Declares a Rust toolchain for use.

This is for declaring a custom toolchain, eg. for configuring a particular version of rust or supporting a new platform.

Example:

Suppose the core rust team has ported the compiler to a new target CPU, called cpuX. This support can be used in Bazel by defining a new toolchain definition and declaration:

load('@rules_rust//rust:toolchain.bzl', 'rust_toolchain')

rust_toolchain(
    name = "rust_cpuX_impl",
    binary_ext = "",
    dylib_ext = ".so",
    exec_triple = "cpuX-unknown-linux-gnu",
    rust_doc = "@rust_cpuX//:rustdoc",
    rust_std = "@rust_cpuX//:rust_std",
    rustc = "@rust_cpuX//:rustc",
    rustc_lib = "@rust_cpuX//:rustc_lib",
    staticlib_ext = ".a",
    stdlib_linkflags = ["-lpthread", "-ldl"],
    target_triple = "cpuX-unknown-linux-gnu",
)

toolchain(
    name = "rust_cpuX",
    exec_compatible_with = [
        "@platforms//cpu:cpuX",
        "@platforms//os:linux",
    ],
    target_compatible_with = [
        "@platforms//cpu:cpuX",
        "@platforms//os:linux",
    ],
    toolchain = ":rust_cpuX_impl",
)

Then, either add the label of the toolchain rule to register_toolchains in the WORKSPACE, or pass it to the "--extra_toolchains" flag for Bazel, and it will be used.

See @rules_rust//rust:repositories.bzl for examples of defining the @rust_cpuX repository with the actual binaries and libraries.
