Btreemap iter intertwined

3 commits:

1. Introduced benchmarks for `BTreeMap::iter()`. Benchmarks named `iter_20` were of the whole iteration process, so I renamed them. Also the benchmarks of `range` that I wrote earlier weren't very good. I included an (awkwardly named) one that compares `iter()` to `range(..)` on the same set, because the contrast is surprising:
```
 name                                           ns/iter
 btree::map::range_unbounded_unbounded          28,176
 btree::map::range_unbounded_vs_iter            89,369
```
Both dig up the same pair of leaf edges. `range(..)` also checks that some keys are correctly ordered, the only thing `iter()` does more is to copy the map's length.

2. Slightly refactoring the code to what I find more readable (not in chronological order of discovery), boosts performance:
```

```
But you can tell from the `range_unbounded_*` lines that, despite an unwarranted, vengeful attack on the range_unbounded_unbounded benchmark, this change still doesn't allow `iter()` to catch up with `range(..)`.

3. I guess that `range(..)` copes so well because it intertwines the leftmost and rightmost descend towards leaf edges, doing the two root node accesses close together, perhaps exploiting a CPU's internal pipelining? So the third commit distils a version of `range_search` (which we can't use directly because of the `Ord` bound), and we get another boost:
```

```
But I think this is just fake news from the microbenchmarking media. `iter()` is still trying to catch up with `range(..)`. And we can sure do without another function. So I would skip this 3rd commit.

SipHasher with keys initialized to 0 should just use new()

I believe that is what the `new()` is for, for good reasons.

Explain our RwLock implementation

Turns out that [with the latest POSIX docs](https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/pthread_rwlock_wrlock.html), our `RwLock` implementation is actually correct. However, we cannot fully rely on that due to bugs in older glibc (fix released in 2016). Update the comments to explain that.

I also clarified our Mutex docs a bit and fixed another instance of rust-lang#55865.
