Description
Rust allows you to choose a start function other than "main", however by default "main" is the start function. There is code prior to invoking the start function to determine what it is. Often this is uninteresting to us, so it would be good to add a flag to optionally remove it from the graph.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the graph construction and command-line or configuration flag handling, then trace how the lang-start component is represented. Done means the new option removes that component when enabled while preserving the current graph by default.
