Backporting the fix for the never type fallback change #231

Hey! In rust-lang/rust#155499 (comment) we are experimenting with doing a change to the never type fallback, which we were planning for a while. We found that it breaks a lot crates that depend on old versions of trie-db.

The newer versions already have a fix for the problem, namely f0ef95b.

Would you be willing to release backports of the fix as patch versions to older versions? That would mean affected crates can fix their issues by just running cargo update. I can help with the backports, but the releases need to be done by someone with permissions to make them :)

The distribution of failures per version of trie-db is: 0.27.1 (8), 0.28.0 (21), 0.29.1 (43), 0.30.0 (219); It would be most valuable to release backports as 0.30.x and 0.29.x, although fixing earlier versions might be beneficial as well.
