Part of #68490.
Care has been taken to leave the old consts where appropriate, for testing backcompat regressions, module shadowing, etc. The intrinsics docs were accidentally referring to some methods on f64 as std::f64, which I changed due to being contrary with how we normally disambiguate the shadow module from the primitive. In one other place I changed std::u8 to std::ops since it was just testing path handling in macros.
For places which have legitimate uses of the old consts, deprecated attributes have been optimistically inserted. Although currently unnecessary, they exist to emphasize to any future deprecation effort the necessity of these specific symbols and prevent them from being accidentally removed.
Otherwise code like this
#![no_implicit_prelude]
fn main() {
::std::todo!();
::std::unimplemented!();
}
will fail to compile, which is unfortunate and presumably unintended.
This changes many invocations of `panic!` in a `macro_rules!` definition
to invocations of `$crate::panic!`, which makes the invocations hygienic.
Note that this does not make the built-in macro `assert!` hygienic.
