Migrate to the latest rust for performance
Description
The current code follows rust 2018 edition. In migrating to the latest, we can have some performance improvement.
@Mindful, what do you think to migrate to the rust latest to benefit of the performance improvement?
Hey, so I think migrating to the latest Rust is a great idea - this was actually one of the things I was thinking I should do at some point anyway. I'm not sure how big the performance improvement will be, but any performance gain is great, and even if there wasn't a performance gain I think this would still be worth it.
Basically, I 100% support this, would be great.
@Mindful, I checked the code again, and what I can do now is to update the dependencies.
Is the the actual rust version difficult to update because it would require substantial changes to the code? If so, I can try and find some time to look into it.

There are libraries like lazy_static who can be replaced by his equivalent standard library.
Others updates require to read the code to know how to optimize it.
For the moment, the change that I have in mind are minor.
