Rust symbols can become quite long due to namespacing introduced
by modules, types, traits, generics, etc. For instance, for:

    pub mod my_module {
        pub struct MyType;
        pub struct MyGenericType<T>(T);

        pub trait MyTrait {
            fn my_method() -> u32;
        }

        impl MyTrait for MyGenericType<MyType> {
            fn my_method() -> u32 {
                42
            }
        }
    }

generates a symbol of length 96 when using the upcoming v0 mangling scheme:

    _RNvXNtCshGpAVYOtgW1_7example9my_moduleINtB2_13MyGenericTypeNtB2_6MyTypeENtB2_7MyTrait9my_method
For C++ demangling, we have c++filt.

A quick search turned up: https://github.com/luser/rustfilt

but if the v0 mangling scheme is upcoming, I doubt a repo that hasn't
been updated supports an upcoming scheme.  Is there a more official
equivalent?

Do we demangle rust symbols when printing a trace from a warn/panic?
That would be nice.

At the moment, Rust symbols may reach up to 300 in length.
Setting 512 as the maximum seems like a reasonable choice to
keep some headroom.
