[PATCH] rust: remove useless glib_sys bindings

[PATCH] rust: remove useless glib_sys bindings

[Paolo Bonzini]

From: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan@redhat.com>

The definition of types needed for g_autolist(), g_autoslist(),
g_autoqueue() need the imports for GList, GSList and GQueue
to appear everything.  Rust code is never going to see those,
since they are not used in structs.  Block the types from
appearing in the bindings.
