[22/24] rust: types: add `ForLt` trait for higher-ranked lifetime support
      commit: e189bdb687a5

      [ Handle macro_rules! invocations in the ForLt! proc macro's covariance
        and WF checks. Since proc macros cannot expand macro_rules!, add a
        visit_macro() implementation to conservatively assume macro
        invocations may contain lifetimes, forcing them through the
        compiler-assisted covariance proof.
      
        Fix a few typos in the documentation and in the commit message, add
        empty lines before samples, add missing periods and consistently use
        markdown.

      [ Use PhantomData<F::Of<'a>> instead of
