Alternately we could ellipsize it like we do for some other sidebar items:
We should pick one strategy or the other for the sidebar, or come up with some reasoning why we should do it differently for headings vs links. |

Actually, the ellipsization is broken, because it will ellipsize and wrap in some situations:
For instance The example is from the sidebar for String, but with a larger font size than the default. |

Enable wrapping words by default Faced with a very long word, browsers will let it overflow its box horizontally rather than break it in the middle. We essentially never want that behavior. We would rather break the word and keep it inside its horizontal limits. So we apply a default overflow-wrap: break-word/anywhere to the document as a while. In some contexts we would rather add a horizontal scrollbar (code blocks), or elide the excess text with an ellipsis (sidebar). Those still work as expected. Fixes rust-lang#92771 [Some related discussion](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/266220-rustdoc/topic/wrap.20.2F.20overflow.20.2F.20scroll) and a related issue: rust-lang#92421.

It has been fixed differently in the end:

When a crate name is long, the "See all
<crate name>items" heading in the sidebar overflows its box.E.g.: https://docs.rs/trillium-caching-headers/0.1.0/trillium_caching_headers/index.html
Note that
Crate trillium_caching_headersabove it does not overflow, because it hasword-wrap: break-word. Perhaps we should consider applying that to everything as a default (since we often have this type of overflow problem), and override that default in specific places, like code examples, where we'd rather have a horizontal scroll.Another recent example of overflowing a box was #89972 (and a fix in #90018).
