Stabilize the Wake trait
This PR proposes stabilizing the `wake_trait` feature, tracking issue #69912.
## Motivation
The surface area this trait introduces is small, and it has been on nightly for 4 months without any reported issues. Given the surface area of this trait is small and only serves to provide a safe interface around the already stable [`std::task::RawWakerVTable`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/task/struct.RawWaker.html) it seems unlikely this trait will require any further changes. So I'm proposing we stabilize this.
Personally I would love to have this available on stable, since it would enable cleaning up some runtime internals by removing the tedious pointer required to construct a [`RawWakerVTable`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/task/struct.RawWakerVTable.html). I believe the intent was always to introduce a `Wake` counterpart to `RawWaker` in order to safely construct `Waker` instances. And the `Wake` trait feels like it does that job as intended.
## Implementation notes
This PR itself fixes a link in the docs, and introduces an example of how to use the trait: a minimal `block_on` example that runs a future to completion on the current thread. It doesn't include fancier features such as support for nesting, but is intended to serve as a teaching device for both `task::Wake` and futures alike.
