rustdoc: (WIP) Allows the doc generation from compiled crates.

This commit uses an existing foreign inlining facility to implement
the doc generation from compiled crates. At the highest level,
this is a *huge* hack since the metadata doesn't provide everything
we need to generate docs.

Fixes rust-lang#2206. Will fix rust-lang#15309 once integrated with Makefile.
