Auto merge of #95956 - yaahc:stable-in-unstable, r=cjgillot

Support unstable moves via stable in unstable items

part of https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/131828-t-compiler/topic/moving.20items.20to.20core.20unstably and a blocker of #90328.

The libs-api team needs the ability to move an already stable item to a new location unstably, in this case for Error in core. Otherwise these changes are insta-stable making them much harder to merge.

This PR attempts to solve the problem by checking the stability of path segments as well as the last item in the path itself, which is currently the only thing checked.
