Research direction

Start by running the reported cargo tree --target all --workspace --all-features command and inspect the hashbrown 0.16.1 dependency chain through lru, num-prime, uu_factor, and coreutils. Trace the workspace dependency declarations to identify how the duplicate dependency can be removed, then rerun the command to confirm the redundant hashbrown version is gone.
