core: Use primitive indexing in slice's Index/IndexMut
[T]'s Index implementation is normally not used for indexing, instead
the compiler supplied indexing is used.
Use the compiler supplied version in Index/IndexMut.
This removes an inconsistency:
Compiler supplied bound check failures look like this:
thread 'main' panicked at 'index out of bounds: the len is 3 but the index is 4'
If you convince Rust to use the Index impl for slices, bounds check
failure looks like this instead:
thread 'main' panicked at 'assertion failed: index < self.len()'
The latter is used if you for example use Index generically::
use std::ops::Index;
fn foo<T: ?Sized>(x: &T) where T: Index<usize> { &x[4]; }
foo(&[1, 2, 3][..])
