Change argument type of
pointer_to_metadata
fromNonNull<Self>
to*mut Self
, since the implementations ofpointer_to_metadata
do not actually require the argument to be non-null.I anticipate this change will make future code less verbose, as many standard library APIs return raw pointers, not
NonNull
; for example,Box::into_raw
.
