commit bef83245f5ed434932aaf07f890142b576dc5d85 upstream.

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.
