Implement Extend and FromIterator for OsString
Add the following trait impls:
- `impl Extend<OsString> for OsString`
- `impl<'a> Extend<&'a OsStr> for OsString`
- `impl FromIterator<OsString> for OsString`
- `impl<'a> FromIterator<&'a OsStr> for OsString`
Because `OsString` is a platform string with no particular semantics, concatenating them together seems acceptable.
I came across a use case for these trait impls in artichoke/artichoke#1089:
Artichoke is a Ruby interpreter. Its CLI accepts multiple `-e` switches for executing inline Ruby code, like:
```console
$ cargo -q run --bin artichoke -- -e '2.times {' -e 'puts "foo: #{__LINE__}"' -e '}'
foo: 2
foo: 2
```
I use `clap` for command line argument parsing, which collects these `-e` commands into a `Vec<OsString>`. To pass these commands to the interpreter for `Eval`, I need to join them together. Combining these impls with `Iterator::intersperse` #79524 would enable me to build a single bit of Ruby code.
Currently, I'm doing something like:
```rust
let mut commands = commands.into_iter();
let mut buf = if let Some(command) = commands.next() {
command
} else {
return Ok(Ok(()));
};
for command in commands {
buf.push("\n");
buf.push(command);
}
```
If there's interest, I'd also like to add impls for `Cow<'a, OsStr>`, which would avoid allocating the `"\n"` `OsString` in the concatenate + intersperse use case.
