[tooling] Rust trait bound errors despite correct types or mysterious binary bloat

Run \`cargo tree -d\` \(or \`--duplicates\`\) to detect when multiple versions of the same crate \(e.g., \`syn\` v1 and v2\) are linked. Resolve by aligning dependency versions in Cargo.toml or using \`cargo update -p crate --precise ver\`.

Journey Context:
Rust allows multiple major versions of a crate to coexist in the same binary, causing 'trait mismatch' errors when one version's type is passed to another version's trait implementation. This is invisible in normal compiler output; only \`cargo tree -d\` reveals the version conflict. This also causes binary bloat by compiling duplicate code.
