Unrolled build for rust-lang#135684

Rollup merge of rust-lang#135684 - ranger-ross:mutex-docs, r=joboet

docs: Documented Send and Sync requirements for Mutex + MutexGuard

This an attempt to continue where rust-lang#123225 left off.

I did some light clean up from the work done in that PR.
I also documented the `!Send` + `Sync` implementations for `MutexGuard` to the best of my knowledge.
Let me know if I got anything wrong 😄

fixes rust-lang#122856
