chore: small tweak to the serde CommandArg impl for cargo 1.61.0-nightly

The nightly version 1.61.0 of Cargo is failing to generate JSON documentation for this implementation, so we're helping it a little bit by changing `Self` to `D` since that's where their assert is failing

Editor assessment

The body is where this message truly excels. The subject 'small tweak to the serde CommandArg impl for cargo 1.61.0-nightly' is a bit vague ('small tweak') and noun-phrased rather than imperative, but the body redeems it completely: it names the failing toolchain version, explains the workaround ('changing `Self` to `D` since that's where their assert is failing'), and gives just enough context to reconstruct the decision later. This is exactly the what-and-why prose the spec hopes for. Given the substance, chore is defensible even though the change touches source — it exists to appease a toolchain, not to alter behavior. A crisper subject like 'work around rustdoc JSON failure in CommandArg' would round it out.
