Description
In https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3/pull/6300 we observed the setuptools-rust doesn't have the equivalent of MATURIN_PEP517_ARGS, so we weren't able to dynamically enable no-std testing.
Would be good to think how this can be done.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the behavior described in PyO3/pyo3#6300 and how MATURIN_PEP517_ARGS enables dynamic configuration. Then trace setuptools-rust's command-line and environment handling to determine a suitable interface for dynamically enabling features, including no-std testing. Done means users can configure feature enabling without editing project configuration.
