build-std context RFC links updated

Nice to knowtooling

What changed: Links in build‑std context RFCs were updated to keep inter‑linking working when an RFC is merged.
Production impact: The source does not say.
Try it: Open the updated RFC at https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/3873-build-std-context.md to see the new links.
Source: github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3949

Understand it, then run it

Rust RFCs are documents that describe changes to the language. Some RFCs, like the one for build-std, link to other RFCs. When an RFC is merged, the URLs in the other RFCs can become broken. The change updates those URLs so the links keep working after a merge.

The update is purely a maintenance fix; it does not add new language features or alter any code you write.

Run it now

Todayrust

// This program demonstrates that the change is purely a documentation update.
// It prints a message confirming that the RFC link update does not affect Rust code.
fn main() {
    println!("RFC link updates are a documentation maintenance task.");
}

What it printed when we ran it on Rust 1.98.1 (edition 2024)

RFC link updates are a documentation maintenance task.

Run sends this program (for Solidity, the contract and its tests) to our own sandbox, where it is compiled and run once, with no network, and what it printed or the test report comes back here. Nothing is kept. Runs are counted per visitor for the day so everyone gets a turn; the details are on the legal page.
