Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing rustc-dev-guide structure and locating the material related to rustc_ast. Identify where a lexer section belongs and what the current rustc_ast coverage omits. Done means the guide contains a new lexer section and an expanded rustc_ast section that fit the surrounding documentation.
