#1457 was closed with prejudice ;) so I've made a PR instead!

This change updates the meta/doc example to match the best practices outlined in RFC 1574 (already referenced by the doc). Specifically, it removes the "Arguments" section from the Person doc example.

I've also added a mention of cargo doc --open as it's pretty useful and people may not think to see if it exists.

I'm also suspicious about all the mentions of invoking rustdoc directly as I suspect ~everyone uses cargo doc but I haven't touched them in this change.

For some flavour as to why I want this change - I attempt to advise someone that Rust docs generally avoid enumerating all the arguments like javadoc and they pointed me to this example.
