[ACP 362] genericize `ptr::from_raw_parts`

This implements rust-lang/libs-team#362

As such, it can partially undo #124795 , letting `slice_from_raw_parts` just call `from_raw_parts` again without re-introducing the unnecessary cast to MIR.

By doing this it also removes a spurious cast from `str::from_raw_parts`.  And I think it does a good job of showing the value of the ACP, since the only thing that needed new turbofishing because of this is inside `ptr::null(_mut)`, but only because `ptr::without_provenance(_mut)` doesn't support pointers to extern types, which it absolutely could (without even changing the implementation).
