Rollup merge of #88230 - steffahn:a_an, r=oli-obk

Fix typos “a”→“an”

Fix typos in comments; found using a regex to find some easy instance of incorrect usage of a vs. an.

While automation was used to find these, every change was checked manually.

Changes in submodules get separate PRs:
* rust-lang/stdarch#1201
* rust-lang/cargo#9821
* rust-lang/miri#1874
* rust-lang/rls#1746
* rust-lang/rust-analyzer#9984
  _folks @ rust-analyzer are fast at merging…_
  * rust-lang/rust-analyzer#9985
  * rust-lang/rust-analyzer#9987
  * rust-lang/rust-analyzer#9989

_For `clippy`, I don’t know if the changes should better better be moved to a PR to the original repo._

<hr>

This has some overlap with #88226, but neither is a strict superset of the other.

If you want multiple commits, I can split it up; in that case, make sure to suggest a criterion for splitting.
