//! Managed target directories.
//!
//! Cargo puts build outputs in `<workspace>/target`, which means a checkout's
//! outputs live and die with the checkout, and nothing but `rm -rf` ever
//! reclaims them. A managed target directory moves them under a root mbx owns,
//! keyed by the checkout that builds there, and leaves a symlink behind so the
//! paths people type still work.
//!
//! What that buys is collection. A target directory whose checkout no longer
//! exists is unambiguous garbage -- nothing can ever ask for it again -- and it
//! is usually the largest thing on the disk by an order of magnitude. It costs
//! nothing in cache hits: the shim maps the target directory to `${target}`
//! before anything else, so an action keys the same wherever its outputs land.
//!
//! ```text
//! <root>/v1/<digest of the workspace root>/       the target directory itself
//! <root>/v1/<digest of the workspace root>.json   which checkout it belongs to
//! ```
//!
//! The record sits beside the directory rather than inside it because `cargo
//! clean` empties the directory, and a target directory nothing can trace back
//! to a checkout could never be collected.
