rustdoc: link to stable/beta docs consistently in documentation
This is an alternative to rust-lang#84941 which fixes the problem consistently by linking to stable/beta for *all* items, not just for primitives.
## User-facing changes
- Intra-doc links to primitives that currently go to rust-lang.org/nightly/std/primitive.x.html will start going to channel that rustdoc was built with. Nightly will continue going to /nightly; Beta will link to /beta; stable compilers will link to /1.52.1 (or whatever version they were built as).
- Cross-crate links from std to core currently go to /nightly unconditionally. They will start going to /1.52.0 on stable channels (but remain the same on nightly channels).
- Intra-crate links from std to std (or core to core) currently go to the same URL they are hosted at; they will continue to do so. Notably, this is different from everything else because it can preserve the distinction between /stable and /1.52.0 by using relative links.
Note that "links" includes both intra-doc links and rustdoc's own
automatically generated hyperlinks.
## Implementation changes
- Update the testsuite to allow linking to /beta and /1.52.1 in docs
- Use an html_root_url for the standard library that's dependent on the channel
This avoids linking to nightly docs on stable.
- Update rustdoc to use channel-dependent links for primitives from an
unknown crate
- Set DOC_RUST_LANG_ORG_CHANNEL from bootstrap to ensure it's in sync
- Include doc.rust-lang.org in the channel
cc Mark-Simulacrum - I know [you were dubious about this in the past](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/122651-general/topic/Rustdoc.20unconditionally.20links.20to.20nightly.20libstd.20docs/near/231223124), but I'm not quite sure why? I see this as "just a bugfix", I don't know why rustdoc should unconditionally link to nightly.

> I would welcome a PR to solve this permanently if anyone has ideas for how. I don't believe we need an RFC.
Fixesrust-lang#30693 (note that issue is marked as feature-accepted, although I don't see where it was discussed).
