Build Rules

The Android build system (Soong) supports Rust via a number of modules:

Module Type	Description
`rust_binary`	Produces a Rust binary.
`rust_library`	Produces a Rust library, and provides both `rlib` and `dylib` variants.
`rust_ffi`	Produces a Rust C library usable by `cc` modules, and provides both static and shared variants.
`rust_proc_macro`	Produces a `proc-macro` Rust library. These are analogous to compiler plugins.
`rust_test`	Produces a Rust test binary that uses the standard Rust test harness.
`rust_fuzz`	Produces a Rust fuzz binary leveraging `libfuzzer`.
`rust_protobuf`	Generates source and produces a Rust library that provides an interface for a particular protobuf.
`rust_bindgen`	Generates source and produces a Rust library containing Rust bindings to C libraries.

We will look at rust_binary and rust_library next.
