Subject: [PATCH] rust: init: broaden the blanket impl of `Init`
Date: Thu, 13 Apr 2023 10:02:17 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230413100157.740697-1-benno.lossin@proton.me> (raw)

This makes it possible to use `T` as a `impl Init<T, E>` for every error
type `E` instead of just `Infallible`.
