Inline most of the code paths for conversions with boxed slices

This helps with the specific problem described in #49541, obviously without
making any large change to how inlining works in the general case.

Everything involved in the conversions is made `#[inline]`, except for the
`<Vec<T>>::into_boxed_slice` entry point which is made `#[inline(always)]`
after checking that duplicating the function mentioned in the issue prevented
its inlining if I only annotate it with `#[inline]`.

For the record, that function was:

```rust
pub fn foo() -> Box<[u8]> {
    vec![0].into_boxed_slice()
}
```

To help the inliner's job, we also hoist a `self.capacity() != self.len` check
in `<Vec<T>>::shrink_to_fit` and mark it as `#[inline]` too.
