cargo should be replaced with cargo-metadata.

Now cargo_metadata has support for deserialize custom package metadata field into struct: https://github.com/oli-obk/cargo_metadata/commit/2137d30de3a4fa17f633c4ca33050f61541a261c

Unfortunately cargo_metadata has dropped a number of fields we use for Gentoo ebuilds with newer versions so I'd still need to use cargo to get all the data.
