Unrolled build for rust-lang#122015

Rollup merge of rust-lang#122015 - dev-ardi:master, r=nnethercote

Add better explanation for `rustc_index::IndexVec`

I feel like I didn't do a great job explaining what this does in rust-lang#119800, so this PR tries to give an example of why and how you would use it.

Addresses rust-lang#93792.

+/// An `IndexVec` allows element access only via a specific associated index type, meaning that
+/// trying to use the wrong index type (possibly accessing an invalid element) will fail at
+/// compile time.
+///
+/// It also documents what the index is indexing: in a `HashMap<usize, Something>` it's not
+/// immediately clear what the `usize` means, while a `HashMap<FieldIdx, Something>` makes it obvious.
