Some `const { }` asserts for rust-lang#128200

The correctness of code in rust-lang#128200 relies on an array being sorted (so that it can be used in binary search later), which is currently enforced with `// tidy-alphabetical` (and characters being written in `\u{XXXX}` form), as well as lack of duplicate entries with conflicting keys, which is not currently enforced.

This PR changes it to using a `const{ }` assertion (and also checks for duplicate entries). Sadly, we cannot use the recently-stabilized `is_sorted_by_key` here, because it is not const (but it would not allow us to check for uniqueness anyways). Instead, let's write a manual loop.

Alternative approach (perfect hash function): rust-lang#128463
