It's a bit meh to have documentation that points to places that might
404 and the user has to figure it out.

We can do better than that.

You could use CONFIG_RUST to pass e.g. "-t rustdoc" to Sphinx in the
Makefile, and use:

.. only:: rustdoc

and

.. only:: not rustdoc

And document accordingly.

Also, please don't use "here" as the link text.

BR,
Jani.
