Don't load all extern crates unconditionally

Instead, only load the crates that are linked to with intra-doc links.

This doesn't help very much with any of rustdoc's fundamental issues
with freezing the resolver, but it at least fixes a stable-to-stable
regression, and makes the crate loading model somewhat more consistent
with rustc's.
