[RFC PATCH 10/10] rust: kbuild: enable `doc_markdown` Clippy lint

[Miguel Ojeda]

Clippy supports the `doc_markdown` lint [1] since 2016 [2]:

    Checks for the presence of _, :: or camel-case words outside ticks
    in documentation.

It is a very common note in Linux kernel reviews to mention that
documentation is missing a Markdown code span, e.g.:

    /// Length of the data must be less than data_size.

should have been:

    /// Length of the data must be less than `data_size`.

This lint can identify some of those cases automatically for us.

It also caught for us other typos or mis-documentation, such as a missing
code block.

Thus enable it, now that the tree is sufficiently clean.

Relatedly, it would be nice to have something similar [3] even for
comments (not just documentation), as well as for possible intra-doc links
(which should also have less false positives).
