Contributor guide
Research direction
Search the Cargo manifests and dependency tree to find where the instant 0.1.13 dependency enters http-types. Check the web-time crate and the Rustsec advisory, then run the project's existing tests after updating the dependency. Done means instant is no longer used and the test suite still passes.
