rustdoc: reference function signature types from the `p` array
This reduces the size of the function signature index, because it's common to have many functions that operate on the same types.
$ wc -c search-index-old.js search-index-new.js
5224374 search-index-old.js
3932314 search-index-new.js
By my math, this reduces the uncompressed size of the search index by 32%.
On compressed signatures, the wins are less drastic, a mere 8%:
$ wc -c search-index-old.js.gz search-index-new.js.gz
404532 search-index-old.js.gz
371635 search-index-new.js.gz
