Specialize Vec::from_iter for vec::IntoIter

It's fairly common to expose an API which takes an `IntoIterator` and
immediately collects that into a vector. It's also common to buffer
a bunch of items into a vector and then pass that into one of these
APIs. If the iterator hasn't been advanced, we can make this `from_iter`
simply reassemble the original `Vec` with no actual iteration or
reallocation.
