regression: inference conflicts due to new From imps on Vec<T>

[Mark-Simulacrum]

This breaks many libraries that depend on the tui crate (see method: https://docs.rs/tui/latest/tui/layout/struct.Layout.html#method.constraints).

We discussed this in the t-libs meeting. We consider this to be acceptable inference breakage due to overly-generic code. We should however add a compatibility note in the release notes.

Closing - we have a pending comments on the relnotes PR.
