Description

Crate maintainers should be allowed to specify features which are off by default, but enabled by default in docs. This would allow people to compile docs for all of the extra features, while also turning these features off by default for most builds.

Research direction

Start by reading the proposal in this issue and the repository's RFC process. Define how maintainers would mark features as enabled for documentation while keeping them disabled for normal builds, including the expected documentation and build behavior. Done means the behavior is specified clearly enough for an accepted RFC and subsequent implementation.
