Subject: [PATCH 6/6] scripts: generate_rust_analyzer: move sysroot crates
 to sysroot_project

Use rust-analyzer's sysroot_project feature to properly configure
sysroot crates (core, alloc, std, proc_macro). This allows
rust-analyzer to correctly resolve items from the sysroot and
automatically add sysroot crate dependencies to all project crates.

Some sysroot crates use #[path] directives to load files outside of
their directory but still in the sysroot. This is disallowed by
rust-analyzer, so the sysroot crate are not properly loaded. Loading them
using sysroot_project tells rust-analyzer to let them load anything inside
sysroot_src.

The sysroot_project field was added to rust-analyzer in v0.3.2328
(~1.87.0) and is silently ignored by older versions. In that case,
rust-analyzer falls back to loading the sysroot via sysroot_src.
This basically works, but the advantage of using sysroot_project is
that we can make the set of features/cfgs more similar to what the
actual build uses.
