libc and rustix are crates we regularly add new interfaces from, but they're never likely to be completely replaced by std. And they're good examples of a certain class of crates (comprehensive interfaces to large APIs), which is distinct from the itertools class of crates (broad set of independently useful APIs that we're likely to evaluate and add individually).

`libc` and `rustix` are crates we regularly add new interfaces from, but
they're never likely to be *completely* replaced by `std`.
