Mutate NonZero<T> generic return types

[sourcefrog]

Summary

• Support the generic NonZero<T> form (stabilized in Rust 1.79) in addition to the existing NonZeroUsize, NonZeroI32, etc. type-specific matching
• When T is a known unsigned type, generate 1; when signed, generate 1 and -1; when T is unknown, assume it could be signed and generate both
• Adds tests for unsigned, signed, and unknown type parameter cases

Closes #595

Test plan

• Unit tests for NonZero<u32>, NonZero<usize>, std::num::NonZero<u8> (unsigned)
• Unit tests for NonZero<i32>, NonZero<isize>, std::num::NonZero<i64> (signed)
• Unit test for NonZero<T> with unknown type parameter
• All existing tests continue to pass

Pull request overview

Adds mutation-generation support for Rust’s generic std::num::NonZero<T> return types (in addition to the existing NonZeroU32, NonZeroIsize, etc. matching), plus accompanying unit tests. Also updates release metadata to 27.0.0.

Changes:

• Extend type_replacements to recognize NonZero<T> and generate appropriate non-zero integer candidates based on whether T is signed/unsigned/unknown.
• Add unit tests covering unsigned, signed, and unknown generic NonZero<T> cases.
• Bump crate version and update changelog/release metadata for 27.0.0.

NEWS.md:9

• The 27.0.0 changelog entry doesn’t mention the new NonZero<T> mutation support added in this PR. Consider adding a bullet (e.g., New/Fixed) describing the generic NonZero<T> return-type replacements so the release notes reflect the user-visible change.

## 27.0.0

Released 2026-03-07.

- Changed: Command line values for `--file`, `--exclude`, `--examine-re`, and `--exclude-re` are now combined with, rather than replacing, values given in the configuration file, consistently with every other option that takes a list. (Use `--config=OTHER` or `--no-config` to avoid using values in the configuration.) Thanks to @sandersaares for pointing this out.

- New: `--Zmutate-file` lists the mutants generated from a single Rust source file in text or JSON, without reading or requiring a containing package. This is intended as an aid for developing and debugging mutation patterns.
