Otherwise leave it empty.
Trait impls on unsized types with methods that had `Self: Sized` bounds required those methods to have a dummy implementation. Those methods are uncallable, and thus now also do not need an impl anymore. You can safely leave off those impls now, and a lint will guide you to do so. If you need to support a larger range of Rust versions, it may be advisable to wait a few releases until all your supported Rust versions do not need those methods anymore.cc @oli-obk, @compiler-errors -- origin issue/PR authors and assignees for starting to draft text
