Description
Hi! I'm going down the list of reverse dependencies for memoffset.
core::mem::offset_of was stabilised in 1.77. Your MSRV is now 1.75.
I just wanted to leave a reminder here that you can remove the memoffset dependency whenever MSRV is next bumped (or willing to bump it for this).

Research direction
Start by checking the repository manifest and searching for uses of the memoffset dependency. Confirm whether the MSRV can be raised to Rust 1.77 or newer, then remove the dependency and replace only the identified uses with core::mem::offset_of; run the existing test suite to verify the change.
