…-errors offset_of: allow (unstably) taking the offset of slice tail fields Fields of type `[T]` have a statically known offset, so there is no reason to forbid them in `offset_of!`. This PR adds the `offset_of_slice` feature to allow them. I created a tracking issue: rust-lang#126151.

The container doesn't have to be sized, but the field must be sized (at least until rust-lang#126151 is stable).

The feature gate for the issue is
#![feature(offset_of_slice)].This is a tracking issue for allowing offset_of to determine the offset of unsized fields whose tail is a slice, and hence their alignment and their offset is statically known.
