Auto merge of rust-lang#114231 - ttsugriy:binary_search_slice, r=cjgillot
[rustc_data_structures] Use partition_point to find slice range end.
This PR uses approach introduced in rust-lang#114152 to find
the end of the range. It's much easier to understand and reason about invariants of such
implementation.
Technically it's possible to make it even shorter by returning `&[start..end]` unconditionally
because even if searched item is not present in the slice, `start` and `end` would point at
the same index, so the range would be empty. The reason I decided not to use this shorter
implementation is because it would involve more comparisons in case there are no elements
in the slice with key equal to `key`.
Also, not that it matters much, but this implementation also improves perf according to the
benchmark below:
