The ch12/noop from section 12.7 doesn't exists

FWIW, apparently ch12/noop was an executable, and it seems to have been added in June 2022:

ewen@rustdev:~/misc/src/rust/rust-in-action/ch12$ git log noop
commit 6ebd519f5a691a2f4c7d9cfbdb2d3e708e9d9681 (HEAD -> 1st-edition, origin/HEAD, origin/1st-edition)

    ch12: add noop binary for completeness
ewen@rustdev:~/misc/src/rust/rust-in-action/ch12$ 

Possibly that should have resolved this issue?

Actually in the release version of the book, section 12.7 has two examples referred to as:

rustc ch12/fn-ptr-demo-1.rs && ./fn-ptr-demo-1

and

rustc ch12/fn-ptr-demo-2.rs && ./fn-ptr-demo-2

which are Listing 12.9 and Listing 12.10 respectively. The source to those probably should be in this repository (neither is present, just the noop executable!).

I think the noop binary which was added corresponds to Listing 12.9 (ie fn-ptr-demo-1.rs) based on the output. But it's unclear why the binary was added, rather than the source. Especialy as the binary will, at best, only work on Linux.
