## Document primitives

This is for Rust compiler internal use only.

Since primitive types are defined in the compiler, there's no place to attach documentation
attributes. The `#[doc(primitive)]` attribute is used by the standard library to provide a way to generate
documentation for primitive types, and requires `#![feature(doc_primitive)]` to enable.

## Document keywords

This is for Rust compiler internal use only.

Rust keywords are documented in the standard library (look for `match` for example).

To do so, the `#[doc(keyword = "...")]` attribute is used. Example:

```rust
#![feature(doc_keyword)]

/// Some documentation about the keyword.
#[doc(keyword = "keyword")]
mod empty_mod {}
```
