Helper trait for `[T]::concat`.

Note: the `Item` type parameter is not used in this trait, but it allows impls to be more generic. Without it, we get this error:

    error[E0207]: the type parameter `T` is not constrained by the impl trait, self type, or predica

        |
    608 | impl<T: Clone, V: Borrow<[T]>> Concat for [V] {
        |      ^ unconstrained type parameter

This is because there could exist `V` types with multiple `Borrow<[_]>` impls, such that multiple `T` types would apply:

    pub struct Foo(Vec<u32>, Vec<String>);

    impl std::borrow::Borrow<[u32]> for Foo {
        fn borrow(&self) -> &[u32] { &self.0 }
    }

    impl std::borrow::Borrow<[String]> for Foo {
        fn borrow(&self) -> &[String] { &self.1 }
    }
