Is there anything we should do to advertise that the safety invariant (at least, as documented) on this intrinsic has been updated?

I don't think so. It's an intrinsic, and a relatively obscure one. |

Specifically, don't allow comparing pointers that way. Comparing pointers is subtle because you have to talk about what happens to the provenance.
This matches what Miri already implements, and all existing users are fine with this.
If raw_eq on pointers is ever desired, we can adjust the intrinsic spec and Miri implementation as needed, but for now that seems just unnecessary. Also, this is a const intrinsic, and in const, comparing pointers this way is not possible -- so if we allow the intrinsic to compare pointers in general, we need to impose an extra restrictions saying that in const-context, pointers are not okay.
