`hir` should know nothing about URLs, markdown and html. It should
only be able to:
* resolve stringy path from documentation
* generate canonical stringy path for a def
In contrast, link rewriting should not care about semantics of paths
and names resolution, and should be concern only with text mangling
bits.
5643: Add new consuming modifier, apply consuming and mutable to methods r=matklad a=Nashenas88
This adds a new `consuming` semantic modifier for syntax highlighters.
This also emits `mutable` and `consuming` in two cases:
- When a method takes `&mut self`, then it now has `function.mutable` emitted.
- When a method takes `self`, and the type of `Self` is not `Copy`, then `function.consuming` is emitted.

Conjecture: it's impossible to use hir::Path *correctly* from an IDE.
I am not entirely sure about this, and we might need to add it back at
some point, but I have to arguments that convince me that we probably
won't:
* `hir::Path` has to know about hygiene, which an IDE can't set up
properly.
* `hir::Path` lacks identity, but you actually have to know identity
to resolve it correctly
