Unrolled build for #151013

Rollup merge of #151013 - ehuss:fmt-clarification, r=joboet

Add some clarifications and fixes for fmt syntax

This tries to clarify a few things regarding fmt syntax:

- The comment on `Parser::word` seems to be wrong, as that underscore-prefixed words are just fine. This was changed in #66847.
- I struggled to follow the description of the width argument. It referred to a "second argument", but I don't know what second argument it is referring to (which is the first?). Either way, I rewrote the paragraph to try to be a little more explicit, and to use shorter sentences.
- The description of the precision argument wasn't really clear about the distinction of an Nth argument and a named argument. I added a sentence to try to emphasize the difference.
- `IDENTIFIER_OR_KEYWORD` was changed recently in rust-lang/reference#2049 to include bare `_`. But fmt named arguments are not allowed to be a bare `_`.
