Steffen Eiden e6add997eb Integrate rust into s390-tools build system

The rust integration into the s390-tools build system consists of the
following steps:

- Add a subdirectory for the rust code.
- Add a Makefile that forwards rust builds to `cargo`.
- Add a `utils` crate for rust code in s390-tools.
- Add rust stuff for dotfiles:
  - gitignore
  - editorconfig
  - codespellrc (while at it, add an ignore file)

With cargo the rust ecosystem has its own build system which also is
responsible to resolve rust dependencies via downloading the dependencies
from (default) crates.io and discover the source files. Therefore, the
Makefile just calls `cargo build` to forward the build to cargo.

If a rust crate does not require external dependencies, users might call
rustc directly.

A simple `make` will build all the rust targets as well (with --release
specified). Also `make install` will work as usual.

A few Makefile configuration variables are introduced for rust/Cargo:
  - HAVE_CARGO (default 1) to toggle the build of rust code using cargo
  - CARGOFLAGS             to add custom cargo flags, e.g. --offline
  - CARGO		   Cargo binary location defaults to
                           $(where cargo)

A new global make target is defined to get the current s390-tools
version:
$ make version
  2.28.0

rust/Makefile also has the `print-rust-targets`  target to print all rust
directories/crates that should be shipped/installed.

Raw Blame History

Release history for s390-tools (MIT version)

v2.xx.x (2023-xx-xx)

For Linux kernel version: 6.x

s390-tools now supports tools written in rust!

Add new tools / libraries:

Changes of existing tools:
- genprotimg: add support for add-secret requests
Bug Fixes:
v2.28.0 (2023-07-11)

For Linux kernel version: 6.4

Changes of existing tools:
- chzcrypt: Support for SE AP pass-through support
- genprotimg: Add support for non-s390x architectures
- lszcrypt: Support for SE AP pass-through support
- zdev: Add support for autoquiesce related sysfs attributes
Bug Fixes:
- ap_tools/ap-check: Handle missing 'matrix' and 'control_domains' attrs
- ap_tools/ap-check: Hold ap config file lock over get attributes
- s390-tools: Fix build for ppc64le
- zdev: Add missing label in the udev-rules
- zdev: Add proper value input for the ZDEV_SITE_ID key

v2.27.0 (2023-05-30)

For Linux kernel version: 6.3

Changes of existing tools:
- s390-tools cross-compile and non-s390x support:
  - pkg-config is now mandatory for the build process
  - Add PKG_CONFIG Makefile variable to select pkg-config program; default pkg-config or $(CROSS_COMPILE)pkg-config if CROSS_COMPILE is set
  - Rename Makefile variable ARCH to HOST_ARCH. HOST_ARCH is the architecture that will run the produced (executable) objects
  - Add the Makefile variable BUILD_ARCH. BUILD_ARCH is the architecture of the build system. For each Makefile variable like CC, LINK, CPP, ... there is a suffixed version of it - e.g. CC_FOR_BUILD. This is useful for cross compiling, and this naming convention is very similar to the Meson convention (see https://mesonbuild.com/Reference-tables.html#environment-variables-per-machine).
