Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Does Rust not need extra linting and sanitizing tools like C++?
If you’re writing unsafe Rust, you might consider cargo miri and Rudra as additional static analyzers which can find bugs rustc won’t
-
Open Rust-related systems research problems suitable for PhD?
In my opinion, much of Rust-specific PhD research likely to be publishable and/or high impact either falls into verification (e.g Prusti, Cruesot) or bug-finding (e.g. Rudra, SyRust). Ralf Jung and his collaborators have done exceptional work in the verification space.

Is There Anyway To Analyze Unsafe Rust Code For Vulnerabilities?
Haven't used it myself, but I remembered a tool called Rudra was recently posted about in the sub

Scylla – Real-Time Big Data Database
Not sure proves your point, but maybe doesn't disprove your point strongly enough. I am not qualified to argue from experience about how Rust is ideally suited in the ways you think it is not. But from everything I have seen, it can do a whole lot of what C++ is also good at. Rust safety is not all or nothing and a codebase could definitely prioritize ergonomics over correctness.
Two things that I saw in the last couple weeks that might start to sway you.

> The overall goal would be to figure out classical error conditions like nill pointers deference.
> If I can figure out if a pointer will be nil in some execution branch, there is no reason why a computer cannot do the same.
Note, this is called flow-sensitive typing (also called type narrowing) and I think that typescript does it.

> I personally would see this as an human race level upgrades. Imagine feeding your code to a CI that spit back something like: "you will have a panic at line 156 when your input is > 4"
A model checker can do that!
See this
https://model-checking.github.io/kani/tutorial-kinds-of-fail...
Other techniques are also possible
https://github.com/viperproject/prusti-dev#quick-example
(Here I could link a lot of things, I just selected two Rust projects to illustrate)
This works better if you are able to provide contracts in your API that says which guarantees you provide. Alternatively, asserts are useful too.

Programming Languages Going Above and Beyond
You might be interested in the Prusti project, which statically checks for absence of reachable panics, overflows etc. It also allows user-defined specifications such as pre and post-conditions, loop body invariants, termination checking and so on.

Trying to find a crate that allows you to constrain the value of arguments in various ways via a proc macro
This is called refinement types and prusti might be the project you saw.

Prop v0.42 released! Don't panic! The answer is... support for dependent types :)
Wow that sounds really cool! I'm not an expert but does that mean that one day you could implement dependend types or refinement types in Rust as a crate ? I currently only know of tools like: Flux Creusot Kani Prusti
