`, `f32`, and `f64` are newly available to `#![no_std]` users (fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/45803)
* There should be no visible change for `std` users in terms of what programs compile or what their behavior is. (Only in compiler error messages, possibly.)
For Nightly users, additionally:
* The unstable `StrExt` and `SliceExt` traits are gone
* Their methods are now inherent methods of `str` and `[T]` (so only code that explicitly named the traits should be affected, not "normal" method calls)
* The `abs`, `signum` and `powi` methods of the `Float` trait are gone
* The `Float` trait’s unstable feature name changed to `float_internals` with no associated tracking issue, to reflect it being a permanently unstable implementation detail rather than a public API on a path to stabilization.
* Its remaining methods are now inherent methods of `f32` and `f64`.

`Float` still needs to be public for libcore unit tests.

Affected methods are `abs`, `signum`, and `powi`.

… previously in the unstable core::num::Float trait.
Per https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/32110#issuecomment-379503183,
the `abs`, `signum`, and `powi` methods are *not* included for now
since they rely on LLVM intrinsics and we haven’t determined yet whether
those instrinsics lower to calls to libm functions on any platform.

Instead, expose apparently-fallible conversions in cases where
the implementation happens to be infallible for a given target.
Having an associated type / return type in a public API change
based on the target is a portability hazard.

There is precendent in C for having a minimum pointer size, but I don’t feel confident enough about the future to mandate a maximum.

Wrapping<T> now implements:
count_ones, count_zeros, leading_zeros,
trailing_zeros, rotate_left, rotate_right, swap_bytes, from_be,
from_le, to_be, to_le, and pow
where T is:
u8, u16, u32, u64, usize, i8, i16, i32, i64, or isize.
Docs were written for all these methods, as well as examples. The
examples mirror the ones on u8, u16, etc... for consistency.
Closes #32463
