Fix explicit lifetime clippy lint
There is a clippy lint for the use of an explicit lifetime.
Elid the lifetime instead.
What changed, and why it matters
This is a trivial code cleanup that changes how a Rust lifetime is written to satisfy a clippy lint. It does not alter program behavior, fix a bug, or address any security issue.
No action needed; this is a non-security code style fix.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The commit replaces an explicit lifetime parameter impl<'e, T: Encodable> Encoder for SliceEncoder<'e, T> with the anonymous/elided lifetime syntax impl<T: Encodable> Encoder for SliceEncoder<'_, T>. This is a purely cosmetic change to satisfy the explicit_outlives_requirements or related clippy lint. The compiled code is semantically identical.
