Description

This is to reduce the churn of updating them, and the possibility of them getting accidentally out of sync, therefore dupicated (see for example: #15396).

I have a preliminary list of the most duplicated dependency crates - I can comment it here later if you think it'd be easier to get started with that, instead of discovering them on your own.

Yes, this is shameless "new-contributor-bait". :wink:

Contributor guide
