Document subtleties of `ManuallyDrop`

After seeing rust-lang#130140 and rust-lang#130141, I figured that `ManuallyDrop` needs documentation explaining its subtleties, hence this PR.

+/// # Interaction with `Box`
+///
+/// Currently, if you have a `ManuallyDrop<T>`, where the type `T` is a `Box` or
+/// contains a `Box` inside, then dropping the `T` followed by moving the
+/// `ManuallyDrop<T>` is [considered to be undefined
+/// behavior](https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines/issues/245).
+/// That is, the following code causes undefined behavior:
+///
+/// ```no_run
+/// use std::mem::ManuallyDrop;
+///
+/// let mut x = ManuallyDrop::new(Box::new(42));
+/// unsafe {
+///     ManuallyDrop::drop(&mut x);
+/// }
+/// let y = x; // Undefined behavior!
+/// ```
+///
+/// This is [likely to change in the
+/// future](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/3336-maybe-dangling.html). In the
+/// meantime, consider using [`MaybeUninit`] instead.
+///
+/// # Safety hazards when storing `ManuallyDrop` in a struct or an enum.
+///
+/// Special care is needed when all of the conditions below are met:
+/// * A struct or enum contains a `ManuallyDrop`.
+/// * The `ManuallyDrop` is not inside a `union`.
+/// * The struct or enum is part of public API, or is stored in a struct or an
+///   enum that is part of public API.
+/// * There is code that drops the contents of the `ManuallyDrop` field, and
+///   this code is outside the struct or enum's `Drop` implementation.
+///
+/// In particular, the following hazards may occur:
+///
+/// #### Storing generic types
+///
+/// If the `ManuallyDrop` contains a client-supplied generic type, the client
+/// might provide a `Box` as that type. This would cause undefined behavior when
+/// the struct or enum is later moved, as mentioned in the previous section. For
+/// example, the following code causes undefined behavior:
+///
+/// ```no_run
+/// use std::mem::ManuallyDrop;
+///
+/// pub struct BadOption<T> {
+///     // Invariant: Has been dropped iff `is_some` is false.
+///     value: ManuallyDrop<T>,
+///     is_some: bool,
+/// }
+/// impl<T> BadOption<T> {
+///     pub fn new(value: T) -> Self {
+///         Self { value: ManuallyDrop::new(value), is_some: true }
+///     }
+///     pub fn change_to_none(&mut self) {
+///         if self.is_some {
+///             self.is_some = false;
+///             unsafe {
+///                 // SAFETY: `value` hasn't been dropped yet, as per the invariant
+///                 // (This is actually unsound!)
+///                 ManuallyDrop::drop(&mut self.value);
+///             }
+///         }
+///     }
+/// }
+///
+/// // In another crate:
+///
+/// let mut option = BadOption::new(Box::new(42));
+/// option.change_to_none();
+/// let option2 = option; // Undefined behavior!
+/// ```
+///
+/// #### Deriving traits
+///
+/// Deriving `Debug`, `Clone`, `PartialEq`, `PartialOrd`, `Ord`, or `Hash` on
+/// the struct or enum could be unsound, since the derived implementations of
+/// these traits would access the `ManuallyDrop` field. For example, the
+/// following code causes undefined behavior:
+///
+/// ```no_run
+/// use std::mem::ManuallyDrop;
+///
+/// // This derive is unsound in combination with the `ManuallyDrop::drop` call.
+/// #[derive(Debug)]
+/// pub struct Foo {
+///     value: ManuallyDrop<String>,
+/// }
+/// impl Foo {
+///     pub fn new() -> Self {
+///         let mut temp = Self {
+///             value: ManuallyDrop::new(String::from("Unsafe rust is hard."))
+///         };
+///         unsafe {
+///             // SAFETY: `value` hasn't been dropped yet.
+///             ManuallyDrop::drop(&mut temp.value);
+///         }
+///         temp
+///     }
+/// }
+///
+/// // In another crate:
+///
+/// let foo = Foo::new();
+/// println!("{:?}", foo); // Undefined behavior!
