gen-nested-iter-yield-0.1.3 was one of the expected cases failure cases for #120227, due to relying on the exact whitespace used by pretty-printing: see this comment summarizing the crater run. And this comment mentions relnotes.

WG-prioritization removing prioritization label (Zulip discussion).

If I understand, this breakage was abundantly discussed and approved, so there is no further actionable for us (besides the relnotes). Thanks @nnethercote for the thoroughness in #120227

@rustbot label -I-prioritize

Closing since regression is mentioned in the release notes
