Remove core::panicking::panic's dependence on str's Display::fmt impl

Display::fmt for str calls into Formatter::pad, which is modest in size
and also pulls in string-related functions for its truncation and padding
abilities.  For size-critical programs (e.g. embedded), this call site
may be the only reason Formatter::pad is linked into the output.
