Description

rust-lang/rust#145617 specifies the behavior for the unstable frontmatter as directed in rust-lang/style-team#212

Support for this still needs to be implemented. rust-lang/rust#145766 made sure that rustfmt doesn't eat the frontmatter, at least. This is blocked on a submodule update.

Research direction

Read rust-lang/rust#145617 for the required unstable frontmatter behavior and rust-lang/style-team#212 for the style guidance. Check rust-lang/rust#145766 and the submodule state first, since implementation is blocked on a submodule update. Done means rustfmt styles frontmatter according to the referenced guide without losing it.
