Add missing `From` impls for dynamically sized types like str, [T], etc.

The difficulty with copying these impls directly from std is that you need to have a version of from_raw that works with ?Sized types. This currently doesn't work because memoffset::offset_of only supports Sized types.
@Manishearth might have a way to do it using the existing support for DSTs.
