* `&mut T` to `*mut T`
* Unsizing: `T` to `U` if `T` implements `CoerceUnsized<U>`
* Deref coercion: Expression `&x` of type `&T` to `&*x` of type `&U` if `T` derefs to `U` (i.e. `T: Deref<Target=U>`)
* Non-capturing closure to a function pointer ([RFC 1558](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/1558-closure-to-fn-coercion.html)), e.g. `|| 8usize` to `fn() -> usize`
