[`From`]`<T> ...`

Although the spacing should theoretically be more messed up in the later as @Centril pointed out, it really looks more messed up the former when rendered by rustdoc. Strange.

This style (of putting <T> not inside the link) is much less popular than the other way around. Before this pr, its used 40 times throughout the code base vs 168 for the other style.
