[PATCH v2 10/20] rust: pin-init: internal: pin_data: add `with_project` method
From: Gary Guo
Date: Thu Oct 08 2026 - 15:34:09 EST
The `project` method needs to perform covariant coercion on covariant
fields, causing them to no longer being mutable. Implement a `with_project`
that does not require covariant coercion by using higher-ranked trait
bounds, thus allow the fields to be assignable inside the callback.
This mechanism can also be used to access non-covariant fields.
