rustdoc doesn't gate cfg(true/false) within doc(cfg(..))

[Urgau]

I tried this code:

// #![feature(cfg_boolean_literals)] should be required
#![feature(doc_cfg)]

#[doc(cfg(false))]
pub fn foo() {}

#[doc(cfg(true))]
pub fn bar() {}

I expected to see this happen: An error requiring #![feature(cfg_boolean_literals)], as is the case currently when done #[cfg(true)].

Instead, this happened: The documenation is generated and no extra feature gate is required.

The current feature gating is done (for rustc) when evaluating the cfg, maybe rustdoc should do the same, even through it will just discard the result.

rust/compiler/rustc_attr_parsing/src/attributes/cfg.rs

Lines 95 to 104 in 30f168e

	gate_cfg(
	&(
	if *b { kw::True } else { kw::False },
	sym::cfg_boolean_literals,
	|features: &Features| features.cfg_boolean_literals(),
	),
	cfg.span(),
	sess,
	features,
	);

And if rustdoc where to call cfg_matches (one function upper), then #[doc(cfg(...))] would get check-cfg for free, as it's checked in that function.
