The "Rust Inside Other Languages" page includes a library example. The
reference specifies printing "done!" when the code finishes running, and
the language examples (Ruby, Python, JS) all do this in their code.
However, the Rust library example code *also* does this, so that the
examples as written would output "done!" twice.
This removes the "done!" from the Rust example code to clarify the docs.
This is part of #28572, but doesn't complete it. Amongst other things,
this patch:
* Increases consistency in the way feature flags are used with other
docs.
* Removes the ignores, which is nice: we actually had some syntax errors
in the examples 😭.
* Mentions #![no_core]
Realistically, this document used to be in the order of least to most:
nothing, then adding core. But with the changes in RFC 1184, this is
backwards: it now shows stuff that uses core from the beginning. In the
future, I'd like to revamp this to go from 'most to least', but I'd like
to see the discussion in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/27701
goes before I write more.
We don't completely cover documentation tests in the testing chapter,
since we cover them in the documentation chapter. So make sure people
know that.
Fixes#28082
The original blog post referred to examples by their file names, and now
that it's in guide form, there is no file name. So edit the text so that
it makes a bit more sense.
Fixes#28428
The links in the rustdoc for several places in fmt were trying to link to
the std::fmt module but actually linking to std, which was confusing.
While trying to figure out why I noticed that the documentation chapter of
the Rust book has examples that show this same bug (although it doesn't seem
widespread in practice).

- Expand the first paragraph
- Improve readability by partitioning the chapter into the following
sections: "Patterns", "Type annotations", "Mutability", and
"Initializing bindings"
- Add "Scope and shadowing" section (fix#28177)
This was non-obvious to me: with no example, I assumed `Electron {}` and
didn't know what else to try when it didn't work. The correct form is
weird because it looks like you're assigning the struct name rather than
an instance of the struct.

the example for `find` was misleading in that it fails to mention the result is either `None` or `Some` containing only the first match. Further confusing the issue is the `println!` statement, "We got some numbers!"
This wasn't complete (you need a `./configure`), and it is already
documented well in the main README.
Also adds a reference to the books that this also generates.
