Right now we need to call iter() on a vector to use a for loop.

script;

fn main()  {
    let mut vector = Vec::new();
    for _n in vector.iter() {
    }
}

The proposed change in this issue is to desugar the for loop into two expressions the default one we already have and another one that tries to automatically call the fully qualified path .into_iter() method on the iterator part of the for. When the first desugared expression fails to compile we would try to use the second one.

An example of this on rust is https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2021&gist=6bcab16907b3a79b239249ba98557afe

## Description

This implements an Iterator trait in std-lib, and adds iter() to Vec.
This also adds parsing and desugaring of for loops.

```
    for pattern in iterator {
        code_block
    }
```
 is desugared into:
```
    let mut iterable = iterator;
    while true {
        let value_opt = iterable.next();
        if value_opt.is_none() {
             break;
        }
        let value = value_opt.unwrap();
        code_block
    }
```

This also adds for loops documentation to the control flow docs.

We still have to fix this issues:
 -  #5567
 -  #5568
 -  #5570
 -  #5571

Closes #145
