rustdoc: missing const values #55680
Description
Just noticed with 1.30 that generated documentation no longer shows values of constants, only their type. Was this a deliberate change or a regression?
Aplogies if already reported, I took a quick look and did not find, nor do I recall reading in blog post.

At least for associated constants, here's a relevant thread: #53409

The change was deliberate. Rustdoc got the rendering of the value directly from the compiler, and didn't try to hide things like private or
#[doc(hidden)]fields, because it had no control over its rendering. The PR that @frewsxcv linked, (and its linked issue, #44348) contains farther discussion.jnqnfe commentedon Nov 8, 2018
