Consider a crates folder

[Tudyx]

I'm huge fan of your work, so I regulary send link to this repo to my friends and coroworkers. Sadly, the first reaction I get is that people are kind of a afraid by the number of folders at the root of the project. I think it could also be intimidating for new contributors.
One possible solution is to use a crates folder as described in the Matklad blog post. Rust analyzer and a lot of other project use this.
I'm aware this will break a lot of PR to do this, but as the project raise in popularity the sooner is the better.

Thank you ☺️!

I was thinking the same, but what keeps me from moving folders is the requirement of cargo-smart-release to track changes to crates through the git history. Right now it has very limited rename tracking, but would have to learn to deal with the move into the crates folder.

The code for this is here, so it's not a lot and it should be possible to retrofit it with the ability to deal with movements into crates (even though from its perspective, it moves out of crates into the root folder as it traverses backwards through time).

It would sure be nice have a new 'face' for the projects first impression for the beginning of next year, let's see if I can make it happen.
