rustdoc should support hyperlinking between crates #9539

Description

@alexcrichton

This is obviously highly desirable. This is also fairly tricky. An ideal solution would have these properties:

  • Only one person has to specify that libstd/libextra are on the web at a specific URL
  • I should be able to look at all docs without the web.
  • I should be able to hyperlink to rustpkg libs just as easily as libstd/libextra.
  • Linking across crates should have all the fancy typarams/lifetime bounds that linking intra-crate has.

I haven't quite fleshed out a good solution to this yes, so I'm opening this bug to track progress.
