CLIPPY CUTS COMPILE TIME WITH TAB-GROUP REWRITE, UBUNTU 26.04 LANDS IN BUILD ENV

Clippy killed a vector allocation that was hitting every doc comment in the crate, shaving up to 1.61% off compile time while the ecosystem upgrades to Ubuntu 26.04 LTS across build infrastructure.

Clippy's `get_chunks_of_tabs` function was collecting character indices into a vector and inspecting them pairwise for every doc comment, a pattern that allocated unnecessarily [1]. The fix rewrote the search to work directly on raw UTF-8 bytes, since tabs are single bytes that cannot appear inside other character encodings [2]. Early benchmarks show measurable wins: regex 1.10.5 dropped 1.61%, with smaller but consistent improvements across syn, serde, wasmi, and ryu [1]. Meanwhile, the Rust ecosystem's build infrastructure moved to Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, requiring ~87 package updates across ffmpeg, ICU, poppler, OpenCV, Qt6, boost, and others [3]. The build environment also added qt6-base-private-dev to support crates compiling against Qt private headers, verified by successfully building qtbridge [8]. Across 106 commits and 17 PRs in the last 24 hours, Clippy also stabilized new constants for `approx_constant` to match Rust 1.94's stable Euler gamma and golden ratio exports [4]. The compiler itself continued its steady refactor: removing outdated type-system comments, cleaning up long-dead workarounds for the P type, and hardening layout randomization guarantees for zero-sized types [5] [6] [7].
