I was confused reading 'extern crate' in the examples of the book since it looks like old Rust syntax and encounters quite rare nowadays. So it is looked like not-updated. I saw an issue which tells that other people also had same thoughts. So my change is to make it clear that usage of this declaration form is intended and not-updated.

Thanks for the pull request, and welcome! The Rust team is excited to review your changes, and you should hear from @thejpster (or someone else) soon.

If any changes to this PR are deemed necessary, please add them as extra commits. This ensures that the reviewer can see what has changed since they last reviewed the code. Due to the way GitHub handles out-of-date commits, this should also make it reasonably obvious what issues have or haven't been addressed. Large or tricky changes may require several passes of review and changes.

Please see the contribution instructions for more information.

I think it would be even better to change the code from extern crate panic_halt; to use panic_halt as _;
