Description
`fn main() {
let vec1 = vec![1, 2, 3];
let vec2 = vec![4, 5, 6];
// `iter()` for vecs yields `&i32`. Destructure to `i32`.
println!("2 in vec1: {}", vec1.iter() .any(|&x| x == 2));
// `into_iter()` for vecs yields `i32`. No destructuring required.
println!("2 in vec2: {}", vec2.into_iter().any(| x| x == 2));
// `iter()` only borrows `vec1` and its elements, so they can be used again
println!("vec1 len: {}", vec1.len());
println!("First element of vec1 is: {}", vec1[0]);
// `into_iter()` does move `vec2` and its elements, so they cannot be used again
// println!("First element of vec2 is: {}", vec2[0]);
// println!("vec2 len: {}", vec2.len());
// TODO: uncomment two lines above and see compiler errors.
let array1 = [1, 2, 3];
let array2 = [4, 5, 6];
// `iter()` for arrays yields `&i32`.
println!("2 in array1: {}", array1.iter() .any(|&x| x == 2));
// `into_iter()` for arrays yields `i32`.
println!("2 in array2: {}", array2.into_iter().any(|x| x == 2));
}
`
The code above is the example in section 9.2.6.1.
I've got an error like this.
I guess into_iter() yields '&i32' instead of 'i32'.
But in the web, it works just fine.

Research direction
Start with the section 9.2.6.1 example in the repository and reproduce the reported compiler error using the shown array and into_iter() code. Compare the example's documented behavior with the current Rust behavior and the live web version; done means the example compiles and its explanation accurately matches the resulting iterator item types.
