Summary
Double-free and use-after-free in `Keys::next()`
Details
Keys::next() uses ptr::read to move out the Option<V> by value, which
drops the contained V when V is non-Copy (e.g. String). This leaves a
dangling value in the map's storage slot. Subsequent get() operations on
that key return a dangling reference to already-freed memory.
This can be triggered through safe public APIs — Map::keys(),
Keys::next(), and Map::get() — with no unsafe required from the
caller. Under Miri, accessing the freed slot produces "Undefined Behavior:
pointer not dereferenceable: alloc has been freed, so this pointer is
dangling".
