docs/test: add docs and a UI test for `E0514` and `E0519`

No UI test on `E0514`, it would need to compile with a different `rustc` version.

+Dependency compiled with different version of `rustc`.

+Example of erroneous code:

+// compiled with stable `rustc`
+
+#[crate_type = "lib"]
+```
+

+extern crate a; // error: found crate `a` compiled by an incompatible version
+                //        of rustc
+```
+
+This error is caused when the version of `rustc` used to compile a crate, as
+stored in the binary's metadata, differs from the version of one of its
+dependencies. Many parts of Rust binaries are considered unstable. For
+instance, the Rust ABI is not stable between compiler versions. This means that
+the compiler cannot be sure about *how* to call a function between compiler
+versions, and therefore this error occurs.
+
+This error can be fixed by:
+ * Using [Cargo](../cargo/index.html), the Rust package manager and
+   [Rustup](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/), the Rust toolchain installer,
+   automatically fixing this issue.
+ * Recompiling the crates with a uniform `rustc` version.

+extern crate a;
+
+pub fn foo() {}
+
+fn bar() {
+    a::foo(); // is this calling the local crate or the dependency?
+}
+```
+
+The above example compiles two crates with exactly the same name and
+`crate_type` (plus any other metadata). This causes an error because it becomes
+impossible for the compiler to distinguish between symbols (`pub` item names).
+
+This error can be fixed by:
+ * Using [Cargo](../cargo/index.html), the Rust package manager, automatically
+   fixing this issue.
+ * Recompiling the crate with different metadata (different name/
+   `crate_type`).
