Fixed fourcc example doc
Finalize the Seek API

This adopts the rules posted in #10432:

1. If a seek position is negative, then an error is generated
2. Seeks beyond the end-of-file are allowed. Future writes will fill the gap
   with data and future reads will return errors.
3. Seeks within the bounds of a file are fine.

Closes #10432
auto merge of #12196 : dguenther/rust/fix-fourcc-example, r=alexcrichton

Cleans up a few issues with `fourcc`:
* Corrects the endianness in the docs example
* Removes `#[cfg(not(test))]` (bors might not build this on Windows. If the build fails, I'll re-add it)
* Adds a FIXME referencing the LLVM assert issue we encountered with bors builds on Windows (Same error as #10872)

Ignore another fourcc test on cross compiles

Hurray more snapshot blockers!
auto merge of #12165 : fhahn/rust/change-some-tests, r=alexcrichton

While working on #11363 I stumbled over a couple of ignored tests, that seem to be fixed or invalid.

* src/test/run-pass/issue-3559.rs was fixed in #4726
* src/test/compile-fail/borrowck-call-sendfn.rs was fixed in #2978
* update src/test/compile-fail/issue-5500-1.rs to work with current Rust (I'm not 100% sure if the original condition is tested as mentioned in #5500, but I think so)
* removed src/test/compile-fail/issue-5500.rs because it is tested in
    src/test/run-fail/issue-5500.rs (they are the same test cases, I just renamed src/test/run-fail/addr-of-bot.rs to be consistent with the other issue name
remove duplicate function from std::ptr (is_null, is_not_null, offset, mut_offset)
