Regression test for #54478.

This is a regression test for #54478.

I confirmed that it fails on:
rustdoc 1.30.0-beta.12 (96a229824 2018-10-04)

+// Issue #54478: regression test showing that we can demonstrate
+// `#[global_allocator]` in code blocks built by `rustdoc`.
+//
+// ## Background
+//
+// Changes in lang-item visibility injected failures that were only
+// exposed when compiling with `-C prefer-dynamic`. But `rustdoc` used
+// `-C prefer-dynamic` (and had done so for years, for reasons we did
+// not document at that time).
+//
+// Rather than try to revise the visbility semanics, we instead
+// decided to change `rustdoc` to behave more like the compiler's
+// default setting, by leaving off `-C prefer-dynamic`.
