Subject: [PATCH v2 0/6] `RUSTC_VERSION` and re-config/re-build support on compiler change

This series mainly adds support for `CONFIG_RUSTC_VERSION` (which is needed for
other upcoming series) as well as support for rebuilding the kernel when the
Rust compiler version text changes, plus other secondary improvements.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20240808221138.873750-1-ojeda@kernel.org/
v2:

  - Dropped patch #2 "kbuild: rust: make command for `RUSTC_VERSION_TEXT` closer
    to the `CC` one" (Masahiro, Björn).

    In other words, now the `RUSTC_VERSION_TEXT` command is kept as it
    was, without `LC_ALL=1` nor `| head -n1`.

  - Replaced `macros` crate dependency with a comment in the code that `fixdep`
    will find, since we can do it for that one, unlike `core` (Masahiro,
    Nicolas).

  - Added patch (here #5) to add a warning when the Rust compiler used to build
    the kernel differs from the one used to build an out-of-tree module, like
    the C side does (Nicolas).

    If the patch is not wanted, then it can be skipped without much loss, since
    anyway Rust will fail to compile in that case. However, it would be nice to
    have to prevent potentially unexpected situations and to clarify the errors
    that `rustc` would emit later. See the commit message for more details.

  - Rewrapped comment to stay under 80 lines (Nicolas).

  - Picked up a couple tags that could more or less be reasonably taken given
    the changes to v2. Re-runs of tests welcome!

Miguel Ojeda (6):
  kbuild: rust: add `CONFIG_RUSTC_VERSION`
  kbuild: rust: re-run Kconfig if the version text changes
  kbuild: rust: rebuild if the version text changes
  kbuild: rust: replace proc macros dependency on `core.o` with the
    version text
  kbuild: rust: warn if the out-of-tree compiler differs from the kernel
    one
