Subject: [PATCH] chore: upgrade rust toolchain to 1.97.0 (#3643)

Bumps the pinned Rust toolchain from 1.95.0 to the latest stable
(1.97.0).

Rust 1.97's clippy adds `useless_borrows_in_formatting`, which flags a
redundant `&` in `format!`/`debug!` arguments in a few places. This PR
removes those to keep `cargo clippy` clean.

No behavior change; the MSRV (`rust-version = "1.91.0"`) is unchanged.
