Rollup merge of rust-lang#90102 - nbdd0121:box3, r=jonas-schievink

Remove `NullOp::Box`

Follow up of rust-lang#89030 and MCP rust-lang/compiler-team#460.

~1 month later nothing seems to be broken, apart from a small regression that rust-lang#89332 (1aac85bb716c09304b313d69d30d74fe7e8e1a8e) shows could be regained by remvoing the diverging path, so it shall be safe to continue and remove `NullOp::Box` completely.
