Interoperability: On the availability of std::ffi and std::os::raw in core #348

@abt8601

Description

@abt8601

The section on interoperability mentions that "Neither of these modules [std::ffi and std::os::raw] are available in core". Nonetheless, core::ffi has been around since Rust 1.30 and, to my knowledge, contains almost everything that std::ffi and std::os::raw has to offer.

Moreover, since the documentation of std::os::raw explicitly states, "Use core::ffi instead" and that std::ffi contains everything that std::os::raw has, we should probably remove mentions of std::os::raw.
