Optimize iterator adapters.

Specifically, make count, nth, and last call the corresponding methods
on the underlying iterator where possible. This way, if the underlying
iterator has an optimized count, nth, or last implementations (e.g.
slice::Iter), these methods will propagate these optimizations.

Additionally, change Skip::next to take advantage of a potentially
optimized nth method on the underlying iterator.
