Relax allocator requirements on some Rc APIs.

* Remove A: Clone bound from Rc::assume_init, Rc::downcast, and Rc::downcast_unchecked.
* Make From<Rc<[T; N]>> for Rc<[T]> allocator-aware.

Internal changes:

* Made Arc::internal_into_inner_with_allocator method into Arc::into_inner_with_allocator associated fn.
* Add private Rc::into_inner_with_allocator (to match Arc), so other fns don't have to juggle ManuallyDrop.
