Consider making htmldocck more specific #76942

Description

@jyn514

Currently htmldocck allows the text in rustdoc tests to be shorter, but not longer than the expected test. So if the actual text were Option<T and you wrote Option<T>, it would fail the test. But if the actual were Option<T> and the expected were Option<T, it would pass the test.

This behavior is not super intuitive and seems like it could lead to false negatives where it didn't catch regressions. Rustdoc should consider changing it.
