Subject: [PATCH 10/33] rust: transmute: simplify code with Rust 1.80.0 `split_at_*checked()`

From: Miguel Ojeda <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2026 13:45:17 +0200

`feature(split_at_checked)` [1] has been stabilized in Rust 1.80.0 [2],
which is beyond our new minimum Rust version (Rust 1.85.0).

Thus simplify the code using `split_at_*checked()`.
