Unrolled build for rust-lang#134373

Rollup merge of rust-lang#134373 - joshtriplett:pipe-docs, r=joboet

Improve and expand documentation of pipes

- Reference UNIX, not just Linux
- Simplify some of the language
- Don't imply that pipes *only* work across multiple processes; instead,
  *suggest* that they're typically used across two or more separate
  processes.
- Specify that portable applications cannot use multiple readers or
  multiple writers for messages larger than a byte, due to potential
  interleaving.

 /// # Behavior
 ///
-/// A pipe is a synchronous, unidirectional data channel between two or more processes, like an
-/// interprocess [`mpsc`](crate::sync::mpsc) provided by the OS. In particular:
+/// A pipe is a one-way data channel provided by the OS, which works across processes. A pipe is
+/// typically used to communicate between two or more separate processes, as there are better,
+/// faster ways to communicate within a single process.
+///
+/// In particular:
 ///
 /// * A read on a [`PipeReader`] blocks until the pipe is non-empty.
 /// * A write on a [`PipeWriter`] blocks when the pipe is full.
 /// * When all copies of a [`PipeWriter`] are closed, a read on the corresponding [`PipeReader`]
 ///   returns EOF.
-/// * [`PipeReader`] can be shared, but only one process will consume the data in the pipe.
+/// * [`PipeWriter`] can be shared, and multiple processes or threads can write to it at once, but
+///   writes (above a target-specific threshold) may have their data interleaved.
+/// * [`PipeReader`] can be shared, and multiple processes or threads can read it at once. Any
+///   given byte will only get consumed by one reader. There are no guarantees about data
+///   interleaving.
+/// * Portable applications cannot assume any atomicity of messages larger than a single byte.
