Rollup merge of #79069 - jyn514:class-none, r=GuillaumeGomez

Get rid of `highlight::Class::None`

This is mostly me learning the codebase for https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/77939, so feel free to close the PR.
It does have the small benefit that we statically know rustdoc isn't generating useless `span`s, though.
