Rollup merge of rust-lang#62799 - RalfJung:uninit-array, r=Centril

use const array repeat expressions for uninit_array

With a first implementation of rust-lang#49147 having landed, we can make this macro nicer and phase it out with the next bootstrap bump.

However, to make this work, we have to mark `MaybeUninit::uninit()` as promotable. I do feel uneasy about promoting stuff involving uninitialized memory, but OTOH no *operation* on `MaybeUninit` is promotable, so maybe this is okay?
