Follow-up to a discussion here: #3178 (comment).

The logic here is that [foo](bar) can be used for inline links or intra-doc links, but [foo][bar] can be used for labels or intra-doc links, so if no label is present, it can only be a intra-doc link, making this less ambiguous and more robust to error check.

For reference: still waiting for some feedback in rust-lang/rust#117178.

Apparently the conclusion was that there is no preference: rust-lang/rust#121021.

I also double checked and AFAICT Rustdoc will properly generate an error regardless. So the only difference is that []() will generate a dead link but [][] will not, but its not really an issue because CI should always catch it.

Personally I would still prefer [foo][bar] over [foo](bar) despite there not being any official recommendation by Rustdoc but us being consistent in Winit. So if we have consensus I would still like to move forward with this.
