This commit stabilizes `std::borrow`, making the following modifications
to catch up the API with language changes:
* It renames `BorrowFrom` to `Borrow`, as was originally intended (but
blocked for technical reasons), and reorders the parameters
accordingly.
* It moves the type parameter of `ToOwned` to an associated type. This
is somewhat less flexible, in that each borrowed type must have a
unique owned type, but leads to a significant simplification for
`Cow`. Flexibility can be regained by using newtyped slices, which is
advisable for other reasons anyway.
* It removes the owned type parameter from `Cow`, making the type much
less verbose.
* Deprecates the `is_owned` and `is_borrowed` predicates in favor of
direct matching.
The above API changes are relatively minor; the basic functionality
remains the same, and essentially the whole module is now marked
`#[stable]`.
