+/// publishing the crate because the created `Cargo.lock` leads to a modified
+/// workspace, not the `CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR` but the workspace `cargo publish`
+/// created in `./target/package/..`. Therefore we check prior to executing
+/// `cargo metadata` if a `Cargo.lock` file exists and delete it afterwards if
+/// it was created by `cargo metadata`.
