Rc: value -> allocation
See #64484. This does not yet edit `Arc` as I first wanted to be sure we agree on the terminology the way it actually ends up. "value" as a term appears a lot in this file, and sometimes it refers to the value stored inside the `RcBox` while sometimes it refers to the `RcBox` itself. I tried to properly tease these apart but may have made some mistakes. The former should now always be called "inner value" and the latter "allocation".
One area where I was very unsure of which terminology is dropping: the `value` field of the `RcBox` will get dropped *earlier* than the `RcBox` itself if there are weak references. I decided that "dropping the value stored in the allocation" refers to dropping the value field, while "destroying the allocation" refers to actually freeing its backing memory.
