This PR adds the initial setup for integrating rust in infer. Currently it calls a rust program that outputs the rust Intermediate Representation (MIR) of a file to analyze, eventually this MIR will be translated to textual for analysis.
The goal will be to detect memory errors in unsafe rust.
Examples of memory errors in rust:
Technical
In infer/lib/rust is the rust program that will translate a rust program to textual.
It requires access to the internal rust compiler crate which are available on nightly builds of rust.
To run this program rustup can be installed https://rustup.rs/ to install the rust language and the rust package manager cargo.
The program is called from infer/src/integration/Rust.ml
