1. Update the build instructions for the standard library …

   Since rust-lang/rust#95503, `library/std` means
   "build just std and its dependencies"; to get the old behavior that built
   `proc_macro` and `test`, you need `x build library`.
   
   - Update `library/std` to `library`
   - Remove the `-i` suggestions; `incremental = true` is already the default for most profiles, in
     which case `-i` does nothing. If you don't have incremental enabled, I still think suggesting `-i`
     is bad idea, because it's easy to forget once, at which point you'll end up rebuilding the whole
     compiler / standard library.
   - Remove a few repetitive sections and don't discuss incremental in such detail
     Incremental works well enough that it should "just work" for most people;
     I don't think it needs multiple paragraphs of explanation so early in the guide.
   - Clarify that `test library/std` *only* tests libstd in a few places
