Per the [Standard Library development guide](https://std-dev-guide.rust-lang.org/code-considerations/performance/inline.html):
> You can add `#[inline]`:
>
> - To public, small, non-generic functions.
>
> You shouldn't need `#[inline]`:
> - On methods that have any generics in scope.
> - On methods on traits that don't have a default implementation.
>
> `#[inline]` can always be introduced later, so if you're in doubt they can just be removed.
This PR follows this guideline to reduce the number of `#[inline]` annotations in our code, removing the annotation in:
- Non-public functions
- Generic functions
- Medium and big functions.
Hopefully this shouldn't impact our perf at all, but let's wait to see the benchmark results.

Submitting this as a draft for feedback/second opinions. This draft contains some changes to the documentation.
Quick Overview:
- Potential `Boa` header for Boa's crates added to `boa_engine`.
- Changes the wording to a lot of module headers (See `builtins` module and `object/builtins` module).
- Updating built-in wrapper's code examples to use `?` operator.
- Adds the doc logo URL to a few crates that didn't have it.
The main idea of this draft is to move away from the "This module implements" wording as it feels a bit duplicative when listed under the Modules section (mainly focusing around changes in `boa_engine` to start).
While working on this, I had a question about whether we should be using JavaScript or ECMAScript in the Boa's documentation. We do seem to currently use both, and this draft uses JavaScript heavily in the wording.
This Pull Request restructures the lint deny/warn/allow lists in almost all crates. `boa_engine` will be done in a follow up PR as the changes there are pretty extensive.

Not sure if anyone else may be working on something more substantial/in-depth, but I thought I'd post this. 😄
The basic rundown is that this is more of an untested (and in some ways naïve) draft than anything else. It builds rather heavily on `rust-gc`, and tries to keep plenty of the core aspects so as to not break anything too much, and also to minimize overarching changes were it to actually be merged at some point.
This implementation does add ~~a generational divide (although a little unoptimized) to the heap,~~ a GcAlloc/Collector struct with methods, and an ephemeron implementation that allows for the WeakPair and WeakGc pointers.
I think it's time to address the elephant in the room.
This Pull Request will (hopefully!) solve part of #736.
This is a complete rewrite of `JsString`, but instead of storing `u8` bytes it stores `u16` words. The `encode!` macro (renamed to `utf16!` for simplicity) from the `const-utf16` crate allows us to create UTF-16 encoded arrays at compilation time. `JsString` implements `Deref<Target=[u16]>` to unlock the slice methods and possibly make some manipulations easier. However, we would need to create our own library of utilities for `JsString`.
