Rollup merge of rust-lang#86140 - scottmcm:array-hash-facepalm, r=kennytm

Mention the `Borrow` guarantee on the `Hash` implementations for Arrays and `Vec`

To remind people like me who forget about it and send PRs to make them different, and to (probably) get a test failure if the code is changed to no longer uphold it.
