Leaving this as a todo for myself:

We should probably rename this flag to notable_trait since (a) it's clearer and (b) that's what the popup that it triggers is called. We should probably do it in another PR though; I'll try to do that soon.

This is a user-facing change. I know doc(spotlight) is nightly only, but is the improvement worth it? I think spotlight is reasonably clear.

I don't think it's that clear of a name. "spotlight" could mean many things, but doc(spotlight) means a very specific thing. For example, I could imagine "spotlight" meaning that rustdoc puts it at the top of the module page and highlights it.

Yeah, I feel like we should call it notable_trait or something since most users won't know the name "spotlight".

Rename `#[doc(spotlight)]` to `#[doc(notable_trait)]`

Fixes rust-lang#80936.

"spotlight" is not a very specific or self-explaining name.
Additionally, the dialog that it triggers is called "Notable traits".
So, "notable trait" is a better name.

* Rename `#[doc(spotlight)]` to `#[doc(notable_trait)]`
* Rename `#![feature(doc_spotlight)]` to `#![feature(doc_notable_trait)]`
* Update documentation
* Improve documentation
