Unrolled build for rust-lang#131919

Rollup merge of rust-lang#131919 - RalfJung:zero-sized-accesses, r=jhpratt

zero-sized accesses are fine on null pointers

We entirely forgot to update all the function docs when changing the central docs. That's the problem with helpfully repeating shared definitions in tons of places...
