Description
Gating say an enum variant behind the unstable feature causes open_enum to gate the derived enum correctly, but not the debug impl. This blocks us from having nice intra-doc links because it's quite annoying to then gate any doclink comments in that enum variant.
For example:
#[open_enum]
#[derive(AsBytes, FromBytes, FromZeroes, Debug, Clone, Copy, PartialEq, Eq)]
#[repr(u32)]
pub enum IgvmVariableHeaderType {
....
#[cfg(feature = "unstable")]
#[cfg_attr(docsrs, doc(cfg(feature = "unstable")))]
IGVM_VHT_MEMORY_STATE_PARAMETER = 0x313,
}
becomes
#[cfg(feature = "unstable")]
#[cfg_attr(docsrs, doc(cfg(feature = "unstable")))]
pub const IGVM_VHT_MEMORY_STATE_PARAMETER: IgvmVariableHeaderType = IgvmVariableHeaderType(787);
....
impl ::core::fmt::Debug for IgvmVariableHeaderType {
fn fmt(&self, fmt: &mut ::core::fmt::Formatter) -> ::core::fmt::Result {
#![allow(unreachable_patterns)]
let s = match *self {
....
Self::IGVM_VHT_DEVICE_TREE => stringify!(IGVM_VHT_DEVICE_TREE),
Self::IGVM_VHT_MEMORY_STATE_PARAMETER => stringify!(IGVM_VHT_MEMORY_STATE_PARAMETER),
....
which doesn't compile because the type must also be cfg(feature) attr-ed in the emitted debug impl

Research direction
Start by tracing the open_enum expansion that emits the derived Debug implementation, using the cfg(feature = "unstable") enum variant example in the issue. Reproduce the feature-disabled build and inspect the generated match arms. Done means the generated Debug implementation respects the variant's cfg attributes and the example compiles without gating unrelated doc links.
