rust: enable rustdoc::unescaped_backticks lint

ojeda · ojeda · commit bef83245f5ed · 2024-10-07T21:39:05.000+02:00
In Rust 1.71.0, `rustdoc` added the `unescaped_backticks` lint, which detects what are typically typos in Markdown formatting regarding inline code [1], e.g. from the Rust standard library: /// ... to `deref`/`deref_mut`` must ... /// ... use [`from_mut`]`. Specifically, ... It does not seem to have almost any false positives, from the experience of enabling it in the Rust standard library [2], which will be checked starting with Rust 1.82.0. The maintainers also confirmed it is ready to be used. Thus enable it.
