Here are the things that I tried that did not produce a link:
[`[u8]`], `[[u8]]`, `[\[u8\]]`, `\[u8\]`, [`\[u8\]`], `[[u8](u8)]`,
`[[u8][u8]]`,

This results in a link, but it includes the square brackets:
[`[u8]`][u8], [`[u8]`](u8)

This results in a link that only includes the `u8`, but it is not
formatted as code:
[[u8]]

The only other examples of linked slices that I found are in the
standard library [1].

My assuption is that crate documentation is much more often consumed in
its rendered form, which is why I think the reduced readability is ok.
However, if that is not the case this change might be a bad idea.
