Stabilize feature(match_beginning_vert)
With this feature stabilized, match expressions can optionally have a `|` at the beginning of each arm.
Reference PR: rust-lang-nursery/reference#231
Closes#44101
Implement repr(transparent)
r? @eddyb for the functional changes. The bulk of the PR is error messages and docs, might be good to have a doc person look over those.

add Rust By Example to the bookshelf
cc #46194
With #46196 freshly merged, we should add a link to the main docs distribution so people can find it! We discussed this at the docs team meeting today and decided to go ahead with adding it to the bookshelf.
Allow lifetimes in macros
This is a resurrection of PR #41927 which was a resurrection of #33135, which is intended to fix#34303.
In short, this allows macros_rules! to use :lifetime as a matcher to match 'lifetimes.
Still to do:
- [x] Feature gate
Stabilize spin_loop_hint
Stabilize `spin_loop_hint` in release `1.23.0`.
I've also renamed feature `hint_core_should_pause` to `spin_loop_hint`.

rustdoc: include external files in documentation (RFC 1990)
Part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1990 (needs work on the error reporting, which i'm deferring to after this initial PR)
cc #44732
Also fixes#42760, because the prep work for the error reporting made it easy to fix that at the same time.
show in docs whether the return type of a function impls Iterator/Read/Write
Closes#25928
This PR makes it so that when rustdoc documents a function, it checks the return type to see whether it implements a handful of specific traits. If so, it will print the impl and any associated types. Rather than doing this via a whitelist within rustdoc, i chose to do this by a new `#[doc]` attribute parameter, so things like `Future` could tap into this if desired.
### Known shortcomings
~~The printing of impls currently uses the `where` class over the whole thing to shrink the font size relative to the function definition itself. Naturally, when the impl has a where clause of its own, it gets shrunken even further:~~ (This is no longer a problem because the design changed and rendered this concern moot.)
The lookup currently just looks at the top-level type, not looking inside things like Result or Option, which renders the spotlights on Read/Write a little less useful:

</details>
All three of the initially spotlighted traits are generically implemented on `&mut` references. Rustdoc currently treats a `&mut T` reference-to-a-generic as an impl on the reference primitive itself. `&mut Self` counts as a generic in the eyes of rustdoc. All this combines to create this lovely scene on `Iterator::by_ref`:

rustdoc book: talk about #![doc(test(no_crate_inject))] and #![doc(test(attr(...)))]
While investigating https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/45750 i noticed that `#![doc(test(attr(...)))]` wasn't documented at all. Since this is useful for making your examples follow the same coding guidelines as your code, i wanted to add it to the Rustdoc Book. I also added `#![doc(test(no_crate_inject))]` since it's used in the same place and might be useful for macro-heavy crates. I added mentions for these to "The `doc` attribute" as well as "Documentation tests" since it's useful information in both places.
Technically the step reordering in the second commit is gated on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/45764, since before that lands attributes from the doctest come before the ones from `#![doc(test(attr(...)))]`.
