This adds based on https://rust-team.pages.debian.net/book/ some
documentation add a generator to package rust crates.

The generator is the same as used by Debian but we don't use the
approach from debcargo-conf as `debcargo cargo` executes the following
steps add once:
- fetch source
- generate orig tarball
- generate debian folder

As this is not compatible with the concepts of bitbake recipes we use
the http fetcher and the by `debcargo` generated debian folder. This
approach is intended to build crates stored in a registry(e.g. crates.io).

The crates package generated by this script should be package upstream
to avoid maintaining them forever.

Crates not in a registry need to manually packaged.

Quirin Gylstorff (3):
  Add script to generate a recipe for cargo.io crates
  Add example of a rust hello world as isar recipe
  user_manual: add rust section
