Use #[doc(fake_variadic)] to improve docs readability (#14703)

# Objective

- Fixes #14697

## Solution

This PR modifies the existing `all_tuples!` macro to optionally accept a
`#[doc(fake_variadic)]` attribute in its input. If the attribute is
present, each invocation of the impl macro gets the correct attributes
(i.e. the first impl receives `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` while the other
impls are hidden using `#[doc(hidden)]`.
Impls for the empty tuple (unit type) are left untouched (that's what
the [standard
library](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cmp/trait.PartialEq.html#impl-PartialEq-for-())
and
[serde](https://docs.rs/serde/latest/serde/trait.Serialize.html#impl-Serialize-for-())
do).

To work around https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/8811 and to get
impls on re-exports to correctly show up as variadic, `--cfg docsrs_dep`
is passed when building the docs for the toplevel `bevy` crate.

`#[doc(fake_variadic)]` only works on tuples and fn pointers, so impls
for structs like `AnyOf<(T1, T2, ..., Tn)>` are unchanged.

## Testing

I built the docs locally using `RUSTDOCFLAGS='--cfg docsrs'
RUSTFLAGS='--cfg docsrs_dep' cargo +nightly doc --no-deps --workspace`
and checked the documentation page of a trait both in its original crate
and the re-exported version in `bevy`.
The description should correctly mention for how many tuple items the
trait is implemented.

I added `rustc-args` for docs.rs to the `bevy` crate, I hope there
aren't any other notable crates that re-export `#[doc(fake_variadic)]`
traits.

## Original Description

<details>

Resolves #14697

Submitting as a draft for now, very WIP.

Unfortunately, the docs don't show the variadics nicely when looking at
reexported items.
For example:

`bevy_ecs::bundle::Bundle` correctly shows the variadic impl:

![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/90bf8af1-1d1f-4714-9143-cdd3d0199998)

while `bevy::ecs::bundle::Bundle` (the reexport) shows all the impls
(not good):

![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/439c428e-f712-465b-bec2-481f7bf5870b)

Built using `RUSTDOCFLAGS='--cfg docsrs' cargo +nightly doc --workspace
--no-deps` (`--no-deps` because of wgpu-core).

Maybe I missed something or this is a limitation in the *totally not
private* `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` thingy. In any case I desperately need
some sleep now :))

+/// All your impls are collapsed and shown as a single `impl Trait for (F₁, F₂, …, Fₙ)`.
+///
+/// The `all_tuples!` macro does most of the work for you, the only change to your implementation macro
+/// is that you have to accept attributes using `$(#[$meta:meta])*`.
+///
+/// Since this feature requires a nightly compiler, it's only enabled on docs.rs by default.
+/// Add the following to your lib.rs if not already present:
+///
+/// ```
+/// // `rustdoc_internals` is needed for `#[doc(fake_variadics)]`
+/// #![allow(internal_features)]
