Unrolled build for rust-lang#119411

Rollup merge of rust-lang#119411 - yotamofek:array-ptr-get, r=Nilstrieb

Add as_(mut_)ptr and as_(mut_)slice to raw array pointers

Hey, first time contributing to the standard libraries so not completely sure about the process.

These functions are complementary to the ones being added in rust-lang#74265 . I found them missing on array pointers.
