Research direction
Compare the Rust Reference sections on if let and while let, following the links in the issue, and review the linked RFC's rollout plan. Update the while let documentation to note the restriction on top-level || and && expressions, then verify that the wording matches the existing reference and current behavior.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Comparing the reference’s section on if let vs. the one on while let, the latter contains no note about top-level || and && being disallowed, even though this is the case by the corresponding RFC as well as in practice.
