Certain items are ignored when computing documentation coverage

[newinnovations]

Code

I discussed this on rust-lang/docs.rs#2884 . @GuillaumeGomez suggested it might be bug, so I am reporting it here.

It seems that certain items are ignored when computing documentation coverage.

The file src/c_api/pdfium.rs contains more than 400 functions with documentation, but these functions are not counted.

The reason might be either that the impl is in a different file than the struct definition (done here to keep stuff manageable) or because they don't follow the rust naming conventions as they map directly to C functions.

In either case I would expect them to be counted. Now we are ignoring a major part of the crate.

Reproduction Steps

git clone https://github.com/newinnovations/PDFium-rs.git
cd PDFium-rs/
git checkout 92baa03
cargo rustdoc -- --show-coverage -Z unstable-options

Expected Outcome

That src/c_api/pdfium.rs was counted and part of the report.

Actual Output

 Documenting pdfium v0.9.3 (/tmp/PDFium-rs)
