Tracking issue for ptr::swap_nonoverlapping (library feature swap_nonoverlapping)

[scottmcm]

Proposed in PR #42819.

This is semantically the same as a loop over ptr::swap, but with manual vectorization (from PR #40454) to make it faster for cases (like T == String) where LLVM doesn't.

In Nightly for 8 months, let’s stabilize.
