Is there a reason to leave these as usize rather than i32? (for pedagogy against using usize randomly)

Some of these can actually be inferred if we want i32, although I dunno if that would "mess up" the quality of the docs.

I figured the explicit types were there for a reason (in particular, type inference is hard on the reader, and these docs are largely targeting total newbies). In that case, I don't know that it matters what type is there. But I guess I can change it to u32 or i32.

Looks good, although there are a lot of examples using usize unnecessarily; it seems the only one that needs it is the example calling .len on a &String.

r=me all except that one are changed to u32 or something.

@huonw updated the option examples and threw on a few more modules.
