Re: [PATCH RFC 2/3] rust: implement a test balloon via the "varint" subsystem

> Implement a trivial test balloon for our Rust build infrastructure by
> reimplementing the "varint.c" subsystem in Rust. This subsystem is
> chosen because it is trivial to convert and because it doesn't have any

> If support for Rust is enabled, we stop compiling "varint.c" and instead
> compile and use "src/varint.rs".
