Subject: [PATCH 11/19] rust: introduce `.clippy.toml`

Some Clippy lints can be configured/tweaked. We will use these knobs to
our advantage in later commits.

This is done via a configuration file, `.clippy.toml` [1]. The file is
currently unstable. This may be a problem in the future, but we can adapt
as needed. In addition, we proposed adding Clippy to the Rust CI's RFL
job [2], so we should be able to catch issues pre-merge.

Thus introduce the file.
