    [$] Rust's next-generation trait solver

    Description:
    Rust's compiler team has been working on a long-term project to rewrite the trait solver the part of the compiler that determines which
    concrete function should be called when a programmer uses a trait method that is
    implemented for multiple types. The rewrite is intended to simplify
    future changes to the trait system, fix a handful of tricky soundness bugs, and
    provide faster compile times. It's also nearly finished, with a relatively small number of remaining blocking bugs.
