Description

It looks like some artifacts from installation are bundled that can probably dropped. Not a huge issue, but might be worth adding to cleanup phases.

* `lib/rustlib/install.log`
* `lib/rustlib/uninstall.sh` probably isn't necessary
* `lib/rustlib/rust-installer-version`
* `lib/rustlib/manifest-*`
* `lib/rustlib/components` (although maybe tooling looks at this?)

Research direction

Start by locating the installation and cleanup configuration that produces lib/rustlib, then inspect how install.log, uninstall.sh, rust-installer-version, manifest-* and components are used. Confirm which artifacts can be removed without affecting tooling, update the cleanup phase, and verify that the resulting bundle contains only required files.
