Extra documentation for new formatting feature

Documentation of this feature was added in rust-lang#90473 and released in Rust 1.58. However, high traffic macros did not receive new examples. Namely `println!()` and `format!()`.

The doc comments included in Rust are super important to the community- especially newcomers. I have met several other newbies like myself who are unaware of this recent (well about 7 months old now) update to the language allowing for convenient intra-string identifiers.

Bringing small examples of this feature to the doc comments of `println!()` and `format!()` would be helpful to everyone learning the language.

[Feature PR](rust-lang#90473) - includes several instances of documentation of the feature- minus the macros in question for this PR
