The reference is wrong about constants referencing statics since v1.83.0

[HeCorr]

Hello! I've noticed that the Rust 1.83.0 announcement mentions that it is now possible to reference static items in const contexts:

static S: i32 = 25;
const C: &i32 = &S;

But the Rust Reference still says it is not:

All access to a static is safe, but there are a number of restrictions on statics:

• The type must have the Sync trait bound to allow thread-safe access.
• Constants cannot refer to statics.

I am willing to write a PR for this but I am not sure what the best course of action is. Simply removing that bullet-point would mean having to rephrase the text above it, but I don't know what would sound best (also, a single bullet-point may look weird).

What should I do?

#1610 already addresses it, but there are problems that are being fixed on it.

Oops, my bad. instead of searching for existing issues/PRs I merely checked the date of the most recent ones since the update announcement was published and found none. I should have looked further. I apologize.

You may close this if you want.
