The first commit adds a short note which I believe will reduce worries in people who work with closures very often and read the Rust book for their first time.
The second commit consists solely of tiny typo fixes. In some cases, I changed "logical" quotations like

because the latter seems to be the prevalent style in the book.
After PR #19766 added implicit coersions `*mut T -> *const T`, the explicit casts can be removed.
(The number of such casts turned out to be relatively small).
These two attributes are used to change the entry point into a Rust program, but
for now they're being put behind feature gates until we have a chance to think
about them a little more. The #[start] attribute specifically may have its
signature changed.
This is a breaking change to due the usage of these attributes generating errors
by default now. If your crate is using these attributes, add this to your crate
root:
#![feature(start)] // if you're using the #[start] attribute
#![feature(main)] // if you're using the #[main] attribute

This commit is an attempt to standardize the use of punctuation and
formatting in "The Rust Programming Language" as discussed in #19823.
- Convert bold text to italicized textcwhen referring to terminology.
- Convert single-quoted text to italicized or double-quoted text,
depending on context.
- Use double quotes only in the case of scare quotes or quotations.
