The build this job already runs, measured, plus the opt-in that lets this repository's crate names appear in the census rather than a count. They are already public here. It goes before the existing cargo steps and builds what they would have built, so the added cost is mostly the measuring rather than a second build. `strict` is on, because this is the build now: a measurement that quietly did not happen would mean nothing built the project either.

The opt-in arrived with three lines of comment explaining it, and this
repository's own `no-comments` rule caught them: ordinary comments
outside the leading ten-line file header, in a manifest that does not
have one.
Cargo.toml:N [no-comments] # Opted in: this repository is public...
The rule is right. The reasoning belongs where someone reviewing the
change reads it.

Adds this repository to the public compile-time census at https://cratebank.io/, on every CI run rather than on a schedule.
The step goes into the existing
gatejob, before thecargosteps, and builds what they would have built anyway — so the added cost is mostly the measuring rather than a second build, since the steps below reuse the target directory.The opt-in
Without it the census records the build and withholds this repository's own crate names. They are already public here. Measured on

strictdefaults to false, because a census that breaks builds is a census people switch off; here the build is the thing being measured, so silence is the worse failure.Cost
Two fixes landed in cratebank first, because doing this on every CI run rather than weekly changes what the overhead is worth:
The action step measured 244s before those and 127s after the first.
Untested here
This has never run in this repository. The first CI run on this pull request is the real test.
