The previous error message used to say:

/// doc
^^^^^^^ rustdoc does not generate documentation for macros

Obviously we do generate documentation for macros, such as https://docs.rs/bitflags/1.2.1/bitflags/macro.bitflags.html. It's only macro invocations that don't get their own docs. This PR updates the message to say "rustdoc does not generate documentation for macro invocations".

I observe that prior to #69084 this used to say "rustdoc does not generate documentation for macro expansions", as implemented originally in #57882. I don't have a preference between those but I made the commit before looking up the history.
