Description

We currently have a number of code blocks marked with compile_fail: this is often because they depend on third-party crates which aren't available when running mdbook test.

We should look into using https://github.com/tfpk/mdbook-keeper/ to handle testing instead. It explicitly supports using third-party crates in code snippets.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate mdbook keeper tool, understand its integration with mdbook, and propose how to replace compile fail code blocks with tested snippets using third party crates.
