rustdoc: don't inline `pub use some_crate` unless directly asked to
cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/52509 (fixes it? i'm not sure about my comment summoning the docs team)
When rustdoc encounters a `pub use` statement for an item from another crate, it will eagerly inline its contents into your crate. This somewhat clashes with the new paths behavior in Rust 2018, in which crates are implicitly linked and re-exported with `pub use` instead of `pub extern crate`. In rust 2015, `pub extern crate` would only create a single line for its re-export in the docs, so i'm making it do the same with `pub use some_crate;`.
The exact new behavior is like this: *If rustdoc sees a `pub use` statement, and the item being imported is the root of another crate, it will only inline it if `#[doc(inline)]` is provided.* I made it only avoid crate roots because otherwise it would stop inlining any module, which may or may not be what people want.
rustdoc: refactor: move all static-file include!s into a single module
This is a smaller refactor that creates a new module `rustdoc::html::static_files`, which contains a bunch of `static` variables with all the files in `html/static` that we use. The idea behind moving them all here was to remove the duplicate `include_bytes!()` that are used by the theme-checker code. It also continues to centralize more operations in rustdoc.
Remove intermediate font specs
This is a (much) more constrained version of #54772 that also aims at improving the situation in #34681. It removes any font specifications that are not the "official" rustdoc font, and instead relies on the browser to provide the fallback font if the official on is not available. On Linux systems, this is particularly important, as fonts like Helvetica, Arial, and Times often look pretty bad since they're pulled from extracted MS fonts. A specification like `serif` or `sans-serif` lets the browser instead choose a good font.

rustdoc: refactor: centralize all command-line argument parsing
This is something i've wanted to do for a while, since we keep having to add new arguments to places like `rust_input` or `core::run_core` whenever we add a new CLI flag or the like. Those functions have inflated up to 11-19, and in some cases hiding away the locations where some CLI flags were being parsed, obscuring their use. Now, we have a central place where all command-line configuration occurs, including argument validation.
One note about the design: i grouped together all the arguments that `html::render::run` needed, so that i could pass them on from compilation in one lump instead of trying to thread through individual items or clone the entire blob ahead of time.
One other thing this adds is that rustdoc also now recognizes all the `-Z` options that rustc does, since we were manually grabbing a few previously. Now we parse a full `DebuggingOptions` struct and hand it directly to rustc when scraping docs.

Add index page argument
@Mark-Simulacrum: I might need some help from you: in bootstrap, I want to add an argument (a new flag added into `rustdoc`) in order to generate the current index directly when `rustdoc` is documenting the `std` lib. However, my change in `bootstrap` didn't do it and I assume it must be moved inside the `Std` struct. But there, I don't see how to pass it to `rustdoc` through `cargo`. Did I miss anything?
