Back in #362, an assertion was added to ensure that the alignment of
bytes::Shared is even so we can use the least significant bit as a flag.
bytes_mut::Shared uses the same technique but has no such assertion so
I've added one here.
tokio::io::ReadBuf uses names `new` and `uninit` for its constructors.
For consistency with that, rename recently introduced UninitSlice
constructors to match those names.
Introduce UninitSlice::from_slice and UninitSlice::from_uninit_slice
methods which safely create Uninit slice from provided slice of maybe
uninitialised or initialised memory.
In addition, add `From<&mut [T]>` implementations (for `T=u8` and
`T=MaybeUninit<u8>`) which do conversion from slice to UninitSlice.
Closes: #552
This function can be hot in applications that do a lot of encoding. Ideally would do the same for `<BytesMut as BufMut>::put_slice` and `<BytesMut as BufMut::put_u8`.
When we freeze a BytesMut, we turn it into a Vec, and then convert that
to a Bytes. Currently, this happen using Vec::into_boxed_slice, which
reallocates to a slice of the same length as the Vev if the length and
the capacity are not equal. This can pose a performance problem if the
Vec is large or if this happens many times in a loop.
Instead, let's compare the length and capacity, and if they're the same,
continue to handle this using into_boxed_slice. Otherwise, since we
have a type of vtable which can handle a separate capacity, the shared
vtable, let's turn our Vec into that kind of Bytes. While this does not
avoid allocation altogether, it performs a fixed size allocation and
avoids any need to memcpy.
Fixes calls to `reserve` when the underlying shared buffer was already
big enough to fit the requested capacity. Previously a new even larger
buffer was created anyways. This could eventually lead to an OOM
condition.
This adds an unsafe method to convert a `&mut UninitSlice` into a
`&mut [MaybeUninit<u8>]`. This method is unsafe because some of the
bytes in the slice may be initialized, and the caller should not
overwrite them with uninitialized bytes.
This came about when auditing [tokio-util's udp frame], where they want
to pass the unitialized portion of a `BytesMut` to [ReadBuf::uninit].
They need to do this unsafe pointer casting in a few places, which
complicates audits. This method lets us document the safety invariants
the caller needs to maintain when doing this conversion.

Previously, this code produced a &mut[u8] and a Box<[u8]> to the shared
allocation upon cloning it. If the underlying allocation were actually
shared, such as through a &[u8] from the Deref impl, creating either of
these types incorrectly asserted uniqueness of the allocation.
This fixes the example in #522, but Miri still does not pass on this
test suite with -Zmiri-tag-raw-pointers because Miri does not currently
understand int to pointer casts.
I find this diagram very helpful, but a little hard to distinguish
between the boxes and the lines that connect them. This commit redraws
the boxes with line drawing characters so that the boxes appear a
little more solid, and stand out from the other lines.
* Optimize `BytesMut::reserve`: Reuse vec if possible
If the `BytesMut` holds a unqiue reference to `KIND_ARC` while the
capacity of the `Vec` is not big enough , reuse the existing `Vec`
instead of allocating a new one.

Equivalent to
```
for _ in 0..cnt {
self.put_u8(val);
}
```
but may work faster.
Name and signature is chosen to be consistent with `ptr::write_bytes`.
Include three specializations:
* `Vec<u8>`
* `&mut [u8]`
* `BytesMut`
`BytesMut` and `&mut [u8]` specializations use `ptr::write`, `Vec<u8>`
specialization uses `Vec::resize`.
