Auto merge of #26293 - mihneadb:rustdoc-search-orphan-methods, r=alexcrichton

In https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/23289, I did not include the type information for searching for orphan methods (methods that are defined in a module and implemented in another - doing this causes rustdoc sometimes to first find the impl before the actual type).

This PR fixes this. By merging this, searches for `char -> bool` will also find `is_alphabetic`, for example (which otherwise was only found for `charext -> bool`).
