"Specifying dependencies" reference lists = exact version operator under "inequalities" #6958

Problem

The = exact-version semver operator is listed under the section "Inequality requirements": https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/blob/0.35.0/src/doc/src/reference/specifying-dependencies.md#inequality-requirements. I imagine many people would consider = to be an equality requirement, not inequality. Someone skimming to find the definition of the = operator may skip over that section.

Steps

  1. go to the "Specifying Dependencies" section of the reference
  2. try to find the definition of =

Possible Solution(s)

Rename the section to something like "Equality and inequality requirements" or "Comparison requirements".

Notes

Output of cargo version: the link above is to the reference for v0.35.0.
