JetBrains has transitioned from the IntelliJ Rust plugin to RustRover as their dedicated Rust IDE. This updates the documentation to reflect this change while maintaining backward compatibility with the existing cargo dev setup intellij command.

Changes:

  • Replace IntelliJ Rust references with RustRover in CONTRIBUTING.md
  • Update links to point to official RustRover homepage
  • Update development guide in book/src/development/basics.md
  • Keep existing command names for backward compatibility

Question: Do we also need to change the intellij command to rustrover?

fixes #15406

Thanks for the review! @Alexendoo
But I have a question.
Currently, the command includes "intellij," like "cargo dev setup intellij." What do you think about changing it to "rustover"?

Sounds reasonable to me
