Rollup merge of #135750 - scottmcm:cma-example, r=cuviper

Add an example of using `carrying_mul_add` to write wider multiplication

Just the basic quadratic version that you wouldn't actually use for really-big integers, but it's nice and short so is useful as for a demonstration of why you might find `carrying_mul_add` useful :)
