0.43.0 published with wrong version

[ehuss]

Problem
It looks like 0.43.0 was published with the wrong version. rust 1.42.0 was published with 8633429 (seen at https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/tree/1.42.0/src/tools or running cargo -V). However, it looks like 0.43.0 was tagged with 9d32b7b (0.43.0), missing #7848, and the version on crates.io is also the older commit.

I'm not sure what the best solution is. Maybe publish 0.43.1 with the fix?

Notes
@pietroalbini is there something we can do to improve the release process to avoid problems like these? This happened recently (#7503), and I'd like to try to avoid it happening again. I'm not familiar with your process, but if it is automated perhaps there's something that needs to be fixed?

@Mark-Simulacrum what do we want to do?

I'm mostly doing stuff manually, which is probably the cause of my occasional errors :(

I think we should yank what we've published and publish 0.43.1 (with the correct version).

I think we should also work on automating the release process in general; this step at least seems like it could plausibly happen entirely automatically. Testing that automation may be a bit painful, but maybe we can publish to a staging version of crates.io?

I should be able to find the time to work on such automation in the next 6 weeks. In theory it should just be built-in to our normal release process I think.

I have bumped the version to 0.43.1 on the rust-1.42.0 branch. If someone with permission could re-publish cargo, this can be closed (make sure it is revision 5b129c4).

Published!
