[PATCH 6.12.y] rust: kbuild: clean output before running `rustdoc`

[Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org>]

`rustdoc` can get confused when generating documentation into a folder
that contains generated files from other `rustdoc` versions.

For instance, running something like:

    rustup default 1.78.0
    make LLVM=1 rustdoc
    rustup default 1.88.0
    make LLVM=1 rustdoc

may generate errors like:

    error: couldn't generate documentation: invalid template: last line expected to start with a comment
      |
      = note: failed to create or modify "./Documentation/output/rust/rustdoc/src-files.js"

Thus just always clean the output folder before generating the
documentation -- we are anyway regenerating it every time the `rustdoc`
target gets called, at least for the time being.
