 These prefixes will be stripped when displayed in the documentation, so `[struct@Foo]` will be
 rendered as `Foo`. The following prefixes are available: `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `union`,
 `mod`, `module`, `const`, `constant`, `fn`, `function`, `field`, `variant`, `method`, `derive`,

 You can also disambiguate for functions by adding `()` after the function name,
 or for macros by adding `!` after the macro name. The macro `!` can be followed by `()`, `{}`,
