rust: Add type annotation to fix inference on Rust Nightly...

rust: Add type annotation to fix inference on Rust Nightly When compiling with Rust Nightly, the im-rs crate silently makes use of the experimental language feature for trait impl specialization. This apperently changes public its APIs in subtle ways such that type inference of some user code can fail where it succeeds when specialization is disabled. This made Mercurial’s Rust unit tests have compilation errors on Nightly. I have not managed to find the exactl root cause, but I wrote down my findings so far at https://github.com/bodil/im-rs/issues/188 This adds type annotation to make unit tests rely less on type inference and work around the issue.

      # Oxidized Mercurial

      This project provides a Rust implementation of the Mercurial (`hg`)

      version control tool.

      Under the hood, the project uses

      [PyOxidizer](https://github.com/indygreg/PyOxidizer) to embed a Python

      interpreter in a binary built with Rust. At run-time, the Rust `fn main()`

      is called and Rust code handles initial process startup. An in-process

      Python interpreter is started (if needed) to provide additional

      functionality.

      # Building

      This project currently requires an unreleased version of PyOxidizer

      (0.7.0-pre). For best results, build the exact PyOxidizer commit

      as defined in the `pyoxidizer.bzl` file:

          $ git clone https://github.com/indygreg/PyOxidizer.git

          $ cd PyOxidizer

          $ git checkout <Git commit from pyoxidizer.bzl>

          $ cargo build --release

      Then build this Rust project using the built `pyoxidizer` executable::

          $ /path/to/pyoxidizer/target/release/pyoxidizer build

      If all goes according to plan, there should be an assembled application

      under `build/<arch>/debug/app/` with an `hg` executable:

          $ build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug/app/hg version

          Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 5.3.1+433-f99cd77d53dc+20200331)

          (see https://mercurial-scm.org for more information)

      # Running Tests

      To run tests with a built `hg` executable, you can use the `--with-hg`

      argument to `run-tests.py`. But there's a wrinkle: many tests run custom

      Python scripts that need to `import` modules provided by Mercurial. Since

      these modules are embedded in the produced `hg` executable, a regular

      Python interpreter can't access them! To work around this, set `PYTHONPATH`

      to the Mercurial source directory. e.g.:

          $ cd /path/to/hg/src/tests

          $ PYTHONPATH=`pwd`/.. python3.7 run-tests.py \

              --with-hg `pwd`/../rust/hgcli/build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug/app/hg
