Rollup merge of rust-lang#89796 - jkugelman:must-use-non-mutating-verb-methods, r=joshtriplett

Add #[must_use] to non-mutating verb methods

These are methods that could be misconstrued to mutate their input, similar to rust-lang#89694. I gave each one a different custom message.

I wrote that `upgrade` and `downgrade` don't modify the input pointers. Logically they don't, but technically they do...

Parent issue: rust-lang#89692
