Rollup merge of rust-lang#56470 - llogiq:process-termination-doctest,…

… r=GuillaumeGomez

Modify doctest's auto-`fn main()` to allow `Result`s

This lets the default `fn main()` ~~return `impl Termination`~~ unwrap Results, which allows the use of `?` in most tests without adding it manually. This fixes rust-lang#56260

~~Blocked on `std::process::Termination` stabilization.~~

Using `Termination` would have been cleaner, but this should work OK.

 /// ```
 ```
 
+As of version 1.34.0, one can also omit the `fn main()`, but you will have to
+disambiguate the error type:
+
+```ignore
+/// ```
+/// use std::io;
+/// let mut input = String::new();
+/// io::stdin().read_line(&mut input)?;
+/// # Ok::<(), io:Error>(())
+/// ```
+```
+
+This is an unfortunate consequence of the `?` operator adding an implicit
+conversion, so type inference fails because the type is not unique. Please note
+that you must write the `(())` in one sequence without intermediate whitespace
+so that rustdoc understands you want an implicit `Result`-returning function.
