Intra-doc links apparently don't like pointers?

Note that the number disambiguates between *const and *mut, though I don't know if the number is stable. If you don't want to disambiguate, you can also use [`to_bits`](pointer::to_bits) as an intra-doc link.

I also don't know if it's stable. I put it this way as it worked locally in x.py doc. Based on the zulip conversation there's no great solution right now, so I think I'll just leave it like this. Hopefully one day it can go back to just [`Self::to_bits`].
