Research direction

Locate the dependency declarations for zerocopy-derive and prettyplease, then inspect the surrounding workspace configuration and existing dependency-update checks. Update syn to v3 and prettyplease to v0.3, and run the repository's relevant checks to confirm the derive crate and its dependents still build and test successfully.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Following the recent release of syn v3, would it be possible to update it in zerocopy-derive (and prettyplease to v0.3), with the aim of reducing dependency duplication in dependents? (I would PR it but I don't want to sign the CLA.)
