Refactor the dependency structure from a nested unordered list to a single-level ordered list.
IMO, this is clearer, but happy to close this PR without merging, if the change is not desired.
Based on lessons learned from 2024. There's probably still more details
to say here since it was a ton of work. These are the major points that
I remember.
It was observed that some people were missing the `edition20xx` rustdoc
attribute. Although this probably won't solve that problem, I'd still
like to highlight it as something to be aware of.
support config extensions
_Copied from the `rustc-dev-guide` addition:_

>To simplify managing multiple configurations, you can create config extensions.

>For example, you can create a simple config file named `cross.toml`:

>```toml
>[build]
>build = "x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu"
>host = ["i686-unknown-linux-gnu"]
>target = ["i686-unknown-linux-gnu"]
>
>
>[llvm]
>download-ci-llvm = false
>
>[target.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu]
>llvm-config = "/path/to/llvm-19/bin/llvm-config"
>```

>Then, include this in your `bootstrap.toml`:

>```toml
>include = ["cross.toml"]
>```
>
>You can also include extensions within extensions recursively.

>**Note:** In the `include` field, the overriding logic follows a right-to-left order. For example,
in `include = ["a.toml", "b.toml"]`, extension `b.toml` overrides `a.toml`. Also, parent extensions
always overrides the inner ones.

- Rust backcompat removes the need to specify the version here
- Using these commands can result in a needless toolchain getting
downloaded, like in the case where user only has Nightly installed
Rename `LifetimeName` as `LifetimeKind`.
It's a much better name, more consistent with how we name such things.
Also rename `Lifetime::res` as `Lifetime::kind` to match. I suspect this field used to have the type `LifetimeRes` and then the type was changed but the field name remained the same.
