Rollup merge of #88776 - dns2utf8:rustdoc_workaround_1000_elements_grid_bug, r=GuillaumeGomez

Workaround blink/chromium grid layout limitation of 1000 rows

I made this in case we don't come up with a better solution in time.

See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/88545 for more details.

A rendered version of the standard library is hosted here:
