Kbuild and Rust folks: This contains custom definitions of hostprog
bindgen and rust library commands.
These are currently only defined inside the subsystem directory.
Let me know if they should go into scripts/Makefile.host.

Glad to see more Rust host progs :)

Keeping them local may be a bit easier initially to land, I guess
(e.g. no docs), and then we can generalize when needed later.

I'm happy to do the docs etc. I only wanted to avoid doing all that work,
only for it to stay a subsystem-local solution.

Also it would be nice to have a Kconfig symbol, RUSTC_CAN_LINK or similar,
which indicates that the rust compiler can build host programs.

By the way, for consistency with elsewhere, probably we want
`HOSTRUSTLIB` -> `HOSTRUSTC L`. Though I am thinking to remove the `L`
anyway since eventually a lot of code will be "lib".

Ack.
