//! This pass lowers calls to core::slice::len to just PtrMetadata op.
//! It should run before inlining!

// `#![no_std]`: these arrive with the standard prelude and name no path, so a `std::`
// search cannot see them - and a `#[derive]` can use them without the name appearing
// in this file at all, which is why they are not trimmed by inspection.
