[PATCH v3 03/16] rust: install Rust library sources for target & sdk

From: Harish Sadineni <Harish.Sadineni@windriver.com>

The `make rustavailable` process (1) expects the Rust standard library source files (e.g., `lib.rs`)
to be present in the `library/` directory under `rustlib/src/rust/`.

This patch ensures the required sources are available by:
- Installing the `library/` directory (of size ~50MB) into `${D}${libdir}/rustlib/src/rust` for `target` class,
making them available in them available on target.
- Installing the `library/` directory (of size ~50MB) into `${SDKPATHNATIVE}/usr/lib/rustlib/src/rust` for the
`nativesdk` class, making them available in them available in sdk.
- packaging `${libdir}/rustlib/src/rust` sepearately with `${PN}-src-lib`.

1) See the kernel tree for Documentation/rust/quick-start.rst in the section: Requirements: Building
